  1. When splitting a Lot line in COP, insert the new line instead of adding a line at the end

    When doing Billing or Shipping Confirmation, on a Lot line and the selected lot doesn't have enough quantity, Elliott creates a new line after all the existing lines. This makes the lots' selection very cumbersome as the user has to "jump" between the items according to the sequence of the lines. If user can Insert a new line (this can be a Global setup questions), all the lines for a specific item will be grouped together, which will make the lot selection by item easier.

  2. In Vendor Inquiry Summary drill down to the Cash Account used to pay the voucher

    Currently Elliott has a F2 function to show multiple checks that paid a voucher. But user cannot see the cash account used. This is critical if there are multiple cash accounts or if multiple "deposit" accounts are used for pre-paid. I suggest to display the cash account near the check and use the F2 function to show the bank account in case of one check (as the screen has no room).

  3. Add Support for Multiple SMTP Servers

    Right now, you can specify 1 SMTP server on the company level and 1 SMTP server on the user level. A user can be assigned to send emails though either, but not both.

    I propose adding the ability to specify multiple SMTP servers on the company level.

    Then, the ability should be added when creating EVENTS to allow the selection of one of the multiple SMTP servers if an email event is being created.

    You should also be able to choose while SMTP server Mass Email would use, while still maintaining the override on the user level.

    This would allow…

  4. Recalculate Total Commission on order Header (Billing Screen) when line commission is changed to zero,

    Currently if COP Order line commission is changed to zero in CHANGE mode and the 3rd Billing screen was accessed before, the zero commission of the line is NOT part of the recalculated commission of the Header that is shown on the Billing screen. I discussed with Edward as i considered it as a bug, but Edward said that in some situations, users prefer this behavior.

    My idea is to add a flag that if user prefers that total commission will be recalculated and included zero commission lines, it will be done. I consider that as the "normal" behavior.

  6. Always Use Last Cost as PO's Default FOB Cost

    Currently, Elliott decide PO's Default FOB Cost base on the following priority sequence:
    (1) If Vendor Item record exist and set to use "Price Table", then Price Table will be used;
    (2) If PO Setup "20. Default FOB Std Cost On PO's" is set to "Y", then default to Item Std Cost;
    (3) If Vendor Item Record Exist, use the Vendor Item Last Purchase Cost;
    (4) Use Item's Last Cost.

    It had been suggested that we should modify the flag "20. Default FOB Std Cost On PO's ?" to "20. Default PO FOB Cost Method ?" and the possible value…

  9. A Note Type to Put Literal Into The Body of Note As Part of the Note Body Text

    Currently, user is allowed to defined a note type with literal. In the example provided below, we have a note type "S" with literal. When we create a note with note type S, the literal is really not part of the note even though the literal is displayed. What I really like is the ability to define a note type with literal with the option "28. Put Literal in Note Body" The default is "N". But if user set this flag as "Y", then when a note is created, the literal is part of the note body. The main benefit…

  10. Support Location, Product Category and Customer Type to Determine Sales and COGS

    Currently, Elliott allow defining sales and COGS account by location and product category. We are facing with the following complaints:
    (1) User only want to define sales account by product category, not by location. Because of the fix structure, user will have to define all combination of locations and product categories which is a burden.
    (2) Sometime user may miss a combination, as a result the sales and COGS go to the default account causing reconciliation problem. System should make it easier to find potential missing setup problem.
    (3) Some users want to define sales and COGS account by customer…

  12. Defer processing - Using it with system period control and system Date

    Being able to select Starting and Ending date in deferred processing would be a nice tool to have as it is
    Pre-defined. The accounting department runs the same reports every month and only the starting and ending
    Dates change. Does or can this feature be added easily? Also the option of running a report using the system date in
    Deferred processing would be helpful.

  13. Add Job Number to IM/AR/AP distribution files

    Add Job Number, etc. to IM/AR/AP/etc. distribution files (similar to BMDISFIL)

    The new BMDISFIL is a tremendous source of information, containing far more relevant fields from the originating transaction than the other distribution files. Would like to see the other subledger files expanded to include relevant data from the originating transaction, similar to the BMDISFIL, including but not limited to the job number.

  14. Direct Ship Orders

    Our business model is 90% direct ship orders. Right now there is no correlation between the Sales Order and the Purchase Order number which is causing us lots of issues due to the volume of orders we take. I've been told there is nothing on the table to assist with this. One idea given to me is to use the job # field for both the Sales/Purchase Order for a stop gap. That is great, but I have to run a report on the PO side in order to find the Job#. I'd like to be able to query the…

  15. Partially Received Purchase Order Utility

    Currently when receiving a partial shipment against a purchase order we are able to record the receipt and the PO inquiry shows the original order and received quantity correctly. This creates a "back order" quantity due on the PO. Item quantities on order fields show the back orders still open as long as the PO is not closed during receiving.

    Reprinting the PO shows the original item Quantity and extends the amounts based on the original quantity.

    It would be helpful to have a utility to reprint partially received POs showing the back order quantity and the new item extensions.…

  16. Shipment Verification display option of items not scanned

    With orders of over 120 line items it is tedious to check for items not scanned. An option for items not completely filled that includes the bin location and UPC code would be handy.

  18. Allow Changes to a Printed Plus Work Order

    Currently, once a plus production work order is printed no other changes can be made to the work order. If production has not started, users could be able to add material to the work order or change operation information since no material has been issued and no labor has been reported. Also, if the production work order has been started but production has not been reported for the parent item, additional operations could be added to the work order or work order operations that have not been started could be changed.

  19. Shipping Verification and Non-Stock items

    Shipping Verification will force non-stocked items into Box 1, regardless of what box is actually being filled.

    At Mercer Tool, there are many items purchased from an outside source, typically for one-off shipments - that would make no sense to set up as Stocked. Often these are custom made, and are shipped complete as soon as they arrive.

    However, since they are not set up as stocked, shipping verification doesn't work as planned, since all these items will go into Box 1 automatically. Often these items are heavy, and can not all be forced into the same box.

    Please consider…

  20. List Screen Numbers and Field numbers when providing Upgrades

    It is certainly beneficial that when providing upgrade instructions you already list the Global Default Security settings that need to be addressed.

    However locating the appropriate Screen and Field numbers for these settings can be tedious. It would help if we were provided with the Screen and field numbers for each of the settings within the setup instructions instead of just making them a bullet (o).
