Automatic logout Elliott at certain time at night
A user asked the following "I am trying to crack down on the users that don’t log out because it is a real problem here. Most people have complied since my email reminder on Monday about being a good “Elliott citizen”, but I have three computers that aren’t assigned to anyone but rather placed around the production area for the production staff to clock in/out on work orders. Generally the supervisors leave about 5-10 minutes before employees because they arrived early to open up the shop and we are trying to avoid daily OT for them. So there is really…

This project is not trivial. But we think it can be a useful features to prevent users open up files over night that cause backup issue. At the moment, we are placing this as a somewhat low priority item for 8.6. So do not expect an update with this new feature in the near future.
We are evaluating it to allow users to set policy on a workstation by workstation basis for "Auto Logout Time" in Setup area. You could set a workstation to, say, logout at 21:00 every night. The setting will be saved to local registry. Hence you need to set this up on a workstation by workstation basis unless you add group policy.

Pick ticket - kit items should include non-stocked components
Currently, printed pick tickets for kit items exclude non-stocked components - resulting in orders being shipped incomplete.
Would like to see pick ticket include non-stocked kit components.

If we should make this change, a global setup flags will be needed in COP -Func -> Pick/Pack Ticket/Ship Label setup. A flag like "51. Print None Stock Items on Pick Ticket?" will be introduced. The default value should be "N' so the existing users will not be affected by this new feature.
My thinking is this flag should apply to both the line items on pick ticket and kit components under the line item. Do you agree?

Search by Customer Item Number
Often times a customer will provide us a list of questions regarding their item number rather than our item numbers, ie special pricing requests.
Currently in order to determine what our item number is we look it up by searching by customer item number in Order entry which is very cumbersome and we run the risk of inadvertently changing the COP order.
I suggest to add the Customer Item Search in Invoice Inquiry by Customer and in Stock Status. If necessary the system could prompt for the customer number

I think the key issue is we should identify customer number first. There's one important feature called "Sales Desk" which is a great tool to interact with customer. You can lookup items in this function. Since the customer number is required as the first step, so it will provide pricing, it can also optionally create an order from the sales desk. You can access sales desk from COP -> Processing -> Sales Desk. Unlike Order Entry, you won't accidental alter an order in Sales Desk. If you have never used it before, you should try it, it might require some setup in Global Setup before you can use it. I suggest to provide the search by customer item number from Sales Desk screen. Pease let me know your thought.

in Elliott 8.6, we are moving toward using Report Desk to replace Export Processor. We can consider add Product Category as a group to UDR Invoice History by item Report.

Add Notes To Export Processor
The ability to export and filter Notes should be added to Export Processor.

This project is declined because to export notes in export processor will result in poor performance because we do not use index in Export Processor. On the other hand, the Report Desk in Elliott 8.6 can be used to print or export notes to CSV or xlsx. So that's a better solution for a generic notes export function.

Order Entry SuperKit processing - allow changes to Cost
Order Entry SuperKit processing - allow changes to Cost
In OE Line Item Entry, when processing a SuperKit, expose COPORDOPTUNIT_COST and allow user option to change.
- See attached for other SuperKit enhancement ideas.

Please look into the direction of using BOMP work order instead of kit item. You may customize BOMP work order components in COP as well.

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.

It is possible to provide a special function to show items not confirmed. If we should do this, then we should also provide a function to show items that’s confirmed. We will review this.

Allow a credit card refund to be processed when processing a credit memo
Instead of having to go to "credit card handle", it would be very helpful if you could process a credit card refund when processing a credit memo.

In addition to the potential complicated programming effort, I think the main issue is security. It is obvious that we don’t want all people who enter a credit memo also perform credit card refund. This may be something we can evaluate again in Elliott V9.
