  1. Please add logging to track hold-trx activity

    Please add logging to track hold-trx activity or add separate permissions for access to add, change, delete - especially for other users' hold-trx.
    Some type of enhanced security would be beneficial in this area.

  2. Add a Trading Partner Flag to Prevent Adding Line Items to EDI Order

    In many situations, it can be problematic when user add line items to an existing EDI orders that come through the Sales Order import. This is because the line items can have attributes, sometimes notes that are needed to send back with the outgoing EDI document (e.g. 856, 810).

    On the other hand, in some exception scenario, certain trading partners may place phone orders and require to send 810 invoice EDI document.

    To handle this, we should add an EDI partner flag "Prevent Adding Line Items for EDI Orders?" The default is "Y". But with some EDI partners who place…

  3. Check if Work Order Operation Has Shortage Before Allowing to Close the Operation

    A user reported a scenario that they have been picking parts real time and creating shortage reports. However, they discovered that some of the work orders were getting closed without OP10 being complete. The allocation goes away but inventory isn't reduced for any short parts. In a perfect world they would be caught up with their inventory transactions, and user should check any shortage components before complete last operation.

    So it is suggested that Elliott should check if the work order operation has any shortage and stop the work order from close OP20 before OP10 parts are complete.

  4. PO Inquiry Function Key to Go Back Page

    In the PO Inquiry screen, F1 allows you to go to next screen but there is not an F2 (or other option) to go BACK to prior page. This would be helpful when searching records.

  5. 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?

  6. Show total Lot Quantities on Serial Lot Stock Status Report

    I think it will be nice to show the total quantity on the Serial Lot Stock status. It is helpful information. Also, it is easier to analyze the warning in case the total lot quantity is not the same as the stock status. In the case there is a warning that the Lot quantity is not the same as the stock status, show the stock status quantity.

  7. Provide Ability to Send Text Messages

    Some people respond better to text messages than emails. The ability for Elliott to post text messages (to a cell phone number) might be useful in the following scenarios:
    1. It could be used in two-step login verification in the future.
    2. The User List could be enhanced to manually send a text to a logged in user that you do not have the cell number for on your phone.
    3. An event could trigger a text to the subscriber's cell number, for example if a record is locked and preventing access.
    There may be other useful scenarios.

    At least…

  8. Reconcile Inventory received Not Invoice (Accrual) Account.

    Currently it is either extremely difficult or impossible to reconcile the received Not Invoice account. On the GL reference field Elliott displays D# followed by space and the receiving document number. Then another space "Itm#" and the item number. This is basically meaningless for reconciliation purpose. Users really dont care about the receiving document number. I suggest to replace the first 10 characters ("D# 123456 " With PO number (6 characters, "-" and the line number. We are losing the space before the "Itm#" literal but this is okay. This will allow easy reconciliation against the PO receiving Audit trail.…

  9. 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.

  10. COP Order Inquiry should show payment details including GL account

    When COP Order is entered with an amount paid in the order totals screen we are able to enter the amount paid, Check No, Check Date and Cash account. However, after an order is invoiced this information cannot be retrieved. The information does not show in the Totals screen nor in the F2 Payments Screen. It should be available in COP order inquiry Totals or in the Payments Screen.

    This would make it much easier to determine which GL account payment has been posted to.

  11. Support UDR Sales History Trx Edit List Reports in Elliott 8.6

    In COP -> Processing -> Sales History Trx Processing -> Reports -> Edit List, we currently do not support Report Desk. We are here proposing to add UDR support for Sales History Trx Edit List. One of the main consideration is CPHSTTRX table primary key begin with Invoice Date. Most of the sales history report are limited to a particular date range. Therefore, all sales history report will have a date range. Using CPHSTTRX table as the primary table for sales analysis will result in best performance. I suggest we also join to the following tables:

  13. Allow Printing of Zero ($0) Dollars Check to Close Voucher & Credit Memo

    A scenario was brought up that in AP module, there's a voucher of $10,000 and a credit memo of $10,000 for a vendor. We currently does not have activities with this vendor. But we like to close out these two transaction so they don't show as open. It is suggested that if we select these two transactions for payment. The total payment amount would be zero. We currently do not allow printing AP check of $0 for a vendor. We should consider lift this restriction. So once the check is printed and posted, the voucher and credit memo will both…

  14. Back order Audit Trail Report csv expot

    We use the Backorder audit trail report to determine what orders are ready to be picked. However the report is printed in order by item instead of order-no.

    Add an option to export to csv file so it can easily be sorted.

  15. Add PR Distribution Report to User Purge Control

    PR Distribution Report allow purge. But the purge is not controllable under Global Setup -> System -> User Purge Control.

  17. Ability to import batch of AP Manual Checks assigning check # by Voucher instead of by Vendor

    Currently when importing a batch of AP transactions with manual checks, if there are multiple transactions/vouchers with the same vendor number, the system will assign one manual check number to all vouchers with the same vendor number. Would like to be able to import and assign manual check numbers by voucher.

    This is useful in the scenario when we have a TPA writing checks on a separate bank account that is reconciled within Elliott but there is not a need to track vendor specific AP information.

  18. Order inquiry History file

    Is it possible to copy and order from the Order inquiry History file?

    This would be important because if you purge data from Order Inquiry
    to the Order inquiry History file you will not longer have access to
    be able to copy old quotes/orders. Please consider supporting this idea
    as an improvement for all users.

  19. Print Line Item Case Quantities on Packing List Form

    Many customer want to know how many cases of each line item are shipping but that detail is not printed on the packing list.

    Through Global setup we can already print the total number of cases on a packing list. Ship verification already gathers the case quantity information.

    Since Ship Verification prompts the user to print the packing list it would be extremely helpful to print the case information. Case quantity could print in the "QTY Shipped" column below the value for each and the UOM "Case" could print below the literal "EA" value.

  20. Synchronizing Item Description On Open Orders When Description Changes

    Similar to how customer names synchronize to open orders when they are changed, we would love to see item descriptions have the same behavior. Occasionally, we have a large number of orders that are either in the warehouse or on back order and have the need to change the product description. This could be due to a change from a manufacturer once an item comes in or as simple as some information that is discovered to be wrong or has a typo on there. A prompt when changing the item description in Item File Maintenance asking if we would like…
