  2. Email Credit Card Receipt upon Credit Card Charges in Elliott

    It will be nice to email user the credit card receipt upon the following type of credit card transactions:

    Sales, Refund, Complete, Force, Void

    There's no need for Pre-authorization. This feature need to be turned on through global setup in the on-line credit card processing area because not all Elliott users necessary want this feature. The default value is "N". The user who will receive the credit card receipt is determined as followings:
    (1) From Sales Desk, the primary contacts on the ship-to or customers.
    (2) From Order Entry Billing screen, the primary contacts on the order, if not, the…

  3. Prevent Excel Drop Leading Zeroes in CSV Item Number Field

    When I export Elliott's Item Number to CSV through either Export Processor, or Elliott provided reports with CSV export option, the leading zeroes will be dropped when I open it with Excel. For example, item number 0100, when open the CSV in Excel, it is displayed as 100. I found the following article that can address this issue:

    https://superuser.com/questions/330291/how-to-stop-excel-from-auto-formatting-and-making-it-work-like-a-number-crunchin

    This article suggest instead of exporting item number 0100 in the CSV as "0100", we can add a equal sign "=" in the front to make it ="0100", this way, Excel will preserve the leading zero.

  4. Add Ability to Defer Purging COP Line Item Audit Trial Information

    Add the ability to enter a fuzzy date to the Purge Line Item Audit file tool. For Example, the ability to specify a number of days back from the current date to act as the cutoff date.

    This way, we can choose to always keep a specified amount of days line item audit data and it will be purged automatically in deferred processing.

  5. Access the Payment Window from the Order or Invoice Inquiry Screen

    Is this new feature for viewing only or can you enter payment information as well once an order is Billed, Invoiced, or Posted?

    If for more than viewing, do you have an article on this? I couldn't find anything more than it being listed on updates in 8.2

  7. Running Order Edit List based on Qty Ordered

    When running List, Edit List from COP Order Entry there is no option to run the report based on "qty ordered" instead of "qty to ship". Companies that default the "qty to ship" to zero get misleading information, on the total value of the opened orders.

    The order total area for the order detail and the summary total page have been changed to show the Order Amount, the Cost, Margin and Margin Percentage (if the user is allowed to see cost information) based on the quantity ordered for “O” and “I” type orders. See http://support.elliott.com/knowledgebase/articles/1834066-feature-order-edit-list-with-order-totals-includ for more information on the changes made to the report.

  8. Allow Page Up when search a GL Account By Name

    When using F8 to search GL Account by account name and entering the starting letters or letter Elliott doesn't allow Pg Up before the starting letter. This is not the behavior when doing Customer, Vendor or Item by name or description. This gives the user less functionality, User should be able to Page Up regardless the characters entered in the search field.

  9. Log All Activity Performed in Re-Apply Cr/Dr Memos Function

    Currently, there is no posting, events, logging or audit trail related to the Re-Apply Cr/Dr Memos functionality. This makes it difficult to figure out why something was reapplied or changed and who did it. In a small environment one user could be in charge of all re-applies, but in a larger organization this isn't feasible to get all of the work done.

    I suggest a log file be created that logs all changes made through the function with the date/time, user and workstation information.

  10. Mass Update Customer Csv Import

    The Customer/eContact Import Utility is designed more toward adding customers or eContacts. It does not work as well as a generic tool to update existing customer fields. Therefore, it is suggested that we should have a generic utility to mass update customer by CSV to support the following fields: Salesman, Collector, Territory, Location, Customer Type, Ship via, Terms, Ship to Days, Freight Pay Code, UPS Zone, Credit Rating, Credit Limit, Comment 1 & 2, Form#, Customer Note 1 - 5, User Amount, User Date.

  11. Create number of Shipping Labels based on Customer Item pack size

    When creating shipping labels, the number of labels created should first look at the customer item pack size and then default to the item file pack size. If there's a shipment for 20, with the item pack size being 4 and customer pack size being 10, we want 2 labels to print, not 5.

  12. Adding Additional Columns and CSV Export for Commission Report

    1. Currently Commission Due Report provides basic information. Salesman time to time request and verify extra information. It will be very helpful to add Commission%, Share%, Full-Sales_Amount, specially there are multiple salesmen share one order.
    2. CSV Export feature will help to review and audit report.

  13. Post Labor and Overhead Transactions as they are captured not only when quantities are reported.

    Labor and overhead are only being posted from BoM when a quantity is reported. For example if a worker is working on building 1 machine for 5 days, every day he reports 0 completed until the 5th day when he completes it. The first 4 days, nothing comes to the GL for Labor or Overhead. On the 5th day when the 1 is completed, ALL the labor and overhead goes to that one day. The amount of labor should show up every day rather than all in 1 time.

  14. WOP - keep qty allocated for shortage items

    When a "Pick Kit" operation is not fully satisfied (for example, qty needed for a component is 12 and qty of 9 was reported as pulled), Elliott assumes that only 9 are needed and release the remaining 3 allocated. I understand that there is a situation that there is no need for the remaining 3 and in this case the allocation should be released. My experience shows that in all the scenarios that I have been involved with, the allocation must remain. I am using a "shortage report" that Roger developed but the ATP is wrong and the purchasing decisions…

  15. Allow to Edit Certain Customer Information from Order Entry

    One of the common issue is when sales rep is taking order from customer, they like to have to opportunity to update customer address and phone. We don't want to give salesman the right to change customer which then they can change other sensitive fields like Salesman ID for the customer. So it will be ideal if we can give salesman the right to change customer in a limited way, like changing the address, contact, phone number...etc.

    Currently, there is such a feature in Sales Desk, where after user enter the customer number, they can press F5=Option and choose to…

  16. Add an Event that Fires when a Purchase Order is entered in Purchase Order Processing

    There is currently no event that fires when a purchase order is entered in Purchase Order Processing. This would be a very useful to:

    • alert users when PO's are entered for certain vendors via email
    • provide message boxes with special instructions for certain vendors or PO types
    • warn users if something needs to be done on a vendor account before a PO is entered
    • alert users when certain PO locations are entered

    etc...

  17. It would be nice to be able to page up/down when viewing attributes.

    Currently, when you view an attribute, you have to close it, arrow up/down to highlight the next one, open it, view, close, arrow up/down to next one, open it, etc. You can page up/down when you have notes open, so I would assume the attributes could work the same way.

  19. Prevent Invalid Serial Number from Receiving to Elliott

    Sometime either the manufacture bar code or our bar code scanner is not perfect. As a result, we received invalid serial number to our inventory which we do not know until when we try to sell it.

    I like to propose a logic to filtering out these invalid serial number at time of PO receiving. For example, we can define the valid range of serial number as 0 - 9, A-B, or maybe some special symbol like "-" or ".". If the serial number contains characters other that these symbol, we will reject it at time of PO receiving. This…

  20. Support GTIN base on two different UPC codes

    GTIN (Global Trading Item Number) is a 14 digits UPC code with the package code as the first digits + 13 digits UPC code. For 12 digits UPC code, you will just add a leading zero to make it 13 digits. The package code will represent the number of inner box in a case. Typically, the inner box will be encoded with a UPC code (12 or 13 digits), and the outside box will be encoded with a GTIN (14 digits) base on the same UPC code.

    But we have situation that our vendor does not implement GTIN correctly. Instead…
