1. Do not allow to cancel a PO line that was received but not invoiced.

   I suggest to either send a warning or do not allow to cancel a PO line that was already received but not invoiced. Invoicing process should be completed first.

4. Create an Invoice Line Item Posted Event

   It is suggested that we should create an invoice line item posted event with COP Sales Journal Posting as followings:
   Program: CP0305
   Type: Line Item Posted
   FileName: IMITMFIL
   Field 1: Item Number
   Field 2: Order#
   Field 3: Invoice#
   Field 4: Customer#
   Field 5: Location
   Field 6: Item Description 1 & 2
   Field 7: Product Category
   Field 8: Qty Order
   Field 9: Qty To Ship
   Field 10: Qty Back Order

   One example to use this event is user can choose to receive email when Qty Back Order > 0. This can serve as a back order report to remind planner for replenishment. Another example can be Qty Order > 0, Qty to Ship =0, Qty BO = 0, then this is a close out line items. Maybe we should notifiy customer about this close out (or cancel) event.

5. Prevent Deleting Customer with History

   When you delete a customer, Elliott will prevent the deletion of that customer if records exist in AR open item. Since some Elliott users may choose to purge AR open items to AR open items history, so this protection will not work and customer can be accidentally deleted. In some case, a lot of notes and attributes for that customers are also deleted.

   It is suggested that we should have additional check:
   1. When check against AR open items, we also check against AR open items history.
   2. We should check COP open order if COP module is in used.
   3. We should check COP recurring order if COP module is in used.
   4. We should check COP invoice history and invoice history archive tables if COP modules is in used.

6. Warehouse Location in Fill Back Orders default

   Automatic Fill Back order should remember the Warehouse location used in the first entry and default to that location in all subsequent entries. This would create less keyboard entry and greatly speed up the process.

7. Support HTML Version of Shipment Acknowledgement Email

   The current Shipment Acknowledgement Email is a text version. Since in Elliott 8.6, it already supports the HTML version of the order acknowledgement, it is suggested that we should also support the HTML version of Shipment Acknowledgement Email.

9. WO Plus - Allow to add a new material with zero quantity and have the system creates allocation to the new product

   One excellent feature that was added to the Work Order Plus was the feature to allow allocation for components that are not available. NOT as the original design that assumed that if the quantity needed is 10 and you used 9, then the allocation to the remaining 1 is released, now user can decide to keep the unreported quantity as allocated and use it later.
   In the attached screen there is a situation where user wants to add an item that is not on the original Bill of material. Elliott allows that but does NOT allow to report 0.
   
   I suggest to allow to add an item with Qty = 0. As a result the required item is now on the production order and the quantity is allocated for this production order. If you think of a different way to achieve it, it should be fine.

10. Do Not Allow to Avoid AP Check if It Is Already Reconciled

    Currently, in Accounts Payable, Processing, Void Checks After Posting, system allow voiding an AP check even if that check is already reconciled.

    It is suggested that we should not allow this to happen. So we suggest to add the following Global Setup flag to AP Global Control:
    Allow Voiding Reconciled AP Check?
    The possible value is "Y" and "N". Default is "N". When a user try to void an AP check that has already been reconciled, system will now print proper error message in the void journal to indicate so without actually voiding it.

    If user had determine a mistake was made at time of AP check reconciliation and we should allow void anyway, user can go ahead change the global setup flag to "Y" and proceed with voiding the reconcile AP check.

    Proper warning message should be displayed in Global setup when user change the value to "Y". Also, during AP void check user interface, if system detect this global setup flag is set to "Y", a warning message will be given.

11. Add Flexibility to User Defined CSV Column Heading by Supporting Variables

    Currently, the User Defined CSV Export column heading is predefined and is static. Sometimes a CSV layout is defined to compare current month, last month and prior month. For example, if current month is December, last month is November, prior month is October. In the layout, you can specify the month as "CP" = Current Period, LP=Last Period, PP=Prior Period. But You can't put December, November and October as the column headings, since next month the column headings will change. Therefore, it is proposed we support the following variables in the column heading:
    * <MON>: The three digits month like Jan, Feb, Mar...etc.
    * <MONTH>: The full month name like January, February....etc.
    * <MM>: Two digits month like 01, 02...,11, 12.
    * <YR>: The two digit year.
    * <YEAR>: The 4 digit year.
    * <TODAY>: System date in MM/DD/YY format.

    These variables must be in upper case and can be combined with other constant or variables. If the column heading has any characters other than the above variables, the variable will be replaced by the appropriate "To" period month or year value.

    If the "From" and "To" dates are the same, only one value will appear in the column heading. Ex: "<MONTH>, <YEAR>" would become November, 2020

    If the "From" and "To dates are not the same, the column heading will show both dates. Ex: "<MON>/<YR> to " would become Sep/20 to Nov/20

    Keep in mind that the maximum column heading in layout maintenance is 17 digits. You must define the heading including variables with less than 17 digits. It is not an issue If the translated result from variables yields a heading longer than 17 digits since the actual CSV heading has no limit.

    In the column heading, we will offer "F7=Help with Variables" option which will display a window of the possible variables and how to combine them. Nothing will return back from F7.

    In the attached example, the column heading of the following in December 2020 would be:
    * Column 1: <TODAY> Item#
    * Column 13: <MON> <YEAR>
    * Column 14: <MON> <YEAR>
    * Column 15: YTD <YEAR>
    will become like:
    * Column 1: 12/01/20 Item#
    * Column 13: Dec 2020
    * Column 14: Nov 2020
    * Column 15: YTD 2020

    The variable <TODAY> in the column heading is used to indicate the date when the CSV is created. But since we don't want to waste a column for that, we can put it in column 1 with item#. In theory, you can also make column 1 a constant column with no value and use <TODAY> in the column heading to display the heading as system date.

    It is possible that a variable value can't be rendered. In that case, the variable will be kept as it is and display in the heading.

12. Suppress Check Printing If ACH

    We are using Elliott to generate AP ACH files that we upload to the bank. For that check run, we would like to have the ability to suppress the printer feature instead of having to print those out to paper. We have piles of "checks" that were printed to paper for those electronic AP checks.

13. Populate Order Freight Account Even if Freight Amount Is Zero

    In Order Entry billing screen, if the freight amount is zero, then the order freight account is blank by default. In some situation, external application like Starship (a third pparty shipping manifest system) can write freight amount back to Elliott order header field. It has no logic to update the order freight account.

    As a result, when you bring up order billing screen, you can see there's a freight amount, but there's no freight account associate with it which look odd. However, this is more an aesthetic issue because during COP Sales Journal for posting the invoice, system will see the freight account is blank, then system will find the proper freight account and use that for posting. So this is not an error condition.

    So it is suggested that during order entry, even if the order freight amount is zero, Elliott will still populate the order freight account anyway to prevent the aesthetic issue when Starship perform freight back to Elliott order freight amount field.

16. Print Order Acknowledgement Eliminate Address Information

    When Printing Order Acknowledgement (Not Laser), user is prompted to enter Starting and Ending Order (OK), Starting and Ending Date (OK) and additional 4 lines of Correspondence and 1 line of Phone # that to my opinion are not necessary. I suggest to eliminate these lines or to add a global setup that will do it. I would leave the Order Type and consider to add "Print Duplicate?" question.

18. Default COP Ship To SLM to blank

    When adding a new Ship To the system defaults the Ship To SLM to the Customer File SLM. Many users want the default to be blank (which mean "default to the Customer File SLM") so when the SLM is changed there is no need to check the Ship To. I feel that the majority of the users prefer "blank" so I suggest that the default will be "blank: but user can change to a specific SLM.

    It is my understanding that if item price changes are done through Future Price Maintenance or Mass Import, there is not an audit trail that can be exported to see historical data of changes over a period of time. This would be helpful by item number or by Product Category over a specified range of time.

20. Stop Multiple Users From Running Sales Order Import at the same time

    If multiple users run sales order import at the same time as another user or a scheduled deferred processing job they will often lock up one another or the deferred processing job will lock and need to be reset.

    There should be a way to avoid the lockups.

    Straight from the man himself:

    I think there’s a few areas we can look into:
    (1) We need to have a mechanism for the defer processing not to lock up and just skip the job with printing something like “Sales Order Import Skipped Due to CPIMPHDR work file is in used by other users” on the report.

    (2) We need to check when sales order import close the work files. We probably should close the work files in the beginning of the closing-procedure paragraph, before closing the printers. I said this because it seems USER is hugging this CPIMPHDR file for a long time. Probably he is just looking at the import result on the screen. If we close CPIMP*.BTR files before displaying the report on the screen, then this issue will less likely to happen.

    If multiple users run sales order import at the same time as another user or a scheduled deferred processing job they will often lock up one another or the deferred processing job will lock and need to be reset.

    The change for (1) was completed. The new logic is that if there are two users (including defer processing) trying to perform sales order import at the same time, the 2nd user will get proper message without file accessing error and thus stop the defer processing.
