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.

Support Copying of COP Transfer Order
While Elliott supports copying regular COP orders, currently Elliott does not allow users to copy COP Transfer order. It had been suggested that Elliott should support it. If you are using COP Transfer order, and you think this is desirable to have. Please let us know.

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…

There's a good possibility we will work on this change.

Change the GL Reference for PO Receiving.
Use the PO#-Rel-Line no,-Item number as the reference instead of the current structure that shows the meaningless PO Doc #.

To implement this feature, we probably should add a global setup flag to determine the GL Reference format with the default as the original format.

Add Product Category and Item Material Type to Item Audit Trail
The Item Product Category and Item Material Cost type are very important and as we know the values effect the GL on the revenues, COGS and Inventory Asset accounts. I suggest to add these fields to the audit trail. An example is a change on the Material type that changes the Stock status by GL account file without changing the GL.

Mass Create or Import for Product Category / Location Account File
As you know, it is necessary to set up the G/L codes for each location
whenever you add a location. Is there a way to do a mass create or import from a CSV file so all the product categories could be imported into a location with the proper G/L codes for sales and COGS?5 votes -
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.

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.

Will it help if we allow you to print check to disk? Also, you might resolve this issue by print to a PDF printer.

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.

Email Locking Event to Offending User
Currently, Elliott allow subscribing a management event by going to Global Setup, Press Detail Event button, and F5 key to insert the LCKEVENT - Record Lock Triggered Per Min. When a record lock over one minute is taking place, this event email can be sent to a specific person, like the admin of the organization.
It is suggested that this email should be sent to the offending user (the user who create the locking condition in the first place). The issue we had was that we know the offending user Windows login, but we do not know the Elliott corresponding…

Label printing option in put-away screen
Is it possible to have a prompt or an option to print labels during the put-away process? Maybe a prompt that would say "Do you need a shelf label for this item" and have the default to N, but if "Y", print the label immediately; or an F2 function to print the label.

Allow Salesman to get customer/order/invoice history of another Salesman.
In the situations where salesman gets control of another salesman customers, the new salesman can't see the old salesman invoices. There might be a situation where the new salesman takes control only on opened orders I suggest to have 3 levels of global security:
1. At Customer, Order and Invoice history. This is what currently Elliott supports. Salesman can see orders and invoices only if they match the Salesman on the customer file and the user security.
2. At Customer/open order level only. In this case salesman can see opened orders belong to the customer even if the salesman is…4 votes -
Enter Salesman 2 and 3 with 0% (Zero Percent)
In order entry or sales desk, currently Elliott systems allow up to 3 salesman. Each salesman will need to have a percentage split with total 3 salesman percentage add up to 100%.
In some situations, it may be desirable to enter salesman 1 with 100% and salesman 2 and 3 with 0% for referencing purpose. In many cases, the commission needs to be handled outside of Elliott. As long as the system can provide the reference of all salesman on the order, the information can then be retrieve by tools like Crystal Report.
Let us know if this is something…

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.

Purchase Order Receiving
When receiving on a purchase order and it asks you if you're sure because qty is over ordered amount. Be able to put in a parameter such as 12% over, otherwise not ask. Or be able to shut off the warning all together. It's an industry standard on many items that it's ok to ship within 10% over of quantity ordered. Almost everything we receive is over so the warning really doesn't help. It would help better if we could set it up to show only at 12%. Then it would be a meaningful warning that would stop me from…

GL Posting Audit Trail
I suggest to add Audit trail on the user that posts GL Journal Entry. I would add the user to the GLTRXFIL and GLJNLHST. Both have room (21 and 20 characters). We already have the logic to do it in the Inventory Transaction Audit Trail. SOX Controls requires that. Public companies must have it and I see the benefit for non-public companies as well.

Drill down to GL Source when doing GL Account Inquiry
The idea is to save the necessary extra steps that are currently required if user wants to get the full journal of a GL entry. Now the user has exit the inquiry, go to Reports and run a Cross reference report with the Cross reference on the inquiry in order to see the full journal. With tis idea user will able to "scroll" yo the trx and then hit F key to get the drill down to the source. Maybe we should do it only for GL sources.

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…3 votes
