  1. 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?

  3. 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.…

  4. 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.

  5. Warning if entering a Credit memo for a fully paid invoice

    User can enter a new Credit Memo (using COP, Order Entry, Change F4) when the invoice is fully paid or has another Credit memo that made the invoice a zero balance. I suggest to give the user a warning if this is the case to prevent a duplicate CM. I can see the difficulty to do it in a simple COP, Order Entry Add, when adding a CM, but should be handle in Change, F4 to create a CM against the invoice.

    Attribute screen - allow keyboard entry in date fields.

  7. A Report Can Defer That Shows Elliott Users & Optional Email Them

    User should log out of Elliott at night time to avoid problems next day. this is especially an issue at Terminal Server environment. Therefore, it is suggested that we should develop a report for user list that can be run in defer processing. The report can also optionally email to the users that are still in Elliott if their email address is available.

    Let us know if you think such a report is valuable.

  8. wild card search

    It would be very beneficial to have a wild card search. Example: When searching in inventory we only have the benefits of searching the beginning of the description, part number, substitute item,etc. It would be very helpful to put a word in and have it search all of the descriptions and item numbers and show all items that have the same string of characters wherever they happen to be.

  9. Allow to reapply a check to the an invoice that was applied to before

    If user made a mistake and wants to apply more money from a check to an invoice that already applied to before Elliott doesn't allow it. The only way to do it is to use the AR Open Item Maintenance with a risk of a user mistake that can change the customer's balance. I suggest to change the Reapply in AR and allow application of a check that was previously applied to an invoice or debit memo.

    Support for the ship to accumulators in the SY12MONS table was added in V7.58.824/8.28.824. Support was also added to the export processor in V8.28.824. A special function to access the ship-to information on file for a customer has been added to V8.2 and will able available in the next Elliott release. See http://support.elliott.com/knowledgebase/articles/1887694-feature-ship-to-special-function-support-in-cust for more information.

  11. 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…

  12. 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.

  13. 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.

  14. 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...

  15. Order Header Ship Date Change Event

    Unless I cannot find it, there is no event that fires when the ship date for an order is changed. This would be very beneficial as this important piece of historical information is not recorded anywhere.

    As we had discussed the reason for this request with Aaron is because currently, when user change the order ship date, even thought that cause the mass update of line item promise date, but system does not update line item audit trail. We now had made a change to create line item audit trail record to address this issue. The update will be available in the next Elliott release.

  16. Bank Book to allow print both Summary and Detail when pressing F1

    When the reconciliation is completed user is prompted to press F1 to complete the process. Elliott then prompts the user to print Summary OR Detail report but not both. The system should allow to print Both and this should be the default (or change the BB Setup for the default as N, D, S, B). Currently all my BB users exit the processing, go to the reports, print both Summary and Detail and then go to the processing to complete the reconciliation by press F1.

  17. 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…

  18. Add Minimum Price Support to Future Price Processing

    We use future price processing extensively. We love the new feature you added for "minimum price" in the item master file. But "minimum price" is not supported in Future Price Processing. We like to update future price with minimum price together. Is that possible?

  19. Blow Through & Flatten Phantom Non-Stock Items When Create BOMP Material or Plus Work Order

    The BOMP (Bill of Materials) often have a challenge to reconcile how engineering and production like to setup the product structure.

    From the engineering point of view, they like to use phantom (non-stock parent) items as a logical module and reference them through out the BOMP product structure setup. When they need to change this logic module, they only need to change the phantom item product structure in a central place. This is much easier for them to manage. If they don't use phantom items, they will need to edit the BOM product structure item by item. So every time,…

  20. Print UPC Code on Invoice

    Currently, UPC Code is one of the item note field which can be printed on the invoice. However, item note filed is reserved for 30 digits. I only want to print the first 12 digits so the UPC code does not encroach into the space of field on the right side. Can you make a change to detect if a particular item note field is a UPC code code and set the size accordingly.

    completed  ·  AdminEdward M. Kwang - NETcellent System, Inc. (CEO / Founder, NETcellent Systems, Inc.) responded

    Form Maintenance has been changed to determine which item note field is used for the UPC code according to the Additional Search Key option in Global Setup. If an item note field is designated as a UPC code, the field size will be limited to 14 characters in form maintenance. This is to support the printing of GTIN codes stored in the item note field as well as UPC codes.
