  1. 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…

  2. Item search by number and the F7 key showing negative numbers.

    Using the F7 key is very handy for checking stock.
    It would also be nice to see negative values also.

  3. 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.

  4. CSV Export of Historical Item Price Changes

    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.

  5. Extract an indented Bill of Material from Elliott to CSV

    I see that there's a CSV option for single level Bill of Material but not for indented. Is there a way to extract an indented Bill of Material from Elliott to CSV? The output layout will similar as single level Bill of Material but need adding extra columns that includes "Report Line Sequence number" to keep whole report can be restored to original sequence after sorting from different way on spreadsheet. Plus, fields of "Stock Flag", "Control Flag" and "P/M Code.

  6. Show Item on stock Status if Qty On-Order/Allocated > 0 and Qty On-Hand = 0

    In Stock status Report, if user answer Y to field 8 (Exclude Zero Qty Items), and Qty On-Hand is zero, Item is not on the report, even if Qty Allocated or Qty On-Order are > 0. I suggest to allow user to see these items by adding a prompt on the Stock status screen or adding a Global setup field.

  7. Import Shipment Tracking Number to Elliott through CSV File

    It has been suggested that Elliott should support importing of shipment tracking number for sales order through CSV File. The CSV file should contain the following fields:
    Order# String Sample 123456 (pad leading zero if numeric)
    Package# String Sample 1
    Tracking# String Sample 1Z92752E0300860395
    Weight String Sample 1.00
    Freight Amount String Sample 15.23
    Ship Via String Sample UPS Ground
    Ship Date/Time String Sample 8/23/2017 1:00:00PM
    Reference String Sample 123456789

    Not all fields need to be provided. Only the Order# and Tracking# is necessary. If the Package# is not provided, then it is assume 1. If the weight is not provided,…

  8. Allow to use wild card file name and multiple path when attaching documents in Elliott Post Office

    Elliott allows to use a variable on the Attach... field when sending a Post Office email. For example the variable InvNo will automatically attach a document with the invoice number as the file name. This is NICE. I suggest to allow multiple path in case the documents are in different folders and to allow wildcard. So instead of $InvNo$.pdf I can define $InvNo$.. For example if the invoice number is 123456, Elliott will attach 123456.DOC, 123456A.PDF etc. In addition user should be able to define different path so it can be something like M:\ELLIOTT8\DOC1\$InvNo$., M:\ELLIOTT8\DOC2\$InvNo$.

  9. Remembering Default for Aging Report

    We would like to know if it would be possible to "remember" the parameter for the Aging Report field 1 to either D or S, instead of having to change the parameter every time. We always run the aging report by detail and the default always comes up as an S for Summary.

  10. Item Generic Search to Show Item Quantity Greater than Zero Only

    It is suggested that in item generic search, we have the option to show item quantity per global setup. It is suggested that, we need to allow user to press a flag that only show those item quantity is greater than zero so customer service rep can focus on those item that we have on-stock.

    Currently, the bottom line of the item generic search can as following:
    Up, Dn, PgDn, PgUp, F4=Detail
    Up, Dn, PgDn, PgUp, RETURN To Select
    Up, Dn, PgDn, PgUp, F4=Detail F5=Wish List
    Up, Dn, PgDn, PgUp, F1/F2=Next/Prev Loc F3=Setup F4=Detail
    Up Dn PgUp/Dn F1/F2=Next/Prev Loc F3=Setup…

  11. Support COP Order Inquiry with Revision Info like PO Inquiry

    It is really hand to have the below PO Revision info.
    Can you please reconsider you view point on offering this with COP Quotes or COP orders or both? Also wish there was some flag that could show that the quote has been released or the order has been released by the sales person.

  12. Add F1 and F2 (already taken) to scroll forward and backward on Stock Status Inquiry

    When doing Stock status Inquiry user might want to browse through the items. Now user has to escape out and enter the next item number. I suggest to add F1 to scroll forward. I was thinking about F2 to scroll backward but as F2 is already used another F key might be required.

  13. Allow Print One Invoice to Print Duplicate Invoices for Order Not Posted

    There is no elegant way to print a duplicate invoice for an order that is not yet posted. Printers sometimes have issues or some other printing errors can occur while printing an invoice. Bad toner, bad printout, etc... If the invoice does not physically print there are only 2 options to get the invoice printed that I know of.

    1. Print a duplicate invoice using Print Invoices. This can be done, but will also lock all users from printing invoices if the user does not complete the task quickly enough. This options is not good for users not skilled in Elliott…

  14. Allow Deferred Processing for Post Office

    Scheduling Post Office activities will be an excellent tool. For example, running the Printing Order Acknowledgement with Post Office every hour automatically using the Deferred Processing. Now it has to be done manually. When having intensive order entry operation, printing / emailing an immediate order acknowledgement slows down the operation and this has to be done in batch mode.

  15. Vendor AP Account

    Similar to field 25 on the Customer File maintenance, it will be nice to have an A/P General ledger account. Then in field 15 on the transaction file, default to the Vendor A/P Account. Similarly, field 11 on the PO Invoice screen will default to the Vendor A/P account as well.

    CSV Support has been added to the single and multi-bin versions of the Update Edit List and the Variance Report By Item/Warehouse. The CSV file does not include serial number information but includes any comments if there is a serial number mismatch that will prevent a tag from posting. This change will be available in the next Elliott release. See http://support.elliott.com/knowledgebase/articles/1865605-feature-added-csv-support-to-the-physical-count for more information.

  17. 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…

  18. 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.

  19. 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.

  20. 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…
