Support AP ACH Processing
We recently introduced AR ACH Processing feature. Now we like to know from you if anyone is interested in AP ACH Processing. The idea is instead of printing AP check, for vendors who is flagged to pay by ACH, then system print A/P check, in stead of print the paper check, system will create NACHA file to pay electronically.
Please let us know if you are interested in such a feature and any comments.

We will not implement this solution because there are third party solution. Please see KB article: https://support.elliott.com/knowledgebase/articles/1956208-third-party-ach-payment-software-to-support-elliot

QR Code capabilities.
Be able to print and use QR codes in all forms and on items were bar codes are currently being used. Pretty sure it scanners can relay information from a QR to Elliott but would like to have the ability to use barcodes or QR codes.
Couple reasons for this is: 1) we have small items and the QR code works better for labeling than bar code. 2) QR code can hold much more data than bar codes.4 votesdeclined ·AdminEdward M. Kwang - NETcellent System, Inc.

Scanning QR codes is a function of the scanner. I don’t believe this is an issue. For example, at Netcellent, we implement QR codes for each employee to scan in and out of the office on Elliott time card. As for printing of QR codes, it is supported by Bartender software.

Add the ability to upload CSV file to Promo Desk.
It's very tedious and prone to errors when manually entering all the item #'s. It would be helpful to be able to upload a list of items to a batch in promo desk.

AP Transaction Processing - Add distribution level reference
AP Transaction Processing - Add distribution level reference
Currently, AP Transaction Processing allows the entry of a Voucher Reference, which ultimately carries through to APDSTHST.APDSTHSTVOUCHERREF for every distribution made against that voucher.
Propose adding a distribution level reference, allowing a unique reference to be added for each distribution made against a voucher.
Add APTRXDST.NEWAPDISTREF
Add APDSTHST.APDSTHSTDIST_REF
Add both references to resultant APDISFIL record.Expand AP Invoice Import Utility Detail Record Layout to include DIST_REF.
This is particularly useful when processing vouchers for credit card statements - which often contain a variety of charges…

Bring Item Note Even if Field 4 on Global Setup is L
The user needs this feature to see Item Notes while creating an order. Currently if the Note Global setup is L in field 4, the item notes are not copied and the user cannot see them. User must open another window to see the Notes of the Item. I think this should be the setup or at least have an option to do that. I in field 4 is not a good solution because user wants to add Order Line Notes and not keep them on the Item permanently.

Change F8 Customer Search to find by the Sort Name and Corresp Name
When using the F8 Customer Search By Name, it would be great if it searched both the Sort Name and Corresp Name at the same time. That way, it will find the account you are looking for using either. I am not sure how the index is created to perform the search, but when building it you could exclude any Corresp Names in the index that are exactly like the Sort Name. That way, it would limit the amount of duplicate accounts that show up in the result window. Having this ability would take some confusion out of finding accounts,…

COP Order Entry Line - Allow to see stock status in all locations.
Currently in COP, Order Entry, Line Item screen when user is in field 2 - Qty Order, there is an option to use F3 - stock status, but the Stock status is ONLY for the order location. I suggest to add F4 to show Stock status in all locations. This can help the order entry person to make a decision about centering the quantity. Maybe a Global setup option can be either F4 for stock status for all locations should be presented in case companies don't want to show other locations.

The desired feature can already be accomplished with the following procedure: (1) Go to Global Setup → Dist → I/M Global Control, Screen 2, change flag “17. Show All Loc When Drill To Stock Status Inq” to “Y”; (2) In order entry, line item scree, after entering the item number, user can press F3 to drill down to stock status inquiry.

Save Customer or Item Record When Change Page
The new phantom locking feature does not lock customer or item in customer or item file change mode. Since both customer and item has 3 pages of data, sometime a user may change a field on the first screen, and go to second screen to change something further, the record do not get saved until past the 3rd page. If there's a conflict, many changes to the record may be lost. It would be nice if the system can save the record as user change from page to page, without waiting to the end. This way, if there's a conflict,…

It would seems this request break the Elliott convention. That is if a user hit ESC key before the last screen, then the screen is cleared and nothing will be saved.

Change Owner of Tracking Note Instead of Deleting It
This idea is to have the Invoice Post change the owner of the tracking note instead of deleting it or leaving it as a tracking note in the Order Header. The note would still be created for the invoice with the owner STARSHIP so it retains the tracking number lookup, but the note attached to the Order Header would change the owner to the user posting invoices if the invoice is partially posted (backorders exist). This would retain the tracking number, but the order would need a new tracking note to meet the Tracking Number Required criteria.

Customer Favorite Items
Elliott currently supports Wish List items, which are items that customers would like to buy but cannot for some reason at the moment the item is added to the wish list. Its a great reminder system to build sales.
The support for favorite items should also be added. Favorite items are basically a list of items the dealers likes to order. The process to add an item to a dealer's favorite list could be handled in sales desk similar to the wish list items. Any active item could be added to a favorite list.
Users should be able to view…

Allow print bill of material with only item number, first line description, quantity, unit. No flags
We use a 3rd party report writer to create written copies of the bills of materials to be used in the operation manuals for our machinery. these are saved as PDF files and entered using Adobe. We only show the Item Number, first line description, quantity used, and unit type (ie. EA, FT, SET etc.). It would be helpful to have the capability to print this straight out of Elliott. I have attached a page of one of our manuals for an example.

Purge spooled reports automatically
There are some functions that generate spooled reports that don't need to be archived and stored forever. Could you create an option for whether or not to auto-archive reports; or maybe even mark specific reports for deletion after a specified time period?

As stated in previous comment, the proper way to do this is to add entry in EL800U.CFG so the spooled reports that does not need to keep should have its own folder.

Show Net Unit Price on Ack and Quote
Provide a method to show Net Unit Price, instead of Unit Price and Discount %, on the COP Order acknowledgement and quote. With that, we could discontinue using the DYO forms and thus leverage the pfdPostOffice functionality.

A potential solution is to go to Global Setup → COP-Func → Order Line Item Screen → 14. Is Unit Price Before Discount Percent? The default value is “Y”. If you set the flag to “N”, then during order entry when the line item is added, the unit price will apply the order/customer discount percent and the line item discount percent will become zero. This way, the line item unit price is the net unit price. If you want to get the discount percent, it is stored in order header.

To me, this is for the price code, instead of terms code. Shouldn’t the discount per item (Price code), instead of per order (terms code)?

Add a "check form" to pdf post office for use as remittance advice for ACH payments.
This is the only thing I need to automate AP ACH to make it more efficient than printing and mailing checks. I use the vendor type field to identify suppliers set up for ACH, which shows up on the pre-check register, and do separate "check runs". The rest is template driven with the bank.
