  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 6: Item Description 1 & 2
    Field 7: Product Category
    Field 8: Qty Order
    Field 9: Qty To Ship
    Field 10: Qty Back Order

  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.…

  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.

  8. Mass Backorder Trial Fill

    Would it be possible to change the Cut-off Date to be more of a
    flexible item for deferred processing?
    It would be nice to offer system date as an option or possibly
    system date + "x" number of days

  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…

  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…

  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…

  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…

  14. 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.

  15. Give User Warning Message For Void Check with Multiple Checks

    When user try to void check(s), in many case, user has typo error at check number range (Starting Check No / Ending Check No) where they have to restore data to correct.

    Suggest to pop-up warning message if check range more than one check then system shows number of checks will be voided. User should confirm to answer "Yes". Default value it "No".

  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.

  19. 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.

  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…
