There's a great feature for tracking material shortage with Elliott Plus Work Order. See the KB article at: http://support.elliott.com/knowledgebase/articles/1185577-feature-create-material-shortage-tracking-with-p

However, sometime even though the shortage materials already received and are used in production, but user may not pay attention and report the materials for the work order and reporting quantity completion with the last operation. This cause the cost calculation incorrectly and may inventory adjustment need to take place later.

It is proposed that we add the following flags to BOMP Global Control:
* Give User Warning When Report Last Operation with Shortage?
Default is "N". If user set to "Y" and when user report quantity complete for the last operation and shortage exist for the work order, a message will be displayed at line 24: "There Are Shortage for This WO. Are You Sure?" The default is "N". User must consciously enter "Y" before this can happen. In addition, we will introduce another BOMP Global Control flag after the above flag:
* Supervisor Password to Allow Complete Last Operation With Shorage.
This field can be blank. If blank, it means there's no supervisor password needed to override. If not blank, then it means supervisor password is needed after user answer "Y" to above warning message.
