Synchronizing Item Description On Open Orders When Description Changes
Similar to how customer names synchronize to open orders when they are changed, we would love to see item descriptions have the same behavior. Occasionally, we have a large number of orders that are either in the warehouse or on back order and have the need to change the product description. This could be due to a change from a manufacturer once an item comes in or as simple as some information that is discovered to be wrong or has a typo on there. A prompt when changing the item description in Item File Maintenance asking if we would like…

Purchase Order Receiving
When receiving on a purchase order and it asks you if you're sure because qty is over ordered amount. Be able to put in a parameter such as 12% over, otherwise not ask. Or be able to shut off the warning all together. It's an industry standard on many items that it's ok to ship within 10% over of quantity ordered. Almost everything we receive is over so the warning really doesn't help. It would help better if we could set it up to show only at 12%. Then it would be a meaningful warning that would stop me from…

F7 to show open and valid production orders to print
It would be helpful to have the ability to “select valid” production order for printing
(Fields #3/#4) instead of always hand typing or selecting a range of production numbers.2 votesplanned ·

When user perform void AP check (AP -> Processing -> Void Checks After Posting,) it currently prompt for the followings parameters:
1. Cash Account No
2. Starting Check No
3. Ending Check No

It is suggested that Vendor Number should be added as an additional filter to avoid user making mistake.2 votes -
GL Posting Audit Trail
I suggest to add Audit trail on the user that posts GL Journal Entry. I would add the user to the GLTRXFIL and GLJNLHST. Both have room (21 and 20 characters). We already have the logic to do it in the Inventory Transaction Audit Trail. SOX Controls requires that. Public companies must have it and I see the benefit for non-public companies as well.

Add an option to include The Fixed Cost Per Unit when calculating Landed Cost
Currently on the Landed Cost Global setup field 7 has 2 options: Last Landed Cost and Landed Cost Factor. I suggest to add an option to include the Fixed Cost Per Item. If users chooses this option the system will calculate the Landed cost as FOB Cost * Landed Cost Factor + Fixed Cost Per Unit.

viewing links in COP inquiry via Order number and Invoice number mode
Would it be possible to consider showing the links for both Posted invoice and Order number inquiry mode?
When speaking with a customer we tend to have the invoice number and would like to see the link for a BOL.
Under the current system one must inquiry first the inv#, then write down the job#, go to said job no and then you can see the valid link
For a BOL where it is stored.It would be nice if the links would show up in either inquiry by inv# or job#, and simply see the link.

Change Reset Allocation & On Order to Net Change Adjustment
Currently, the process to reset qty allocation and on order start the process by zero out all item and inventory location qty allocation and on order. Then it start to read the open orders to accumulate the qty allocation and order. Depend on users system, this process can take a few minutes to 10 minutes.
During this period, the system is vulnerable if another user is creating orders to change allocation and on order. That is the reason why we suggest user to run reset allocation and on order at night time through defer processing. However, some users is having…

Add Notes To Export Processor
The ability to export and filter Notes should be added to Export Processor.

This project is declined because to export notes in export processor will result in poor performance because we do not use index in Export Processor. On the other hand, the Report Desk in Elliott 8.6 can be used to print or export notes to CSV or xlsx. So that's a better solution for a generic notes export function.

Improve Inventory Transaction Audit Trail Report Performance If Selection by Date Range
If user choose to print Inventory Transaction Audit Trail Report for All Items of a single date range, the report can for run a long time as if it is stuck. See attached example.
General speaking, user will get good performance if they select for specific item number range. Running this report on PSQL server directly will be much faster. Also, purge older inventory trx audit trail records will also help to speed up the report. Netcellent recommend keeping inventory trx audit trail database for 3 years of history.
It is suggested that Netcellent should optimize this report's performance even…

Drill down to GL Source when doing GL Account Inquiry
The idea is to save the necessary extra steps that are currently required if user wants to get the full journal of a GL entry. Now the user has exit the inquiry, go to Reports and run a Cross reference report with the Cross reference on the inquiry in order to see the full journal. With tis idea user will able to "scroll" yo the trx and then hit F key to get the drill down to the source. Maybe we should do it only for GL sources.

Have no zero's print on Quarterly PR reports
Qtrly PR reports include employees that have had no earnings. It doesn't matter if employee is checked active or inactive in the account. Where there is a bit of turnover in the factory, it makes the report much longer and they are needed on it.

Use Plus or Minus for Yes or No in All Areas
In Elliott, with a "Yes" or "No" type of question, user can use Plus "+" or Minus "-" sign to represent the "Yes" or "No". This is convenience for those people who prefer to use the numeric keypad.
On the other hand, some of the fields have been enhanced to accept not only "Y" or "N" values, then the "+" or "-" key won't work as "Y" or "N". In the attached exampled, "Stock Status Report", field "8. Exclude Zero Qty Items?" It has the extra option of "A" (All) where "Y=Yes, N=No, A=Include Zero Qty OH With Alloc or…

Option Not to Create Pegging File During ATP Regen
In ATP Regen, the pegging file is to support the ATP inquiry drill down to pegging (F7 Key), or printing of pegging report. Pegging information may be valuable for planner. But most of the people do not use Pegging information.
During ATP regen, it automatically regenerate pegging information and can be time consuming. If you do not use pegging data, then there should be an option to disable the regeneration of pegging. It is suggest that we add a flag in Global Setup -> System -> Available to Promise:
38. Create Pegging Data During ATP Regen? Y/N

Force Export Carrier Data in Shipped Data Export to Be Yes
For exporting EDI ASN, user will go to COP -> Utilities -> Sales Order Export -> Shipped Data Export (or Shipped History Data Export). Under most situation, the flag "4. Export Carrier Data" should be "Y" and system default to "Y". If user accidentally change this flag to "N", then the ASN mapping will not be processed correctly due to the "S" (Shipment record) will not be created.
It is suggested that if a trading partner as EDI profile setup up in the customer file, we shall then force "4. Export Carrier Data" to "Y" so user has not option…

Allow to use PO# instead of Invoice # in Cash receipt Import
As more electronic cash receipt files are based on the customer PO and not invoice number or order number I suggest to allow to use PO# in column H instead of Invoice #. The system will then check if the value is a valid invoice and apply the payment to the invoice or valid PO and using the CPPOREF will get the invoice and apply to the invoice. There is a potential issue if the same PO was used for more than one invoice and I am not sure how to handle this situation. This will be a huge help…
