  2. Balance Sheet Net Income from Last Year - Fix Temporary Year End Out of Balance Issue

    For users who do temporary year end, from the time of temporary year end to the final year end, the General Ledger Balance Sheet will be out of balance.

    This is because the Balance Sheet Net Income (BSNI) only calculate the number from this year once you do a temporary year end. In the mean time, the detail transaction for last year is still there because final year end is not done.

    It has been suggested, that we can introduce another financial statement layout code:
    LYNI = Last Year Net Income
    This is similar to BSNI. But LYNI only reflect…

  3. Display Literal "Press Down Arrow Key to Change Material" in Material Work Order Change Mode

    In Material Work Order change mode, if user with to change the material, they must place the cursor at Qty field and press down arrow. If user press the Enter key instead, then the Material window does not show up. This often cause confusion.

    It is suggested that we display the "Press Down Arrow Key to Change Material" literal at the Qty field if the condition allow (i.e. WO is not allocated, printed or completed.)

    User should log out of Elliott at night time to avoid problems next day. this is especially an issue at Terminal Server environment. Therefore, it is suggested that we should develop a report for user list that can be run in defer processing. The report can also optionally email to the users that are still in Elliott if their email address is available.

    Let us know if you think such a report is valuable.

  5. 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.

  6. obsolete item

    We would like to be able to create bills of materials with out using obsolete items. It would be nice to have a pop up window when you enter an obsolete item that tells you it is an obsolete item and wont allow you to use that item. We may have machinery out in the field that has the item that is now obsolete that we might still sell to them but we would like not to have the option to even use that item in a current build when creating the bill of material. I understand the "Transition an…

  7. wild card search

    It would be very beneficial to have a wild card search. Example: When searching in inventory we only have the benefits of searching the beginning of the description, part number, substitute item,etc. It would be very helpful to put a word in and have it search all of the descriptions and item numbers and show all items that have the same string of characters wherever they happen to be.

  9. Attribute heading tied to the customer file

    Currently, when we view the heading of an attribute tied to the customer, it is only showing the customer name, but not the customer number. If you were to view an attribute tied to an item, it shows the item number. We would like to see the customer number in the heading of the attribute, if possible.

  10. Add a flag in the Global setup to allow (or not allow) a Y in the "Zero Quantity On Hand For Missing Tag Items? when postin Physical Count

    This is a dangerous field and even if only authorized users can run the posting physical count a mistake can be made. A simple flag on the Global setup can prevent a situation where user change the N to Y. I am aware that there are warning, but from an experience with users, these warning are not preventing these mistakes where items value are zero because user changed the N to Y.

  11. Show Inventory Transfer Status in COP Order Inquiry Screen

    Now that we implemented multi-bin with I/M Inventory Transfer Processing. We like to know if we can have information displayed of the order in COP Order Inquiry screen. Currently, it only show me if the order is picked (after picking ticket printed), billed or invoiced. I like to know if the order is:
    * actually in picking (the transfer ticket was generated);
    * they have moved from the bin locations to the "ship" bin location;
    For example, if the transfer ticket is printed, we can show one "" beside the Date Picked field. If the transfer batch is completed…

  13. Allow to add a Ship To when adding a customer in Sales Desk

    Sales Desk, F5 Options, Add new Customer, doesn't allow to add a Ship To and assumes Ship To is the same as Bill To. I suggest to allow to add a Ship To.

    When on the ship-to field in Sales Desk, the user has the ability to add or change a ship-to via the F7 search function. We have changed the user interface for the ship-to file maintenance application. Ship-To Maintenance now prompts for ship-to numbers for the initially entered customer until Escape is pressed from the Ship-To Number field and a different customer number can be entered. Drilling down from Customer File Maintenance (8.2 and above) or accessing it on the fly from the search window will only allow the customer number passed to to be used. Pressing Escape on the Ship-To Number field will return Elliott back to the menu bar and selecting Add, Change, or Delete will use the passed customer number and place the cursor on the Ship-To Number field. This change will be available in the next Elliott release.

  15. Allow to reapply a check to the an invoice that was applied to before

    If user made a mistake and wants to apply more money from a check to an invoice that already applied to before Elliott doesn't allow it. The only way to do it is to use the AR Open Item Maintenance with a risk of a user mistake that can change the customer's balance. I suggest to change the Reapply in AR and allow application of a check that was previously applied to an invoice or debit memo.

    Support for the ship to accumulators in the SY12MONS table was added in V7.58.824/8.28.824. Support was also added to the export processor in V8.28.824. A special function to access the ship-to information on file for a customer has been added to V8.2 and will able available in the next Elliott release. See http://support.elliott.com/knowledgebase/articles/1887694-feature-ship-to-special-function-support-in-cust for more information.

  17. 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.

  18. Add Product Category and Item Material Type to Item Audit Trail

    The Item Product Category and Item Material Cost type are very important and as we know the values effect the GL on the revenues, COGS and Inventory Asset accounts. I suggest to add these fields to the audit trail. An example is a change on the Material type that changes the Stock status by GL account file without changing the GL.

  19. Limit access to Mass Replace function

    We seem to have a need to limit access to the "Mass Replace" function in the Bills of Material / Maintenance / Product Structure. Would be nice if there was a global security option to at least have a warning show up to notify operator something like "Supervisor Permission is Required to Proceed With Mass Replace"

  20. COP Transfer Order - Skip Transit Location if

    COP Transfer Order - Skip transit location if order transit days = 0

    Currently, when processing a COP Transfer Order, system transfers to Transit Location when order is invoiced, and then requires user to do Receiving Transfer Order Processing to transfer material from transit location to destination.

    Propose that if Order Transit Days = 0, system transfers to destination location when order is invoiced - skipping the transit location and eliminating the need to process via Receiving Transfer Order Processing to complete the transfer.
