Search by Customer Item Number
Often times a customer will provide us a list of questions regarding their item number rather than our item numbers, ie special pricing requests.
Currently in order to determine what our item number is we look it up by searching by customer item number in Order entry which is very cumbersome and we run the risk of inadvertently changing the COP order.
I suggest to add the Customer Item Search in Invoice Inquiry by Customer and in Stock Status. If necessary the system could prompt for the customer number

I think the key issue is we should identify customer number first. There's one important feature called "Sales Desk" which is a great tool to interact with customer. You can lookup items in this function. Since the customer number is required as the first step, so it will provide pricing, it can also optionally create an order from the sales desk. You can access sales desk from COP -> Processing -> Sales Desk. Unlike Order Entry, you won't accidental alter an order in Sales Desk. If you have never used it before, you should try it, it might require some setup in Global Setup before you can use it. I suggest to provide the search by customer item number from Sales Desk screen. Pease let me know your thought.

in Elliott 8.6, we are moving toward using Report Desk to replace Export Processor. We can consider add Product Category as a group to UDR Invoice History by item Report.

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…

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.

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…3 votes -
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.

Will it help if we allow you to print check to disk? Also, you might resolve this issue by print to a PDF printer.

Please look into the direction of using BOMP work order instead of kit item. You may customize BOMP work order components in COP as well.

Allow to use wild card file name and multiple path when attaching documents in Elliott Post Office
Elliott allows to use a variable on the Attach... field when sending a Post Office email. For example the variable InvNo will automatically attach a document with the invoice number as the file name. This is NICE. I suggest to allow multiple path in case the documents are in different folders and to allow wildcard. So instead of $InvNo$.pdf I can define $InvNo$.. For example if the invoice number is 123456, Elliott will attach 123456.DOC, 123456A.PDF etc. In addition user should be able to define different path so it can be something like M:\ELLIOTT8\DOC1\$InvNo$., M:\ELLIOTT8\DOC2\$InvNo$.…

To implement this feature, we probably should add a global setup flag to determine the GL Reference format with the default as the original format.

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.

Shipment Verification display option of items not scanned
With orders of over 120 line items it is tedious to check for items not scanned. An option for items not completely filled that includes the bin location and UPC code would be handy.

It is possible to provide a special function to show items not confirmed. If we should do this, then we should also provide a function to show items that’s confirmed. We will review this.

Email Locking Event to Offending User
Currently, Elliott allow subscribing a management event by going to Global Setup, Press Detail Event button, and F5 key to insert the LCKEVENT - Record Lock Triggered Per Min. When a record lock over one minute is taking place, this event email can be sent to a specific person, like the admin of the organization.
It is suggested that this email should be sent to the offending user (the user who create the locking condition in the first place). The issue we had was that we know the offending user Windows login, but we do not know the Elliott corresponding…

Allow a credit card refund to be processed when processing a credit memo
Instead of having to go to "credit card handle", it would be very helpful if you could process a credit card refund when processing a credit memo.

In addition to the potential complicated programming effort, I think the main issue is security. It is obvious that we don’t want all people who enter a credit memo also perform credit card refund. This may be something we can evaluate again in Elliott V9.

Email Credit Card Receipt upon Credit Card Charges in Elliott
It will be nice to email user the credit card receipt upon the following type of credit card transactions:
Sales, Refund, Complete, Force, Void
There's no need for Pre-authorization. This feature need to be turned on through global setup in the on-line credit card processing area because not all Elliott users necessary want this feature. The default value is "N". The user who will receive the credit card receipt is determined as followings:
(1) From Sales Desk, the primary contacts on the ship-to or customers.
(2) From Order Entry Billing screen, the primary contacts on the order, if not, the…3 votes -
Create number of Shipping Labels based on Customer Item pack size
When creating shipping labels, the number of labels created should first look at the customer item pack size and then default to the item file pack size. If there's a shipment for 20, with the item pack size being 4 and customer pack size being 10, we want 2 labels to print, not 5.

Enter Salesman 2 and 3 with 0% (Zero Percent)
In order entry or sales desk, currently Elliott systems allow up to 3 salesman. Each salesman will need to have a percentage split with total 3 salesman percentage add up to 100%.
In some situations, it may be desirable to enter salesman 1 with 100% and salesman 2 and 3 with 0% for referencing purpose. In many cases, the commission needs to be handled outside of Elliott. As long as the system can provide the reference of all salesman on the order, the information can then be retrieve by tools like Crystal Report.
Let us know if this is something…

Mass Create or Import for Product Category / Location Account File
