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…

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".

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.

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.

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.

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…2 votescompleted ·AdminEdward M. Kwang - NETcellent System, Inc. (CEO / Founder, NETcellent Systems, Inc.) responded
The change for (1) was completed. The new logic is that if there are two users (including defer processing) trying to perform sales order import at the same time, the 2nd user will get proper message without file accessing error and thus stop the defer processing.

Stock status Inquiry - Default Location
Stock status Inquiry - Default Location
Since there is no current setting for setting the default location in stock

Warning if entering a Credit memo for a fully paid invoice
User can enter a new Credit Memo (using COP, Order Entry, Change F4) when the invoice is fully paid or has another Credit memo that made the invoice a zero balance. I suggest to give the user a warning if this is the case to prevent a duplicate CM. I can see the difficulty to do it in a simple COP, Order Entry Add, when adding a CM, but should be handle in Change, F4 to create a CM against the invoice.

On-Line Credit card Processing Allow Editing Receipt's Comment
Currently Elliott defaults on the Credit card receipt "THANK YOU" and on the 2nd line "PLEASE COME AGAIN". User might want to change.
I suggest to add a field with 3 lines in the Global Setup of the CC Online setup for the required greeting. It can be defaulted to the current greeting but user can change. Also allow to leave blank if user wants to use Laser design.1 votecompleted ·AdminEdward M. Kwang - NETcellent System, Inc. (CEO / Founder, NETcellent Systems, Inc.) responded

Extract an indented Bill of Material from Elliott to CSV
I see that there's a CSV option for single level Bill of Material but not for indented. Is there a way to extract an indented Bill of Material from Elliott to CSV? The output layout will similar as single level Bill of Material but need adding extra columns that includes "Report Line Sequence number" to keep whole report can be restored to original sequence after sorting from different way on spreadsheet. Plus, fields of "Stock Flag", "Control Flag" and "P/M Code.

Removing Line Item With Restricted Attribute On It
We have never been able to remove a line item off of an order in Order Entry if there's a restricted attribute on that item. For instance, let's say there is an existing order and a restricted attribute has been added to a certain product line, etc. that prevents that customer from ordering it. The order will get thrown on hold at the time of a picking ticket. If we go into that order in Order Entry to delete it, it won't allow us into that line item. The only way to remove it is to take the restricted attribute…

Show Item on stock Status if Qty On-Order/Allocated > 0 and Qty On-Hand = 0
In Stock status Report, if user answer Y to field 8 (Exclude Zero Qty Items), and Qty On-Hand is zero, Item is not on the report, even if Qty Allocated or Qty On-Order are > 0. I suggest to allow user to see these items by adding a prompt on the Stock status screen or adding a Global setup field.

Ability to mass update tax codes (1,2 and 3) through Mass Change Customer CSV Import Layout
As sales tax laws are changing, we are having sales tax liability in more and more states. As we need to re-define our tax codes setup and create new codes, it would be helpful if we could mass update the three tax codes using the customer CSV import file. Currently tax codes are not one of the available import fields.

Cancelled PO Line Printing
When printing a PO with cancelled line or lines, the presentation is misleading and might cause an error on the vendor side. As we know Elliott print Cncl literal on cancelled lines but shows the quantity and the line total amount. The lines are not added to the total but I don't think its is enough, After cancelling the line, user cant even access field 19 and enter a comment. I think that the qty should be presented as 0 and the total line as zero. This is an old Macola behavior that we lived with and maybe it is…

Order Import - add an option to move a GOOD file to a folder
When doing Order Import, Netcellent introduced new flags, 26 and 27 that handles the move of a file with errors to a different folder, this is a good feature. For good files. Elliott deletes the import file. My understanding from a conversation with Mark is that this logic of NOT archiving the import file is because of the assumption that the file already created in an EDI system and exists there. But if the import is NOT from EDI (maybe the partner created it in the required format), forcing the user to save it in 2 places is an extra…
