I would like to see material royalty payments automated.
Currently in MS TICKET ENTRY you have to enter the Material Vendor in each ticket manually. Then in MS
MATERIAL PAYMENT WORKSHEET you have to complete the header and go to the detail area and pull each ticket in manually. WOW what a waste of time this is. You also have to enter the Unit Cost into each ticket and the sales tax.
To Automate this here are requirements:
MS TICKET ENTRY
MSTB MatlVendor field should pull from INMT LastVendor or if there is a MS Quote it should be pulled from MSQD MatlVendor.
Then in MS MATERIAL PAYMENT WORKSHEET when I enter into MSMH MatlVendor and complete the header it should pull all of the tickets that are open into this invoice. Then I can delete any that I do not want to pay. Also MSMT UnitCost should pull the rate from INMT LastCost or if there is a MS Quote it should pull from MSQD UnitPrice.
Some other things that would be nice are...
1. Being able to change the UOM for the royalty payment because most of the time the UOM for the project is different than the UOM for the royalty payment.
2. SALES TAX vs USE TAX...
In MATERIAL PAYMENT WORKSHEET you only have the option for Sales Tax but since we are paying a vendor for materials we purchased to use on a project we need to pay USE TAX. Can you make this an option? To automate that I would suggest adding Tax Type and Tax Code fields in IN MATERIAL LOCATION on each material so MATERIAL PAYMENT WORKSHEET can pull it from there instead of having to enter it on each ticket.
