When generating a PO from the To Do List - Stock Alert in AR19.7, the items fill the PO in the following order:
1, the item that you initiated the PO with by hitting the drill-down arrow
2, all other items on the Stock Alert list that you buy from that supplier in alphabetical order.
I don't know if this is the same in AR2012 - I'll let you know when I can get the To Do List to work!
I would prefer to see the items populate the PO in supplier's part number order. It would reduce errors when someone is reading and entering the data from the PO at the supplier's end.

I agree! something needs to be done about this! MYOB need to give us the option of selecting how we would like to sort-by or order our parts e.g alpha or numeric.

I have hundreds of items with more than 10 suppliers. It is very hard to go one by one.
Also is there anyway that we can see item number on stock alert screen rather than item description?
This will help a lot while MYOB Team is working on this issue (if they are doing).- RayJordanExperienced Cover User
We have 3500+ items and around 100 suppliers.
The inability of AR2013 to create a multiple item PO from the Stock Alert list (as is standard with AR19.9 and previous versions) is the major roadblock for me in switching to AR2013 from AR19.9.
Allowing the user to change the order of items listed (by my part number, supplier's part number or description) on the PO would also be very nice.
Please make it happen.
(edited 2000+ items to 3500+ items)

Another very annoying change from earlier versions of stock alert besides the inability now for it to work properly is the decision that MY PART NUMBER isnt really important and that the description is
When you guys finally get the Stock alert working please reinstate the Part Number column and could you please also add a column for the suppliers part number and allow us to sort by both those columns as well
this would definitely help when trying to control stock levels and purchasing

Thanks for the great suggestion. Including the item numbers in the stock alert would certainly help many users to differentiate the listed items. If you'd like to see this change, please cast your vote here.

Dear Liam/ Myob team
Fix the not working issues first before you try and add more complexity to something that doesnt work already
I have been using MYOB since 1993 VER 3 and so far there hasnt been any significant steps forward in user friendliness for most of the time
A few steps forward in 2014/2015 but they have been far outweighed by the functions that are not working properly
Stop trying to make MYOB more accounant friendly and make it business owner and staff user friendly
Its still possible to accidentally change the name of a customer or supplier card just by overtyping it while your trying to look up a phone number etc
Realistically HOW often do you ever change a card name or the info on it
you look up info 100's of times more than change it
Has been that way since version 3 or earlier
My advice to MYOB development team
GO AND WORK IN THE REAL WORLD WITH THIS FOR A WHILE TO SEE WHAT BUSINESSES REALLY NEED

Hi DazzaB
Thank you for your feedback in regards to this idea and others.
The development team do look into ideas that will assist all clients and partners along with accountants. The In Tray is a great example of this. It allows users to scan in documents so that it may save some data entry of that information. It can also be used for accountants or auditors to check the original document to make sure that the transaction was entered appropriately.
Along with the primary focus of the development team for previous updates has been fixing known issues within the program. While we are aware that there are some known issues still within the program future updates are planned to correct those updates and workflow improvements.
Once again thank you for your feedback, I have shared it with the team. - charlie-mExperienced Cover User
Hi
Is it possable to have a item number included on the short supply window list.
On the list it has item description and suppliers listed.
When the window is active it sorts by item description with the suppliers all over the place.
When clicked on item suppliers it list all them in order, but item details are still all over the place.
If you had item number then supplier at leas every thing on order page would be in order for checking stock ordering.
Could support please include this in a later update

Yes, MYOB please add the option of viewing by the item number, as this function just is not helpful to us viewing by item name.

Much earlier versions of MYOB had both Item name and Item description in the stock alert
I would like to know who was the bright spark at MYOB who decided that MY part number for an Item was unimportant ( or perhaps it was a combined bright spark idea)
Nearly everything we as MYOB coal face users revolves around our part number and description so I have been at a total loss to understand the stupidity of it being unavailable on the stock alert. It should also show the part number of the supplier as well but thats another massive change that MYOB would have to make
It seems like they are not really trying to make it USER friendly just accountant friendly

Im happy to put my name to this as I have been using MYOB for 24 years now and its only marginally better than the original and in some cases several steps back and so far very few real positive steps have been made by the MYOB DEVELOPMENT TEAM
They still havnt fixed the problem of it in stock alert only ordering some of the items required
It can take up to 3 and 4 orderes to get all the parts ordered
Duhhhh
When will someone listen
