Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for EXECUTIVES

TECHNOLOGY: LN Report Archive

The LN Report Archive solution enables you to archive reports, so you can reprint them, even several years after they are initially printed.

Archiving is particularly useful for external documents, which are reports that are sent, for example, to customers and suppliers, such as invoices and orders.

In some countries having this type of reports that can be reprinted for at least 10 years after the reports are initially printed is a legal requirement.

In the LN Report Archive solution, you have these options:

  • Specify which reports must be archived. When printed, these reports are automatically stored in an archive folder.
  • Reprint the archived reports.
  • Maintain the archived reports, for example, move archived reports to another folder or to a CD-R(W)/DVD.

Note: Reports that are printed to Business Objects Reports are archived in the same way as other reports. However, you cannot reprint archived reports on a Business Objects device.

OPERATIONS: Revisions and approval

Note that the Bill of Material and Routing are revision controlled. When a structure is generated for the first time, a first revision is made with status New.

If the Approve Structures Automatically check box is selected in the Job Shop Master Data Parameter (tirou0500m000) session, the revision is created with status Approved.

If the structure is regenerated, the current revision status determines the result:

  • If the status is New, this revision is overwritten
  • If the status is Approved, a new revision is created

FINANCE: Moving calendar periods

You can move monthly periods to a different parent period. For example, if you have a monthly calendar, you can create quarter periods and move months to the quarters.

  1. Select Financials > Global Ledger > Setup > Finance Enterprise Group > Maintenance.
  2. Open the finance enterprise group.
  3. Click the Calendar tab.
  4. Open the calendar for which you want to move periods.
  5. Click the Hierarchy tab.
  6. Select the periods to move.
  7. Select Actions > Move.
  8. Select the new parent period under which you want to move the periods.
  9. Click OK.
