Overview

FINANCE: Override Warning in Invoice Entry PO Costing

OPERATIONS: Auto Calculate Vendor Delivery Date

TECHNOLOGY: User Provisioning

Improves control over PO costing changes during invoice entry by replacing passive warnings with an intentional override action.

• In ACP500D3 (Invoice Entry PO Costing), users previously could unintentionally accept changes by pressing ENTER, even when quantity to cost or amount to cost values had changed.

• A new “F14 to Override” warning message replaces the old message:
  “Details have changed. Press enter again to accept data.”
  This ensures users acknowledge and confirm significant changes explicitly.

New System Parameter:

• “Apply GRN Costing Tolerance for PO Costing” (optional):

  • Within tolerance: Displays the original message —
    “Details have changed. Press enter again to accept data.”

  • Outside tolerance: Triggers the new override requirement —
    “F14 to Override”

Benefits:

• Enhances oversight and reduces unintentional cost acceptance.

• Enables better control of PO costs when invoice details differ from expectations.

Enhances purchase order efficiency by automatically calculating the Vendor Delivery Date based on user input.

• When a purchase order line is created, the user enters the item, order quantity, and Due Date.

• LX automatically calculates the Vendor Delivery Date, adding buffer time for quality control, testing, and inspection activities.

• If the Due Date is revised, an informational message prompts the user to review and potentially update the Vendor Delivery Date.

Enhancements:

• A new PUR820 system parameter enables automatic recalculation of the Vendor Delivery Date.

• Instead of a manual reminder, PUR500 now issues a message: “Vendor Delivery Date recalculated,” showing the updated date.

Benefits:

• Eliminates the need to manually review and update the Vendor Delivery Date.

• Removes the need to delete and recreate PO lines to trigger automatic date calculation.
