Morrison Brothers Goes Live With Crossroads MES in Record Time!

On February 18, 2016, the Maquoketa plant of Morrison Brothers went live with the Crossroads MES solution. The goal was to remove all the shop floor paperwork and eliminate the manual recording of production and labor. The company achieved this goal in just 96 days from project kick-off to go live. Included in the go-live was the ability to deliver drawings electronically to the Crossroads MES workstations. This was a critical component of the implementation as it ensured that each workstation would always be operating off the latest revision of the engineering documents.

A rollout of the Crossroads MES solution is planned for Morrison’s Dubuque plants later this year. 

Morrison Brothers is a major producer of petroleum marketing equipment in the United States and abroad.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

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.
