BPCS/LX Tip of the Week: LX 8.3.5 Facility Period Close

The Facility Period Close process was introduced in Infor LX 8.3.4 and has been enhanced in 8.3.5. This feature allows continuous or 24-hour worldwide operations in multiple facilities to submit Period End Close jobs for each facility as daily operations cease, or shifts end.

This enhancement provides a batch mode for the Facility Period Close (INV930) process and allows the Update IIM Inventory from IWI (INV931) process to be submitted from the INV930B program. The enhancement also provides a batch mode for the INV931 process.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

When a lot is completely shipped on a customer order, the Lot Status is changed to Z. Since a resupply order must still be received in the To Warehouse to complete the transaction, do not update the lot status when the resupply order is shipped. If a lot is completely shipped on a resupply order, LX no longer updates the lot status to Z, because the shipped lot retains its current lot status, the additional steps, no additional steps are required to receive it in the To Warehouse.

This feature resolves or resets a purchase order or requisition that is no longer being processed, but the system still indicates it is 'in use'. The user selects Purchase Order/Requisition in Use Maintenance, PUR940D, from the Purchasing Management Menu, PUR, located in the Special Processing sub-menu. The user then enters an order or requisition to remove the 'In Use' status.
