Infor LN & Baan Finance Tip: Unallocated Payment

How do I assign an unallocated payment to a purchase invoice when the document dates are not the same?

When trying to assign an unallocated payment, it is possible that the purchase invoice is not displayed in session Assign Unallocated / Advance Payments to Invoices (tfcmg2106s000), even though it is showing in the open entries. This can happen when the document date of the unallocated payment lies before the document date of the purchase invoice you want to assign it. There are 2 ways to handle this:

  1. Change the document date of the unallocated payment. This can be done by reversing the original document and creating a new one with a different document date.
  2. Create a new financial batch and use a transaction type of category Cashsubcategory Assign Advance/ Unallocated Payment. The date of the assignment will be the Transaction Entry Date of the batch. This way, the document dates can differ. Session Assign Advance/Unallocated Payments to invoices (tfcmg2131s000) will open. Chose the correct unallocated payment document and on top, click assign invoices to assign the correct invoice.

Scrap and rework costs are a manufacturing reality impacting organizations across all industries and product lines.

Common sense rules. We may not like them, but generally, they stand the test of time and should be followed. Here are 8 common sense rules related to inventory management published by Inbound Logistics back in 2007. They still hold true today. 

1. If you don' t know where you are going, no road will take you there. Enterprise resource management systems are designed to tell you about today' s inventory. With some work, you can also access information about past inventory. To manage inventory proactively, however, you must know projected inventory levels for the future.

2. Make what you can sell. An integrated Sales and Operations Plan will naturally take into account expected demand in its production plan. Inventory is not an independent variable - it is the direct result of demand and supply.

3. Sell what you can make. Too often, a disconnect exists between sales and marketing desires and the reality of production capabilities.

4. If you can' t sell it, stop making it. If demand for your product does not materialize, you need to identify that gap quickly to avoid a buildup of non-moving inventory. Numerous mechanisms can be put in place to identify such trends.
