Infor LX & BPCS Finance Tip: 3-Way Match - A validation step when paying vendor invoices in ACP500

The validation compares the order quantity and price from the purchase order, the quantity received from the ITH record, and the quantity and price on the vendor invoice. The PO, the receipt, and the invoice are the three “legs” of a 3-way match. If all three match, you have a valid invoice transaction. If the price you are about to pay does not match the price agreed on the purchase order, or if the quantity you’re about to pay for does not match what you ordered or received, the ACP500 user will want to review the discrepancy before paying the invoice. There can be legitimate reasons for a discrepancy, such as needing to prepay an invoice for an item to be received in the future. The 3-Way Match process lets the user take those extra validation steps before making the payment.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

From a recent article published by M4B Marketing:

When analyzing your sales performance consider the following: 

  • Pricing changes eg. price increases or discounting
  • Competitors – competitors entering or exiting the market
  • New product or service launch growing sales
  • New product or service cannibalizing existing product or service sales
  • Customers moving between products or services
  • Changes in customer demand eg. increasing or decreasing
  • The segments and distribution channels you operate in
 
Two big sources of inefficiencies in manufacturing are paper and spreadsheets. I know that you love ‘em, but they are the cause of more problems than you probably realize. Think of how long it takes you to get paper-based data into the hands of those who can do something valuable with the data.
 
  • Is the information captured correctly?
  • Can everyone access the information?
  • Is this an accurate representation of what’s going on across all operations?

Make your shop floor paperless and put systems in place that talk to one another and automatically pull and push data to and from your ERP so that you can look in one place for all the information you need to run your business effectively.

If you’re not doing this today, you might as well be burning money.
