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.

Define Inventory transactions for issuing components to the shop and receiving finished items. See the Inventory help text for examples of transactions.

  • Transaction type I - Single Issue to Shop Order. Use this transaction type to issue one component at a time. Use this for high-value items that are marked as Must Single Issue on the Item Master file.
  • Transaction type M - Multiple Issue to Shop Order. Use this transaction type to issue all the components as listed in the Shop Order, in one transaction. Note that this transaction type does not issue Must Single Issue items.
  • Transaction type S - Receipt from shop. Use this transaction type to receive the finished item into stock and update the shop order accordingly. 

The Shop Order Lot/Location Allocation program is an alternative to using the above Inventory transactions. Use this when the item is finished, and you want to review exactly what was used to make it. You can review the components as allocated, make any changes, and finally accept the finished order.

The system allows you to manipulate and maintain a simulated MPS and MRP. You can copy the simulation from the existing first cut, or you can create a totally new schedule. You can also perform a simulation of the rough-cut capacity plan. This allows a quick visual inspection by inquiry or menu of needed work center

loads for the proposed MPS. After you choose a suitable MPS and rough-cut capacity, the system allows you to transfer the simulated MPS to the live Master Production Schedule.
