What is preventing you from upgrading your Infor M3 ERP System?

Your answer to this question is likely customizations… customizations that were once the best thing since sliced bread but now have become the bane of your existence.

There is something you can do about it! 

Crossroads RMC has many options for M3 dealing with customizations: 

  • Customizations can be re-written to call standard M3 functions via APIs and BODs.
  • Customizations can be replaced with enhanced sorting orders and views, the results of which can be exported to Excel.
  • Your customizations can be re-programmed using Extensibility for smaller customizations and the Infor Development Studio for larger customizations.
  • Analytics Dashboard allows for an endless variation of M3 views to be created all without touching your ERP system.
  • M3 Ad Hoc Reporting and M3 Report Manager (MRM) can be used to create your own custom-designed report output.
  • New functionality in the latest version of the ERP software may allow you to eliminate many of your customizations.

It all starts with an assessment of your custom components. This is something that can be done internally by you, or with the assistance of Crossroads RMC consultants.

Why continue to live with the elephant in the room who insists on blocking the doorway to progress? Start the process today to get rid of the customizations that are preventing you from taking your ERP system to the next level. Contact us today to learn more: 800.762.2077, solutions@crossroadsrmc.com, or request a phone consultation.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

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.

The system supports four levels of inventory. You can view summaries of stock at each level through the Material Status Inquiry program or through reports.

 

Below are the four levels:

▪  Item

▪  Item + warehouse

▪  Item + warehouse + location

▪  Item + warehouse + location + lot

 

The lot number level and/or container of inventory can cross multiple warehouses and locations. For example, item + lot or item + lot + container. Locations exist within warehouses. There is no limit on the number of warehouses, locations, or lots that you can assign to an item.
