Infor LX & BPCS Tip: Return Material Authorization (RMAs)

The Return Material Authorization process, RMA, controls and monitors the return of goods. Infor LX generates an RMA which mirrors the terms and conditions of the return. You can copy the RMA from a processed invoice or create it independently of an existing order. If you copy an invoice to create an RMA, Infor LX copies only regular lines, not special lines. You can manually add special lines as credits on the RMA. Enter RMAs in the same manner as a customer quote. Like a customer quote, an RMA has no immediate effect on inventory, accounts receivable, sales, or the general ledger. Infor LX then generates a Return Material Document which provides the customer with the authorization to proceed with the return. Internal procedures, return reason codes, and instructional notes on the RMA identify the disposition processing. You can perform credit processing and determine update effects by entering the RMA number and assigning the appropriate order type.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

In ERP LX, this function is called Backward Scheduling. This is a simple, easy way to create and release shop orders associated with the end item.

The result is a shop calendar with the associated order start dates. Setting up ERP LX properly with correct Queue Times, Setup and Run Times, along with Move Times, will result in accurate shop order start dates.

Establishing the Quantity On-Hand and the Quantity Available.

LX maintains buckets for information associated with the following inventory transactions for each item:

  • Opening Balance
  • Issues
  • Receipts
  • Adjustments
  • Allocations for the Customer
  • Allocations for Manufacturing


The on hand quantity does not include any allocations. To arrive at the on hand quantity, start with the opening balance, less any issues, plus any receipts, then add or subtract any adjustments. Available inventory is the on-hand less any allocations.
