Infor LX & BPCS Tip: The Top 6 Benefits of CLD

The Configurable Ledger (CLD) is the central repository for a client’s financial accounting data.

Did you know it can do all of the following?

  • Journalize and post transaction data from any third-party application or Infor LX subsystem to the Configurable Ledger (CLD).
  • Generate multiple journal entries across different charts of accounts, ledgers, and books within the CLD from one transaction line.
  • Automatically post transaction amounts across different books using an appropriate exchange rate between the batch transaction currency and target book currency.
  • Use validation reports to identify validation errors within the files that contain batch transaction data and then you can make any necessary corrections before resubmission.
  • Use standard CEA grouping and summarization options for journals created during Batch Transaction Processing.
  • Interface GLD journal entries into CEA for the desired version of Infor LX. This allows data to be interfaced into CEA without changing the way data is processed through Infor LX subsystems.

Do you continue to report it against the operation, or create a re-work shop order?

If you are re-working through a specific operation you can capture the time as run labor with the SFC600 program. Now you need to deal with the variance of actual to standard time and what impact this has on costing.

Make to Order? No problem if you use the Configuration Management System. This LX product allows you to define and configure a make to order product during Customer Order Entry. Basically, you have the option to create different products under the same common product item. You will get two completely different common end items that are configured from the same common parent.

The customer orders are planned and turned into shop orders for each end item with all the associated components. With an MES solution in place, the shop order side is easy to schedule and allows you to manage the shop floor.
