It's almost the end of the 1st Quarter of 2021 -  How are you doing on your 2021 goals?

Maybe it's time to get more out of your ERP system?

TIME TO UPGRADE?

Is an upgrade to the latest version of your Infor ERP system the goal for 2021? If so, Crossroads RMC has 35+ years of industry experience that we bring to the table to ensure that your upgrade achieves the results you’re looking for and does so on-time and on-budget. Our goal is to delight your users and maximize the efficiencies that your business can gain from implementing best-of-breed business practices.

Make Crossroads RMC consultants part of your upgrade team to:

  • Review your custom components to see what can be eliminated
  • Provide an analysis of the specific benefits that your company can achieve by upgrading
  • Train your users on the latest functionality
  • Support your users on the old version while the project team focuses on the upgrade project
  • Handle the entire upgrade project start to finish
  • Supplement your existing project team with 1-2 key resources
  • Develop an integration to that 3rd party system that is a MUST HAVE when you upgrade

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

These programs are used to capture and post shop floor information. Labor reporting, machine time, etc. can be captured by either program. The key difference is that one will also capture the production receipt and backflush components. Based on your company information / transaction process, one of these programs will most likely be used daily to capture current shop floor data. You can use the shop packet labor ticket for the manual recording, and the keying of the data. Alternatively, you can incorporate an automated method like an MES solution to capture the data and streamline the process.

The bubble number is maintained at the component level for each component defined on the Bill of Material. It is an extra user-defined reference number that you can use to re-sequence the maintenance screen display or bills of material listings.

In Infor LX, the system displays the bubble number for the existing child items. Engineering drawings often use a bubble number at the component level on the drawing so that same bubble number can be used on the Bill of Material for a link of the component to the drawing. Alternatively, you may use it simply as a method to sequence the BOM.

Be careful of how you assign the number. It is a good idea to assign the number with a consecutive count by 10 leaving room to allow for component additions to the Bill of Material.
