Is your current Infor LX or BPCS system holding back your growth? It doesn't have to.

In 2026, staying competitive means moving beyond manual workflows and data silos. Crossroads RMC has partnered with Aleran and Avalara to provide an integrated, end-to-end solution designed specifically for manufacturers and distributors in the Infor LX and BPCS market.

Transform Your Operations from Quote to Cash

This powerful partnership enables you to maximize your existing ERP investment without the need for a total overhaul.

• Aleran: Modern B2B eCommerce
  • 24/7 Digital Catalog: Provide a fully branded shopping experience that connects directly to your LX/BPCS data.
  • Self-Service Portals: Empower customers and dealers with real-time access to inventory, quotes, and order history.
  • Streamlined CPQ: Simplify complex product configurations and pricing to accelerate sales cycles.
• Avalara: Automated Tax Compliance

This enhancement: 

• Provides an ability for LX to integrate with Infor Federation Services (IFS) to automate provisioning of users.
• Activates LX exit points during maintenance of LX business roles and business units to publish the SyncSecurityRoleMaster BOD which can be received by IFS as LX-specific roles in addition to the three IFS predefined LX-specific roles: LX-SystemAdministrator (corresponding to LX security type S = LX Security Officer); LX-SystemManager (corresponding to LX security type M = LX Security Manager); and LX-User (corresponding to LX security type U = LX User).
• Enables support for LX receiving an inbound SyncSecurityUserMaster BOD (sent from IFS) and creating or revising the associated LX user (or security manager or security officer). This enhancement also supports creating an IBMi user profile which can then be defined as an LX user (or security manager or security officer).
• Activates LX exit points during maintenance of LX users (and security managers and security officers) to send the ProcessSecurityUserMaster BOD to IFS requesting creation or revision of a user on behalf of LX.
• Automates sending revised LX user authorities to corresponding System i Manager (SiM) tasks which can then be uploaded to System i Workspace (SiW).

This enhancement provides a robust RMA Inquiry capability. The base RMA Inquiry application delivers role-based functionality to support customer service, sales, pricing and business analysis functions.

The IDF RMA Inquiry presentation enhances a number of customer service and data analysis functions.

• RMA List provides filters that allow sorting and sequencing by any displayed data field, such as RMA number, customer number, Total RMA amount, request date, good thru date, Customer reason code, Disposition reason code, Q/C reason code.
• RMA Line List provides filters that allow sorting and sequencing by any displayed data field, such as item number, request date, extended amount, net price, Customer reason code, Disposition reason code, Q/C reason code.
• RMA detail cards provide additional details about the RMA, as well as about any orders that will result from the RMA.

IDF RMA Inquiry provides significant enhancement to several business roles:

Customer service personnel, customer service managers responsible for handling customer complaints and negotiating return conditions with the customer Warehouse personnel, warehouse manager at the return warehouse. Billing personnel, billing managers responsible for processing credits to the customer and handling questions related to the RMA, return and eventual credit.

Managers responsible for analysis of returns related to reasons for returns, resulting replacement orders, recommendations for improving pricing or internal processes to reduce returns.

Infor LX now stores the Net Price for a deleted line, so that the information is available for later analysis.

If an order line is canceled, LX stores the current Net Price in a new Net Price Archive field. The Net Price Archive field is updated whether the line is deleted through Line Entry (ORD700D2) or Fast Line Entry (ORD700DA), or the entire transaction is deleted through Order, Quote or RMA Directory (ORD700D1).

The Net Price Archive field can be useful when analyzing the reasons for canceled order lines. Users can define Cancellation Reason Codes related to pricing. Review of the archived Net Price, along with other values from canceled order lines such as Order Quantity and Selling Unit of Measure, Cancellation Reason Code, Request Date, Price Book Date, Item Number and Customer Number, can lead to adjustments to pricing structures, promotion qualifiers or other actions that can avoid loss of revenue on future orders, or follow-up actions to recover the canceled line.

If so, those manual shipping steps are likely costing you time, money, and customer satisfaction:

❌ Re-entering shipping details into Baan or Infor LN

❌ Copy-pasting tracking numbers

❌ Delayed invoicing and frustrated customers

There’s a better way to manage your parcel shipping.

The Results Are Clear:

Use this session to define simulated purchase prices for purchased items per site.

Field Information:

• Cost Calculation Code - price calculation code
• Item

The raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, and sold.

An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit, or which exist in multiple product variants.

You can also define nonphysical items, which are not retained in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. The examples of nonphysical items:

• Cost items (for example, electricity)
• Service items
• Subcontracting services
• List items (menus/options)
   
• ​Site - The site for which the purchase price is simulated.
• Purchase Currency - The currency of the simulated purchase price.
• Simulated Price - Purchase price

The simulated purchase price and currency are recorded twice.

• Simulated Price Multi Currency - The purchase price in multiple currencies.

The simulated purchase price and currency are recorded twice. The amount in this field is related to the price of the supplier.

• Unit - Purchase price unit
• Cost Component - The cost component that must be of the type Material Costs.

Note: The cost component specified in this field does not become part of the standard cost detail structure if it is part of the cost component scheme of the selected item. If calculations are performed with a calculation code not used for actualization (simulations only), the simulated purchase price is mapped to the cost component defined in the records for this session.
