George Moroses / Tuesday, September 15, 2020 / Categories: Infor ERP Tips, Infor LX & BPCS Tips Infor LX & BPCS Tip of the Week: Installing WebTop Over LX If you plan to use Infor WebTop, the WebTop version 4.7 or above is required when running LX 8.4. Also, acquire and install the latest WebTop 4.7 patches from Infor Xtreme prior to running LX WebTop. WebTop 4.7 can be applied to your existing environments before you install 8.4.0. If this is completed before installing LX 8.4 then the LX install will take care of much of the Webtop server configuration automatically, including installing the LX Webtop metadata, updating WEB_ENV, and including the Webtop Platform library in the INLIBL data area as part of the environment setup. If you choose to install WebTop after the LX 8.4 installation is completed, the “Infor LX 8.4 Webtop 4.7 Configuration Guide” will guide you through all the configuration steps to set up Webtop for your LX environment.

10Jun2025 Infor LX / BPCS Tips & Tricks for OPERATIONS: Auto Calculate Vendor Delivery Date Tuesday, June 10, 2025 Read more Enhances purchase order efficiency by automatically calculating the Vendor Delivery Date based on user input. When a purchase order line is created, the user enters the item, order quantity, and Due Date. LX automatically calculates the Vendor Delivery Date, adding buffer time for quality control, testing, and inspection activities. If the Due Date is revised, an informational message prompts the user to review and potentially update the Vendor Delivery Date. Enhancements: A new PUR820 system parameter enables automatic recalculation of the Vendor Delivery Date. Instead of a manual reminder, PUR500 now issues a message: “Vendor Delivery Date recalculated,” showing the updated date. Benefits: Eliminates the need to manually review and update the Vendor Delivery Date. Removes the need to delete and recreate PO lines to trigger automatic date calculation. Read more
