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
