Infor LX & BPCS Tip: How to handle “ZERO COST” items

When I try to enter a 3-way match invoice with zero cost items, I get an error 'Must have value/cost entry.

Resolution
ACP500 requires a positive value to create a 'C' transaction when entering a 3-way match invoice. If you are receiving inventory items for free (no charge) and have a purchase order for it and need to include the quantity in inventory, you should first receive your items through PUR550 using something like a 'U' transaction. Then, you would enter a 'C' transaction with the quantity and zero cost through PUR550. This will change the status of the line in the HPO file to '3', fully received and costed. Once this is completed, you will be able to enter an invoice for your zero-cost item through ACP500 without getting the error message 'Must have value/cost entry.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

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.

Enables integration between LX and Infor OS Federation Services (IFS) to automate user provisioning.

  • Bi-directional user synchronization between Infor OS and LX:

    • Infor OS user creation or changes automatically create or update users in LX.

    • IBM i user profiles can be created if needed.

    • Updates to SYS600 user data are reflected in Infor OS.

  • Security Role Integration:

    • LX Security Roles and Units are published as IFS Security Roles via SyncSecurityRoleMaster BODs.

    • LX receives inbound SyncSecurityUserMaster BODs from IFS to create or update user records in SYS600.

    • SYS600 Exit Points trigger ProcessSecurityUserMaster BODs to request user creation or updates in IFS on behalf of LX.

Available Versions: 8.3.5, 8.4.1, 8.4.2
