Pushing Forward In the Face of Adversity. Soundview recently suffered a major loss when fire struck on January 30, 2019.

Soundview Paper lost their main building when disaster struck. This building housed offices, their computer center and part of their manufacturing facility. The loss including hardware, networks, system data backups, etc. Crossroads RMC was contacted immediately to assist in the recovery of their BPCS V6 system. With limited backups and a full team effort, Crossroads RMC assisted in the acquisition of new hardware and are currently in the midst of helping to bring their system back to life. Soundview has secured support from various partners to make all this happen, and we are privileged to be part of the team. A lot of work has been done so far, but we have a long road ahead. Users will soon regain access by the end of this week,  and as required, Crossroads RMC will provide the necessary consulting support from our LX team to get Soundview back up and running. We are communicating with them daily, as we work thru this process.

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
