Infor LN & Baan Tip: Backflushing of Materials & Hours

Why do I sometimes see small decimal quantities remaining after backflush?

This behavior is largely caused by differences in decimal quantities allowed in inventory units versus the display format of the data. Having different display formats with different rounding for material quantities and warehouse line quantities means that since these quantities interact, if one is rounded more strictly and the other is not, then the rounded quantity is being propagated to the other quantity, thus resulting in a loss of decimals. As a result, it is advised to not use different formats and rounding settings for material quantities and warehouse line quantities.

FINANCE: Prevent Voiding of Selected Invoices
This enhancement prevents users from voiding invoices after they have been selected for payment. If a user selects an invoice for payment and another user voids the invoice during the payment process, it can produce erroneous and duplicate records. The ACP500 programs were modified to check the status of an invoice before it can be voided. If the invoice has been selected for payment, a message is generated, and the invoice cannot be voided.

OPERATIONS: Copy Shop Order
In the Shop Order Selection program, action 3=Copy is available. This action allows copying any shop order except for flow orders or campaign orders. Instead of copying from the parent item's bill of material and routing, the new shop order’s materials and operations will be copied from the selected shop order. Note that if the existing shop order is linked to a customer order or line, this linkage will not be copied to the new shop order.

TECHNOLOGY: Group Security for ILM501 Inbound Delivery Maintenance
Add function key / action code security to control who is authorized to create/revise/delete functions in ILM501 Inbound Delivery Maintenance.  With added Group Security, managers can control which users are authorized to create, change and delete deliveries in ILM501 Inbound Delivery Maintenance.
