Infor LX/BPCS Tips & Tricks for EXECUTIVES

TECHNICAL: Synchronize users from LX to SiM in batch

This enhancement improves performance by submitting to batch the automatic synchronization of changes from LX user maintenance (SYS600) to System i Manager (SiM). During LX user maintenance, there are now three possible approaches to synchronizing the LX user changes to SiM, controlled by system parameters. Synchronizing LX user changes to SiM in batch allows the person executing SYS600 to continue with additional maintenance or other transactions without waiting for the synchronization to finish.


FINANCE: Inventory Transaction History to Ledger Book Journal Line Relationship

This enhancement provides IDF relationships from Inventory Transaction History (ITH) to Ledger Book Subsystem Transaction (GXR) and from Ledger Book Subsystem Transaction (GXR) to Ledger Book Journal Line. To implement this enhancement, request and apply MR 81558.

This enhancement provided the following relationships:

  • Inventory Transaction History
  • Relationship to Ledger Book Subsystem Transaction (1 to Many) Default view ‘General’
  • Ledger Book Subsystem card Default view ‘Inventory Processing’
  • Default subset ‘Inventory Processing’

This enhancement provides users with complete traceability from inventory transactions (ITH) to ledger book journal lines (GLH), regardless of how many ledgers are used and journals created. Due to the bi-directional relationship, users can see the source ITH detail from the journal lines.

OPERATIONS: Infor Business Context (IBC) messages for INV500 

This enhancement adds publication of IBC messages to additional LX screens. While entering data on the primary screen for inventory transactions, IBC message are now published and available for use in Ming.le contextual applications.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Tips: LN | Baan

Companies can decide to involve a subcontractor and subcontract part of their activities. The subcontractor carries out the work and returns the products to your company.

In Infor LN, subcontracting is considered as purchasing labor from a third party. Therefore, if a manufacturer wants to subcontract work, he must generate a purchase order to start the subcontracting process. These are the types of subcontracting:

  • Subcontracting with material flow
    • Operation subcontracting: For operation subcontracting, a part of the production process (one or more operations) is subcontracted.
    • Item subcontracting: For item subcontracting, an item's entire production process is subcontracted. Therefore, it is always used with material flow support.
  • Subcontracting without material flow: The simplest form of subcontracting is to generate a subcontracting purchase order to record the operations outsourced to a subcontractor. The subcontracting purchase order only represents the administrative handling of the subcontracting process. When the subcontracted item is received back from the subcontractor, you must close the subcontracting purchase order, which initiates the production process.
  • Unplanned subcontracting: Unplanned subcontracting is applicable when you subcontract after generating a production order. For unplanned subcontracting, a purchase order is generated from the production order and the material supply lines are populated by Shop Floor Control.
  • Service subcontracting: For service subcontracting, work on an item to be maintained or repaired is subcontracted. This work entails the entire repair process, or only a part of it. Service subcontracting can be used with or without material flow support.

To start the subcontracting process, a purchase order is required.
