Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for OPERATIONS: Using Country of Origin for Purchase Orders

For purchase orders, information about the COO allows you to track the related import duties, tariffs, and compliance with sourcing requirements. You can maintain the COO of an item when creating an order or the release level of a purchase order.

When you create a purchase order line in the Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) session, the COO related details are defaulted based on the item-purchase data defined in the Items - Purchase (tdipu0101m000) session. To view this data, you can use the Country of Origin option from the References menu in the Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) session.

After the order line is released to Warehousing, an inbound line is created in the Inbound Order Lines (whinh2110m000) session with the COO information. A receipt line is created in the Warehouse Receipt Lines (whinh3512m100) session when the inbound order line is received. To view the actual COO for the item specified on the receipt line, you can use the Country of Origin option from the References menu in this session.

You can view the country of origin (COO) data for the inventory received in a warehouse in the Item - Country of Origin Inventory (tcitu6600m000) session based on the data specified in the header section such as, warehouse, item, and so on.

In the Inventory Tracking Receipt (tcitu2610m000) session, you can view the information related to the purchase order, inventory quantity, and actual COO of the item. You can use the Intrastat Transactions (tccom7171m000) session to view the COO that is reported for an order line and is used for the Intrastat declaration.

The Cycle Counting Sub-System Within Inventory Management

The system uses the following information as the basis for cycle counting selection:

  • Cycle Counts/Year: The system calculates the time between cycle counts based on your entry in this Item Master file field for each item (optional).
  • Last Cycle Count Date: This date is in the Location Inventory file, ILI, if you use locations, or in the Warehouse Inventory file, IWI, if you don't.

The system adds the time between cycle counts (calculated as described above) to this date. If the result is less than or equal to today's date, the item is selected for cycle counting. If it is greater than today's date, the item is not selected, it is not due yet for cycle counting.

There is another special condition that causes an item to be selected for cycle counting. If the ILI/IWI record of the item has a Y in the Cycle Flag field, the item is selected automatically. This flag indicates that the item's on-hand balance has gone to a negative value sometime since the last cycle count. That applies even if the value is not negative at selection time. The programs that can set this field are INV500D, INV510, and BIL540.

You can also limit the items selected for counting by specifying limits of the item numbers or warehouses to be searched.
