Is Your ERP System Hurting Your Business?

The Importance of an Integrated System

It could be if your ERP system isn't integrated with other systems that contain mission-critical business data.

Having data in two (or more) systems that don’t talk to one another is like baking a pizza crust in one oven and the toppings in another. Once baked, you may have food to snack on, but it sure isn’t pizza! Pizza requires the cheese, sauce and spices to bake with the crust, so all the flavors meld together when you take that first delicious bite. 

That’s the value of an integrated ERP system. When you take a bite, you get a complete representation of the flavors… meaning, you get one version of the truth. Everything comes together, so you can analyze critical business data in the most efficient way with no disconnects.

Crossroads RMC's Consultants have spent many years developing integrations that tie countless different systems to Infor ERPs.

Here are some integration examples:

  • UPS / FedEx / DPD
  • Kardex Power Pick Global
  • Avalara Tax Management
  • Subway/Moe’s Ord Mgmt
  • Davisware
  • Bartender Label Gen
  • Concur
  • AP Advantage
  • ADP Payroll Integration
  • SmartEquip
  • Nazdaq Output Mgmt
  • SigmaNEST
  • Internal Sales Portals
  • CorVu / Rocket Software
  • Robot Morning
  • Modula
  • Salesforce
  • Nexus

What business-critical systems do you have that are not connected to your Infor ERP system?

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Tips: LN | Baan

Use this session to define simulated purchase prices for purchased items per site.

Field Information:

  • Cost Calculation Code - price calculation code
  • Item

The raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, and sold.

An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit, or which exist in multiple product variants.

You can also define nonphysical items, which are not retained in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. The examples of nonphysical items:

  • Cost items (for example, electricity)
  • Service items
  • Subcontracting services
  • List items (menus/options)
     
  • ​Site - The site for which the purchase price is simulated.
  • Purchase Currency - The currency of the simulated purchase price.
  • Simulated Price - Purchase price

The simulated purchase price and currency are recorded twice.

  • Simulated Price Multi Currency - The purchase price in multiple currencies.

The simulated purchase price and currency are recorded twice. The amount in this field is related to the price of the supplier.

  • Unit - Purchase price unit
  • Cost Component - The cost component that must be of the type Material Costs.

Note: The cost component specified in this field does not become part of the standard cost detail structure if it is part of the cost component scheme of the selected item. If calculations are performed with a calculation code not used for actualization (simulations only), the simulated purchase price is mapped to the cost component defined in the records for this session.
