Why should you look at OTTO? Let’s see what an OTTO customer has to say:

"When first introduced to OTTO, for on-time ordering, you could not prove to me that there was a better system out there than what we already had. Boy what a big wakeup call! Being in a very option intensive business and the economy in a very flat or negative state, OTTO is the BEST tool to quickly respond to a customer’s needs TODAY. When Millions of dollars are at stake each month, we have to be better prepared to meet the task at hand with fewer people. OTTO is really doing this for us!  What normally took us hours or days to identify several indented bill of material shortages now only takes a few moments with the OTTO program. What this really means is that, we do not have to wait for MRP to run each week to plan and reschedule orders. This can be done today!  What I’m really saying is that, we can advise Purchasing and Scheduling TODAY without waiting for TOMORROW.  We are now able to ship DOLLARS this month and satisfy our CUSTOMERS. Without OTTO in some cases, the Customer would have to wait until next month and potential revenue dollars lost for the month."  Gary Hawk, Planning Manager - construction equipment

You can create new macros in the Infor LX Configurable Enterprise Financials CEA107. 

On the Macro Definition window, you define the source file and the field in which you perform an arithmetic or special operation. For example, you can create a macro to accrue sales commission based on revenue. Your source file and field are the Invoice Line History (SIL) file and the G/L revenue (ILREV) field. 

Select Functions to access the Macro Functions window, on which you define the arithmetic, character, or special operation to process against the defined source field. In the previous example of accrued sales commission, you enter an arithmetic operation of multiply (*) and an operand value for the percentage, such as 0.05 for five percent. 

Note:  Previously created user defined macros will have to be updated to include any expanded field sizes in V84.
