Infor LX & BPCS Tip: How to handle “ZERO COST” items

When I try to enter a 3-way match invoice with zero cost items, I get an error 'Must have value/cost entry.

Resolution
ACP500 requires a positive value to create a 'C' transaction when entering a 3-way match invoice. If you are receiving inventory items for free (no charge) and have a purchase order for it and need to include the quantity in inventory, you should first receive your items through PUR550 using something like a 'U' transaction. Then, you would enter a 'C' transaction with the quantity and zero cost through PUR550. This will change the status of the line in the HPO file to '3', fully received and costed. Once this is completed, you will be able to enter an invoice for your zero-cost item through ACP500 without getting the error message 'Must have value/cost entry.

Some items in the manufacturing process may require a lot number. A quick and easy way to release the Shop Orders with lot numbers is by using the Multi-Level Shop Order Release.

Simply select the end item from the selection screen and use action 10 for the multi-level order release. At the bottom of the release screen is the field “Pre-Assign a Lot Number to Shop Orders”. Select 1 for the pre-assigned lot number assignment option.

This option will use the pre-assigned lot number on the shop order, if the lot number exists. If the lot number does not exist, the system will automatically create a lot number and assign it to the shop order for all items that are lot-controlled.
