FINANCE: Override Warning in Invoice Entry PO Costing

OPERATIONS: Auto Calculate Vendor Delivery Date

TECHNOLOGY: User Provisioning

Improves control over PO costing changes during invoice entry by replacing passive warnings with an intentional override action.

• In ACP500D3 (Invoice Entry PO Costing), users previously could unintentionally accept changes by pressing ENTER, even when quantity to cost or amount to cost values had changed.

• A new “F14 to Override” warning message replaces the old message:
  “Details have changed. Press enter again to accept data.”
  This ensures users acknowledge and confirm significant changes explicitly.

New System Parameter:

• “Apply GRN Costing Tolerance for PO Costing” (optional):

  • Within tolerance: Displays the original message —
    “Details have changed. Press enter again to accept data.”

  • Outside tolerance: Triggers the new override requirement —
    “F14 to Override”

Benefits:

• Enhances oversight and reduces unintentional cost acceptance.

• Enables better control of PO costs when invoice details differ from expectations.

You know what data you need to analyze your company’s financial health, but sometimes it is a struggle to get that data in a format that is meaningful. Here are some reports in Baan IV, Baan V, and Infor LN which you may find useful.

As is the case with most ERP reports, with each version progression from Baan IV, to Baan V, to LN, there are improvements in selection criteria and report content. Some may require some setup and others may require some formatting if you would like to export them to Excel.  Contact me if you have questions or need assistance.
