Infor LX & BPCS Materials Tip: Unique ID Generator / Unique Sequence Number

Serial Number Unique ID Generator - The new Serial Number Unique ID Generator program (INV599B3) is used to generate a unique value that groups a set of serial numbers that should be treated as part of a single, comprehensive set of inventory transactions.

Assign Unique Sequence Number - The new Assign Unique Sequence Number program (SYS046B) is used by any program that posts an inventory transaction, that is, writes an ITH record, to assign an absolutely unique and unchanging sequence number for each ITH record about to be written. SYS046B follows these steps to create the unique sequence number: 1 Reads the Item Serialization Extension file (IME) to retrieve the last unique sequence number used 2 Increments the last unique sequence number by one 3 Updates the IME record with this incremented last unique sequence number 4 Returns this incremented last unique sequence number to the calling program.
