Infor LN & Baan Tip: Serialized Controlled Item >> to >> Non-Serialized Controlled item

Changing an item from serialized to not serialized can only be done by unchecking the Serialized flag in session Item - General (tcibd0101s000). 
The conditions for this are:

  • On Hand inventory is 0.00
  • On Order inventory is 0.00
  • Allocated inventory is 0.00

There are no records in the Inventory Transactions by item (whinr1510m000). Instead of removing all allocations and inventory, a new item may be created to replace the serialized item via the session Alternative Items (tcibd0505m000). Alternatively, the item can be converted from serialized in inventory to serialized not in inventory. 

In Item – Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) all the serial registration flags can be set to “No” and a Lot and Serial Registration Template (whwmd4102m000) can be linked in which all registration is explicitly excluded. In this way, although still serialized, the item is not subject to any serial registration and acts like a not serialized item.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Did you know that you can set up one-time vendors in LX? One Time Vendor (1,A): Specify Y to indicate that this vendor is a one-time vendor. Otherwise, could you specify N. The system removes a one-time vendor's information from the Vendor Master file after all transactions are reconciled. If this vendor already exists as a one-time vendor, you can specify N to change the vendor to a regular vendor.

Determining whether to use Master Production Schedule (MPS) planning or Material Requirements Planning (MRP) planning for items in Infor LX and BPCS involves understanding the nature of the items and their demand characteristics.

Master Scheduled Items typically encompass finished goods or service items. These items receive their requirements either from Independent demand, Dependent demand, or a combination of both...

Tips: LN | Baan

While it might be accurate (and I emphasize "might"), is a Manual Physical Inventory the optimal approach? Best practices unequivocally say otherwise!

A superior alternative is the adoption of Cycle Counting. Why choose Cycle Counting over a complete physical inventory? This method zeroes in on a selected stock range, allowing concurrent execution with a company's regular operations. Cycle Counts offers a streamlined approach to inventory management, minimizing disruptions to processes related to stock receipt, consumption, or dispatch.

The dreaded "freeze" is no longer a necessity, sparing your staff from extended holiday hours, and ensuring accurate inventory counts throughout the year! Crossroads RMC is poised to assist you in implementing Cycle Counting efficiently and effortlessly.
