Infor LX / BPCS Tips & Tricks for Operations: Retain Lot Status on Shipped Resupply Orders

George Moroses 0 13783 Article rating: 5.0

When a lot is completely shipped on a customer order, the Lot Status is changed to Z. Since a resupply order must still be received in the To Warehouse to complete the transaction, do not update the lot status when the resupply order is shipped. If a lot is completely shipped on a resupply order, LX no longer updates the lot status to Z, because the shipped lot retains its current lot status, the additional steps, no additional steps are required to receive it in the To Warehouse.

Infor LX & BPCS Tip: Capacity Planning – Resource Requirements Reports

Resource Requirements Report (CAP260D) generates five capacity reports:

  • Labor Resource Requirements
  • Machine Resource Requirements
  • Setup Resource Requirements
  • Setup and Labor Requirements
  • Setup and Machine Requirements

The Labor Resource Requirement report lists requirements that are calculated from the run hours on each routing and the MRP/MPS demand in the Capacity Requirements Detail File (LCR). The calculation does not consider crew size.

The Machine Resource Requirement report lists machine hour requirements based on routings and the MRP/MPS demand in the Capacity Requirements Detail File (LCR).

The Setup Resource Requirements report lists setup labor requirements based on routings and the MRP/MPS demand in the Capacity Requirements Detail File (LCR).

The last two reports combine setup hours with labor hours and setup hours with machine hours to provide two separate reports that summarize the requirements by work center with totals by department. The system computes requirements similarly to the way it computes them on the other reports.
