Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for TECHNOLOGY: Impact of Configuration Changes on Audit Trails

Kathy Barthelt 0 51741 Article rating: 5.0

Impact of Configuration Changes on Audit Trails

The impact of changes in the audit settings varies depending on the specific circumstances. The issues typically arise when changes made to audit settings are implemented at runtime without requiring all users to exit the system (LN). As a result, some users may continue to generate audit trails using the old configuration, while those who log in after the changes take effect will create audit trails based on the new configuration.

Changes in User Profiles

Below is a summary table that illustrates the effects of these changes for a specific table within a company:

Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for OPERATIONS: Using Country of Origin for Purchase Orders

Kathy Barthelt 0 52661 Article rating: 5.0

For purchase orders, information about the COO allows you to track the related import duties, tariffs, and compliance with sourcing requirements. You can maintain the COO of an item when creating an order or the release level of a purchase order.

When you create a purchase order line in the Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) session, the COO related details are defaulted based on the item-purchase data defined in the Items - Purchase (tdipu0101m000) session. To view this data, you can use the Country of Origin option from the References menu in the Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) session.

After the order line is released to Warehousing, an inbound line is created in the Inbound Order Lines (whinh2110m000) session with the COO information. A receipt line is created in the Warehouse Receipt Lines (whinh3512m100) session when the inbound order line is received. To view the actual COO for the item specified on the receipt line, you can use the Country of Origin option from the References menu in this session.

You can view the country of origin (COO) data for the inventory received in a warehouse in the Item - Country of Origin Inventory (tcitu6600m000) session based on the data specified in the header section such as, warehouse, item, and so on.

In the Inventory Tracking Receipt (tcitu2610m000) session, you can view the information related to the purchase order, inventory quantity, and actual COO of the item. You can use the Intrastat Transactions (tccom7171m000) session to view the COO that is reported for an order line and is used for the Intrastat declaration.

Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for FINANCE: Remap Posted Integration Transactions (tfgld4282m100)

Kathy Barthelt 0 51616 Article rating: 5.0

Use this session to remap Posted transactions that were mapped incorrectly.

To remap integration transactions successfully, several conditions must be fulfilled. For details, refer to To remap integration transactions.

Enter the ranges of selection criteria for the integration transaction or range of integration transactions to be remapped. You can select the integration transactions of a range of business objects or of a specific business object.

You must select a specific integration document type or an integration document type group.

To evaluate the remapping before you perform the actual remapping, you can select the Simulate check box and the Error Report check box. After you solve the errors, you can run the session again and clear the Simulate check box.

After remapping the integration transactions, you can use the Post Integration Transactions (tfgld4282m000) session to create the postings in the General Ledger.

Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for TECHNOLOGY: Archiving Concept

Kathy Barthelt 0 98699 Article rating: 5.0

Companies are developing procedures for entering data into an ERP system and for archiving manuals, drawings, specs, and other hard-copy documents. However, in many cases there is no defined procedures to store historical electronic data. Archiving electronic data should be an integral part of your business processes. 

Generally, archiving is the process of moving historical data from the operational environment to a special archive environment. At home, you might move old bank statements from a closet in your study to a box in the attic. At the office, you might store old hard copies of purchase orders in a room far from your own desk. Just because you no longer need the information in your daily work, does not mean you can dispose of the information. In terms of electronic data in your ERP system, archiving means moving historic data from the operational company to a special archive company; in that way, the historic data will be out of your way and safely stored. To free up disk space on your machine after you have archived the data, you can also move the historic data to an external medium.

Infor LN & Baan Tip: All About Invoicing Methods

Invoicing Methods are a set of parameters that define the types of orders and order lines that can be collected on an invoice, the type of invoice to be generated and the costs to be aggregated on Project invoices and Service invoices.

If options to combine tax codes, departments, sales representatives' line of business area, etc... are checked, LN will combine all available transactions ready to be invoiced that have different tax codes departments, sales representatives, etc...into only one invoice.

If options to combine sales orders, sales order types, and shipments are checked then all sales orders that are created for the same business partner where the shipment and/or sales order type is different will be combined into one invoice.

For example:

  1. If sales order SLS001 is created for BP BP1000 with 2 lines where each line has a different shipment number, and the invoice method is combining shipments, both lines will be part of the same invoice. If the option to combine shipments is not checked then LN will create an invoice per shipment.
  2. If sales order SLS001 is created for BP BP1000 with 2 lines and 2 different shipment numbers and sales order SLS002 is created for the same BP with a cost item, LN will create one invoice for both orders if the option to combine sales orders and shipments is checked. If only the option to combine sales orders is checked then 3 different invoices will be created as all 3 lines will have different shipment numbers. If they have different sales order types and this option is not checked on the invoice method session then also 3 invoices will be created but if it is checked along with sales order and shipment number then only one invoice will be created.
  3. If we take scenario 1 again and both lines have different tax codes and the option to combine tax codes is not selected then LN will create a separate invoice for each line based on the tax code.
     

Note: In the case that the Business Partner Tax Country is different, even if we select combine tax codes, the system will create a separate invoice based on the Business Partner Country to full the statutory compliances for that BP country.
