Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for OPERATIONS: WebTop Grid Support Enhancement for MRP320D

George Moroses 0 275 Article rating: 5.0

Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for OPERATIONS: Pegging Material Supply Lines for Operation and Product Subcontracting

Kathy Barthelt 0 1184 Article rating: 5.0

For project pegged production orders, operations can be subcontracted. The material delivered to the subcontractor can be project pegged or anonymous. The subassemblies sent and retrieved are always project pegged. Costing breaks can be applied to direct the costs of the subcontracted operation to a specific project cost account. If (production material) costing breaks are used, a purchase order line's peg can differ from the peg on the material supply line.

For product subcontracting, the subcontracted purchase orders can include materials that inherit the project pegs or can include anonymous materials. The pegged materials are stored in inventory and are shipped to the subcontractor with project pegged orders.

In case of a project pegged order, a peg distribution is linked to the Purchase Order Material Supply Line in the...

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

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:

Change Description Impact
Add a table Users that still use the old settings do not audit some transactions.
Remove a table Some transactions that must not be audited with the new settings are still audited by users that use the old settings.
Change the audit type for a table or field Some transactions are audited according to the old settings, and other transactions are audited according to the new settings.
Add or remove a field After you audit transactions in the table with the new settings, users that use the old settings can no longer perform transactions on this table. Therefore, users with the old settings can be forced to restart LN.

Note on Changes in Field-Specific Auditing:
When you toggle field-specific auditing on or off for a table, which alters the number of fields being audited, the effect is analogous to adding or removing a field. However, not every modification to the audit settings impacts the runtime settings. Converting the new settings to runtime might result in no net change for the entire configuration if the overall effect of the adjustments neutralizes each other.
