The Impact of Disconnected Data Across Your Organization

Operations Impact:

• The warehouse manager’s spreadsheet tracking inventory levels and supplier shipments is disconnected from your ERP.
• Dealer Portal Email orders need to be manually entered into the system.

Finance Impact:

• Budgeting data is maintained in isolated spreadsheets, unlinked to quotes or sales figures in your ERP.
• Open purchase orders and invoices need manual matching and approval, creating inefficiencies.

Technology Impact:

• A large number of reports must be generated outside the ERP for teams to stay "up to date."
• Valuable time is spent exporting ERP data for analysis in external data cubes.

Executive Impact:

• Compiling an accurate picture of inventory and financial health is a struggle when data comes from multiple sources.
• Lack of visibility to inventory shortages results in losing customers due to stockouts or delays.

Role-Based Security introduces Role type profiles and allows combining the use of Role profiles with the traditional LX User type security profile functionality. The new Role type profile can be defined to allow or deny access to All Products, Attention Key, Products, Programs, and Transaction Effects. Facility, Warehouse, and Company securities are still defined solely by the User profile settings and are not affected by the assignment of a Role. Where applicable, the Role authority is displayed alongside the User authority on the security profile maintenance screens making it easy to see where there are differences in authority between the User and the assigned Roles. 

When Users are assigned to Roles, security access in LX becomes a combination of authorities granted or denied by the Role, plus any User Exceptions. User Exceptions override authorities set by the Roles. A User can also be assigned to more than one Role.

This enhancement provides a method to post material, labor, and overhead values on inventory postings to the general ledger to meet financial reporting requirements. The solution provides an optional further breakdown of cost by cost bucket using the new G/L Cost Type.

Shelf Life Days and Retest Days
This feature provides the ability to enter information in the shelf life days and retest days fields for non-QMS lot controlled items, even when the QMS product is installed. The purpose of this enhancement is to allow the user to enter information for non-QMS lot controlled items even when QMS is activated in Parameters Generation, SYS800D.

In previous versions, when QMS was activated, the Shelf Life Days and Retest Days fields in Facility Planning Maintenance (MRP140) and Item Master Maintenance (INV100) were not maintainable for non-QMS lot controlled items.
