Kathy Barthelt 0 55684 Article rating: 5.0

A cash flow statement provides a historical view of the movement of cash within a company. This statement offers an overview of both the origins and destinations of cash, aiding management in evaluating the company's ability to fulfill short-term financial obligations. To differentiate between various sources and uses of cash, reason codes can be utilized. When interacting with cash transactions in relevant sessions, users have the option to input or review the corresponding cash flow reason.

Infor LN & Baan Tip: Considerations for Release to Warehousing for a Cost Item

Kathy Barthelt 0 53629 Article rating: 5.0

When there are two Cost Items, one with Release to Warehousing applied and the other with Release to Warehousing not applied, upon approval of the Sales Order, the Cost Item that is released to Warehousing will go straight to Staged status, pending Shipment confirmation, while the Cost Item that is not released to Warehousing will be up for Sales Deliveries.

Reskilling and Upskilling Your Staff – Why You Shouldn’t Ignore This

Crossroads RMC 0 13380 Article rating: 5.0

According to the World Economic Forum, half of all employees will require significant reskilling or upskilling by 2025.

For many of you, your Infor ERP system was implemented 5, 10, 15, or 20+ years ago, and now there are only a handful of people left from that implementation if any at all.

Infor LX & BPCS Tip: Automated Approach to Your Cash Application Process with ARP

Advanced Remittance Processing, ARP, provides an automated approach to your cash application process. ARP works together with Accounts Receivable to save valuable time and resources by automatically applying incoming payments to open receivables during daily batch processing. You can easily and efficiently resolve unapplied remittances online.

Advanced Remittance Processing (ARP) is an automatic cash application process that allows you to perform the following functions:

  • Receive lockbox deposits electronically from your banks on the day the payments are deposited
  • Automatically apply the majority of the day's receipts to open items in accounts receivable in one batch process
  • Perform online disposition of exceptions the system encounters during the automatic cash application process
  • Generate a complete set of daily reports and maintain historical deposit and payment information online to allow you to audit all cash applications

The ARP automatic cash application process can be summarized in a series of operations that highlight the labor savings provided. ARP processing requires some setup to ensure that the process operates as efficiently as possible.

ARP allows you to perform the following operations:

  • Receive/Edit Bank Transmission of Lockbox Deposits
  • Identify/Assign Customer Numbers
  • Select Customer Open Items
  • Summarize Open Items Extracted
  • Check Application Against Open Items
  • Produce Reports Recapping Check Application Process
  • Create Disposition and On-Account Payment Records
  • Report Check Differences
  • Create Applied Checks Interface Records to Accounts Receivable
  • Flag Disposition Records as Temporarily Paid on Ledger File
  • Update A/R Ledger and Audit Files
  • Open Item Extraction
