Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Did you know that you can set up one-time vendors in LX? One Time Vendor (1,A): Specify Y to indicate that this vendor is a one-time vendor. Otherwise, could you specify N. The system removes a one-time vendor's information from the Vendor Master file after all transactions are reconciled. If this vendor already exists as a one-time vendor, you can specify N to change the vendor to a regular vendor.

Is Your ERP System Hurting Your Business?

The Importance of an Integrated System

It could be if your ERP system isn't integrated with other systems that contain mission-critical business data.

Having data in two (or more) systems that don’t talk to one another is like baking a pizza crust in one oven and the toppings in another. Once baked, you may have food to snack on, but it sure isn’t pizza! Pizza requires the cheese, sauce and spices to bake with the crust, so all the flavors meld together when you take that first delicious bite. 

That’s the value of an integrated ERP system. When you take a bite, you get a complete representation of the flavors… meaning, you get one version of the truth. Everything comes together, so you can analyze critical business data in the most efficient way with no disconnects.

Crossroads RMC's Consultants have spent many years developing integrations that tie countless different systems to Infor ERPs.

Here are some integration examples:

  • UPS / FedEx / DPD
  • Kardex Power Pick Global
  • Avalara Tax Management
  • Subway/Moe’s Ord Mgmt
  • Davisware
  • Bartender Label Gen
  • Concur
  • AP Advantage
  • ADP Payroll Integration
  • SmartEquip
  • Nazdaq Output Mgmt
  • SigmaNEST
  • Internal Sales Portals
  • CorVu / Rocket Software
  • Robot Morning
  • Modula
  • Salesforce
  • Nexus

What business-critical systems do you have that are not connected to your Infor ERP system?

Contact us to discuss an integration of your mission-critical business systems, and while you’re at it, grab a slice of pizza for lunch! U+1F355
