Infor LN & Baan Tip: Cash Flow Functionality and Setup

Kathy Barthelt 0 61101 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. The cash flow statement organizes cash transactions based on these reasons. LN software system maintains year-specific opening balances for cash flow transactions. Should the need arise, users can manually input opening balances in the Opening Balance Cash Flow (tfgld2118m000) session.

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

Kathy Barthelt 0 63265 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.

Apart from this main difference in functionality between having and not having this option to release to Warehousing checked, there are other impacts to consider...

Crossroads RMC 0 15344 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.

"Apologies, boss, but at the moment, we are unable to contribute to advancing the business."

Infor LX | BPCS | Infor LN | Baan

Imagine delivering this message to your boss or the company president. What would their response likely be? It's improbable that they would respond with, "That's perfectly fine; we can delay implementing this significant initiative that could potentially save us a substantial amount of money and give us a competitive edge. Please let us know when you have the availability to work on it." In reality, they would probably want you to add this new task to your already overflowing to-do list, wouldn't they?

Nonetheless, you'd probably comply because it's the responsible thing to do and it's crucial for the company. But what happens to all the other tasks you were initially supposed to work on? They end up lingering on your to-do list indefinitely.

But what if they didn't have to remain in limbo? What if you could shift your focus to critical projects that propel the business forward while still managing the lower-priority tasks that still need attention? This is where outsourced IT and ERP support services come into play.

Managing ERP systems is undeniably intricate and time-intensive, and staying ahead of issues to identify, prevent, and resolve them before they escalate is essential. Can you truly afford to set aside this critical work for something else?
