Infor LX & BPCS Tip: What is IDF and Why Do I Need It?

George Moroses 0 27608 Article rating: 5.0

The Infor Development Framework (IDF) re-architects the way a user interacts with the application by providing an efficient, task-oriented process to view the application information that is contained within Infor LX. IDF enables users to configure their view of the application data without modifying the core application and its supportability.

The examples below describe how users can configure their display of data and maximize overall productivity:

  • Arrange application information into multiple groupings and sequences that make sense for the job.
  • Hide information that does not apply to a particular job or task.
  • Filter records to show only the information that applies to the job or task that the user is performing.
  • Customize the information for an individual user, for a group of users, or for all users.

To get more details on how IDF can benefit your company, please contact Anthony Etzel today!

BPCS/LX Tip of the Day: LX Inventory Pallet Status Flow

Four fields in the Item/Warehouse record (IIW file) affect the disposition of the

pallet status.

 

1.  Goods Receiving Code: You define these codes in Goods Receiving Maintenance (WHM130). The codes control whether or not the stock passes through inspection, what percentage, or quantity of a delivery to inspect, and the number of quarantine days, if any.

 

2.  Inspection Zone/Inspection Location: Either the Inspection Zone or the Inspection Location must be entered on the Item/Warehouse Master Maintenance screen WHM150D2-01.

 

3.  Default Inventory Status: If the status is 0 (Received) or 1 (Inspection), the item moves from the receiving location to the inspection location in inspection status. If the pallet status is not 0 or 1 (that is, 4 (Available) or 9 (Rejected)), the pallet moves to the inspection location with the default status, but the pallet will not proceed from the Inspection location to the Putaway location. You must manually move the stock.

 

4.  Pallet Status Codes: 0 (Received), 1 (Inspection), 4 (Available), and 9 (Rejected) are the only pallet status codes reserved by the system to update and advance inventory/pallet status. To do this Warehouse Management uses the following rules:

 

·    Rejected inventory goes from receiving to a Reject (type 9) Location with a Location Type A (Rejected) in the Location Extension file (ILE) record. All inventory received into a reject location is set to a pallet/inventory status of Reject (9).

·    Inventory received by Goods Receiving (WHM510) into a Receiving Location takes on the Default Inventory Status that is in the Item Warehouse file (IIW) record.

·    If the Default Inventory Status is 0 (Received), the system places the pallet status at 0 (Received) in the Receiving Location, I (Inspection) in the Inspection Location, and 4 (Available) if moved from Inspection to any palletized location other than rejection. If moved to rejection the Default Inventory Status changes to 9 (Rejected).
