Is Your ERP System Hurting Your Business?

The Importance of an Integrated System

Kathy Barthelt 0 19504 Article rating: 5.0

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!

Any of these ever happen to you?

  • I underestimated how much raw material I had on hand and now my customer’s order is waiting on hold until I can get the parts I need.
  • I couldn’t meet the desired delivery date for my customer’s order, so they took their business somewhere else.

Infor LN & Baan Tip: LN Order Management - Generating Purchase Receipts

The purpose of the option to "Generate" is to insert purchase order lines automatically into the purchase receipt. As part of the automatic process, all receipt lines are also automatically confirmed. The option should be used when large orders are received.   

If necessary, received quantities that are not correct can be adjusted through session Correct Purchase Receipt (tdpur4106s100).

Alternative: From the purchase order lines menu the option "Lines to be Received" can be used. This starts session Purchase Order Lines - To Be Received (tdpur4501m400) with the option "Confirm" on top selected. This option can be deselected and thus unconfirmed purchase receipt lines will be created. Packing slip numbers can be inserted into each purchase receipt line manually and received quantities can still be modified. Hereafter confirming the receipt, the option "Correct Receipt..." will be available for each single selected purchase receipt line.
