Am I able to remove a warehouse location?

Kathy Barthelt 0 67004 Article rating: 5.0

You may want to restructure your warehouse with new bin codes and new bin characteristics. You will not undertake this kind of activity very often, but situations can occur where a reclassification is necessary to achieve or maintain a more efficient operation. In this case, you may want to remove a given warehouse location. It can be done, but you must be aware of the following:

A location cannot be removed if any of these conditions exist:

  1. Any outstanding inbound advice for the item.
  2. Any outstanding outbound advice for the item.
  3. Any unprocessed cycle counting order/adjustment order lines.
  4. Any cycle counting data.

George Moroses 0 35113 Article rating: 5.0

Infor’s Intelligent Open Network (ION) technology easily integrates Infor ERPs and third-party enterprise systems. ION is an advanced middleware cloud platform that provides the flexibility you need to make the most complex web of enterprise systems work together on-premise, in the cloud, or both. ION’s long-term sustainability will optimize your ROI, and with ION, one application can be upgraded, replaced, or even fail without taking the entire network down.

Benefits:

  • Faster integration and upgrade times
  • Access to real-time information
  • Reduced burden on IT
  • Immediate access to business services like reporting and mobility

For older BPCS installations that don’t use ION, Crossroads RMC has the expertise to build powerful adapters to allow your specific BPCS version to communicate and exchange information with virtually any sub-system that can import/export data.

Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for TECHNOLOGY: Load Audit Tables for Profile (ttaud3220s000)

Use this session to load tables for an audit profile.

Usually, this session is run from the Specific menu of the Audit Tables by Profile (ttaud3120m000) session. The selected profile in that session is displayed in the first line of the current session.

The result of loading the tables depends on the selection level you use in the current session. For each element on the lowest selection level, a line is created in the Audit Tables by Profile (ttaud3120m000) session. For example, if you select a package and a number of modules, a line is created for each module. Because you did not specify the tables, the All check box is selected.

Field Information

  • Profile: The audit profile for which the tables are loaded.
    Note: If you start the current session from the appropriate menu of the Audit Tables by Profile (ttaud3120m000), the profile displayed is the profile that is selected in that session.
  • Package: The package that contains the tables you want to load.
  • Module: The module that contains the tables you want to load.
  • Table: The tables you want to load.
  • Audit Type: The audit type that must be set for the tables that are loaded.
    Note: You can either select: Always, or Changed. However, it is also possible to determine the audit type per field. This is the Not Applicable option in the Audit Tables by Profile (ttaud3120m000) session. If you want to set the audit type per field, you must change the audit type to Not Applicable after the tables are downloaded, and then specify the audit type per field in the Audit Fields by Table (ttaud3125m000) session.
