Infor LX & BPCS Manufacturing Tip of the Week: Backward Scheduling

George Moroses 0 28844 Article rating: 5.0

Operations are automatically backward scheduled at shop order release time. The backward scheduling algorithm starts with the shop order due date and schedules each operation based upon the standard move and queue times in the routings and the number of days the job is expected to run at standard. The system calculates and stores the operation scheduled start date. The dates may be modified by the shop order maintenance program. The number of days that a job is expected to run an operation is dependent upon the available capacity for that work center and the total hours scheduled for that operation.

Infor LN & Baan Materials Tip: Sales Quotations

Sales quotations are used to supply a sold-to business partner with the required details to make a purchasing decision.

You can create a sales quotation in response to a request for quotation (RFQ) from a business partner, or as a sales tool to initiate the sales process with potential business partners. A quotation includes the dates, terms, items, or item descriptions to be sold, and a success percentage, which reflects the level of certainty that the quotation will be accepted. Sales quotations are included in the planning modules based on their success percentages. Quotations with a high success percentage are considered as sold.

You can print and send quotations to business partners. You can specify the results of the returned quotations in Sales. If the quotation is not accepted, you can specify the reason for failure and the competitor who won the quote. If the business partner accepts the quotation, you can transfer the quotation to a sales order and specify the reason for success.

Sales quotation procedure - The normal sales quotation procedure includes the creation, printing, specification of results, and processing of sales quotations.

Additional processes - A number of processes do not always occur in the sales quotation procedure, but can be used optionally, such as ATP and CTP checks, creating alternative quotation lines, and copying bill of material components to a sales quotation.

Inserting items from a catalog - You can add items from a catalog to a sales quotation.

Product variants -  You can configure or link product variants for generic items on the sales quotation line.

Price stages - You can link a price stage to a sales quotation line. When processing the quotation to a sales order, the price stage is copied from the quotation line to the sales order line. Sales order lines can be blocked based on the price stage.

Material price information - You can link material price information to a sales quotation line. As a result, the (document line) price on the sales quotation line includes material prices.

After-sales services -  You can specify the after-sales services that will apply to a sold item after delivery. When processing a quotation to a sales order, the after-sales service data is copied from the sales quotation to the sales order.

Project pegging in sales - To identify costs, demand, and supply for a project, you can peg project costs for sales quotation.
