Unlocking Potential: Why Connecting Outside Systems to Your Baan or Infor LN System is Crucial for Business Success

Kathy Barthelt 0 2227 Article rating: 5.0

In an era of rapid digital transformation, having a robust enterprise resource planning (ERP) system like Baan or Infor LN is a solid foundation. These systems are powerful data repositories and transaction engines. However, their true power is often limited when they operate in isolation.

Connecting your core ERP system to other, specialized applications—whether a customer relationship management (CRM) platform, an e-commerce site, a warehouse management system (WMS), or even a specialized QMS—is no longer a luxury; it's a strategic necessity. This integration transforms your ERP from a single source of truth into the central nervous system of your entire operation, enabling seamless data flow, improved decision-making, and enhanced efficiency.

Here’s a breakdown of the advantages, potential disadvantages, and what your business stands to gain.

Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for TECHNOLOGY: Table Sharing with a Multi-Company Setup - Using a Master Data Company

Kathy Barthelt 0 3909 Article rating: 5.0

You can maintain all the master data, such as items, business partners, central purchase contracts, general ledger and related data in one company and share this data with the other companies. This master data company can be one of the operational companies, but you can also assign a separate company only to be used for the master data.

The advantages of having a separate master data company are:

  • Clarity: Having a single company as master data company is clear for all users.
  • Authorization: In general, only a few people in an enterprise can maintain the master data and, particularly for this maintenance, the authorization is important. If one dedicated master data company exists, you can use the company authorization to maintain this authorization very easily.
