Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for TECHNOLOGY: Impact of Configuration Changes on Audit Trails

Kathy Barthelt 0 27228 Article rating: 5.0

Impact of Configuration Changes on Audit Trails

The impact of changes in the audit settings varies depending on the specific circumstances. The issues typically arise when changes made to audit settings are implemented at runtime without requiring all users to exit the system (LN). As a result, some users may continue to generate audit trails using the old configuration, while those who log in after the changes take effect will create audit trails based on the new configuration.

Changes in User Profiles

Below is a summary table that illustrates the effects of these changes for a specific table within a company:

Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for OPERATIONS: Using Country of Origin for Purchase Orders

Kathy Barthelt 0 46779 Article rating: 5.0

For purchase orders, information about the COO allows you to track the related import duties, tariffs, and compliance with sourcing requirements. You can maintain the COO of an item when creating an order or the release level of a purchase order.

When you create a purchase order line in the Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) session, the COO related details are defaulted based on the item-purchase data defined in the Items - Purchase (tdipu0101m000) session. To view this data, you can use the Country of Origin option from the References menu in the Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000) session.

After the order line is released to Warehousing, an inbound line is created in the Inbound Order Lines (whinh2110m000) session with the COO information. A receipt line is created in the Warehouse Receipt Lines (whinh3512m100) session when the inbound order line is received. To view the actual COO for the item specified on the receipt line, you can use the Country of Origin option from the References menu in this session.

You can view the country of origin (COO) data for the inventory received in a warehouse in the Item - Country of Origin Inventory (tcitu6600m000) session based on the data specified in the header section such as, warehouse, item, and so on.

In the Inventory Tracking Receipt (tcitu2610m000) session, you can view the information related to the purchase order, inventory quantity, and actual COO of the item. You can use the Intrastat Transactions (tccom7171m000) session to view the COO that is reported for an order line and is used for the Intrastat declaration.

Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for FINANCE: Remap Posted Integration Transactions (tfgld4282m100)

Kathy Barthelt 0 45590 Article rating: 5.0

Use this session to remap Posted transactions that were mapped incorrectly.

To remap integration transactions successfully, several conditions must be fulfilled. For details, refer to To remap integration transactions.

Enter the ranges of selection criteria for the integration transaction or range of integration transactions to be remapped. You can select the integration transactions of a range of business objects or of a specific business object.

You must select a specific integration document type or an integration document type group.

To evaluate the remapping before you perform the actual remapping, you can select the Simulate check box and the Error Report check box. After you solve the errors, you can run the session again and clear the Simulate check box.

After remapping the integration transactions, you can use the Post Integration Transactions (tfgld4282m000) session to create the postings in the General Ledger.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Improves control over PO costing changes during invoice entry by replacing passive warnings with an intentional override action.

  • In ACP500D3 (Invoice Entry PO Costing), users previously could unintentionally accept changes by pressing ENTER, even when quantity to cost or amount to cost values had changed.

  • A new “F14 to Override” warning message replaces the old message:
    “Details have changed. Press enter again to accept data.”
    This ensures users acknowledge and confirm significant changes explicitly.

New System Parameter:

  • “Apply GRN Costing Tolerance for PO Costing” (optional):

    • Within tolerance: Displays the original message —
      “Details have changed. Press enter again to accept data.”

    • Outside tolerance: Triggers the new override requirement —
      “F14 to Override”

Benefits:

  • Enhances oversight and reduces unintentional cost acceptance.

  • Enables better control of PO costs when invoice details differ from expectations.
