Infor LX & BPCS Tip of the Week: LX 8.4 Enhancement – Company Security for ACR510

George Moroses 0 17227 Article rating: 5.0

User must be authorized to ACR as a product or ACR510 as an individual program in Security Master Maintenance, SYS600. Additionally, ACR510-01, displays all records, but if the user tries to revise or display a transaction record for a company the user is not authorized to, this error message is displayed: “User is not authorized to the transaction company.”

Infor LX & BPCS Tip of the Week: Item Deletion Option in IDF Enterprise Items

George Moroses 0 20238 Article rating: 5.0

Previously, users were unable to delete items in IDF Enterprise Items when they have inventory balances or the item is connected to ancillary records, such as sales history records. This feature added in LX 8.4 provides the ability to delete an item when sales history records are found but all sales history activity is zero.

When the user attempts to delete an item in IDF Enterprise Items that is tied to a sales history record, the panel displays a message that the item cannot be deleted. The user can then run the Delete Validation Report to determine which records are tied to this item that prevents the validation. If the item no longer has manufacturing activity but had old sales history, the item can be deleted.

Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for OPERATIONS: Copy Customized Product Structure to Standard Structure (tipcs2232m000)

This functionality allows you to copy the product structure of a customized item to a standard item.

Note: When a customized structure is copied to a standard structure, the Customized check box in the Items session (tcibd0501m000) is cleared.

Item Types:

  • Standard Items: Identified by a regular item code.

  • Segmented Items: Consist of a project code segment and an item base segment (i.e., the customized item’s item code). Segments are defined in the Item Code Segmentation session (tcibd0500m000).

Only components valid for the specified Effectivity Unit will be copied.

Copy Options:

  • Target Routing Code
    Enter the code of the standard routing to which the customized structure should be copied.

  • Copy Product Structure
    Choose whether to:

    • Copy the entire structure

    • Copy only the first level

    • Perform the copy interactively

  • Reference Date
    Only parts of the product structure valid on this date will be copied.

  • Copy E-Item Relationships
    If selected, related E-item records will be copied.

  • Copy All Components and Effectivity Statements
    If selected, unit effectivity is copied to the standard structure. You can specify the unit.
    Exceptions related to routings and operations (that meet date effectivity) are also copied.

  • Alternative Material
    If selected, alternative BOM components are included in the copy.

  • Use-Up Material
    If selected, use-up materials from BOM components are included.

  • New Item Codes for Existing Standard Components
    If selected, LN generates new item codes for existing standard components in the structure.

  • Approve Conversion Factors

    • Selected: LN copies and approves conversion factors for the target item.

    • Cleared: LN copies the factors, but approval must be done manually in the Conversion Factors session (tcibd0103m000).

  • Copy to Standard Item Configuration
    If selected, the customized or generic item product structure is copied to the specified standard item configuration.

Important Note: This option is only enabled if the Use Standard Item for Configuration check box is selected in the Product Configuration Parameters session (tipcf0100m000).Copying is only possible if the product variant is not active in Order Management. Active supply orders linked to the product structure will lose association with sales orders/quotations when the structure is regenerated.
