Infor LN & Baan Tip: Can You Backflush An Item If Estimated Quantity is Zero?

Kathy Barthelt 0 73669 Article rating: 5.0

Yes, you can backflush an item with an estimated quantity = 0.00 if you haven't already backflushed the order. For example, you had an order with one component, you reported the quantity at the operation or order level and ran the backflush. Now you realize you need another component added. In this example, the order has already been backflushed, so if you were to add a second component, run backflushing, nothing would happen.

Backflushing is based on the 'quantity to backflush' in report operations or report orders complete. When the quantity is backflushed....

Understanding Taxability Rules Is Key To Sales Tax Compliance

Avalara for Infor LN | Baan | Infor LX | BPCS

Crossroads RMC 0 33509 Article rating: 5.0

Product taxability may seem straightforward because there are generally only two options: taxable or exempt. Yet that seemingly simple contrast fails to truly capture the inherent complexity of sales tax compliance. In fact, it’s a multistep process that starts with determining where a business has sales tax nexus. Knowing whether the products or services one sells are taxable or exempt is critical to the compliance process, from start to finish.

The good news is that you don’t have to be a tax expert, nor do you need to stay up on the latest tax rules and regulations in each state or country where you do business. Avalara handles all of this for you and Crossroads RMC provides the integration to Infor LN, Infor LX, Baan, and BPCS to make staying compliant a no-brainer.

Infor LX & BPCS Finance Tip: Items without costs, CST101D

George Moroses 0 30214 Article rating: 5.0

This program generates an uncosted items listing for the specified facility and cost set. You can use this report as an exception listing to identify those items that are currently maintained at zero cost or new items that require entry prior to cost rollup in Cost Set Rollup, CST500.

If a facility-specific component cost does not exist for a parent being rolled up, zero cost is rolled up for the component. When a new parent item is being rolled up for the first time, the audit report for Cost Rollup, CST500, displays a warning wherever a component cost is zero. Rolling up the parent cost again does not display a message for zero component costs.

Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for FINANCE: Interest Invoices

You can generate interest invoices for paid invoices, partially paid invoices, and unpaid invoices. In addition, after you generate and send an interest invoice, you can generate a subsequent interest invoice for the next period.

Setting up interest invoicing: You can set up interest invoicing in Accounts Receivable and the General Ledger.
To set up interest invoicing, use these sessions:

  • Invoice-to Business Partner (tccom4112s000)

For invoice-to business partners for which you want to raise interest invoices, select the Charge Interest check box. If this checkbox is selected, you can select the Interest Rate Code. This interest rate code is assigned to the business partner. If you specify this value, the Interest Rate Code specified in the Financial Business Partner Groups (tfacr0110m000) session is ignored. The interest rate defined for this Interest Rate Code is used to calculate interest amount on reminder letters and interest invoices.

  • Mapping Scheme (tfgld4573m000)

Use this session to define the mapping of the Interest Invoice/Revenues Analysis integration document type.

  • Interest Percentages (tfacr5102m000)

Use this session to define the interest percentages for each financial business-partner group, and for different periods of days. 

  • Interest Invoice Related Data (tfacr5101s000)

Use this session to define whether interest must be calculated on unpaid invoices, partly paid invoices, interest invoices, and/or fully paid invoices. You can also indicate that LN must take advance payments, unallocated payments, and credit notes into account for the generation of interest invoices.

  • Optionally, set conditions

Example: LN only generates an interest invoice advice entry if these conditions are met:

  • The total of all advice entries in one currency is higher than the allowed minimum amount of an interest invoice defined in the Minimum Amount for Interest Invoice field.
  • The invoice is overdue for a greater number of days than the number of days defined in the Minimum Days for Interest Invoice field.
