Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for FINANCE: Multilogistic/Single Finance

Kathy Barthelt 0 2558 Article rating: 5.0

In a multilogistic/single-finance company structure, you can manage the manufacturing and distribution processes in a number of separate companies and perform the financial accounting in one company.

You must create one or more enterprise units in each logistic company and link all the enterprise units to the financial company.

For example, you can use a multilogistic/single-finance structure for an organization that consists of a number of separate production plants in one country that use their own BOM and production process but that form one legal entity. The reason for this is because BOMs, and the item cost prices based on them, are specific for each logistic company.

Is your Baan or Infor LN system STILL not integrated with UPS and FedEx?

It's hard to find a manufacturing article, or talk to a manufacturer for that matter without hearing about the importance of efficiency. In fact, 92% of manufacturers reported that their most significant business imperative is improving efficiency, according to a major new report published by The Manufacturer and IBM. Improving efficiency cuts costs, improves throughput, and ultimately improves competitiveness.

One way to improve efficiency is to eliminate the redundant process of manually keying data from Baan and Infor LN to your third-party logistics systems such as UPS or FedEx. Third-party systems need to know what you want shipped, how it is being shipped, the weight, quantity, etc. Once the shipment is ready, the tracking number, freight cost, and other information need to be entered into Baan and Infor LN in order to process your sales orders and ultimately invoice your customer. This process is time-consuming, error-prone, and causes delays in shipping and invoicing.

Why waste time and energy when the entire process can be automated on-premise or cloud with RMCship?

RMCship provides a complete one-way or two-way communication channel between Baan IV, Baan V, and Infor LN to UPS Worldship & FedEx Ship Manager.

TO UPS & FedEx -
RMCship:

  • Provides options to create cartons, pallets within Baan IV, Baan V, and Infor LN (ERP LN)
  • Allows shipments to include a single order, partial orders, or multiple orders per carton/pallet
  • Automatically sends customer data, order data, and shipping information from Baan and LN to UPS and FedEx
  • Prints carton labels for shipping

FROM UPS / FedEx -
