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

Kathy Barthelt 0 2708 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.

George Moroses 0 2545 Article rating: 5.0

Present PUR500-07 “folded” Purchase Order Line Entry screen as the default Line Entry screen.

Supply Chain Management Enhancements:

WebTop Grid users can personalize the main Purchase Order Line Entry screen to resequencing columns, sort and filter on data values, change column headings, and other features.

In LX 8.4.2, the PUR500-07 “folded” screen is the default Purchase Order Line Entry screen presented to the user. Users can still access the “unfolded” PUR500-06 screen with limited fields displayed, on request.

OTTO Q&A from the Director of Planning & Technology at Champion Industries

1.  How difficult is it to initially install OTTO?

Dead easy is the straight answer. We relied on you to install, and you installed in the predicted 1 hour.  

2.  Would you install it on a test system or on the production system?

Production system is another easy answer. I use OTTO as the ideal prototype when talking to business contacts about “add-on” products. It is non-invasive; it only reads data from our ERP files. I know the implementation is 100% safe because no ERP files are ever updated (read corrupted) by OTTO.

3.  How difficult was it to implement OTTO? Was there a negative impact on daily operations?

There is a learning curve involved in using any new tool that has value to add. OTTO implementation is very low on the impact scale, but I would strongly recommend that a prospective client plan on investing in education and practice. OTTO implementation is low impact. No valuable tool is “no impact”.
