Anthony Etzel 0 76365 Article rating: 5.0

If it is necessary to pause sending and receiving of BOD messages on your IBM i during your month end process, it is best practice for the document flows that point to the IBM i to guarantee delivery of BOD messages.

Pausing Sending messages

  1. Select Connect > Active Connection Points.
  2. Select the connection point that must be paused for sending messages.

Steps to undo an IDF modification and restore to the default

Anthony Etzel 0 40425 Article rating: 5.0

Changes are great, but if you want to undo an IDF modification and restore to the default, you need to follow these steps:

Reset to an Infor shipped view (“un-modify” it)

  1. Open the public node of an object you would like to reset to the shipped status. Notice that all of the standard views (i.e., those owned by Infor) are unmodified.
  2. Select the row with the Modified column = yes
  3. Select the Reset to default button on the toolbar
  4. Say Yes to the prompt
  5. The object is now back to the way it was shipped by Infor. Note that it now shows that it has not been modified. If you display the editor, you will see that the attribute you deleted has been restored. Note that only objects owned by Infor can be reset. If you change a standard definition, and later regret it, you can use this feature to restore it with a couple of clicks.

Infor LN & Baan Tip of the Week: The Production Bill of Material – 10.7

The production bill of material is globally specified at the company level. It can be used as a source for the definition of the local material lists, such as:

  • The production model in the repetitive module.
  • The production model in the job shop module.
  • The subcontracting model in the subcontracting module.

The production bill of material can be generated through the engineering bill of material. The new production bill of material differs from the old bill of material:

  • It has a header and a status.
  • It is always revision controlled.
  • The effective dates have been moved from the material lines to the header.
  • The BOM quantity has been moved from item production data to the header.
  • The use up has been moved from alternatives to the material line.
  • The material line excludes logistic data (no warehouse nor routing operation).

The production bill of material is not mandatory.

Production bill of material revisions:
The production bill of material is revision controlled. The objective of the revision is to control the changes to the bill of material over time.

The P-bom includes this revision-related data:

  • Revision number
  • Effective date and Expiry date
  • Status (New, Approved, Expired)
  • Creation date and Created by: user
  • Approval date and Approved by: user
  • Expiry date and Expired by: user
  • Source information
