This enhancement provides IDF relationships from Inventory Transaction History (ITH) to Ledger Book Subsystem Transaction (GXR) and from Ledger Book Subsystem Transaction (GXR) to Ledger Book Journal Line. To implement this enhancement, request and apply MR 81558.

This enhancement provided the following relationships:

• Inventory Transaction History
• Relationship to Ledger Book Subsystem Transaction (1 to Many) Default view ‘General’
• Ledger Book Subsystem card Default view ‘Inventory Processing’
• Default subset ‘Inventory Processing’

This enhancement provides users with complete traceability from inventory transactions (ITH) to ledger book journal lines (GLH), regardless of how many ledgers are used and journals created. Due to the bi-directional relationship, users can see the source ITH detail from the journal lines.

OPERATIONS: Subcontracting Overview

Disconnected data—information stored outside your core ERP system—creates inefficiencies and blind spots across every level of your organization. While spreadsheets, email orders, and external reporting tools may serve a purpose, the lack of integration between these systems leads to far-reaching consequences.

Operations Impact

• Inventory levels and supplier shipments are tracked in spreadsheets, disconnected from your ERP.
• Dealer portal email orders require manual entry into the system, slowing fulfillment.

Finance Impact

• Budgeting data lives in isolated spreadsheets, unlinked to ERP sales or quoting information.
• Open purchase orders and invoices must be manually matched and approved, consuming valuable time.

Technology Impact

• Countless reports are generated outside the ERP just to keep teams “up to date.”
• Significant time is wasted exporting ERP data into external data cubes for analysis.

Executive Impact

• Leaders struggle to compile an accurate view of inventory and financial health when data comes from multiple sources.
• A lack of real-time visibility into shortages causes lost sales and customer dissatisfaction.

Disconnected data isn’t just an inconvenience—it drains productivity and delays critical business outcomes.
