Crossroads RMC + Avalara…

The BEST way to handle tax compliance

A CASE STUDY

The Company:
A supplier of fabricated steel equipment to large food service firms such as Starbucks, Subway, and Walmart.

The Challenge:
This supplier needed to find a better way to handle tax compliance. The supplier’s legacy tax software was incompatible with their ERP. This led to:

  • The required upgrade to the latest Infor ERP version without having a pre-built, certified, fully-functional connector
  • The reliance upon labor-intensive, error-prone manual processes
  • Inaccurate customer addresses
  • Uncertainty around product and service taxability, as well as nexus
  • Increased audit risk


The Solution:
Avalara offerings were a perfect match to solve all of their challenges.

  • Proven integration – Crossroads RMC’s certified connectors to Avalara are top-notch and time-proven
  • Improved employee utilization – Accounting staff can now focus on more valuable, revenue-generating activities
  • AvaTax reports changes in tax rules and nexus obligations, eliminating the need for manual monitoring
  • Avalara Consumer Use facilitates the time-consuming burden of use tax reporting
  • Avalara’s Managed Returns automates returns filing and payments

  • Reduced audit risk – With Avalara in use, auditors can focus on firms who don’t have a compliance plan in place
  • AvaTax delivers guaranteed-accurate address validation and tax rates
  • Returns ensures that all liabilities get paid on time, down to local jurisdictions
  • CertCapture safeguards against missing, out-of-date and inaccurate exemption certs

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Item Facility Master has a new attribute to define the override inspection days lead time CICP.ICINSD.

  • When an item facility has a defined override inspection days lead time, that value will be used instead of the system parameter inspection days lead time.

MRP exception report, MRP200B
Purchase planning report, PUR285B
Purchase order / Requisition maintenance, PUR500D3
Purchase order consolidation / release, PUR640B1
Vendor splits, PUR653B

This enhancement improved the subfile utilized in MRP320D Master Schedule Detail Inquiry -SCR001 by expanding the subfile with data rather than clearing the subfile as user pages. This change provides full support for the WebTop 4.8 Grid decorator.

This enhancement updated the approach used to populate the subfile to allow a deployed Webtop Grid to function correctly. There is no visible or user-impacted change to the way the program functions.

This enhancement provides improved functionality and full support of a Webtop grid applied to the subfile.

Tips: LN | Baan

Users can personalize sessions and apply special formatting to the data displayed in sessions. The personalizations and formatting settings that are specified by the users are stored on the LN server. Administrators can maintain these settings.

  • Session personalizations

    Users can personalize sessions in various ways. users can, for example, hide fields, change labels, customize the toolbar, and move fields to another tab. Administrators can maintain the personalizations defined by the users. For example, an administrator can export personalizations to an XML file, import personalizations from an XML file, and copy personalizations to another user, to a DEM role, or to a company number.

  • Report personalizations

    You can use the Report Designer (ttstppersrep) to personalize the layouts and style of reports, without modifying the standard reports or using an external reporting solution. The changes are stored as personalizations.

    You can also generate new reports that are based on a selection of fields from the application data model. These reports are generated in the extensibility package. You can personalize these reports in the Report Designer (ttstppersrep), or modify them in Infor LN Studio.

    For details, see the Infor LN Report Designer Development Guide
     
  • Conditional formatting

    users can define conditions to apply special formatting to the data displayed in LN sessions. The users can define multiple conditions per session and different types of formatting, such as a specific color for particular fields or rows, and a warning symbol for particular rows. Administrators can maintain the formatting settings specified by the users and can define system-wide formatting settings.

  • If Finances is implemented, we recommend that you do not delete order data in a fiscal year that has not yet been fully closed. This is because the GRINYA process uses information that would be deleted by this action. For best results, check whether the logistical balance for non-invoiced receipts matches the balance of the GRINYA accounts for the periods up to which you want to delete purchase order data.
  • When a purchase order is canceled, you can only delete the purchase order and the related tables. If only a purchase order line is canceled, the line can be deleted and archived.

You cannot delete a purchase order (line) if:

  • The linked warehouse order is closed but cannot be removed.
  • The purchase order is linked to a PCS project that is not yet archived. When the PCS project is archived, the purchase data is also archived and you can delete the purchase order.
  • A consignment replenishment order is not yet consumed completely.
  • The invoice is yet to be completely matched and approved.
  • The invoice amount is not yet inserted as turnover history.
  • The sales order or service order that is linked to the purchase order line, and for which an internal invoice must be sent from the purchase office to the sales office or service office, is not yet invoiced. In this case, you cannot delete the purchase order line before the sales order or service order is invoiced.
