Kathy Barthelt / Tuesday, November 9, 2021 / Categories: Infor LN & Baan Tips, Consulting Infor LN & Baan Tip: Using the “Use Up” Functionality in Infor LN To use the ‘Use-Up’ or ‘Alternative’ functionality the correct ATP settings of the use-up item must be defined. Order Planning makes use of ATP to determine if there is still supply available. The component needs to have a CTP horizon greater than 0. Then a top down item selection should be chosen when generating order planning in order for the ATP checks to be done and for the system to plan for the correct components. Selecting the 'top down item' box when generating order planning is essential because when order planning is generated for only the top level item the components aren't "really" planned for. But when a top down selection is run, the system goes through the BOM and plans for each component accordingly. Previous Article Tim Baker – Infor LX User Group’s Newest Board Member!

10Jun2025 Infor LX/BPCS Tips & Tricks for FINANCE: Override Warning in Invoice Entry PO Costing Tuesday, June 10, 2025 Read more Improves control over PO costing changes during invoice entry by replacing passive warnings with an intentional override action. In ACP500D3 (Invoice Entry PO Costing), users previously could unintentionally accept changes by pressing ENTER, even when quantity to cost or amount to cost values had changed. A new “F14 to Override” warning message replaces the old message: “Details have changed. Press enter again to accept data.” This ensures users acknowledge and confirm significant changes explicitly. New System Parameter: “Apply GRN Costing Tolerance for PO Costing” (optional): Within tolerance: Displays the original message — “Details have changed. Press enter again to accept data.” Outside tolerance: Triggers the new override requirement — “F14 to Override” Benefits: Enhances oversight and reduces unintentional cost acceptance. Enables better control of PO costs when invoice details differ from expectations. Read more
