Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for FINANCE: Use of Electronic Bank Statements

All actions required for converting, validating, matching, and posting electronically received bank statements can be performed within a single session:

Bank Statement Workbench (tfcmg5610m100)
Bank Statement (tfcmg5610m000)

Alternatively, you can use the sequence of electronic bank statement sessions outlined below.

Steps to Process Electronic Bank Statements:

Convert Electronic Bank Statements (tfcmg5202m000)
Convert the received bank file to a format that LN can process. LN stores the converted bank statement files in the directory specified in the Path For EBS Archive field of the Bank Relations (tfcmg0510m000) session. In the Pathname EBS File field, you must add the file name. To add the current date to the file name, append a tilde (~) to the file name.
Validate Bank Statements (tfcmg5202m000 / tfcmg5510m000 / tfcmg5511m000)
Validate the converted electronic bank statement.
Match Bank Statements (tfcmg5210m000)
Automatically match as many of the imported statements (status Validated) as possible with open items. LN can match the statements with sales invoices, purchase invoices, and anticipated payment documents.

Matching Options:
- Match - Surplus on Aging / Unallocated (Default value)
- Match - Surplus on Unallocated
- Match - Surplus to be allocated Manually
- Allow Underpayments
- Use Payment Difference Tolerance
Matching Results (tfcmg2500m100)
Review the results of the matching process.

To handle an unmatched amount, you can:
- Manually add an unallocated payment or receipt line.
- Reconcile the surplus with remaining open entries of the business partner.
Post Bank Statements (tfcmg5210m100)
Post the bank transactions to the General Ledger.

Update the business partner’s bank account number and other details in the Bank Account by Pay-by Business Partner (tccom4115s000) session, based on the details read from the bank statement file.

BPCS/LX Tip of the Week: Gain Efficiency & Save Money – Evaluate Your Production Lines

Wednesday, September 21, 2016

When is the last time you took a hard look at your production lines?

How are we moving product through our facility?
Do we have work instructions / drawings available where needed?
Do we have frequently used inventory available at the line?
Where are the bottlenecks?
Are processes automated, where possible?

Taking a hard look at your processes and procedures may reveal some interesting results. Don’t assume that everyone is doing things the same way. Some may be superstars, and others may need some mentoring. Some processes may be outdated and costing you time and money, while others are extremely efficient. One area of the business may benefit from how others operate. Take the time to review and analyze your findings. Your company may benefit greatly as a result.

BPCS/LX Tip of the Week: Make Your ERP Work FOR You - Streamline Your Processes

Tuesday, September 13, 2016

Such lofty goals you had when you implemented your ERP system. It was going to be like pressing the “Easy Button”… then it wasn’t.

What happened? In some cases, decisions were made to implement the system “just like we used to run our old system”. Great idea? Not so much. Your business changes, and your business software needs to change as well.

Have you looked at streamlining your processes?Are you using the ERP system, but everything seems cumbersome and takes more time than its worth? Ask yourself these questions:

Can you automate a step or two and eliminate some manual keying?
Can you add barcoding to avoid keying in some information altogether?
How about automating the printing of some reports?

Now is the time to sit down and really review the steps required to complete the task and think out of the box a bit. Soon you can develop your own streamlined process to get the job done quickly and efficiently.
