Infor LX & BPCS Tip: Automated Approach to Your Cash Application Process with ARP

Advanced Remittance Processing, ARP, provides an automated approach to your cash application process. ARP works together with Accounts Receivable to save valuable time and resources by automatically applying incoming payments to open receivables during daily batch processing. You can easily and efficiently resolve unapplied remittances online.

Advanced Remittance Processing (ARP) is an automatic cash application process that allows you to perform the following functions:

  • Receive lockbox deposits electronically from your banks on the day the payments are deposited
  • Automatically apply the majority of the day's receipts to open items in accounts receivable in one batch process
  • Perform online disposition of exceptions the system encounters during the automatic cash application process
  • Generate a complete set of daily reports and maintain historical deposit and payment information online to allow you to audit all cash applications

The ARP automatic cash application process can be summarized in a series of operations that highlight the labor savings provided. ARP processing requires some setup to ensure that the process operates as efficiently as possible.

ARP allows you to perform the following operations:

  • Receive/Edit Bank Transmission of Lockbox Deposits
  • Identify/Assign Customer Numbers
  • Select Customer Open Items
  • Summarize Open Items Extracted
  • Check Application Against Open Items
  • Produce Reports Recapping Check Application Process
  • Create Disposition and On-Account Payment Records
  • Report Check Differences
  • Create Applied Checks Interface Records to Accounts Receivable
  • Flag Disposition Records as Temporarily Paid on Ledger File
  • Update A/R Ledger and Audit Files
  • Open Item Extraction

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

It is essential to capture a reason and duration for each downtime incident to enable the team to effectively prioritize and focus.

Start simple, and make sure every reason is clear (when compared with other reasons) and describes symptoms (as opposed to attempting to diagnose root causes). Remove reasons that aren’t regularly used and add reasons.

 

From a recent article published by M4B Marketing:

When analyzing your sales performance consider the following: 

  • Pricing changes eg. price increases or discounting
  • Competitors – competitors entering or exiting the market
  • New product or service launch growing sales
  • New product or service cannibalizing existing product or service sales
  • Customers moving between products or services
  • Changes in customer demand eg. increasing or decreasing
  • The segments and distribution channels you operate in

Tips: LN | Baan

Instead of sharing tables through logical linking, you can replicate table content between companies. This approach allows certain non-key attributes of a record to vary by company. For example, if you replicate bills of materials rather than sharing them, each company can associate a different warehouse with the same bill of material. This way, the bills of materials are consistent across companies, while the warehouses can differ.

Replication also enables selective availability of records in other companies. For instance, when replicating items, you might limit which items are available in a sales company based on their item group, only including end items. You can further refine replication to specific subsets, such as particular item groups.

Keep in mind that replication requires any referenced tables to be either replicated or shared as well.
