Infor LX & BPCS: Explore IDF Programs

IDF (Infor Development Framework) configures your view of the application data without modifying the core application and its supportability. In version 8.3.4 and higher, IDF programs provide the replacement for most of the 300 series inquiry programs. Starting with version 8.4, Infor has added 100 series maintenance programs such as Item Master, Vendor Master, and Customer Master. With IDF, navigation drill-downs are far superior to any green-screen presentation of the data.

Included with IDF are several interfaces including:

  • PowerLink – A Windows-based client for end-users
  • Link Manager – A Windows-based environment administration client for importing environments, starting and stopping environments, and installing Fix Patches
  • Net-Link – A browser-based client (used by LX when running with SiW)
  • System-Link – A XML-based interface for processing transactions from external sources

The IDF ISO includes several components:

  • All of the above interfaces
  • Enterprise Integrator – for customizing IDF components and creating new business objects
  • EGLi – Enterprise General Ledger
  • CRMi – Customer Relationship Management

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

The shop order release date is the date that the shop order is scheduled to be released for production.

If you want to use the backward schedule method, make sure the release date is blank and the due date is maintained.

If you maintain the quantity on the shop order and the due date is prior to the system date, the due date and the release date are the same.

If the item being received needs to be inspected prior to being available for use, there are two schools of thought.

The first is to receive the item to a QC hold location. The downside is the item will show up in on hand inventory.

A better method would be to do a PO receipt to inspection. Both Inv500 and Pur550 support this method. Now you have received the item without showing it in inventory. Only the PO quantity in inspection is updated. This method also allows you to create an Inspection Dispatch Report. After the QC process for the item is complete, then the transaction Receipt from Inspection to Stock is processed. That transaction then updates the PO quantity received field and the Item on hand field in inventory.
