Is Your ERP System Hurting Your Business?

The Importance of an Integrated System

It could be if your ERP system isn't integrated with other systems that contain mission-critical business data.

Having data in two (or more) systems that don’t talk to one another is like baking a pizza crust in one oven and the toppings in another. Once baked, you may have food to snack on, but it sure isn’t pizza! Pizza requires the cheese, sauce and spices to bake with the crust, so all the flavors meld together when you take that first delicious bite. 

That’s the value of an integrated ERP system. When you take a bite, you get a complete representation of the flavors… meaning, you get one version of the truth. Everything comes together, so you can analyze critical business data in the most efficient way with no disconnects.

Crossroads RMC's Consultants have spent many years developing integrations that tie countless different systems to Infor ERPs.

Here are some integration examples:

  • UPS / FedEx / DPD
  • Kardex Power Pick Global
  • Avalara Tax Management
  • Subway/Moe’s Ord Mgmt
  • Davisware
  • Bartender Label Gen
  • Concur
  • AP Advantage
  • ADP Payroll Integration
  • SmartEquip
  • Nazdaq Output Mgmt
  • SigmaNEST
  • Internal Sales Portals
  • CorVu / Rocket Software
  • Robot Morning
  • Modula
  • Salesforce
  • Nexus

What business-critical systems do you have that are not connected to your Infor ERP system?

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

The system automatically performs offsets for requirements dates for components in the MPS/MRP calculations. It also performs offsets for calculation of material need dates at the time that shop orders are released.

To calculate the offset, the system takes the parent lead time from the Item Master and adjusts it by the bill of materials offset (plus or minus) for the component. This gives the lead time days for that specific component. The system starts with the due date of the parent and backs up and skips all non-work days in the shop calendar.

 

Note that the offset calculation uses only calendar records that have a blank work center (the calendar record applies to all work centers). See the information for the Shop Calendar Maintenance program, SFC140, in your Shop Floor Control documentation for shop calendar details.

The system allows you to manipulate and maintain a simulated MPS and MRP. You can copy the simulation from the existing first cut or you can create a totally new schedule. You can also perform a simulation of the rough-cut capacity plan. This allows a quick visual inspection by inquiry or menu of needed work center loads for the proposed MPS. After you choose a suitable MPS and rough-cut capacity, the system allows you to transfer the simulated MPS to the live Master Production Schedule.
