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

When I try to enter a 3-way match invoice with zero cost items, I get an error 'Must have value/cost entry.

Resolution
​ACP500 requires a positive value to create a 'C' transaction when entering a 3-way match invoice. If you are receiving inventory items for free (no charge) and have a purchase order for it and need to include the quantity in inventory, you should first receive your items through PUR550 using something like a 'U' transaction. Then, you would enter a 'C' transaction with the quantity and zero cost through PUR550. This will change the status of the line in the HPO file to '3', fully received and costed. Once this is completed, you will be able to enter an invoice for your zero-cost item through ACP500 without getting the error message 'Must have value/cost entry.
