Infor LX & BPCS Tip of the Week: Trim Leading Zero

In LX 8.4, an enhancement has been included to allow for the expanded Company fields to have the leading zero truncated.

To trim leading zeros, CEA515B is called during macro resolution to trim the leading zero based on the position in the Zero Trim file (GZT). The Zero Trim file contains all the company number fields currently defined in the CEA Cross Reference fie (GXM).

This enhancement provides year over year comparison in financial reports and eliminates the need to setup new companies in programs such as Alias Definition. Financial programs trim the leading zero on Company fields, such as Company 010, on subsystem transactions to process as Company 10 during CEA macro resolution. Clients who prefer to retain the Company value as 010 on financial reports can clear the GZT file.

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.
