LX & BPCS Tip: Unlocking Efficiency and Customization: The Power of Infor Development Framework (IDF)

The Infor Development Framework (IDF) is a significant component of Infor's efforts to modernize its Infor LX application. IDF aims to enhance the user experience by introducing a task-oriented approach to accessing information within Infor LX. It is designed to replace LX Inquiry screens. Here are some key points about IDF:

  1. Efficient Interaction: IDF re-architects the way users interact with Infor LX, making it more efficient and user-friendly.

  2. Configurability: Users can configure their view of application data without making modifications to the core application. This preserves the core application's supportability and reduces the risk of introducing errors.

  3. Centralized Data Management: IDF can serve as a centralized management utility for all data, both within and outside the IBMi environment.

Examples of how users can benefit from IDF include:

  • Grouping and Sequencing: Users can arrange application information into multiple groupings and sequences that align with their specific job requirements.

  • Information Hiding: Unnecessary information can be hidden to declutter the interface and focus on the task at hand.

  • Record Filtering: Users can filter records to display only the information relevant to their current job or task, improving productivity.

  • Customization: IDF allows for customization at various levels, including individual user preferences, group-specific settings, or changes that apply to all users.

Additionally, the latest version of IDF includes file maintenance functions, which can be used for tasks such as managing the Item master file.

For more information on how Infor's IDF can benefit your company, you are encouraged to reach out to Anthony Etzel for detailed insights and assistance.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

A Cancel-by-Date has been added to the Quote Header and RMA Header panels. This optional field can limit how long a quote or authorization to return items for credit is valid.  

For quotes, this enhancement provides an optional end date for the quote. For RMAs, it provides an optional date by which the customer must return the items to receive the credit listed on the RMA.

The Cancel-By-Date prints on the Order Acknowledgement and RMA Acknowledgement to inform the customer of this important limitation to the quote or return authorization. 

An Order Entry user cannot copy the quote to create a new order if the Cancel By Date has caused the quote to expire.

Sales commissions are based on combinations of the Primary, Split, and Line-Level salesperson and the commission codes defined for the customer and item. You can now define the Split Salesperson in the same master files as the Primary Salesperson. While the Primary Salesperson is mandatory, the Split Salesperson is optional. It defaults during Order Create using the identical hierarchy as Primary Salesperson. Using Split Salesperson provides more flexibility in the calculation of sales commissions. The ability to define a default Split Salesperson improves the accuracy of sales commission qualification and calculation and reduces maintenance and adjustments necessitated by corrections.
