Does your Baan or Infor LN system still lack integration with UPS and FedEx?

Efficiency is a recurring topic within the manufacturing sector, often highlighted in articles and discussions with manufacturers. According to a recent comprehensive report by The Manufacturer and IBM, a substantial 92% of manufacturers prioritize enhancing efficiency as their primary business imperative. By bolstering efficiency, manufacturers can effectively curtail costs, augment throughput, and thereby enhance their competitive edge.

A notable approach to enhance efficiency involves the elimination of redundant processes, particularly the manual input of data from systems like Baan and Infor LN to third-party logistics systems such as UPS or FedEx. These third-party systems necessitate comprehensive details regarding the shipment, encompassing shipment particulars, transportation mode, weight, quantity, and more. Subsequently, once the shipment is prepared, the tracking number, freight expenses, and other pertinent information must be painstakingly entered back into Baan and Infor LN. This is a pivotal step in facilitating the processing of sales orders and, ultimately, the invoicing of customers. Regrettably, this process consumes a significant amount of time, is prone to errors, and contributes to delays in both the shipping and invoicing processes.

Why invest unnecessary time and effort when the entire workflow can be streamlined through automation, whether on-premise or in the cloud, with RMCship?

The world of sales tax is constantly changing and can be extremely confusing, but getting it right is crucial to your company’s success. As your business evolves, your sales tax obligations may also change. Through it all, there are typically five steps involved in maintaining sales tax compliance. Review the steps below to understand your complete sales tax picture.

Step 1: Know where your business must collect...

The Infor Development Framework (IDF) re-architects the way a user interacts with the application by providing an efficient, task-oriented process to view the application information that is contained within Infor LX. IDF enables users to configure their view of the application data without modifying the core application and its supportability.

The examples below describe how users can configure their display of data and maximize overall productivity:

  • Arrange application information into multiple groupings and sequences that make sense for the job.
  • Hide information that does not apply to a particular job or task.
  • Filter records to show only the information that applies to the job or task that the user is performing.
  • Customize the information for an individual user, for a group of users, or for all users.

To get more details on how IDF can benefit your company, please contact Anthony Etzel today!
