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

The Customer Tax Exemption Maintenance program, SYS160, allows you to specify customer declarations used by the Customer Order Entry (ORD) and Billing (BIL) applications to apply a tax rate code to specific order lines of an invoice.

With this program, Infor LX can invoice customers without value-added tax (VAT) if one of the following conditions occurs:

  • The cumulated...

Don’t laugh! I know, I know…many of our customers say that after 7-10 years they are finally settling in after the implementation! We have seen many a customer stretch out the lifespan of their ERP system to 20+ years. That sounds great for the company’s bank account, but is it good for the business?

An outdated ERP system hurts your business in many ways, not just with slow performance. The best-of-breed functionality is now 2 decades old, and obsolete technology can't leverage newer technology. Lack of integration leads to siloed data that hurts communication and your internal teams feel the pain, and your customers are noticing. Poor visibility into your operations makes it nearly impossible to achieve industry-based regulatory compliance and meet financial auditing requirements. Not to mention the sheer size of Big Data that is being collected today vs. 2 decades ago or the fact that your vendor is no longer supporting your ERP version.

Let’s scrap it all and start over!...
