Optimize with Infor Development Framework: IDF

Infor LX | BPCS | M3

Why You Need IDF

The Infor Development Framework (IDF) not only helps you modernize the look and feel of your LX software but also the interactions of the IBM i software with other applications in your business.

“The IDF is a multi-user interface, single codebase architecture that’s metadata-driven (and) provides a lot of flexibility to adapt the software for their processes.” says Infor. This is the direction that Infor is going starting with LX 8.3.4 covering inquiries that can replace green screen 300 series inquiries. Newer versions of LX 8.4 and above introduces master file maintenance programs with the IDF and there are no longer green screen master file maintenance programs. 

It’s a Win-Win!  - So why aren't you taking advantage of the IDF? 

  • Not installed?
  • It's installed, just not using it?
  • Not licensed?
  • Don't know how to use it?

To get you started, Crossroads RMC specializes in:

  • Installation
  • User set-up
  • Security authorization
  • Basic and advanced training
  • User navigation by replacing multiple green screen sessions
  • Creating business objects and views

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Restrict Over-shipments to Customers

  • System parameter option controls when over shipments are allowed

Options to:

  • Continue current process with warning message
  • Give error message
  • Automatically correct to quantity available for shipment
     
  • Option to revise the order quantity so that pricing, promotions, credit checking load planning and other processes reflect the actual quantity
  • Allows better control of exceptions for over shipments
  • Ensures that pricing, promotions are correctly based on actual order quantity

Graphical representation makes complex concepts—like the intricacies of an ERP system—more universal, relatable and easy to understand.

ERP dashboards gather and visualize critical metrics from across the organization, offering insight into the performance, outlook and interconnectivity of business processes.

By setting up ERP dashboards that illustrate key metrics and compellingly communicate operational performance, key stakeholders will have a clear picture of the health of the business—and make better, more informed business decisions as a result.
