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

Previously, if a user performed a partial search for an item by using a double byte language, no matches were found. Regardless of whether the MLS module is used, this enhancement allows a user to use a double byte language to perform partial or full item description searches. This enhancement resolves an issue with partial searches on screens where the Item Master Lookup (WINIIM) screen is used, such as Material Status Inquiry, INV300D-01, Item Master Selection INV100D1-01, Facility Planning Selection, MRP140D1-01, and Purchasing Inquiry, PUR300D1).

The user selects the F4 prompt from these screens to open the Item Description List. In the prompt window, the user specifies option 10 to perform a partial or full search on an item description.

This enhancement allows users who currently perform outside operation processing in shop floor programs to manage the transfer of components used in the outside operations to the vendor’s designated warehouse.

This enhancement provides modified and new INV511D screens and adds new logic to allow the user to identify all shop orders that have components linked to outside operations or to identify all the components linked to an outside operation on a shop order. The shop orders can be filtered by either a date range or by a specific vendor.

Inventory Transfers for Outside Operations enhances the management of external operations by providing screens that simplify the selection of the shop orders or items to transfer to a vendor.

Transfers to the vendor warehouse are performed in the Inventory Transfers, INV511D, screens.
