Did you implement your ERP system 5 years ago… or maybe 20 years ago? At the time, it was like a brand new car… sleek, fast, top-of-the-line, and fuel-efficient. And although it may have needed a few minor “adjustments”, overall you were very pleased. Fast forward to today. Does it still have that new car smell? Does it run as efficiently as it used to? Do you know how to fix a problem when it occurs?

While ERP systems are certainly designed to last, over time, your business changes, your customers’ needs change, employees change and you are left with a system that may run “fine”, but you certainly don’t feel the same way about it as you did when it was brand new.

So the good news is that you CAN restore that “new car smell” with a utilization review, or business process review.

What is a Utilization or Business Process Review and Why Do I Need One?
Simply put, a business process review is an exercise designed to help businesses identify areas of improvement to become more agile, efficient, and streamlined.

Does my organization need a Business Process Review? 

While every company could benefit from conducting a business process review, it's only worth the time and effort if you have a specific problem you're trying to solve or a goal you are trying to achieve. Furthermore, and perhaps most importantly, organizations must be ready and willing to make changes. 

That's why a business process review is critical; it helps align processes, define goals, and thoughtfully plan and build solutions that help businesses achieve actual growth.

Our consultant reviews the current usage and related business processes of your entire Infor ERP system, or a particular area like Finance, Manufacturing, Materials Management, or Technology to make recommendations that will reinvigorate your Infor ERP system and those that use it.

Other benefits include:

  • Creating a consistent way of working across the business
  • Automating processes to reduce effort and increase productivity
  • Improving decision-making capability by providing access to real-time, reliable, and accurate information
  • Creating opportunities to improve your customer service levels and response times
  • Increasing your ability to attract and retain quality staff

Your ERP system may require some engine work, or it may just require an oil change and an expert to look everything over to make sure things are running smoothly. Either way – whether this is a project you take on internally or decide that you need some expert guidance from a company like Crossroads RMC, it is worth the time and investment to ensure peak performance.

Business process reviews can be performed 100% remotely via phone or web meeting, or in person – you choose what works best for your team.

With this enhancement the Purchase Receipts screens are optionally shown with the quantity and weight fields populated with the open value on the purchase order. The screens are now populated with the open value and if the open value is the same as the value received, the user can simply accept the line. The Receive All field on the PUR550D1-01 screen determines whether the receipt lines are populated with the open value. A system parameter controls the Receive All default value but the default value can be overridden.  

If this option is selected, the user does not have to enter the open quantity or weight. If the purchase order receipt has many lines, this option saves time and prevents errors.

This enhancement allows users to restrict access to purchase order print programs. The purchase order print programs were updated to provide security validation for the user who selects the purchase orders to print. The security validation is controlled by the PO Print Security Validation flag on the Purchasing System Parameters screen, PUR820D-04. This enhancement gives users the option to restrict access to purchase order print programs, providing additional security at the company and warehouse levels.
