Infor LN & Baan Tip: Defining “Unavailability” in Infor LN

This topic describes the definition of temporary unavailability for resources in a calendar.

Use one of the following sessions:

  • Recurring unavailability
    For recurring unavailability, such as national holidays, define the recurrence in the Recurrences (tcccp0143m000) session. Add that recurrence to the applicable calendar and availability type in the Calendar Recurrences (tcccp0144m000) session, and clear the Available check box for the unavailable days.
    With calendar recurrences you define recurring exceptions in a calendar, and set a time schedule for daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly unavailable time in one action.
  • Unavailable days for all availability types
    To define occasional unavailability, such as a department trip, use the Calendar Non-Available Days (tcccp0119m000) session. What you define here applies to all availability types.
     
  • Unavailable days for a specific availability type
    To define unavailability for a single day, complete the following steps:
  1. Start the Calendar Working Hours (tcccp0120m000) session.
  2. Find the applicable calendar and availability type, and clear the Available check box for a working hours type on the relevant date.
  • Unavailable during a part of a day
    To indicate that part of a day is unavailable, use the Calendar Recurrences (tcccp0144m000) or the Calendar Working Hours (tcccp0120m000) session to specify the time intervals that are available. All other times are considered unavailable. You cannot directly specify an unavailable time interval.

If you defined unavailable dates in the Calendar Non-Available Days (tcccp0119m000) or the Calendar Recurrences (tcccp0144m000) session, in the Calendar Working Hours (tcccp0120m000) session, click Update Calendar.

Note:

  • Unavailability always applies to entire days. If the Calendar Working Hours (tcccp0120m000) session contains multiple time intervals for a single date, and the Available check box is cleared for some intervals and selected for other intervals on the same day, the entire day is unavailable.
  • A calendar recurrence that makes a day unavailable has no effect on the availability of that day in the parent calendar.


It is not useful to define a special availability type for unavailability, because Infor LN does not maintain and update the working hours and the capacity data of a calendar in the Calendar Working Hours (tcccp0120m000) session based on non-available availability types.

This feature provides the ability to enter information in the shelf life days and retest days fields for non-QMS lot controlled items, even when the QMS product is installed. The purpose of this enhancement is to allow the user to enter information for non-QMS lot controlled items even when QMS is activated in Parameters Generation, SYS800D. In previous versions, when QMS was activated, the Shelf Life Days and Retest Days fields in Facility Planning Maintenance (MRP140) and Item Master Maintenance (INV100) were not maintainable for non-QMS lot controlled items. The user is now able to change non-QMS lot controlled items even when a QMS product is installed.

The Facility Period Close process, as introduced in Infor LX 8.3.4, was designed to function interactively. 

The expectation was that clients with a continuous or 24-hour worldwide operation in multiple facilities would submit the Period End Close jobs for each facility as daily operations ceased or shifts ended for each facility. This process was designed to function interactively so that validations of users performing transactions that conflicted with period end processing, and resulting messages, were immediately sent to the period end user. 

This enhancement provides a batch mode for the Facility Period Close (INV930) process and allows the Update IIM Inventory from IWI (INV931) process to be submitted from the INV930B program. The enhancement also provides a batch mode for the INV931 process. For example, a user has a 24-hour operation in facilities around the world, but a centralized IT operation. With this enhancement the user can submit the individual facilities to be closed to a batch process that can be managed by a scheduler, automatically releasing each facility to be closed at a predetermined time.
