Infor LX & BPCS Tip of the Week: ION Tip – Pausing Receiving and Sending of Messages

If it is necessary to pause sending and receiving of BOD messages on your IBM i during your month-end process, it is best practice for the document flows that point to the IBM i to guarantee delivery of BOD messages. Once the month-end process has been completed, you will need to Resume the ‘Receiving’ and ‘Sending’ Active Connection Points so your documents will continue to process.

Pausing Sending messages

To pause sending messages to ION:

  1. Select Connect > Active Connection Points.
  2. Select the connection point that must be paused for sending messages.
  3. In the Sending Paused column, click Pause. The page is automatically refreshed and the Sending Paused checkbox is selected. A Resume button becomes available. 

Sending of messages by this connection point is stopped. No new messages are picked up from the source application's outbox. The connection point still processes messages that were already picked up from the outbox. This action can take some time in the background even though the sending status of the connection point is already changed to Paused. Any new message, that was published from an application after the sending of its connection point is paused, has not yet entered ION and is not yet available in ION OneView.

Pausing Receiving messages

To pause receiving messages from ION:

  1. Select Connect > Active Connection Points.
  2. Select the connection point that must be paused for receiving messages.
  3. In the Receiving Paused column, click Pause. The page is automatically refreshed and the Receiving Paused checkbox is selected. A Resume button becomes available.

Receiving messages by the connection point is paused.  No new messages are delivered to the destination application's inbox. All new incoming messages to this application are parked in its incoming pending messages queue inside ION.  The connection point still processes messages that were already picked up from the incoming pending messages queue. This action may take some time in the background even though the receiving status of the connection point is already changed to Paused.

Resuming sending / receiving messages

To resume sending or receiving messages from ION:

  1. Select Connect > Active Connection Points.
  2. Select the connection point that must be resumed for message processing.
  3. Select one of these actions:
    1. To resume the pickup of messages from an application outbox, click Resume in the Sending Paused column.
    2. To resume the delivery of messages to an application inbox, click Resume in the Receiving Paused column.

The page is automatically refreshed and, depending on the selected action, the Sending Paused checkbox or the Receiving Paused checkbox is cleared. A Pause button is now available.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Previously, Material Requirements Planning (MRP) preferred practices meant that the component's due date was the same as the parent's shop order release date. Because MRP trends have changed, the preference for this due date is the day before the release date of the parent. Although Infor LX already has this functionality in Shop Order Maintenance programs (SFC500), users could not change how due dates were determined for lower-level shop orders in Multi-Level Shop Order Release, SFC530D.

This enhancement provides an additional parameter for Multi-Level Shop Order Release. This parameter allows the user to change how the due date of the child components is determined. The Multi-Level Shop Order Release, SFC5302, has a new parameter for shop orders. The Due Date of Children = Release Date of Prent (Due Date of Children) field allows the user to set the due date determined for multi-level shop orders.

This feature uses different exchange rates in the user's inventory processes by using new macros in Post Inventory to G/L, INV920D. INV920 used macros limited by the Override Exchange Rate parameter set on the book in Book Definition, CEA105D3. If the Override Exchange rate parameter is set to No, the macro uses the Rate Type of the Book. If the Override Exchange parameter is set to Yes, the macro uses the Rate Type of the Order Company. This enhancement provides macros that use the Rate Type of the Order Company. This enhancement provides macros that use the Rate Type of the Warehouse Company, Order Company, or the Book regardless of the Override Exchange Rate parameter in the Book.

Tips: LN | Baan

Two big sources of inefficiencies in manufacturing are paper and spreadsheets. I know that you love ‘em, but they are the cause of more problems than you probably realize. Think of how long it takes you to get paper based data into the hands of those who can do something valuable with the data.
  • Is the information captured correctly?
  • Can everyone access the information?
  • Is this an accurate representation of what’s going on across all operations?

Make your shop floor paperless and put systems in place that talk to one another and automatically pull and push data to and from your ERP so that you can look in one place for all the information you need to run your business effectively.

If you’re not doing this today, you might as well be burning money.

In Baan IV, access can be given or denied on a user by user basis.

In Baan V and LN, the Authorization Management System can provide or deny access based upon roles to which users are assigned.
