BPCS/LX Tip of the Week: Handwritten Inventory Tickets

Anthony Etzel 0 20869 Article rating: No rating

Are you still using handwritten tickets for your inventory?  This method of inventory tracking is slow and prone to human error.

Putting a simple barcode system in place speeds up the process of tracking inventory movements, reduces the likelihood of mistakes, and creates a recorded history of the who/what/where that can provide valuable insight to those who make critical business decisions for your business.

Not sure where to start? Contact us and we’d be happy to help you take the first step.

Baan/LN Tip of the Week: Ledger Default Account

Kathy Barthelt 0 33615 Article rating: No rating

If you do not wish to define a detailed mapping to various ledger accounts for specific integration transactions, you can map the corresponding integration document type to a default account. All the transactions of the integration document type for which an account cannot be determined based on the mapping scheme details, are posted to the default account.

 

The mapping of an integration document type to a default account is direct, without the need for element groups and mapping elements. No distinction is made on any of the transaction details.

 

Default accounts can be used in two ways:

  • Instead of a detailed mapping to various ledger accounts. All the transactions are posted to the same account. For example, all warehouse receipts are posted to the Inventory ledger account, without any distinction.
  • In addition to a detailed mapping. If a transaction cannot be mapped based on the detailed mapping scheme, it is posted to the default account.

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.

Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for FINANCE: Integration Transactions - Compression

Compression

Integration transactions can be compressed before they are posted. For each integration document type, you can indicate whether the debit transactions and/or the credit transactions must be compressed.

Transactions can be compressed if the following transaction details have the same value:

  • The source financial company.
  • The destination financial company.
  • The transaction type and series.
  • The ledger account and dimensions.
  • The transaction currency.
  • The fiscal year and the financial period, the tax period, and the reporting period.
  • The integration document type and the Debit/Credit indicator.
  • If related gain and loss transactions are generated, the same compression criteria are used to compress these.

Note: Intergroup transactions are not compressed.
