BPCS/LX Tip of the Day: LX Inventory Pallet Status Flow

Anthony Etzel 0 38886 Article rating: No rating

Four fields in the Item/Warehouse record (IIW file) affect the disposition of the

pallet status.

 

1.  Goods Receiving Code: You define these codes in Goods Receiving Maintenance (WHM130). The codes control whether or not the stock passes through inspection, what percentage, or quantity of a delivery to inspect, and the number of quarantine days, if any.

 

2.  Inspection Zone/Inspection Location: Either the Inspection Zone or the Inspection Location must be entered on the Item/Warehouse Master Maintenance screen WHM150D2-01.

Eliminate paper
Tuesday, May 19, 2015 - 2:00PM - 3:00PM ET

 

Streamline workflow to and from the shop floor

Are you tired of dealing with mountains of shop paper? Do your workers need a single, electronic, real-time source for all production-related documentation? Join us as we discuss how you can increase accuracy, boost productivity, eliminate paper, and save money with a Manufacturing Execution System (Crossroads MES).

This webinar will highlight how to deliver a built-in workflow that streamlines the information flow to and from the shop floor. With a simple touch of the screen, MES collects and delivers the critical information you need to run your production operation. Fully integrated with your Infor LX system, MES can help manufacturers modernize and automate:

  • Supervisor/manager real-time shift review
  • Scheduling shop orders by shift or by day
  • Splitting orders
  • Capturing shop floor activity
  • Capturing indirect and downtime activities
  • Production reporting

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Role-Based Security introduces Role type profiles and allows combining the use of Role profiles with the traditional LX User type security profile functionality. The new Role type profile can be defined to allow or deny access to All Products, Attention Key, Products, Programs, and Transaction Effects. Facility, Warehouse, and Company securities are still defined solely by the User profile settings and are not affected by the assignment of a Role. Where applicable, the Role authority is displayed alongside the User authority on the security profile maintenance screens making it easy to see where there are differences in authority between the User and the assigned Roles. 

When Users are assigned to Roles, security access in LX becomes a combination of authorities granted or denied by the Role, plus any User Exceptions. User Exceptions override authorities set by the Roles. A User can also be assigned to more than one Role.

Baan/LN Tip of the Week: Financial Year End – Have you done all you need to do?

I'm reposting this checklist for things to consider in order to finish out the current year, and plan for next year…

  • Are your accounting records up to date so you can make a projection of how the current year will turn out?
  • Are all account reconciliations up to date to facilitate the closing of the books after year end?
  • Are there accounts receivable that should be reserved for or written off prior to the end of the year?
  • If your business carries inventory, do you need to plan a physical count as of the end of the year?
  • Has depreciation on your fixed assets been recorded during the year? Have you considered depreciation on current year additions?
  • Have all new asset purchases and bank loans been recorded on your books?
  • Are there any liabilities, for example, pending legal actions or warranty issues, which will need to be recorded prior to year end? 
  • Do you have a plan in place to properly “cut-off” revenue at year-end to properly match revenue and expense?
  • Will there be bonuses, profit sharing contributions or discretionary retirement plan contributions paid prior to the end of the year? How will these payments affect cash flow?
  • Will you be in compliance with your bank covenants at year end?
  • Do you need to make arrangements to receive statements as of the end of the year for cash value of life insurance, loan balances, etc.?
