BPCS/LX Tip of the Week: Product Routing

Anthony Etzel 0 43363 Article rating: No rating

Defining the Product Routing first requires the items to be setup in the Item Master file. Other master files also need to be defined prior to creating the routing.
These include:

  • The Facility defined with a SYS program
  • The Warehouses defined with an INV program
  • Locations defined with an INV program
  • The Machines (required if using capacity planning or an MES interface) defined with an MDM program

After the above data is set up, the Department file and Work Center files can be setup in MDM. Now you are ready to define a product route.

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 LX & BPCS Tip: Support for IBM i 7.3 and Infor LX Products

On September 30, 2022, IBM® announced the end of support of IBM i operating system 7.3 effective September 30, 2023. In line with IBM’s support policy, Infor will no longer support LX and related products on IBM i 7.3 after May 31, 2024. All Infor LX releases, patches, and related solutions are planned to be delivered and compiled at IBM i 7.4, effective June 1, 2024. These deliverables will install and function on version 7 release 4 (IBM i 7.4) and above. This will require that your operating system is at a minimum release level of IBM i 7.4.

This policy extends to other Infor LX-related technologies including WebTop, System i Workspace (SiW), and Infor Development Framework (IDF).

Action Steps If you have not done so already, we recommend that you start planning and completing your upgrade to IBM i 7.4 or above prior to June 1, 2024. After this date, if you register a support call with Infor Support, and your application still runs on IBM i 7.3 or older, you may be requested to upgrade to a supported version of the IBM i operating system.

In addition, we invite you to log on to Infor Support to view and download important information regarding Infor LX. Knowledge Base (KB) articles have been created to proactively provide you with information regarding this Announcement. ​Please consider clicking on the “Subscribe” feature within each KB article to receive notifications. Once you have subscribed, you will receive notifications when they are updated.
