The security validation is controlled by the PO Print Security Validation flag on the Purchasing System Parameters screen, PUR820D-04. This enhancement gives users the option to restrict access to purchase order print programs, providing additional security at the company and warehouse levels.

Baan / LN tip of the Week: approving a new tax code

Kathy Barthelt 0 42434 Article rating: 5.0

Prior to approving a new tax code, the system displays a message, “An approved tax code cannot be changed anymore. Continue?” This is concerning to end users if they take the message literally. The user can answer “Yes” to the question as it refers to the tax details, not the rates or ledger accounts. A user can always change the tax rate and ledger accounts after it has been approved. All taxing authorities change rates periodically, so it is logical that these could be updated as needed.

OTTO: Making plans happen isn't just about material

Anthony Etzel 0 22720 Article rating: 5.0

Making plans happen isn't just about material. Other things can be the real cause of delays.

OTTO provides the ability to proactively manage the entire customer order backlog from top to bottom. It begins monitoring orders as soon as they’re booked and identifies and prioritizes those critical events that must happen every day so they can be managed and get orders produced and shipped on time.  Learn more

BPCS / LX Tip of the Week: Facility Security Ranges

Anthony Etzel 0 30663 Article rating: 5.0

Previously, a user was able to complete the Cost Transfer (CST920) process for any range of facilities regardless of their security settings established in SYS600. This enhancement verifies the user security settings that were set up in SYS600 before processing cost transfers for a range of facilities in CST920. If the user has authority for a facility range, but there are facilities within that range that are not authorized, the program skips those facilities and complete the cost transfer process. After the user enters a range in the CST920 screen that is outside of their authority set up in SYS600, a message is displayed that explains they are not authorized to all facilities. Before the enhancement was applied, a user could enter any range in CST920 and it would transfer the costs, regardless of their security level. This enhancement provides security in CST920 that prevents incorrect cost transfers from being processed.

TECHNOLOGY: Facility Security Ranges

Previously, a user could complete the Cost Transfer (CST920) process for any range of facilities regardless of their security settings established in SYS600. This enhancement verifies the user security settings set up in SYS600 before processing cost transfers for a range of facilities in CST920. If the user has authority for a facility range, but there are facilities within that range that are not authorized, the program skips those facilities and completes the cost transfer process.

FINANCE: Expiration Date for Quotes and RMAs

A Cancel-by-Date has been added to the Quote Header and RMA Header panels. This optional field can limit how long a quote or authorization to return items for credit is valid.  

For quotes, this enhancement provides an optional end date for the quote. For RMAs, it provides an optional date by which the customer must return the items to receive the credit listed on the RMA.

The Cancel-By-Date prints on the Order Acknowledgement and RMA Acknowledgement to inform the customer of this important limitation to the quote or return authorization. 

An Order Entry user cannot copy the quote to create a new order if the Cancel By Date has caused the quote to expire.

OPERATIONS: Default Split Salesperson to Customer Orders

Sales commissions are based on combinations of the Primary, Split, and Line-Level salesperson and the commission codes defined for the customer and item. You can now define the Split Salesperson in the same master files as the Primary Salesperson. While the Primary Salesperson is mandatory, the Split Salesperson is optional. It defaults during Order Create using the identical hierarchy as Primary Salesperson. Using Split Salesperson provides more flexibility in the calculation of sales commissions. The ability to define a default Split Salesperson improves the accuracy of sales commission qualification and calculation and reduces maintenance and adjustments necessitated by corrections.

This enhancement verifies the user security settings set up in SYS600 before processing cost transfers for a range of facilities in CST920. If the user has authority for a facility range, but there are facilities within that range that are not authorized, the program skips those facilities and completes the cost transfer process.
