Using an External Warehouse Application

Infor CloudSuite Business can be integrated with external warehouse applications such as Supply Chain Execution Warehouse Management and Transportation Management. For more information about that integration, see the Infor CloudSuite Business Integration Guide for Supply Chain Execution Warehouse Management and Transportation Management.

As part of this integration, the Controlled by External Warehouse field must be selected on the Warehouses form for warehouse operations that are controlled by an external application.

When the Controlled by External Warehouse field is selected, the warehouse inventory cannot be changed as a result of CloudSuite Business processing. Standard CloudSuite Business processing is prevented or changed on these forms:
