Parameters Overview

Use the Infor Factory Track parameters forms to customize the application to meet the specific needs of your organization. There are two types of parameters forms:

Parameter definitions forms: These forms are only used by programmers who are authorized to customize your application. They define what transaction parameter settings are available.
Parameter settings forms: You can use these forms to configure the behavior of the application and its individual transactions.

Parameter Definitions Forms

Caution: Only programmers who are authorized to customize your application should use the parameter setup forms. Changes made to these forms can cause your application to function incorrectly.

The parameter setup forms are used to define what transactions and parameters are available to administrators using the parameter settings forms. The ICGlobalParametersSetup form is used to define the parameters on the Global Parameters form, which affect all Infor Factory Track transactions and forms. The Transactions Setup form is used to determine what transactions are available for parameters. This form can be used to add custom transactions to your parameter management system. The Transaction Specific Parameters Setup form is used to define parameters that only apply to specific transactions. After these transaction-specific parameters are defined, they can be configured by administrators on generated generic parameters forms that are specific to each transaction. The User Parameters form is used to create and modify parameter options for specific users.

Parameter Settings Forms

Use the parameter settings forms to configure the behavior of the application and its individual transactions. These parameter settings forms are available for the application:

Global Parameters: You can use this form to configure parameters that apply to all Infor Factory Track transactions and forms.
Transactions Settings: Use this form to configure general settings for individual transactions. You can also access transaction-specific generic parameters forms from this form.
Warehouse Parameters: Use this form to configure parameters for warehouses. You can also use this form to configure alternate transaction settings that only apply to a specified warehouse.
User Extensions: Use this form to configure settings for individual users.
Transaction-Specific Generic Parameters Forms: These forms are generated for specific transactions based upon parameters defined by programmers on the Transaction Specific Parameters Setup form. You can configure parameters that are only relevant to specific transactions on these forms. You can access these forms on the Transaction Settings form.
