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

Note:  Only programmers who are authorized to customize your application must use the parameter setup forms. Any modifications 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 to use the parameter settings forms. The Global Parameters Setup form is used to define the parameters to be displayed and specified on the Global Parameters form, which affects all Infor Factory Track transactions and forms. The Transactions Setup form is used to determine what transactions are available in the application and to define the parameters used by each transaction. This form can be used to add custom transactions to your parameter management system.

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.
  • Transaction Set Maintenance: Use this form to configure parameters for individual transactions.
  • Transaction Warehouse Order Type Print Parameters: Use this form to configure label printing settings for specific transactions at the transaction or warehouse level.
  • User Extensions: Use this form to configure settings for individual users.
  • Warehouse Parameters: Use this form to configure parameters for warehouses
    Note: The parameter Allow lot Change is modified as Allow location and lot change. The lot field must follow the location field to get enabled or disabled for validation of the warehouse.
    You can also use this form to configure alternate transaction settings that only apply to a specified warehouse.
