Enabling payroll posting to M3 Finance

On the Finance tab, when you select the Post to Third Party Finance Using BODs check box, the Third Party Finance tab is displayed.

You can use this tab to enable M3 Integration and Use Legacy Vendor in Supplier Invoice BOD.

HR Payroll integrates with M3 Financials through ION using BODs. When M3 Integration is enabled, the BODs are formatted to meet M3 requirements:
  • The system limits the Journal ID to 15 characters and sends the sequence number in the variation ID.
  • The system uses FSM labels for GL accounts and dimensions.
  • The system moves Supplier Invoice Account Distribution to the line-level UserArea. The system derives the accounting entity from the GL company of the AP company.

When you run Post Payroll and Post Accrual, the system generates two BOD types:

  1. Process.SourceSystemJournalEntry (SSJE) for journal entries
  2. Process.SupplierInvoice (SI) for payroll-related payables

For more information about M3 integration, see Infor M3 Core Integration Guide for Infor HR Talent.

Payroll administrators and System administrators can enable the Post to Third Party Finance Using BODs and Third Party Finance tab fields.
