Business Requirements

Infor LN FP3

In Infor LN FP3, the following Business Requirements were implemented in Financials

  • MRQ001399 Add a column delimiter to trial balance reports to facilitate export to Excel
    The various trial balance reports include the '|' character as a column separator between the debit and credit amounts, to support importing the report into Microsoft Excel for further analysis.
  • MRQ001177 Add period totals to Finalized Transactions report

    LN prints the total amounts of each period on the Finalized Transactions reports that you can print in the following sessions:

    • Print Finalized Transactions - Ledger Account (tfgld1406m000)
    • Print Finalized Transactions - Dimension/Ledger (tfgld1407m000)
  • MRQ001398 Link a text to ledger accounts and dimensions

    For this request, you can link a text to ledger accounts and dimensions in the Chart of Accounts (tfgld0508m000) and the Dimensions (tfgld0510m000) sessions. To create a text, select the ledger account or dimension and click the Text button.

  • MRQ001358 Select non-modifiable batches for finalization

    For this request, the Only System Batches check box was added to the Global Selection of Batches for Finalization (tfgld1210m000) session.

    If this check box is selected, LN only finalizes generated, non-modifiable, batches. Batches that were manually created and that the users can still modify are not finalized. If this check box is cleared, LN finalizes all the batches.

    To exclude manually created batches that have not been completed from the finalization process, you can select this check box.

  • MRQ001053 Add the problem codes to the aging analysis reports
    A credit analyst can attach a problem code to a sales invoice to indicate why the customer does not pay the invoice. If the sales invoice becomes overdue, LN prints the problem code on the aging analysis report in the Prob column at the end of the report lines. This helps the credit analyst to identify the invoice on the aging analysis report.
  • MRQ000812 Log which user approved a price variance
    In the new Invoice Authorization History (tfacp2510m000) session, LN keeps a record of the users who approve price differences and additional costs.
  • MRQ001423 Display supplier's invoice number while assigning advance payments
    In the Assign Unallocated/Advance Payments to Invoices (tfcmg2106s000) session, LN displays the supplier's invoice number in the new Supplier's Invoice Number field.
  • MRQ000884 Display the name of the bank branch

    In the following sessions, LN displays the name of the bank branch:

    • Bank Relations (tfcmg0510m000)
    • Bank Accounts by Pay-to Business Partner (tccom4525m000)
    • Bank Accounts by Pay-by Business Partner (tccom4515m000)
  • MR1109051 Compose invoices and credit notes

    In Infor LN FP2, in Invoicing, you must set up a transaction type for credit notes. Because the transaction type is a composing criterion, if the transaction types differ, LN can not compose the invoice for a sales order and the credit note for a return order on a single invoice. Especially in France and Italy, it is a requirement to consolidate the sales invoice and the credit note in a single invoice.

    In the SLI Parameters (cisli1500m000) session, the Use Order Transaction Type for Credit Note check box was added for this requirement. If you select this check box, LN uses the transaction type of the order invoice to create credit notes, and you can not enter a separate transaction type for credit notes.

    In the Transaction Types (tfgld0111s000) session, you must select the Negative Amounts Allowed check box for all the transaction types for order invoices that you select in the Integration with Finance group box of the SLI Parameters (cisli1500m000) session.

  • MRQ000666 Sort invoices at printing by business partner, invoice number, postal code
    In the new Invoice Printing Sequences (cisli1540m000) session, you can define invoice printing sequences. For each printing sequence, you can select sort criteria with different priorities. For example, you can print the invoices sorted by invoice delivery method, invoice-to address, and invoice number. For details, refer to Valuation price and invoice amounts for staggered consignments.
  • MRQ000884 Link credit notes to invoices automatically

    In Invoicing, LN can automatically settle an invoice with the related credit note for a return order.

    The following details must be passed on from Operations Management and be available in Invoicing:

    • The financial company of the original invoice
    • The transaction type of the original invoice
    • The document number of the original invoice
