To store finished assembly end items

New in Infor LN FP5

In Infor LN FP3 and earlier versions, finished generic items with order system FAS could not be stored in inventory. You had to send these items to the customer immediately after the finished item came off the assembly line. In Infor LN FP5, you can store finished generic items with order system FAS in inventory.

This functionality is implemented by using two item codes for a single physical item:

  • An item of item type Generic for the assembly functionality - this item is called the generic item.
  • An item of item type Manufactured for the warehousing functionality - this item is called the standard item.
