Miscellaneous differences

This topic describes the remaining differences between Infor LN 10.2.0 and Infor LN 10.2.1 in Procurement.

Approved supplier list

In Infor LN 10.2.1, the Approved Supplier List (tdipu0110m200) was added. In this session, you can view the buy-from business partners who are approved to supply a specific item.

Delivery based renamed to receipt based

In Infor LN 10.2.0, purchase schedule types can be shipment based or delivery based. These types are used to calculate the dates and times when you pick up the goods from the ship-from business partner's warehouse (shipment based) or when you want the goods to be delivered to your warehouse by the business partner (delivery based).

In Infor LN 10.2.1, delivery based is renamed to Receipt Based.

Editable grid for purchase receipts

In Infor LN 10.2.0, you can update purchase receipts only in the details mode of the Purchase Receipts (tdpur4106m000) session.

In Infor LN 10.2.1, the grid of the Purchase Receipts (tdpur4106m000) overview session is now editable. For example, you can change the Received Quantity in the overview session.

Frozen period calculations

In Infor LN 10.2.0, when calculating frozen periods for purchase schedule lines, calendar days were always used.

In Infor LN 10.2.1, the Use Working Days for Frozen Period check box was added to the Purchase Contract Line Logistic Data (tdpur3102m000) and Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) sessions. If this check box is selected, working days are used when calculating frozen periods. If this check box is selected, calendar days are used.

In Infor LN 10.2.0, for Shipment Based schedules, schedule lines can be created when the planned shipment date is inside and the planned receipt date outside the frozen period. Schedule quantities can be modified even when the planned shipment date is inside the frozen period.

In Infor LN 10.2.1, if the purchase schedule is Shipment Based, frozen time limits are based on planned shipment dates. Schedule lines cannot be created or updated when the planned shipment date is inside the frozen period.

Landed costs by business object

To view, enter, and maintain the landed costs that are linked to a selected purchase order or warehouse transfer order, the following sessions were added in Infor LN 10.2.1:

The Landed Cost Lines by Schedule (tclct2100m400) session was introduced to have an overview of all landed costs for a selected purchase schedule.

Landed costs by business partner

In Infor LN 10.2.1, Landed Cost Lines by Business Partner (tclct2600m000) is a new composite session in which you can view all expected and actual landed costs for a particular business partner.
