Enterprise Planning (other differences)

This topic describes the differences between the Enterprise Planning package in Infor LN and Infor LN SP1 that are not already discussed in other Differences topics.

New functionality

  • You can use the new Resource Order Plan Chart (cprrp0731m000) session to display data from your resource order plan in a graphical format.
  • You can use the new Repair Planned Orders (cprrp3200m000) session to repair corrupted data. Data corruption can occur with multisite (multi-company) transactions performed on multiple servers. For more information, refer to the Repair Planned Orders (cprrp3200m000) session Help.

Changed functionality

  • The effect of the values of the Backward Forecast Consumption and the Forward Forecast Consumption fields has been adapted. If an item does not have an item master plan, the demand forecast for the day in which the planned or actual delivery dates of a customer order fall is always consumed, regardless of the value entered in these fields.
  • If you transfer planned production orders to the Shop Floor Control module in Manufacturing by using the Transfer Planned Orders (cppat1210m000) session, LN will respect the material selections and quantities as planned by the Enterprise Planning package. For more information, refer to Transferring orders to execution level.
  • In Infor LN SP1, the week-bucket planning procedure is no longer available.
