Global Trade Compliance

The Global Trade Compliance functionality can be used to check if specific items can be exported to a specific country or 'from or to' a specific business partner.

This functionality is used to:

  • Execute internal or external checks, or both. The internal checks are executed in Infor LN and the external checks are executed using an external application.
  • Create and maintain export licenses. This information is used during the internal compliance check.

For the external check, export and import compliance data is specified for each item. This data can be sent to an external application and used as input for the compliance check. If the check fails, the export or import of goods is blocked. However, an authorized user can override the compliance check failures for documents and the export or import block can be overruled.

To implement the functionality:

  • The Global Trade Compliance check box must be selected in the Concepts (Logistics) tab, in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.
  • The Export Compliance check box must be selected in the Global Trade Compliance Parameters (tcgtc0100m000) session.
  • The Subject to Trade Compliance check box must be selected in the Items (tcibd0501m000) session.

Additional global trade compliance data can be specified at the export document level. This information can be printed on the Export reports.
