| # Master Data Management This topic describes the differences between the Master Data Management module in Infor LN FP3 and in Infor LN FP5 that are not already discussed in other Differences topics. New and changed functionality Allocation Management A new check box Demand Pegging is added to the General Service Parameters (tsmdm0100m000) session. If this check box is selected, LN allocates inventory for a specific demand. LN uses item specifications to match the demand and supply of inventory. PCS items in Depot Repair A new Generate (Project) Structure for Service Orders/Depot Repair Orders (tsmdm2275m000) session is created to handle Project Control System(PCS) items in Depot Repair. Ease of Use The session supports the multi-table functionality that facilitates the entry of data to different packages from a session. Earlier, the data pertaining to different packages was entered in different sessions. Currently, the data of different packages can be entered from a single session that belongs to one of the packages. For Example, the data pertaining to Service Departments had to be entered first in Departments (tcmcs0565m000) session in Common and later in Service Departments (tsmdm1100m000) session in Service. From Infor LN FP5 onwards, you can enter the Common-related data and the Service-related data in Service Departments (tsmdm1100m000) session. You cannot enter only the Service-related data in Service Departments (tsmdm1100m000) session. The Service data must also be accompanied by Common data. However, you enter only Common data in the Service Departments (tsmdm1100m000) session and access the same data in Departments (tcmcs0565m000) session. |
