| This topic lists the available differences topics for Project. The topic describes the differences between Infor ERP LN 6.1 FP6 and Infor ERP LN 6.1 FP7. New and changed functionality Infor ERP LN 6.1 FP7 includes the following new and changed functionality: Integration with ERP LN Service To ensure that Project budget and project costs originating from Service are in sync, you can now map service costs to their respective cost types in Project. For more information, refer to Mapping of Service costs to Project Phantom items To prevent errors when an engineer manually picks a standard set of components, the user can raise a phantom item on a budget line. When the warehouse order is created, the item will be exploded, which guarantees that the entire set of components is picked from the warehouse. Visibility of production costs Visibility of production costs in Project is improved by the following: Project Status and Activity Description fields are added to Print Cost Forecast by Activity / Cost type (tpppc2426m000) session. To the same session a Details button is added to access the Project Selection (tppdm6800m000) session. A new report type ( Performance Index ), added to the Print Performance Measurement (tpppc5440m000) session, allows users to generate a report with additional columns for two performance indexes: Cost performance index Schedule performance index Manufacturing costs (PCS WIP) were visible in only two Project sessions: Control by Project (tpppc4510m000) Control by Project/Cost Type (tpppc4511m000) A new setting in the PPC Parameters (tpppc0500m000) session allows users to access the Cost Price by Customized Item (tipcs3550m000) session from the following sessions: Control by Project/Material (tpppc4513m000) Control by Project/Element/Material (tpppc4523m000) Control by Project/Activity/Material (tpppc4550m000) Control by Project/Extension/Material (tpppc4533m000) Activity Budget (Material Lines) (tpptc2110m000) Element Budget (Material Lines) (tpptc1510m000) Budget snapshots In the Budget Cost Analysis Versions by Project (tpptc3500m000) session, two fields are added: Initial Budget Update Mode These fields allow users to compare two budget-cost analysis versions via the Compare Budget Cost Analysis (tpptc3420m000) session. Enhanced margin and profitability calculation In the Estimate Lines (tpest2100m000) session, gross and net profit percentages are shown. The calculation of these percentages is determined by a new setting ( Profit Base ) in the General Project Parameters (tppdm0500m000) session. Visibility of Project-PCS relationships The visibility of Project-PCS relationships is improved by the following: Project Status field is added to Project-PCS Relationships (tppdm6150m000) session. Project (TP) range is added to Print Project-PCS Relationships (tppdm6450m000) session. PCS Project status is added to corresponding report. Project deliverables A new session allows users to ship project-related deliverables: From the project WIP warehouse to the business partner. From the project site via the project WIP warehouse to the business partner. |
