SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Operating Infor ERP through an AI assistant is risky because every goods receipt, invoice match, or journal posting is an audited financial event, and the three product lines (M3, LN, SyteLine/CSI) name the same objects and screens differently, so acting with the wrong line's assumptions targets the wrong screen or field. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Product-line identification: Distinguishes M3 (program codes like PPS200/MMS060), LN (session codes like tdpur/tfacp/whinh), and SyteLine (named forms and IDOs) before any action, including which line sits under each CloudSuite edition. - Action classification and gating: Classifies every operation as read, reversible write, committing write, or destructive, with rules for when to stop for human approval (e.g., posting a receipt, releasing a matching hold, reopening a closed period). - Domain gotchas and recovery patterns: Covers 22 real failure modes such as LN's decoupled integration transactions, MAUC average-cost distortion, ION approval state living outside the ERP screen, and BOD replication lag, plus how to reverse receipts, vouchers, and payments safely. - Use Case: When asked to post a supplier invoice in Infor LN, the skill directs checking the fiscal and tax period status, verifying the three-way match tolerance, and confirming integration transactions are processed before treating the ledger as current. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant how to safely receive a purchase order and match a supplier invoice in Infor M3 without posting into a closed period.

FAQPage Schema
How do I safely post a goods receipt in Infor ERP?

First identify the product line (M3, LN, or SyteLine), then read the PO's approval, match, period, and status state before posting. A goods receipt is a committing financial event that increases inventory and drives a GL posting, so it requires human approval and a re-read at execute time.

What is the difference between Infor M3, LN, and SyteLine?

M3 (ex-Movex) serves process and distribution industries using program codes like PPS200, LN (ex-Baan) serves discrete and project manufacturing using session codes like tdpur, and SyteLine/CSI serves mid-market discrete manufacturing using named forms and IDOs. CloudSuite edition names indicate industry, not the underlying line.

Why does the Infor LN general ledger not match logistics after a receipt?

LN decouples logistics from finance: a warehouse receipt creates an integration transaction that only reaches the GL after it is mapped and posted. Reading the GL before processing integration transactions shows stale finance, and unprocessed transactions block a clean period close.

Can a closed accounting period be reopened in Infor to force a posting?

Reopening a closed period is a finance-close decision, not a workaround, and LN's Finally Closed period status can never reopen. Corrections for closed periods should be made as new entries dated in the current open period.

When should a matching hold on a supplier invoice be released?

A matching hold should be cleared by fixing the underlying price, quantity, or tax variance and re-matching, not by releasing the hold or loosening the tolerance. Releasing a hold to force payment is a destructive action requiring a named approver.

Does this skill cover SAP or Oracle ERP systems?

No, it is scoped to Infor M3, LN, and SyteLine/CSI only. SAP materials and finance work belongs to the sap-mm and sap-fi skills, Oracle Fusion and EBS to oracle-erp, and Infor EAM asset management to the separate infor-eam skill.
