What guidelines does your organization utilized to approve/deny inventory item stocking request

What are Lawson's plans for incorporating UDI (unique device identification) bar coding and tracking / reporting   Or do they have any plans for this yet  Who do I need to talk with Not entirely clear here, but Lawson needs the ability (and fields) to scan these bar codes, and associate with receipts.  Items, Devices, etc. Anyone know anything about this, yet

How can I locate the version of RQC we are running

Is anyone willing to share their process for handling temporary manufacturer item back-orders   Currently we basically do a full conversion for items that are on a lengthy back-order. Recently, we've had some back-order items that were thought to have a lengthy back-order, but then came back within days or a week of us doing a conversion. It's a lot of work as some of the items are in several pars and store rooms and on many templates.   Is a 'temporary' conversion the only solution or is t...

I'm finding that we have items that have a / in the item number that will not return a result in RQC.  An example would be 1688T/52.  Is this a limitation of RQC or something we can change/update within Lawson to allow users to search the actual item number

I tried to post this in the SysAdmin forum but I haven't gotten any responses and I was wondering if maybe you all might know: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi everyone, Not sure if this is the correct forum to post in but I'm trying to automate a query using Powershell.

Is anyone aware of a quick reference guide for using comments in RQC Looking for information to use for instructing our users on which comments to use, how they work and where they display. I've been able to find and test most of the comments but I am having trouble finding any information on the header and line comments that are 'display only'. I see these on RQ10 but not when printing the req from RQC. Also do not see them on POs. Is there any guide as to where these do and do not show  ...

I have had my perpetual inventory for a year and have recently run into items that have been frozen, though I can't find any reason that these items have remained frozen from previous jobs.  It is only a few items but utilizing the jobs I have in IC175 and IC179 don't seem to affect these them.  Is there anyway I can resolve this, figure out what job created the freeze on these items

Curious to see at what point you inactivate a users RQ04 account after inactivity.  Currently we do it after 9 months on the user not submitting a requistion.  We need to either reduce the number of months or purchase more licenses so wanted to see what others are doing.

(I am a simple Lawson user.  We are a small rural health facility.  My knowledge is user based not ADMIN based.  You may need to dummy down your answer for me.  LOL) Surgery is notorious for having items that they never use but have to stock.  We use a par cart location (IC81) for surgery.  These items are in our general stores (IC12) but with a location of OR0000. (meaning only stocked in surgery) this way they can be on the count sheet.  We do not want any stocked in purchasing due to high c...

Hello - We are in the early stages of testing MSCM (to be implemented in May) & are having trouble with RAD.  PO receipts seem to upload OK from MSCM but PO receipts are not visible in PO30.  Any ideas  We ran in to this same issue years ago (before my time) & I'm told we were never able to find root cause.  Thanks, Beth

We are currently using the Lawson Fax Integrator and have been having a lot of issues recently. We are looking to pursue alternate solutions and was wondering what others use and the likes/dislikes you see Thanks in advance!  - Shannon

Does anyone have documentation they can share on what the steps are for adding/removing users from Fax Integrator.

Hello - We want to dissolve our EP lab inventory in to the existing one for the Cath lab at one of our hospitals.  They already share the same cost center, & having them separate causes a lot of extra work.  All items already exist in Cath, so no new IC12's needed. Would IC22.1 Transfers be the best method Any reason to consider IC22.2 What reports should we run before & after these transactions What impact will this have to the GL Any direction is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

My manager is looking for some feedback about the AP10 Vendor Class.  Is anyone willing to share their classes/logic  Is there any industry standard that we could apply to it

Is there a way to limit the vendors that users see in RQC  We have some vendors that we don't want users to be able to use through service specials but they're able to pull them up.  Is there anything within AP10/PO10 that would allow us to 'hide' the vendor from RQC

The director is looking for an average time between when items are doc logged and when they are delivered. What MSCM tables and fields would I pull to get this information so I could find the average time

Hi,   Curious if the replacement field in IC11 plays nice with MSCM.  I know if an item is placed in that field and the SOH gets to zero it will push the requestor to the 'replacement item' in RQC.  Will this do the same for those utilizing handhelds for MSCM

I have several MSCM orders that failed due to one item getting a Unit Cost Required error. I did find on the IC12 that the replenishment info was missing, so I fixed that. I also went to the PO25.6 and made sure the agreement had been released. I went back to MSCM and selected the RESEND option, but the order goes from Pending to failed again. Not sure what I'm missing or what I'm doing wrong.

OK - we have items that have multiple UOMs in the bin. What table tells me what's in the bin with the UOM  I've only ever looked at via drill around to Details folder. Now I want a query for it. I

Would any of you be willing to share some general guidelines on the security setup of the Supply Chain Analyst team in Lawson, especially for Healthcare organizations  Does that group have full access to PO IC & WH, or is that add/change/delete limited to just the owners of those areas Also, is your Supply Chain Analyst team its own team, or are they considered part of Purchasing/Inventory/Receiving

Do cycle counts create a transaction in transaction history as reported in IC220

Looking to see what the trick is to upload to the user fields in IC81.  I see that they're on the ITEMLOC table.  Just can't seem to find the correct field within addins to upload to.  We'd like to upload to Item Location Alpha 1 and Item Location Numeric 1.

Synthetic grafts are charged by the square cm.  We purchase by EA which has a dimension, for example, 6 cm x 16 cm.  For anyone running an interface between Lawson and their EMR, how is the supply cost converted to the patient charge

I ran my IC238 (Bin Stock on Hand) and found that we had 2 different UOM going for the same bin. (This item comes 20each/box)      Bin Location  R90002 5 bx                            R90002 12 ea   (this equals 112 each)  When I physically counted, we had 102 ea SOH = 5 box 2 ea. (our count is off by 10 from IC238) Honestly, at this point I have no idea what SOH in IC44 was.  It looks like it was 102 ea.  I entered into IC26  : 5 bx to ea, but it said Insufficent stock on hand. I change...
