Synchronize External Acc/Pay/Sys with Purch

[Peter_Vidal@xxxxxxxx]

Hello guys!

Sorry about the lack of information since the beginning.  We have IM and PUR
interfacing and we are doing the things MAPICS' likes most: using its own
processes.  Everything is OK here, excluding the fact that this AP package is
not sending payment information back to MAPICS.  However, we are just
implementing IFM and I just received information that IFM will solve this issue.
I though that all IFM deals with is with accounting modules but deals with
vendors, customers, etc.  AMEN to that!

What I have to do know is develop a way (one shot deal) to determine which
purchase orders have been fully received and have not been fully paid, so
whenever we start using IFM, these orders are normalized in that matter.  I
guess I have the details about how to do this from now on.  If you have any
suggestions, they are more than welcome.

I also want to mention that I really appreciate the feedback from DAVID SHAW and
VANESSA KING.   They reminded me the words from Albert Einstein that said that
"Imagination is more important than knowledge".

Thank you all!

Peter Vidal

Acc/Pay/Sys with Purch


Hello guys!

This is the case.  I receive the inventory material (or expense) through
MAPICS but I have an external A/P System (I know what, when and how I pay an
order) which I use to pay the order.  I am not feeding MAPICS with this
event. There is a manual intervention to solve these kind of situations.
The question is: (technically speaking) which are the areas (files,fields,
etc.) if have to be aware of to accomplish this task?  I want to process
everything in MAPICS' way.

Anybody that can give some tips and/or advises? Thanks!

Peter Vidal
