   I am looking to see if anyone has FRX running with Infor XA 7.8?
   Although FRX is no longer supported we still use it for now, and are
   looking at the options Infor is offering, but we want to go to 7.8 first.

   I had the same problem.  I loaded several PTF's recently so I'm not sure
   which one fixed the problem.

   subject: [MAPICS-L] OUTSIDE OPERATIONS RECEIVING

   ALL

   Is anyone using the Outside Operations feature within PCC (added with a
   PTF
   at release 6)?  If so, how do you execute receiving?

   We are receiving in a controlled warehouse that does not allow negative on
   hand quantity.  We must receive using an RP (RD and RI are not permitted).
   This is a code limitation not a user defined selection.  The item being
   received is a service item (Inventory Code).  I.E. PLATING.  The service
   item by definition does not have and is not permitted to have an Item
   Balance (Item Warehouse) record.  So when the RP is transacted with the
   correct quantity, a location field is being required.  Leaving the
   location
   field blank results in a hard error on the attempted transaction.  Because
   there is a location recorded with the transition, the system creates a
   location record (SLQNTY).  This is incorrect as there is no Item Balance
   record.

   Our question, how do you receive a service item on a PO without creating a
   location record?

   Any insight will be helpful.

   Kevin,

   We used that, and our set up was identical to yours EXCEPT we made the
   outside operation item an inventory item, not a service item.  We had no
   problems with the process with that defined.  We let the on-hands increase
   then periodically purged them.   Not ideal, but it worked.

   Kevin,

   You have described almost exactly how we do it here, the service item is
   set up as a purchased item type inventory code of service.  We do not have
   an item balance for the service item, and we generate the PO's through the
   automated Outside process in PCC.  The interesting part is, when we
   receive
   the PO item we do an RD , RP leave the location blank but do not get any
   errors or the location Record.  If you would like to talk about it further
   offline give a call.

   You are positive that you can do an RP against a service item and it will
   NOT create a SLQNTY record?

   automated Outside process in PCC.  The interesting part is, when we
   receive
   the PO item we do an RD , RP leave the location blank but do not get any
   errors or the location Record.  If you would like to talk about it further

   ALL

   Is anyone using the Outside Operations feature within PCC (added with a
   PTF
   at release 6)?  If so, how do you execute receiving?

   We are receiving in a controlled warehouse that does not allow negative on
   hand quantity.  We must receive using an RP (RD and RI are not permitted).
   This is a code limitation not a user defined selection.  The item being
   received is a service item (Inventory Code).  I.E. PLATING.  The service
   item by definition does not have and is not permitted to have an Item
   Balance (Item Warehouse) record.  So when the RP is transacted with the
   correct quantity, a location field is being required.  Leaving the
   location
   field blank results in a hard error on the attempted transaction.  Because
   there is a location recorded with the transition, the system creates a
   location record (SLQNTY).  This is incorrect as there is no Item Balance
   record.

   Our question, how do you receive a service item on a PO without creating a
   location record?

   Any insight will be helpful.

   Kevin,

   You have described almost exactly how we do it here, the service item is
   set
   up as a purchased item type inventory code of service.  We do not have an
   item balance for the service item, and we generate the PO's through the
   automated Outside process in PCC.  The interesting part is, when we
   receive
   the PO item we do an RD , RP leave the location blank but do not get any
   errors or the location Record.  If you would like to talk about it further
   offline give a call.
