Integrator training - We just posted our first Integrator training course in Infor U. It's called IDF: Foundation for Developers. It is online, instructor-led with hand-on workshops. We teach you how to create new objects in IDF from DB2 tables. These are full-function, user-customizable and maintainable objects that look and act just like the ones you get from the Infor development teams.

This course is 2.5 days delivered in 4 hour sessions each day for a week. The instructor  Read more...will show you how to do something using a demonstration system and PowerPoint slides, then give you time to do the same thing using detailed instructions (every keystroke and mouse click, with screen shots) to do it yourself.

Go to education.infor.com. On the left click Course Catalog. Search on IDF. You will see two courses, one for end users and one for developers. The end user course (or equivalent experience) is a prerequisite.

We have classes scheduled for the rest of the year. Check it out! Show less...

Has anyone created custom help text for their XA Power-Link or SiWA? The information Infor provided on doing this was a bit clunky and I was hoping to find real world usage and configuration...

[Special Announcement] A GREAT BIG THANK YOU to those who responded to our call to submit XA topic ideas for the InPower2025 conference.

As we mentioned, we are always looking for ideas to keep content fresh. Last week, we reached out to the XA User Group members asking you to submit YOUR ideas for topics you’d like to see covered at the conference! While we had hoped for broader participation, we did receive submissions from six of our XA using peers. As a matter of fact,  Read more...each one submitted more than one idea! We definitely got some good ideas from them so a great big thank you to this group! While we originally said we were going to put the names of those who submitted ideas into a hat and draw 5 winners, since there were only six responders, we decided to give each one of them a $100 Amazon Gift Card!

THANK YOU to those of you who took the time to submit ideas, it is greatly appreciated! And remember, if you ever have ideas for improvements or topics for InPOWER, please let us know! This conference is for XA Users so help us cater to you and your needs!

Shipment Creation with System Link

Hello,

For a long time, we used to use Offline Shipping to proceed our Shipment from our mobile solution (through a call 'AMVOWXFR' ran on the server) . it works fine, but today , we would like to improve / modernize that shipment process and doing it with system-link.
There are some different ways to ship in XA :
- Order entry + Immediate shipment (COM - 1 - 3)
- Pick list + Confirmation (COM - 1 + 2 + 9)
- Direct shipment creation from an order ( Read more...COM - 1- 11- 8)

Has anyone already used System-link to create shipment from outside XA ?
If yes i would be really interested in 😀

i currently use 9.2.2.3 XA releases for my XA environement.
Thank you
Christophe

How do you handle Time zones across Environments?

I raised an Enhancement Request with Infor to have time zone configurable by Environment. Ideally it would be configurable at the warehouse level, but I could understand how that could cause other headaches. How does your business handle the time only being set at the LPAR level when you have multiple environments? Right now, we just have to have everyone all over the world look at EST and do the math.

Here is the link to my ER if you would like to add a vote.  Read more... https://mingle-portal.us2.prd3.inforcloudsuite.com/v2/CONCIERGE_PRD/?LogicalId=lid://infor.cxp.1&Tab=ERS&ERId=115698 Show less...

Has anyone heard if they are going to add a option to create a subset from the filter row settings? So after going through and setting all your filters you don't have to then go create a subset separately and do all the selections again.
