  • The Scope of an ERP Project
    Everything we’ve been discussing throughout this series goes back to the scope of the ERP. The scope of the ERP is best defined through the strategic vision, which has to take into account business transformation, goals, and objectives in the areas where the organization needs the most improvement. What are the situations? How long does it take us to issue a permit? How does it take us to complete a procurement? How long does it take a business entity to respond to a solicitation? All of these...

  • The Technical Backend of the Cloud vs. On-Premises
    I know that for some organizations considering a move to the cloud, there's some hesitation of not being in control of the underlying hardware or data center that they’re running. It feels like maybe there's a bit of a risk here in not managing and owning all the infrastructure. But I feel like there's a false sense of security that can come with this attitude, because even organizations that have invested in a robust disaster recovery plan have discovered that they’re not always as fail-saf...

  • How to Make Point Solutions Work for You
    I think everyone acknowledges that the concept of having a single ERP that handles everything you need has been outdated for a while. It can become difficult and overwhelming having a different solution for each piece, as well as thousands of integrations and interdependencies. This is why it's about finding the right happy medium for your organization, which is something that starts with a foundation that's going to take care of 80-90% of your needs. While it's possible that there are some thin...

  • GHR Reporting Capabilities in the Public Sector
    In general, Infor has incredible reporting capabilities. While a multitude of reports are actually delivered within the system, it also has the capability to extract data into an Excel spreadsheet. One of the great things about GHR is the visibility that managers have into their own employees' data, where they can run a report to see who in their group has a vaccination or has been given a face shield, ect. Anyone who is an administrator can use these company-wide reports, which would be some of...

  • What's data got to do with it? RPI's Pre-Planning approach to conversions
    The conversion scope and strategy that we decide on during pre-planning has a pretty big impact on the structure of the overall transition project, as does the work effort and direct cost for this implementation. Let's discuss how and what we focus on during this important phase in the pre-planning project, as well as what it means for your overall implementation. There are three different kinds of data that we can talk about in terms of conversion: master data, transactional data, and hi...

  • The Project Scope & Approach for an RPI Pre-Planning Event
    Today we’re going to discuss the project scoping and approach. We begin with some as-is discovery where we're really focused on understanding how this organization has made use of Lawson, or potentially other third-party systems whose functionality will impact the move to CloudSuite. This action is always taken with an eye on practical scoping, so it's not a full-blown optimization assessment. We're really honing in on those details that are pertinent to the work effort and pla...

  • Preparing for an RPI Pre-Planning Event
    A question we often get from clients who are looking to implement CloudSuite is what should an organization do to prepare for an RPI pre-planning event? While I think it’s the same as planning for an engagement, there are basically two things to consider. The first is that the better you both understand and document your current processes and pain points, the better you can articulate them to a consultant. This way we already know what you’re looking to achieve from the beginning ins...

    Mike Gardner, our esteemed, long-time colleague, has officially retired from the RPI ranks and Infor-Lawson community. A sales superhero, Mike had a lengthy career in consulting and sales which outlasted most everyone I know. In addition to working at RPI, he previously owned his own consulting firm, Mid-Point Consultants, and some larger Systems Integrators before that. He was an icon in the Infor-Lawson market, truly a classy guy, and he certainly will be missed.   I will always re...

  • Scaling a mountain? Take a coat - and a good guide!
    One of my favorite analogies to illustrate the complexity of planning for an analytics implementation is to compare it with setting off to climb Mt. Everest. The objective is clear, you want to climb to the top of the mountain. But that’s the easy part—how are you going to make that happen? Would you attempt this expedition on your own? Probably not. Why? Because the risks are too high; maybe even fatal. You know you’re not the first one who’s set out to achieve this ...

  • BI & Analytics Maturity, Where does your Organization Fall?
    Where does your organization rank when it comes to BI & Analytics maturity? We agree that most organizations are either Basic (spreadsheet-based analyses and personal data extracts) or Opportunistic (individual business units pursue their own data and analytics initiatives as stand-alone projects, lacking leadership and central guidance); so where do you start if you want to improve your maturity? Don’t reinvent the wheel and make the same mistakes others have, lean on the experts at R...

If you've attended one of my talks, you know one of my favorite phrases is "Methodology over Technology.” A successful implementation relies not only on working with a team that understands the tech, but also has a comprehensive methodology...

These are some of the most requested training classes and they’re going to be led by some of Infor’s leading instructors. If you’ve had your eye on any of the courses, I can’t recommend strongly enough taking advantage of this opportunity. You get the entire course content condensed into two days which is really going to maximize the time you spend. The training will take place in Infor’s Educational Floor in their St. Paul headquarters which was just renovated and re-opened a couple of years ago, so the facilities are nice, new, and comfortable. I highly encourage you to check it out, especially since time is running short to sign up!

  • A Step in the Right Direction
    This past week, I spent three days in New York City at Infor’s Executive Offices. It was a great visit, and the weather ranged from 30 to 70 degrees, sunny and rainy, and ready to snow as I left. What diversity and what a time in the city that never sleeps. I attended Infor’s Inaugural HCM Partner Summit where they updated us on the latest products, strategy, and marketing in and around the entire HCM Suite. It was great to get a status update on the global payroll strategy and v11 Landmark Payroll: anyone interested in being a v11 Payroll Beta? We also got to hear the executive commitment around HCM product development, strategy, and where Infor is headed from Charles Phillips, Stephan Scholl, and Soma Somasundaram, who joined the Summit.

  • Finance Blog: Coding to the Inventory Account… from AP!
    It happens way more often than organizations realize.  Invoices get coded directly to the inventory account – which is no bueno when we are talking about a balance sheet GL account that is purportedly supposed to tie to a sub system (and that system is IC, not AP!)

  • Perceptive Content AP eForm Custom Connector
    The AP Invoice eForm product for Perceptive Content offered by Lexmark Enterprise Software provides for a streamlined data entry process for many Accounts Payable departments. One pain point many people have experienced is its use of the “Virtual Tables”, a method used by this Perceptive eForm for storing Vendor, GL, and PO data. While these tables have satisfied the requirement of allowing the eForm to store and retrieve data for years, they aren’t perfect. Some of the issues we see include heavy resource usage and slow query speeds.
