Using an External Warehouse Application
Infor CloudSuite Industrial can be integrated with external warehouse applications such as Infor SCE Warehouse Management and Transportation Management. For more information about that integration, see the Infor CloudSuite Industrial Integration Guide for Infor SCE Warehouse Management and Transportation Management.
As part of this integration, the Controlled by External Warehouse field must be selected on the Warehouses form for warehouse operations that are controlled by an external application.
When the Controlled by External Warehouse field is selected, the warehouse inventory cannot be changed as a result of CloudSuite Industrial processing. Standard CloudSuite Industrial processing is prevented or changed on these forms:
