Slow system or no defence from accidental interruption?

Hello list, we came across the following problem.

When entering receipt (Procurement) of, say, 50 lines, JDE needs about 4-5
minutes in order to perform this operation and update all the files. After
pressing OK button at Enter Receipt - Purchase Order Receipts screen, the
system turns back to Enter Receipt - Work With Purchase Orders to Receive
screen. During these minutes the user just sees the screen, that doesn't
show any sign of life. Thinking that computer is hanging, they press Select
button, enter the Enter Receipt - Purchase Order Receipts screen and perform
receipts again by pressing OK button, while the program performs the first
receipt. So program creates double or triple receipts: for each line in
purchase orders - 2 or 3 receipt lines. Respectively the quantities, costs
e.t.c. are doubled or tripled. Then it is possible to match voucher to the
fiction receipts and to process further.

I presume that there are two possible reasons for the mentioned above
problems. First, the system works ultimately slow. Second, the system
doesn't disable buttons on the user interface in order to defend the program
from being interrupted during the processing.

Does anyone has idea how to improve the situation?

We had that exact problem when receiving several hundred lines. Since we
were importing data, we changed our process and loaded it in another way. Do
you also get the message threaded business function still processing when you
try and log out?

We did speed it up a bit by mapping the receipt function to the server
instead of locally. I know there were several related programs that had to
be mapped as well so you might want to get the info from JDE.

You may have already cleaned this up, but we also doubled our entries to
inventory and the G/L. It took quite a while to get our received not
vouchered integrity and inventory integrity worked out.

Good luck.

Braseejde,

thanks a lot for your info.

Could you just advise how do you map receipt function to server instead of
locally. Any reference to useful sites also will be highly appreciated.

Thank you inadvance,

I have OVERCOME the very same problem. (if you can live with speed)

In the processing option of the receipt program P4312, turn on the option
to print the Receipt Traveler Document (#7 on the Process Tab)
This forces the system to update all the records BEFORE the user can click
OK to submit the Print Traveler Document.

In other words turning on this option won't allow the user to return to the
inquiry screen until all the update have been completed and the print job
submitted.

If you try to re-receive the same PO Line you'll notice that the lines are
gone.

This in no way increases the speed but it does ensure the inventory
integrity.
