Users may encounter a receiving issue when processing a purchase order where the system prevents reprinting the ticket and does not allow backing out to PO33 to reprint. When attempting to release the item during receiving, the system displays the error message: “Line one has outstanding buyer message.” This issue typically occurs when a buyer message was entered on the purchase order line and has not yet been acknowledged or released.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, navigate to PO52.1 and release the buyer message associated with the affected line.
Ensure you are working in the correct Company (10) and locate the appropriate Receiver (7273187).
Once the buyer message for Line 1 is released, return to PO30.1 and proceed with receiving and printing as expected.
Zero-loss data migration is quickly moving from an aspiration to an expectation as enterprises modernize mission-critical systems. In an article for The AI Journal, tech writer David Kepler examines why traditional migration approaches continue to fail—and how automation-driven methods are reshaping industry standards. Most data migrations still fail, run over budget, or miss deadlines, largely due to manual processes that introduce human error. As Kepler points out, even a single corrupted record can disrupt operations or trigger costly compliance issues, especially in regulated industries. Accepting some level of data loss may have been common in the past, but it’s no longer viable when enterprise data is this critical. A key example highlighted by the author is the work of Manikanteswara Yasaswi Kurra, who developed an automated, metadata-driven migration approach while handling sensitive healthcare R&D data. By breaking migrations into smaller, verifiable units and layering automated validation before, during, and after transfer, the process achieved zero data loss while cutting approval and processing times by more than 60%.
Beyond migration itself, Kepler emphasizes how automation unlocked broader value. Integrated validation, governance, and reporting reduced duplicate data entry, improved accuracy, and gave leaders real-time visibility across global operations—all while embedding security, auditability, and Zero Trust principles into the process. As Kepler concludes, the move toward zero-loss migration reflects a larger shift in mindset. With the right automation and design, organizations no longer have to trade data integrity for speed or scale. Instead, zero-loss migration is emerging as a practical, repeatable standard for modern enterprise transformation.

Enterprise resource planning (ERP) is undergoing a major shift in 2026, moving from a behind-the-scenes system to a core driver of operational strategy and competitive advantage. According to a recent ERP Today article by senior editor Chris Vavra, this evolution is being fueled by autonomous AI, accelerated software consolidation, and rising ESG and governance demands.
The big takeaway is clear: ERP is no longer just about recordkeeping—it’s becoming a system of action. Organizations that delay adopting autonomous agents risk falling behind, as early adopters are already seeing measurable gains like reduced downtime, better scheduling, and stronger margins. The focus has shifted from whether to use AI-driven agents to how to govern them responsibly, with transparency, auditability, and human oversight built in.
Vendor selection is also changing. In 2026, ERP differentiation won’t hinge on dashboards or analytics, but on governance frameworks—how decisions are logged, explained, overridden, and approved. At the same time, aggressive M&A activity is reshaping the ERP landscape. Mid-market providers are being acquired at a rapid pace, legacy platforms are losing support, and pricing power is concentrating among fewer players. This makes vendor stability and roadmap credibility essential evaluation criteria.
Another critical shift is the rise of ESG data governance. Modern ERP platforms are beginning to treat sustainability data with the same rigor as financial data, enabling traceable, auditable environmental metrics across supply chains as regulations tighten.
Ultimately, the organizations that will succeed in 2026 are those that treat ERP not as a one-time IT upgrade, but as the operating system for managing capital, risk, sustainability, and day-to-day operations in an increasingly autonomous world.
AI (artificial intelligence) is quickly becoming a practical requirement rather than an innovation experiment for manufacturers and supply chain leaders. In his recent article on ERP Today, senior editor Chris Vavra examines why adoption remains uneven—and what ERP and operations leaders must do to close the gap.
Vavra explains that while AI investment is accelerating, many organizations struggle with fragmented data, limited internal expertise, legacy ERP constraints, and unclear business outcomes. These challenges are especially acute in manufacturing environments where variability, traceability, and real-time decisions demand high-quality, well-governed data. As vendors respond with domain-specific AI embedded directly into ERP and supply chain workflows, the question shifts from if AI will matter to how fast leaders can operationalize it.
Vavra highlights three day-to-day changes technology leaders should expect:
Data stewardship becomes central
AI performance depends on clean, trusted operational data. Leaders must formalize data ownership, enforce data hygiene, and continuously monitor model performance across ERP, MES, and supply chain systems.
Cross-functional orchestration becomes routine
AI initiatives now require tight coordination across operations, quality, finance, and IT. Success depends on shared accountability, clear governance, and structured change management—not isolated analytics teams.
Evaluation criteria shift toward operational proof
Executives should favor explainable AI, prebuilt ERP integrations, industry-specific logic, and proven reference architectures over generic platforms. Vertical expertise consistently delivers faster time-to-value.
The takeaway for ERP insiders is clear: AI-enabled ERP is becoming outcome-driven and data-first. Vendors and partners that embed industry-specific AI, strengthen data governance, and reduce adoption friction will define the next phase of manufacturing ERP.

If you are receiving an IPA (Infor Process Automation) Memory Alert of type WU Alloc when an IPA flow runs, and you have made every attempt to optimize your flow, you can increase the alert threshold. Note that this fix will only work for on-premises customers. To increase the alert threshold, you will need to open a Landmark command window and run the following command:
paadm cfgprm update –tenant ALL –dataarea ALL –category Metrics –name “Work Unit Memory Threshold” –type MiB –value <new threshold>
The record will either be created (if this has never been done before), or updated. It should look like the screenshot below.
Cybersecurity is heading into a make-or-break moment as AI reshapes how attacks are created and launched. Scott Harrell, CEO of Infoblox, shares an article on Fast Company arguing that the traditional, reactive security models simply won’t hold up in an AI-first threat environment.
Harrell points to three trends leaders need to understand now:
AI-powered, highly personalized attacks
Attackers are using AI to study individual organizations and craft custom malware, phishing, and deepfake-driven social engineering campaigns. These attacks are often brand new and designed to evade existing tools, making “detect and respond” approaches too slow. Relying on employees as the last line of defense becomes unrealistic at this level of sophistication.
A rapidly expanding attack surface
IoT devices, aging network infrastructure, and AI systems themselves are becoming prime targets. As AI is embedded deeper into enterprise software, compromised models could behave like insider threats with broad access. Security teams will need to protect not just endpoints, but the AI and infrastructure running the business.
Cybercrime-as-a-service goes mainstream
AI is fueling an underground economy where attackers no longer need deep technical skills. Ransomware-as-a-service, exploit kits, and stolen access marketplaces make advanced attacks easier, faster, and more scalable, blurring the line between casual hackers and organized crime.
Harrell’s message is straightforward: simply adding AI to legacy security tools creates a dangerous illusion of safety. To succeed in 2026, organizations must rethink cybersecurity from the ground up—shifting from reactive defenses to preemptive, adaptive strategies built for AI-driven attackers.
User is trying to submit a requisition when clicking Special / Service and getting error:
“Requested delivery date cannot be less than today’s date” even though the requested delivery date was not less than today’s date. See workaround below.
Workaround: If the user enters the Requesting Location and Requested Delivery Date then clicks the Special / Service button (without entering any other info). It creates the requisition. They then can go into it and modify it, adding all additional information. See example screenshot:
NOTE: The above resolution is a workaround, you’ll have to consult with Infor to get this resolved on the application level. Nogalis also offers a team of consultants under a single MSP service plan if this is something you need future support for as we also handle communications through Infor.

CTOs (Chief technology officers) are entering a critical year for technology strategy, with AI, automation, and security shaping the landscape for 2026. Dimitar Dimitrov, founder and Managing Partner at Accedia, shares an article on Forbes that outlines actionable insights for technology leaders looking to turn experimentation into measurable impact.
Key trends include:
Slower developer hiring & upskilling focus – Demand for AI-literate engineers will outpace supply, forcing companies to invest in internal training and hybrid teams rather than rely solely on new hires.
Fixing underperforming AI – CEOs will look to CTOs to stabilize pilots and agents that fail on accuracy or adoption, emphasizing data cleanup, governance, and monitoring outputs.
AI-native platforms & domain-specific models – Smaller, AI-augmented teams can achieve more, but must embed security, compliance, and review. Domain-specific models will outperform general-purpose AI in regulated or high-precision workflows.
Composable AI agents & orchestration – Small, task-focused agents with clear inputs, outputs, and escalation paths will dominate. Orchestrating multiple agents across workflows unlocks substantial efficiency and automation value.
ROI pressure & quantum readiness – Boards demand proof of impact, with some AI budgets expected to slip into 2027 if value isn’t clear. Meanwhile, quantum computing risks require early planning for long-lived, sensitive data.
Dimitrov stresses that 2026 isn’t about chasing every new tool—it’s about disciplined execution. CTOs should prioritize measurable business outcomes, scalable AI orchestration, talent readiness, and long-term security, ensuring AI and automation deliver real, sustainable impact.

Data integrity has quietly become the make-or-break factor for ERP (enterprise resource planning) success. In his ERP Today article, senior editor Chris Vavra explains why reliable, governed data is now central to delivering on ERP’s promises—from automation and AI to real-time reporting and predictive operations.
As organizations expand their data estates, move to the cloud, and pursue AI-driven insights, unreliable data undermines everything from automation to cross-functional reporting. Vavra emphasizes that ERP transformation works best when the underlying data foundation is coherent, accessible, and governed—without relying on expensive ERP rip-and-replace projects. The challenge is especially clear in manufacturing. Despite decades of ERP investment, many shop floors still depend on paper-based processes and siloed systems. This creates the “Hidden Factory,” where manual work, errors, and delays erode profitability. Without real-time, trustworthy metrics like OEE or downtime analysis, teams end up reacting to problems instead of addressing root causes. Vavra highlights how some organizations are solving this by unifying data across systems using semantic layers and virtualization. One steel manufacturer gained real-time reporting, consistent financials, and executive-level visibility—while avoiding months-long integrations and core ERP changes. Cultural alignment and shared ownership of data were just as critical as the technology itself. The article also points to ERP decommissioning as a key integrity strategy. By archiving historical data from legacy systems into modern, managed platforms, organizations can improve governance, reduce costs, and meet compliance requirements.
The takeaway for ERP leaders is clear: data integrity drives efficiency, trust, and ROI—and achieving it requires both disciplined governance and organizational buy-in.
