There are just some components that give me headaches when I have to deal with them. Please share your similar experiences!

My vote goes to the following:

tdssc0217 - auto create planned deliveries
I can't remember the number of times we've had to customize, troubleshoot, and fix problems

EDI message libraries
I admit that once you learn how they work, they aren't horrible. But when you start out debugging them for the first times, they are a pain in the ***. We've had to customize these numerous times as well.

Finance Transaction components
OK, getting a little carried away here, but I think there's a reason why Baan has so many correction programs for finance. Dimensions, accounts, debits, credits, balances, transaction types, currency, tfacr250/tfacp250.. need I say more? what a pain to debug

I agree about the EDI dll's they can drive you mad ! Not all functionality is supported by the dlls:,
- phantoms (issue components)
- direct delivery
- importing data to custom fields in the sales order.

We have trouble with Commissions,
- Takes too long to calculate
- Reports are poor (had to build our own)
- Lots of steps in the process that don't need to be there

Outbound Data
- Difficult to manage outbound
- Maintain Outbound data is a very hard session to use
- You can't correct a user's error !!

There are a few of my personal choices.
