There are 4 fields about shelf life in Iventory Part, tab acquisition. But seems it is not for purchased part.2 And I want to enter part manufacture date & expiring date only for these parts when Register Purchase Order Arrivals. Is it possible?

Supplier Material for Purchase Order Line, How to add supplier's order number

Hello, If we need some exterior operations from our suppliers, we are using Supplier material For Purchase Order Line module to ship and trace the material that our supplier needs. After reserving the necessary parts, we are using “Print Pick List for Purchase Order” which creates a “Delivery Note for supply parts”. This is great to share the information with our supplier, but sometimes our supplier sends us a Purchase Order for the required material. My question is how can I indicate our supplier’s PO number in the delivery note for supply parts ? Thank you for your help.Baran

Non-Inventory Part Register Direct Delivery - Error

Hello, I am working with a client on an issue where they converted from Apps 7.5 to Apps 10. They ship non-inventory material from one location to another. The shipping location is set as an internal supplier. The customer is an internal customer. The Customer site enters orders using sourcing code (Int Pur Dir). When the CO is released, a PO is created. The PO shows source (Int Cust Dir). Everything so far functions properly. I have not seen any issues with the setup of the internal customer or internal supplier. Both have the proper flags. But somewhere the initial setup missed something. Proof of concept. In Apps 7.5 system, they can still run the process listed above and everything works. Several CO’s were migrated into Apps 10. Those can be processed correctly as well. However, new CO’s in Apps10 will not complete properly. It gets stuck in Register Direct Delivery. In Apps 7.5, the Register Direct Delivery screen shows the Purch Qty to Deliver and the Inv Qty to Deliver. In the

PO Lines with Int Cust Dir and inspection

Hello All;I have a client who is utilizing intersite functionality to direct ship material to an external customer on behalf on another site. Everything is flowing normally, except when the PO lines have a receive case of “Receive into Arrival, Inspect at Arrival”. At this point, they do not want to use an alternate receive case.The Direct Delivery is being processed by the intersite flow. The PO lines are updating to “Closed” status but the Receipt Lines are in “To Be inspected”. In order to complete the Register Inspection Results the PO Lines have to be manually reopened. I would not expect the PO Line to close without the Register Inspection Results completed. Is this the expected behavior?The client is on 22R1.8

PO cost updated after receipt

Hi, we had a no-part PO received and then found out the cost was actually lower. The buyer reopened and corrected the PO lines so that the invoice can be matched (invoice has not been entered yet). Finance is asking me-how does the general ledger expense account get corrected to the new amounts?Am I correct that there is no other way to correct the costs on the GL from the purchase transaction ARR-NONINV other than cancelling the receipt and re-doing it?

Purchasing Order Process Type in Cloud

Hello Community; I having a client using Automatic Order Processing in Purchasing. The Process Type is entered on the Purchase Part, however it is not populating onto requisition lines for all suppliers of the part ( manually created reqs for a non-inventory part). Is there a new setting somewhere to “enable for all suppliers” or something? They are currently on Cloud 21R1.8 Thank you!

Procurement authorization rules consistency ....

I recently add an issue working on a case for a big prospect. This prospect already have extensive authorizations rules for purchase requests and purchase orders.1- one of its rule is that the requester is part to all the authorization process from the request to the order.In the Purchase authorization basic data, you can select the requisitioner as authorization type. It works perfectly for un purchase requisition authorization rule … didn’t work at all with a purchase order authorization rule. There is no error message, the line with the requisitioner just didn’t show up!The requisitioner is no more a rule available for the purchase order authorization rules. PURCHASE REQUISITION AUTHORIZATION RULES PURCHASE ORDER AUTHORIZATION RULES For me, the Purchase order authorization rules should have at least the same usage rules than the requisition rules, plus extra criteria that could make sense. We should be in position to run the same rules in the purchase than in the requisition!=>

Safety lead time for non-MRP purchase parts

Hi, On the inventory part planning data page, you can enter a safety lead time. If we put this one on 10 days, MRP will create a purchase requitions with the receipt date: need date of the part -10 days. However, this does not work for directly created orders (DOP generated purchases, CO with supply code Purch Order Trans). There, the “ordered by” date can be adjusted with entering lead times, but the need date remains the real need of the part. The purchase requisition will take that need date as the “wanted receipt date”, so if we don’t adjust this manually on the PO, the part will arrive on the need date. And we would like to built in some buffer. The parts are not inspected at arrival. We would want that, for example, if our DOP creates a purchase requisition for a part, the wanted receipt date is a few days before the need date of the part. Like the safety lead time for MRP.

Component part increasing Part Cost 10

Hi, Let´s say we place orders for a car from a supplier. The total cost for a car is 30 usd, consisting of 10 usd for the hood and 5 usd per wheel. The car is a purchase structure.We place an order for a full car from supplier A, in order for supplier A to build the car we must supply them the wheels. The wheels we purchase from another supplier, supplier B.Now when we place a Purchase order, PO for a car, a customer order, CO is generated for us to supply supplier A with 4 wheels. This seems to be called component parts. When the car is delivered to us we receive an invoice for 10 usd. since we have provided the wheels ourselves. But in inventory transaction history the received value of the car is 30 usd. Now in part cost 10Level 1 has a car with “level unit cost” of 30 usd, and since level 2 consist of 4 wheels x 5 usd, The total cost to next level is 50 usd. The wheels are being calculated double. I don´t know how to best handle this in order for the component parts to only be cal

Quick cost price overview

I am coming from a Microsoft C5 environment - here we have a very quick way to see all purchase transactions on a stock item from various suppliers. So we can “track price” for years easy in an overview. I can get a similar overview in the “Purchase Part” menu - but only in the Supplier agreement section. Now there is a _lot of parts_ with no supplier agreement. So how can I easy browse a parts purcase history and cost price when there is no supplier agreement on the part ? See screen shots below, Thanks,Uffe

Supplier PPAP (Production Part Approval Process)

I am looking for an automated way (without customization) to ensure that PRs/POs are not created when a supplier / supplier for purchase part does NOT have a PPAP document attached to it. Backup solution is a custom field that indicates if a PPAP file type is attached to the supplier or SFPP record and only allow activation if the file is attached. I am hoping there is a simpler solution.
