We have a scenario where a  purchasing control plan was not created when a PO was created and received. Since then, a control plan has been created. I’m trying to use the Connect Control Plan function on a purchase order receipt. When I click on the List button in the dialog box to select a new control plan no, there are none listed even though there is currently an active control plan for the part as well as other active control plans for different parts.

 

According to the IFS online documentation, “ This list displays all Control Plans for Purchasing in the Active status for all part numbers, not just the part number in your purchase order.”

 

Do know why there are no control plans listed?

When the PO receipt is created a control plan is connected to the receipt automatically if a valid control plan revision exists. There are quite a few parameters that are evaluated to determine whether this will happen:

The same parameters are evaluated when trying to connect a control plan revision manually to the receipt. If you use “Connect  Control Plan” and no control plan revision can be selected, this means that there is no valid control plan revision that can be connected to the PO receipt.
