We are working with IFS Applications 10 and we need to allow certain users to modify the Purchase Lead Time of parts, but currently the field is read-only for them.

Context

  • Version: IFS Applications 10.

  • Module: Purchasing / Inventory 

  • Users: Planners / buyers who maintain item data.

Current behavior

  • Only users with high-level/administrative permission sets can change the Purchase Lead Time field on the part record.

  • For normal users, the same field appears as read-only.

What we want to achieve

  • Give specific users (or a permission set) the ability to edit Purchase Lead Time.

  • Avoid granting them broader admin rights that are not necessary.

    Questions

  • Which permission object / LU / projection controls the Purchase Lead Time field in IFS10?

  • How should we configure a permission set so that users can edit this field only, without giving them unnecessary access elsewhere?

  • If possible, could you provide a step-by-step example (e.g. which permission set to clone, which objects to add) or any best practices for handling this in IFS10?
