Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

We are running the cleanup of inventory background job daily, we have this set to 0 days before current date so it will clear everything with an old activity date. The job is running each day as I can see that it is clearing out inventory, however I am left with lines that will not clear. These lines have 0 on hand quantity, 0 in transit, are not frozen and the last activity date is prior to the job being executed.  The transaction history for these parts are also showing as old dates.  Is there anything else that would block these lines from clearing when the cleanup background job is executed? Thanks

Hello, I had a quick question. We are trying to reserve supplier material for a part but we keep running into this error message? Any thoughts? Does this have to do with the inventory availability planning? Thanks.

We have turnkey finished good items that are MS items with MS Demand since they are directly forecasted.  The issue is when these items are purchased, they do not get action messages like MRP items do - MRP Action Proposals.For example - we will order the MS item based off demand.  When the demand changes and the delivery date may need to be advanced, pushed out or if there is no more demand it would need to be canceled, we do not see these messages.We see Early Order, Late Order or Remove order in MRP Action Proposals and would like to see the same messages for MS items.  Maybe there is a different way to set up these items so they are not MS and we can forecast them and see the MRP Action Proposals?  We are in IFS Cloud

We have POCO enforced. We have Released PO lines, that need their Receipt Date to be changed. When we change Planned Receipt Date from the PO line, we get the error asking to change using POCO. However, if we change the Promised Delivery Date or Planned Delivery Date on the PO line, it updates all the relevant date fields including the Planned Receipt Date, without the POCO error. What is happening here?We would expect to change the Planned Receipt Date without a POCO. 25.1.2

When you add a new line to the No Part line, the quantity is defaulted to 1. Weird design choice. Why is this such in core?Yes, I can change this in page designer, but why is this default?25.2.625.1.2

HalloCan somebody help me.We have purchase orders from one site to another (two different companies) and everything is set up for intercompany but if I release a purchase order without having a customer order it does not transfer the order via intercompany. The demand code is “inventory order” and I can not change that. If I start with a customer order everything works perfect. But if I order parts into stock it doesn’t open up an order on the supplier site :-(. Does anybody has an idea what is missing? Thanks for your help.Judith

When creating ‘kitting labels” for shop order that is reserved the only labels that print out are supply type ‘Inventory Order’.  Why will the supply type ‘Project Invenotry’ not print for stockroom to PICK all of the reserved material?  We don’t have this problem in APP9 but soon going to CLOUD 24.2 in few months.   

I am working for a customer that creates a request for quotation for most purchases.  IFS Cloud does not support capturing charges the same as on a purchase order on the order quotation or the purchase requisition. Has anyone experienced this and how did you overcome? ThanksRichard 

Version: Apps10 UPD19 Hello procurement experts!We have a situation where we want to be able to create a blanket PO or similar with one-time approval, with one supplier for just a few select parts, and then request a drawdown against that as when site inventory is consumed or running low.  We are struggling with how to  implement this, even though it seems like it should be straightforward.Initially we looked at creating a PO for e.g. 6 months of supply quantity, with many lines in the PO for the quantity of a min delivery (e.g. qty 16 for 1 pallet to be delivered).  The PO would be approved once, and then each time the total qty at the site fell below a defined threshold the buyers would release one or more lines from that ‘blanket’ PO as needed.  Unfortunately when the PO is approved it seems it always approves all of the PO lines, which makes this a non-viable approach.How else can handle this kind of approach where we need to:‘appro

I cannot see additional fields on a clients environment on the Authorization Routing Template. There should be: This is what I see. Is this an IFS issue or is this permissions?  

The Register Arrivals pages in IFS Cloud can’t be sorted by clicking column headers in 23R1. The page didn’t sort in the previous version we were on. My IT Team submitted a case and were told it is never going to sort?  No plans to make it sort in the future. Searching is great, but when our folks have a packing slip and parts in their hand it’s often faster and easier to sort 100 lines and scroll to what you need. What’s the logic behind this page not sorting so I can understand how we’re supposed to use it?

HiI have created all required handling‑unit related setups in IFS Cloud, including:Handling Unit Categories Handling Unit Types Packing Instruction Part Handling Unit CapacityHowever, when I go to Supplier for Purchase Part, I do not see the Packing Instruction I created in any dropdown or selectable list.Could you please explain why the Packing Instruction is not visible in the Supplier for Purchase Part screen and how it is expected to be used?  Thanks

When approving a Purchase Requistion - can I view if different payment terms have been entered?  I.e checking that someone has updated from 45 days to immediate for specific POs/purchases?

Hi I am facing an issue where as a business policy, procurement team always requires a purchase requisition and authorization is carried out on the purchase requisition level.Issue comes when I am running the Inter company flow.I am using the “Int Purch Direct” and “Int Purch Trans” flows, upon releasing the customer order, pegged purchase order will be created instead of purchase requisition.  Is there a way that I can create a purchase requisition instead of purchase order?I have set up the default supply option as requisition in the Inventory part planning data as well.  But for Purch Order Direct and Purch Order Trans flows, Purcase requisition

Does anyone know of a way to temporarily prevent receipting of POs. We require a period of non-transactions while other processes are being undertaken. We would like to prevent receipting POs during that period.We are using Apps 9, but I guess it will be the same logic as for Apps 10

My customer is using the Self-service Procurement and the Punch out functionality. The customer needs to do some extra stuff when each cart line is created. This is solved by a custom event which is posting a background job, which is running some logic doing the extra stuff.The above works fine when you add parts to the cart from the catalog. Each created cart line, creates a background job by the event. But, when using the Punch out, the background job ending upp in error: “FndUser does not exist”. Looking at the background job you can see that there is no user added inte “Fnd User”-field. To me this means that the session that creates the cart line (from the Punch out), and at the end also creating the background job by the event, is some other user. I don’t know the logic behind the Punch out-integration, but it seems like cart line is created by a “ghost” user, at least not normal Fnd users. Can anyone bring some light over the Punch out-integration and maybe expla

Hi All,I am running a flow on a situation where company A is purching a rental asset from the company B. In that case in the Company A there is a PO in the part lines tab to purchase the asset with the ownership “Company Rental Asset”.Upon releasing and sending the PO. Inter company CO is getting created in the supply site which is Company B in my example.But this Customer order line state the ownership “Company Owned” not “Company Rental Assets”. If the demand is coming from “Company Rental Asset” then the supply should also be in “Company Rental Asset” is it? Seems other line data is coming from the interco PO line but not the ownership. Is there a setting known to anyone to control this be

Those of you who are actively managing subcon work in IFS; have you figured out a way to control the release of PR’s upon release of a shop order? Our subcon PR’s release the moment a Shop order is created, however the subcon portion on a routing may not come up for a week or two. Is there a way to control the release/unrelease of the subcon on the operation no?  I’m guessing it might have something to do with Outside OP Supply Type, but I am not sure you can stop it by changing it. Thanks.

Is there a conference coming for IFS users to participate?

Hello!Does anyone know if there is a change in Cloud from apps9 in the behaviour on Purchase Order Confirmation Reminders? In apps9 the PO is updated on the Order history with date for the sent reminder but in cloud there seems to be a gap where the reminder is sent correctly but it never updates the PO history.Is this correct bahavior from Cloud or a bug? Best RegardsEmma
