Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

Hi Team, I have a Customer that is replenishing Remote Warehouses with Shipment Orders. IPAP is showing an offsetting Supply and Demand, as shown below.  Ideally, we would like to run MRP and then see a Shop Order/Purchase Order created, but MRP is not creating any supply.  How do you make a Remote WH create Demand on the Site that MRP can see??Notice below, the Shipment Order Demand of “15”, The Available and On Hand Qty is “0”, ideally this would create a Shop Req.  

Hello,I have a problem where my former coworker's name is automatically entered in the Coordinator field when I'm creating procurement orders, and I have to manually change it every time.I've seen multiple references to the "Sites per User" window as a place to fix this, but I can't find that in our IFS environment (IFS app 10).How can I set it up so that my own user is automatically entered as the coordinator when I perform procurement?Thank you in advance!  

Is a setting available that can include planned Purchase Requisitions as expected supply when calculating the ATP in in a customer Order Line? The MRP runs once a week and Purchase requisitions are not all followed up the first day. This results in customer order lines moved to a later date (when the availability check is set on the inventory part) as the purchase requisition dates are not considered.  

Hello all, We have been impacted by the US tariffs, as some of our supply chain is outside the US. I’ve been able to apply % to our Purchased Parts by using the Purchase Charge Type. This has worked well, however I am looking for an easy way to see the impact on the cost of these charges to the part. It appears the the cost of the material does not change when brought into stock with the charges applied. Is there a way in IFS (IFS Apps 10 UPD 22) to view the impact of charges like this to a part? If we’re buying something with a 25% tariff, our cost may be $100 + $25 per unit. However in IFS Cost, it will show as $100. I have looked through the help and on the forums, but have not found a way to view this impact. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hi all In IFS Cloud, edit all feature in multiple line selection help in various screens like bulk supplier update in PR lines, bulk quantity update in start rentals etc [shown like below]  However, I couldn't help wondering that's its not available when we want to update same location for bulk purchase receipts. Why do you think its missing? Do you think its an enhancement / idea for future versions? Thanks,Asela

Running into an error when attempting to use a specific Organization Code and Position on an Authorization Routing Template.As soon as I attempt to release the Purchase Order Authorization Rule, I’m faced with the below error: If I remove the Organization Code and simply enter a “%”, it works, however, that is not the requirement.  The Positions will be shared, but the organizations will be different.For example, a Position may be “Supervisor”, although the organization may be Engineering or Quality.  Items I have already validated:Authorization Limit per Organization Position Employee is connected to Organization and Position Employee is entered also as an Authorizer with adequate authorization amountEnvironment: 24R2 SU2It seems very similar to this previous

How do we handle Milestone based payment in Sub Contracts?

Community,We are on APP10 UPD9. We are trying to undo a customer order partial delivery which is created from supplier material. system prompt below error message. How we could handle this scenario. if we cannot undo delivery, the only we could do is to do RMA. Thank you. 

Hello dear Experts,Could someone please explain the purpose and function of the "Currency" and "Purch UoM" fields on the Requisition to Request - Parameters Assistance Page?When we select multiple purchase requisition lines and convert them to a Request for Order Quotation, each line may have a different currency and unit of measure (UoM). Therefore, we are likely to receive supplier quotations in different currencies for different order quotation lines, which makes the currency specified at the header level seem irrelevant to me.Additionally, the UoM field set on the Parameters Assistance Page does not appear to be passed to the Request for Order Quotation page, as I do not see any UoM at the header level.Could you clarify why these fields exist and how they are intended to function in this process?Note: We use IFS Cloud 23R2 

We have dead parts in the system that is still generating register forecast lines in MS level 1Would anybody be able to help with the settings.  

Hi All,In IFS, we have the standard functionality to email purchase orders (POs) directly to suppliers.However, I am considering a scenario where the supplier’s contact person may be on leave and has an “Out of Office” automatic reply set up in Outlook. Is there a way to handle such automatic replies or bounce-back messages from the IFS mail server side?Anything that we can do from IFS side?Thanks,Chamath

Is it possible to tie an expense sheet credit card transaction to a purchase order/po receipt?

There is a need from the customer for IFS' B2B portal. However, there are the requirements for the following:- How can suppliers confirm an order with differences? Currently i set up the B2B portal but there is only an option to confirm without any differences (happy flow):- Are these differences automatically reflected in the purchase order or can an approval process be set up for the buyer?

Hello,I'm encountering an issue where a user is unable to convert a purchase requisition (PR) line into a purchase order. The system returns the following error:Error:"You are not allowed to modify an Authorized requisition line that affects the previous authorization."The user confirms that no modifications have been made to the PR line.Has anyone come across this issue before? If so, how was it resolved? Any guidance or leads on addressing this error would be greatly appreciated.We are currently using IFS10 Thanks in advance! 

It is mentioned in the IFS product documentation that it’s possible to confirm a purchase order with changes by the supplier via the B2B portal.  However, I do not see the option to do so in the B2B portal. It only has the “Confirm” option and this will confirm without any changes. Version: IFS Cloud 24.2.0 Am I missing something here or is this actually a bug?

I have tried setting up the inventory part and the inventory part planning data with different settings.I can only get two types of orders and status:Purchase Order        Released StatusPurchase Req           Planned StatusIs there any other options?  We would like it to go to a Purchase Order in planned status for review before releasing.

Has anyone come across an issue with mixing Part and No Part lines on the same requisition?  In this instance all three lines are connected to a Project; all three should be authorised by the Project Manager.  The two ‘part’ lines HAVE been authorised but the no part line not yet the Buyer has seemingly been able to covert the no part line to a PO.  We are now stuck with a req looking like it it ‘open’ still yet connected to a PO that is received and matched to a Supplier Invoice.  If I authorise the req line I can’t convert to PO or cancel, the only thing I can do is convert to an RFQ.  Is this a bug does anyone know / think?We’re on 23R1.10.   ThanksLinda

I am seeking possibilities in splitting the QTY into 2 warehouse within the same site Site ABCWarehouse 1Warehouse 2Safety stock for a part is 10, hence when we run MRP the supply is created for 10 but that need be distributed 5 to warehouse 1 and 5 to warehouse 2. Is there any possibility in achieving this.

Hello, Is it possible to modify the activity ID when receiving a PO. Thank you for your help. Christophe.  

Hi expersts,here at customer site (Apps 10) we have an interesting scenario.We want to buy nitric acid within canisters.We are in Supplier/purchase part and in the IFS mask Surcharges:(View: POC = PurchaseOrderCharges)Each canister has 22 kg and the POL is 12 pcs => 264 kg.We have 4 POCs :2 with measure kg and 2 with measure pcs.One e.g. is deposit which comes with pcs One e.g. is toll which comes with kg.We tested the field UnitCharge (True/False Tickbox)​It seems that if we untick the UnitCharge we can change the ChargedQty from 264 to 12.Is there someone else who had the same scenario and can share knowledge?Thank you!BRMichael​​​​​​

Hi All,I would like to request some clarification regarding the behaviour of MRP in this context.As I understand it, MRP does not generate pegged supplies by default. It evaluates demand, and if there is no available stock, IFS creates supply orders that are not pegged to specific demands.Now, let’s consider a scenario where I manually create pegged orders by modifying the supply code (e.g., to Purch Order Trans) at the customer order line level. When the customer order is released, a pegged purchase requisition (PR) is generated as expected. However, after converting this PR into a purchase order (PO) and changing the delivery date, I anticipated that MRP would recognize this adjustment—identifying the order as either early or late in relation to the demand.It appears, however, that when supplies are pegged using supply codes, MRP does not detect these orders in the same way. As a result, it does not flag them as early or late orders during its

Hello, Is there a link between IFS Cloud and the emission tracke for Upstream Scope 3 Pruchased Goods. THank you. Christophe

User A has upload some documents  as attachments to a PO (Procurement-Receipt-Receipt screen) but if someone else (users B and C) try to view it on the same day, they cannot open them. However, the following morning, they can open the attachments to view them. Why could this be please?On premise IFS Apps 10 upd14. 

The Part Ownership is NOT populating on the Purchase Requisition line even though is is defined on the Supplier For Purchase Part Record.As well, when the Purchase Requisition line is converted to a Purchase Order, when the Part Ownership is defined as “Customer Owned”, the value that populates in the Purchase Order line is INCORRECTLY appearing as “Company Owned” …Is this a KNOWN Bug with IFS Cloud, or should it be reported as such?
