Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

I am responsible for training my Purchasing Dept in IFS Cloud.  I have shown them how to create PRs, RFQ, POs, how the flow works from one into the other.  I know that we can look at MRP Action Proposals and MRP Action Prop. Workbench.  I understand the Top Down and Bottom Up part info.  But what I cannot wrap my head around is what to tell them to do when they first start their day.  Should a buyer just use the Operational Buyer lobby and respond to messages there?  Should a buyer look at MRP messages and act from there?  I have really had no understanding of a clear path of what to do first.

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

I was wondering if someone is able to offer an insight into the expected behaviour regarding ‘Reserving’ Items on a Work Order. Scenario:Prepare Work Order - Create Requisition - Convert to a Purchase Order - Receipt Item into Remote WarehouseAt that point I would have expected the Receipted Item to show as reserved against the Work Order it was ordered against.However, it appears that in some instances this is not the case and the item appears in the Remote Location with no reservation.Issue: This then results in items showing as available in the a location incorrectly, and increases our ‘stock’ value. This value should show against ‘Reserved Inventory Stock’. Is there an issue in our process preventing the reservation OR is this expected behaviour? Thanks in advance to any one who takes the time to respond. Lisa :-)

I am trying to receive parts from a PO and I am getting the error message "There are not enough component parts shipped to the supplier to receive this quantity.I could see all the component parts of the particular line has been shipped to the supplier using supplier material functionality. The customer is using Project deliverables to create all the required supply request & the Component parts (2 parts ) for the line item are flowing from the Product item structure.Had also tried this work around given below Check the PO Line you are about to receive.RMB on the Supplier material (if the option is active and available)One of the components which has fractional quantity per assembly probably has Qty Calc rounding of 0 in inventory part.Change the Qty calc rounding and receive the PO LineStill the issue persists , when I am trying to change the qty calc rounding to 1 for example , I am getting an error that Qty calc rounding

Hey, I am facing the below issue, how to solve this The net amount of the purchase order cannot be less than the sum of approved/invoiced stage payment amounts.

Is it possible to restrict the Purchase Order screen to an individuals PO’s or to predefined teams/groups PO’s?Currently the whole company has Read Only access to that projection, as we want them to see stuff they’ve previously raised/approved etc, but not everyone else's PO’s. Is this possible in IFS Cloud?

Does the functionality exist that would allow us to remove all DOP netted demand against part numbers?  We are about to undertake our stock take and always experience a problem where we are unable to adjust the inventory quantity if there are reservation quantities greater than the counted quantity.  I want to be able to remove all DOP netted demand prior to us counting.

The same product is added to multiple lines in the same purchase order. When the relevant products are received, the purchasing control analysis opens more than one receiving record for the same order and the same material. I want to do single-entry quality control for the same order, same material but different lines. How can I resolve this situation?

Hi everybody, when a user wants to re-print a customer invoice was originally ordered by another user. He receives the following error "the invoice has been printed by another user. He doesn't have access to this report (key report 9799)". I read two post on the community that said it’s a bug, is it true ? https://community.ifs.com/framework-experience-infrastructure-cloud-integration-dev-tools-50/re-print-original-from-archive-5034 or https://community.ifs.com/framework-and-experience-101/error-the-invoice-has-been-printed-by-another-user-you-do-not-have-access-to-this-report-6200.If you have a solution, I take.

Hi,I hope you're doing well.I'm working on creating a custom event in IFS9 to send an email notification when a purchase order is received.I'm using PL/SQL code for this, but I've encountered a challenge. Currently, the system sends an email for each line item, while the user would prefer a single email for the entire order and receipt. I'm having some difficulty with this because, even though I can include all the received lines in the email, it still sends multiple emails, matching the number of lines received.I'm working with the LU: PurchaseReceipt and the table: PURCHASE_RECEIPT_TAB.If you have any suggestions or guidance on how to approach this, I would greatly appreciate it.Thank you in advance for your help!

Dear community,  Using the same instance of IFS, with multi company, multi site, we have a scenario where SITEA buys parts from a supplier via SITEB (different companies). The supplier delivers the parts direct to SITEA, however SITEB processes the supplier invoice.  I have used EDI/MHS and Purch Order Direct supply code to automate most of the processes however I cannot see how I can do the purchase order receipt at SITEA, which then registers the Direct Delivery in SiteB so that the customer order can be closed and the supplier invoice matched. From the help i see that typically the Supplier would provide the direct delivery EDI to SITEB. I thought i could use the Receiving Advice EDI/MHS from SITEA to SITEB however this requires the customer order lines been delivered to match the receiving advice. Since it is Purch Order Direct there is no delivery of the customer order line.  I’ve attached a diagram of the flow to try and explain the above graphicall

Hi,By mistake, User has manually entered “Qty to inspect” = 1 on Purchase Order Receipt for PO that comes from direct delivery flow (goods delivered directly from manufacturing site to external customer). There should not be any inspection here as the goods never existed in demand site.However, it was possible to save “Qty to Inspect” = 1, and now it is impossible to revert “Qty to Inpect” to 0 due to error:The same error when trying to Approve Inspection Results.Does anyone knows how to workaround? IFS9. Regards, Lukasz

Hellohow can this problem solved ? 

What is the difference between “Purchase Requisition Line Authorization” screen and “Purchase Order Authorization” screen in IFS Cloud?

Is there a Purchase Order Change Order Authorization screen available in IFS Cloud similar to Purchase Requisition Lines and Purchase Order Authorization screens? Need to determine authorizer/final approver and dollar amount of net change for a purchase order change order.

Hello all, hoping to get some insight here on Stage Payments. Is there a reason why Purchase Payment Type cannot be “Staged” when the Inventory Part on the External Service Order line is set to Exclude Service Cost? Has anyone experienced this before and have a workaround to get this?
