DearsAt present, in case there is  the same item with different quantities and delivery dates,  IFS creates the PO with 1 Line_No and n Release_No, like this PO = 890123  -  Line_No = 1 - Release_No = 1 - Part_No=ITEM_A - Quantity  = 1000 - Delivery date = 15.09.2024Line_No = 1 - Release_No = 2 - Part_No=ITEM_A - Quantity  = 1500 - Delivery date = 15.10.2024Line_No = 1 - Release_No = 3 - Part_No=ITEM_A - Quantity  = 1700 - Delivery date = 15.11.2024 We’d like to have only Line_No increasing like 1, 2, 3 … and Release_No to stay at 1 , like this Line_No = 1 - Release_No = 1 - Part_No=ITEM_A - Quantity  = 1000 - Delivery date = 15.09.2024Line_No = 2 - Release_No = 1 - Part_No=ITEM_A - Quantity  = 1500 - Delivery date = 15.10.2024Line_No = 3 - Release_No = 1 - Part_No=ITEM_A - Quantity  = 1700 - Delivery date = 15.11.2024 But for 1 supplier only  Is it possible to have it without any manual change and when creating the PO from Purchase requisition Lines window ?If YES, what do we have to

I have a normal PO with no associated Shipment, 4 No Part Order Lines - overall single occur Delivery Address, ONE of the lines uses the default delivery address.  Change Order created to change the price, description, and wanted delivery date on 3 of the lines and a new line is added using same single occur address.This PO was copied from another PO with pretty much the same information.When attempting to Update the PO, the ORA-20110 error appears. I don’t see ANY field in Supplier or PO called Delivery Type.  WHAT AM I MISSING HERE??

How to full fill the arrival date  automatically???  

Is there any options in the market for Customs Duties and Tariffs related to a US Project?  Similar to the way you have the external applications for Sales Tax if you are implementing in the US?

I have open work tasks that will not allow me to “finish” them. The error reads, qty must be greater than zero. When I look at the material tab, it shows lines with a zero qty but will not allow me to close or alter them. Has anyone had this error before and if so, how did you fix it?

Has anyone come across the below error ?The Authorization routing template does not contain steps with enough authorization limit to cover the purchase amount on the PO.    

I have several layout in use for report id = PURCHASE_ORDER_PRINT_REP.  I have one of my companies stating that the layout looks very different for them vs most of the other companies.  How can I best determine what layout is ‘chosen’ when the user/company generates the purchase order.We are not currently using report rules for this report. 

Hi All, Is it possible to add multiple Project IDs to different PO lines through Project connections?Currently, system is not allowing to add different Project ID to different PO lines.We have to raise a separate PO for each Project ID connected PO lines.Getting the below error while trying to add the multiple project Id.So kindly suggest. Thanks in advance. 

Just curious how you would implement the following case.Customer purchases non-inventory sales parts for both internal as well as external purposes. Let's say monitors. On a purchase part for a monitor we are able to enter a purchase group. This purchase group would trigger the correct cost account using the posting controls.What if we would know the destination of the monitor upfront. So during the entry of the purchase order we know that the monitor will be used internally. The cost would be put against the internal cost account for the IT department. However the next time we enter a purchase order line for the same part (monitor), but we know that it will be sold directly to an end customer. Costing account should be a different one (cost of sales).I can't think of a standard solution in IFS23 and up.Do you have a tip (or a solution) how to implement this?

Hi all, The case as follows.A company is using Purchase Charges for:Duty TransportThose are connected to Purchase Order Line (material). Inventory valuation method for inventory purchase parts is Weighted Average, Cost Per Lot Batch + Transaction Based.So, the value for ARRIVAL transaction is calculated as: material price 1000 + duty 100 + transport 50 = 1150. This is fine.But from inventory part unit cost perspective they can only see total / accumulated value, always expressed as one single row having Cost Bucket ID - e.g. 110 or MAT (material cost)  = 1150. Is there any method to see inventory unit cost with “charges” precision as different cost buckets? They would like to know that under this total value 1150 there is 100 of duty and 50 of transport.Any ideas appreciated. PS. Already tried:Cost Source → there is no cost source type = charge RMB “Modify cost” by INVREVAL → not sure if that works with invoice matching having +/- differences, supplier correction invoices Best Regards,

Hi,We would like to give an employee 2 positions so we can give 2 limits of purchase authorisation for one person using limit per organisation position.We would then have 2 purchase rules according to the coordinator.So dependant on the type of order, we would select the coordinator to call the right limit for that purchase authorizer.Is that possible or an employee can only have one position for purchase authorisation?Thanks ans Regards,Anne-Sophie

How to disable the 'Reprint Modified' option (Customer Invoice)? I've enabled the Debugger window and then disconnected _API, but still can't disable it.The problem is that if the user selects this option, then the new document appears in the 'Report Archive' (even though there has been no change to the invoice or customer). This causes a new document to be created in the database which has resource implications. 

Hi, I have a requirement in the US where my supplier is registered under one name that is shown on the W9, but the invoice received is for anther name.I think I can solve this by using a new supplier for the alternative name and having that as the invoicing supplier where required. However I wanted to know if there was a more elegant solution that is commonplace in the US market for this scenario?Platform is Cloud 23R2

I’m getting following error when un issue materials.“The sum of un issue quantity, qty scrapped and open MRB qty is grater than the issue qty” 

We use the Scheduled Database Task 'Automatic Receipt Dispatch Advise' to automatically receive incoming Dispatch Advises.Since Friday, we have been getting the error in the background job “The Inventory Part In Stock object does not exist. ORA-20111: InventoryPartInStock.NOTEXIST2”200+ lines are stuck with this error. How can we identify the part causing this error? 

 One of the customers are requesting a demo with Notify Me for PR authorization but, i'm only seeing notify me allowing authorization of the whole PR at once. Not line wise authorization like in IFS.Same with rejecting, it will reject the first line always, and then again reject the second line. There is no option as such to select which line to reject?Is this the intended behavior or am i missing anything?Thank you in advance

While trying to save the PR information, we are getting the error below. any idea on what could be the reason behind ?

Hello IFS users,IFS10 APP i have a cases where few POs were created for inventory parts with price 0, GR done, however i cannot see them in Received not yet invoiced report.  the reason for the POs creation is to give entry to these inventory parts within inventory count. thanks

Hi, Is there a way to receipt a PO by amount? We have a large number of blanket service PO’s, and the individual invoice amount varies each month. For example we want to be able to receipt £5,468.74 off a £100,000 PO.We are using IFS Cloud. Thanks,Erkan 

Dear Community, Environment We have a weighted average part setup like below. Then, we have created a PO for this part and let’s say the supplier of the PO is “A”.Now, after register arrival we are creating the manual supplier Invoice (with a different amount compared to PO’s amount) for this PO but to a different Supplier “B”.Question is will there be a problem in the cost revaluation of the stocks now since the PO’s supplier is different to the Invoice’s supplier ? Thank you,

When a Purchasing Agent is attempting to confirm with differences (without a PO Change Order), they are experiencing the below error message when attempting to confirm a Promised Date change. I have recreated this error message in a non Production environment. The PO is in Released status and has been authorized by the appropriate Authroizer. I certainly would understand if “Confirm with differences” impacted the value of the PO that this error message would appear, but don’t understand why a change in date will cause this to occur. I have done some searching on the Site and Company settings and don’t see settings that would allow Confirming differences at a granular level. We are currently utilizing Cloud 22R2If there is a setting that I’m missing, any guidance provided would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
