Hi, I have an issue where a user (coordinator) creates orders that suddenly stopped following the Purchase order prefix starting with “P”. As you see below the user has created orders starting with P but the orders started inheriting the Requisition numbers (179 and 189 below.) .  User is in coordinator group “K” Coordinator groups looks like this where “K” should have prefix “P” för purchase orders. Does it have to do with Purchase roder no 99 in some way?  Thanks! BREmma

As the title says, is it possible to add new lines to an existing PR where all lines are approved…. without revoking the authorisation?A real example, is where we had to add a new freight/delivery cost line to the PR at a later date.This is pretty annoying for our team who need to add a new line to a PR, and get the manager to then authorise previously authorised lines. It raises a lot of questions as to why are we doing this again. 

Hi,We using IFS cloud…...Im looking to check is there a way to restrict that only 1 assigned buyer can raise Purchase Orders for a specific maintenance order or work order ?looking forward to help on this topic  

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 must be zero for serial tracked parts ....How should I mit

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?

i have to add tax code in  order app but iam unable to do that the option is available but checkinn is disable for tax code ,previously we add tax on purchase orderroval window 

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?
