Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

Hi,My question is around how to marry up the Demand Planner forecast and Product Family forecast at MSL0Now I understand that Demand Planner looks at the history and predicts the forecast.When it comes to S&OP it looks at several criteria for an instance production plan, business opportunity forecast , and generate a plan for the product family which can then be imported to MSL0 which can then be dis-aggregated to MSL1Is there a better way to manage DP forecast and S&OP forecast together ? Kind RegardsYashodha  

Hello All, I have come across an issue where when I am using Moveable Holidays these are only considered to be in the past and not applied as default in the future (therefore forecasted at default value).What I mean is, if Period 52 (set to weeks in DP Server) has been our shutdown and I had generated that in the Moveable Holidays as well as future dates for Period 52, the DP Client checks what was before the holiday period in the past (demand registered) and after and then fills in that gap using it as base for calculation of the forecast for the same period in the future.What shall I do for the DP Client to generate the future period 52 to be projected at 0 as this is our shutdown and we are not accepting demand for period 52 of any year?Would anyone here have an idea what I can do, as I have searched through everything and I cannot find a solution to this. This is to help us with maintaining materials and packaging stocks at right level around t

Hi  I am unable to convert purchase requisition lines to existing RFQ’s when the lines are project connected. Both lines are on the same req or on different reqs. I just get the ‘No Requests Exist’ message.Anybody seen this behaviour before? It seems to work fine when I test using non-project connected lines. This is common practice, to add onto existing RFQ’s which would create new revisions. I tried the ‘Create Part Request Lines’ button within the RFQ itself, which allows me to add directly to the RFQ. Albeit the new line is therefore not project connected. When trying to convert the quote to a PO (1 line prj connected, 1 line not) I get an invalid delivery address specified error.  Any guidance would be appreciated  ThanksJames

Hello,I have a customer who wants to search by "Customer Order" on the "Purchase Orders Lines" screen, but the customer order number is not visible on this screen (it is visible directly on the purchase order). Do you know of another way for them to search by customer order for all related purchase order lines?Also I noticed in the customer order lines screen we have access to the Purchase order no, so I am wondering why we can’t see customer order no on purchase order lines screen. Thank you for your help,Emmanuelle.

Hi, in 23R2 the layout on Report Format and Output window is a bit updated and there is now a toggle under E-mail. I did some testing and an e-mail i sent to the adress in the field regardless if the “Send E-mail”-toggle is activated or not. Is this correct behavior? It is a bit confusing  Thanks! BREmma

Hi CommunityThe goods were borrowed from an outside company on the basis of re-settlement after the goods were received by our company, and is there any mechanism for that in the system? Looking forward to your advice.

I have created an already created customer order from a PO in intercompany purchase scenario. Now i want to create a new CO from the same PO. How do we do this?

Why do some Order lines automatically goto Invoice once Delivered? Order Type ‘PO’ should stop after Print Delivery? Is there some other auto-process that would cause some lines to Invoice but not others? It seems ‘Supply Code’ might? When process the lines with ‘Supply Code’ = ‘Invent Order’ the system stops before Invoicing but lines with ‘Supply Code’=’Int Purch Trans’ will auto invoice once Delivered. We don’t want to auto-invoice the lines.Please point me to a solution, thanks.   

Hi, I have a scenario where we used to use planning method B to handle our stock parts, but now those stock parts sometimes will be purchased for project inventory using the PMRP process. Planning Method B does not get effected by PMRP, so we will have to switch that method. What is the best planning method to use to be able to still handle these stock parts (safety stock, min/max) while still being able to use PMRP to purchase?

Hi ,Demand planner campaigns and  sales campaigns -   Are they linked?  If so how? Otherwise do we just put a campaign ID in manually into DP ? Appreciate if someone can share some insight  Kind RegardsYashodha

In Payment Schedule for Purchase OrderWhen entering a schedule line for Pay Sched Line Type = “Retention” the user enters a Percentage of “10.18” but on leaving the field or saving the record the Percentage is rounded to 1 decimal place meaning that the Percentage is now “10.2” meaning that the Planned Amount is wrongly calculated as as 166,902.5286 instead of 166,575.2687 a difference of 327.25986 Can we amend the decimal places and if yes, where can this be amended.  Many thanks. JohnAPPS 10 UPD 22.

These two functions appear to accomplish very similar things in IFS. Are the only differentiations that one manages at PO header level (other at PO line level) and templating option (vs not)? If so why does Payment Schedule exist and not been deprecated? Curious to hear how others are using one or the other or both at same time.

how should be created PO with 100 lines and with different prices per pcs with 30% payment in advance?for services with 1 line and simple description we use milestones - for that line we add particular milestone with some %;but what about for materials? 30% payment in advance concerns the total amount of the PO; it means 30% concerns each line of 100; so for each line should be added milestones?

Hi,I’m wondering if it is possible in Apps10 Aurena to allow users to select pre-posting values on purchase order no part lines rather than using a pop-up window when the line is saved.Ideally, I’d be able to use the Page Designer to configure LOVs to show as fields on the order line itself, so the user can select the pre-posting values at the same time as entering basic info like description, price, quantity, etc.Please let me know if you have achieved this functionality using Page Designer and how I can set it up.Thank you

The use case scenario is the following:Selling parent part number X and the manufacturing process is instantaneous when delivering the final product. Objective:Upon processing a delivery order, automatically backflush the component inventory without a shop order being processed. The final product would need to remain with the top level sale part numberIn other ERP systems, able to issue the component material directly to the delivery order with the proper configurations. I’ve attempted phantom at the component level but it seems it still requires a shop order to process. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,We get an error when trying to delete an item from the Transport Task line. There is no reservation for the material.

HI Team,Requesting help here.I saw that we can receive shipment orders through generic receipt processes.I want to receive the shipment (created via shipment order) through the Incoming Dispatch Advice process to another site. I am aware that we can receive it through register arrival. Since shipment order used to send material between sites in the same company, I added the DESADV message on the company level and Send dispatch advice automatically toggle also enabled in site level. I can see my shipment sent the dispatch advice and delivery note is also printed. But I am not getting any records created in Incoming Dispatch Advice window. Did anyone of you followed this flow and does it work? Or Am I missing any key data? Thanks,CHamath
