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 

Hi All, While Creating a Purchase Requisition (N: Procurement > Requisition > Purchase Requisition), How could I restrict the User from seeing and selecting other Requisitioners names from the List of Values in the REQUISITIONER field? Is this something that can be achieved through basic data change or is a Config or Mod is required?We are on IFS Cloud 22 R1Cheers

Hi Team,do we have a IFS Cloud Demo environment to test/check the supplier assessement?BR Marina

I had this working once and now it has stopped working.  I am not sure what changed between 22R1 and 22R2.  Even trying to run manually does not work.Once a purchase order is authorized, we would like the PO to go to released status.  We had this working with Automatic Order Processing.  Any ideas based on my settings?  One thing I did notice after deleting the job and trying to rebuild it, it is asking for something in the coordinator field.  We have 60 coordinators, so tried using % and it will not accept it. 

We are having an issue suddenly running our monthly import. We get a message when we try importing for an individual item. It says “Import process is conflicting on Site.” The progress info says it was on “Comparing Begin Date with Site Date”. Any ideas one what could be the issue? 

Hi All, What does this error mean and how to fix it? We are trying to create PO from a REQ but receive the following error: Field (TAX_BASE_CURR_AMOUNT) is mandatory for Source Tax Item Purch and requires a value  

Hi All, Our Procurement department has asked us to find out how other companies identify stock that may have certain attributes (in this case certain tariff codes).    My initial thoughts are to make the parts Export Controlled parts or just to use a custom field, but if anyone has any way of achieving the below it would be great to see. “We have been trying to work out if there is any way of separating or placing a form of identification against stock in IFS for certain characteristics.  One of the main ones being so that we can identify materials that we receive that have particular Test Certs and are compliant with certain Tariff regulations  (in other words – materials we could export again compliantly).  It also links to other material management queries, such as ensuring goods bought for one project (end user) don’t get used where they shouldn’t.” Many thanks!

Dear All, I am creating custom field PURCHASE REQUESTION LINE AUTHORIZATION window when i publish it is showing error screenshot is attached.  

Hi,I haven’t been able to figure out if the only way for Suppliers and Customers to access IFS in Apps10 is using the B2B portals. Is there another option? And if we go to the B2B portals, is there a cost associated with it?-Karen

Hi all!  I just discovered that the attachment button is missing since the upgrade to 23R2 in Self-Service Procurement Portal.  The column is not hidden. Are we missign a connection somewhere that need to enable attachment in the portal? This is how it looks in the old version And now in 23R2 In object connections it looks like this  Thanks! BREmma

Can we use Conversion Factor for a Non-Inventory Purchase Part? We have a contract supplier for which we create a shop order for the finished good inventory Part and create a purchase requisition/purchase order (non-inventory part for labor to pay the supplier) against it. When receiving the PO, we will receive the labor first and then receive the shop order for the finished good. Our non-inventory part is set to ‘kgs’ and finished good inventory part is set to ‘eaches’. IFS does not allow us to set the conversion factor on the non-inventory purchase part. When we receive the shop order for 10, it is received into the inventory as 10, but we’d like it to be converted according to the conversion factor How can we handle the situation to receive the PO/shop order with a conversion factor?

I am trying to create a Custom Field to pull the destination warehouse from Purchase Order Lines into Incoming Dispatch Advice but I keep getting this:So far I have create this and not sure what is incorrect and wondered if someone could help?  

IFS Cloud User.How can you tell if a Purchase Requisition is generated from a Work Order associated with a functional object?

Is it possible to consolidate pricing for similar parts on a purchase order? For example, if I’m ordering 500 each of a red, blue and white widget for a total of 1500 widgets, the supplier will extend the 1500 piece price. How do I get the 1500 piece price to show up on the PO when I’m order 500 of 3 different part numbers.  

Hi,The status is stopped in Incoming Customer Order. “ORA-20110: ExternalCustomerOrder.CUST_ORD_FOUND: Siparis *3011966 Oluşturuldu.” 

Hello!I found this check box on the shop order “Include as Supply” and based off the help screen, it sounds like if the box is deselected, the only thing that changes is that MRP doesn’t recognize it as supply for the demand.  Is that it?  Once the shop order is completed, closed, received into inventory, can we then use that part against demand? Wondering if this is a good option for PPAP parts that clutter my MRP action proposals (i.e. telling me I’m making it too early or to remove it).Thanks in advance!!

We have the following requirement. Discussed with several experts and finally posting here since we didn’t come across a solution that covers this 100%. Maybe the experts in the following forum can direct me in the right direction. We release a Purchase Order to our caterer 12 months prior with a approved value. The total value of the services are not going to exceed this original amount. However the caterer provides services at an agreed rate and the total amounts for each month may vary significantly. We need to settle the monthly invoices then and there! The variance is such that a previously agreed supply schedule cannot be accomodated. Ideally the payments should be authorized when the supplier sends the invoices. We have explored the following possibilities We explored the blanked PO option. But probably a PO line with partial receipts might be the best option. Wanted to understand what the others maybe using for a similar requirement. Thanks! We are in IFS9 and hope to go to 23R

 Hello, I started working as a module consultant in the IFS Digital transformation project. Can you help with screenshots and documentation of the purchasing module in IFSCloud?

How can I define the date of payment for payment schedule to purchase order?thery is the field “due date” but it cannot be editedIf you register a purchase order with an advance payment plan (you will not pay one advance payment at once), such a solution seems necessary 

Hello,I want to understand what are qty in WIP, Consumption from current available stock and future purchase requirement by a BOM/Product Structure.We have two sets of parts,One which are unique to a product structure. Shared parts across different product structures.Because we operate as MRP, I am struggling to calculate the Estimated to Complete cost majorly because of the WIP where for example there are 10 Shop Orders, and 8 of them have started, now the current stock in IPIS won’t reserve the stock for 2 remaining Shop Orders and therefore, the IPIS qty is not correct. Is there a better solution to calculate an ETC cost for a project in IFS APP10

Where can I export a list of Supplier names and their payment terms?
