How to cancel a PO connected to a Work Order?

Hi allFrom the requisition tab of a work order, a purchase requisition was made and a PO was created and released resulting in a “close” status of the requisition on the WO tab.Now, I want to cancel the PO again, but I get the message that there are peggings connected to the PO line and I have to remove the pegging first. Problem is, I cannot do anything from the WO screen to remove the pegging, so I’m stuck.How can I solve this? thanksKurt

Inventory turnover figure to purchase requisition line?

I was wondering whether somebody has good tips on how to provide our buyers with Inventory turnover figure to purchase requisition line to help them sanity check the future PO line and planning data in general. I’ve been looking at API’s and available views but a good candidate for the information source has not popped up… This information would be really helpful for reducing the inventory levels in long term. Thanks

IFS Purchase Req Consolidation

Hello community! Our company is experiencing an issue and we are looking for some help from the team. When we run MRP, our purchase requisitions are being created with wanted delivery dates short of lead time if there is already a confirmed purchase req in existance that has not been received yet. IFS is assuming that we can simply consolidate these POs, even though the new demand does not give enough lead time. Is there a setting that will allow all new purchase reqs to create at lead time regardless of other open purchase reqs existing? EXAMPLE BELOWToday is 6/3Part has a 40 day lead time.There is a purchase req already existing that was created on 5/19 that is due 6/28New demand is introduced, mrp runs, and a new purchase req is created today (6/3) with a wanted delivery date of 6/28 instead of 7/13 (40 day lead time)IFS is assuming that I can consolidate the POs, however, I am now only giving 25 days lead time for the new demand. Is there a setting that is turned on that is causing

Creator of Transport Task

Is there a way to capture who created the transport task? Currently we have some struggles where the user processing the transport task may have questions or such. At this time we have not been able to find any fields that are storing the requestor/creator.

Customer order - delivery for returned quantity

A customer order exists with one order line for 100pcs connected to a project activity, and full Qty was delivered to the customer. Later, customer returned 20pcs due to some issue (wrong batch etc), and company created a RMA and received them back to stock. If the company wants to deliver another 20pcs, they cannot use the same order line, instead have to create a new order line for 20 pcs, connect this to the same project activity and process and deliver. Is there anyway that first order line be used to deliver the remaining quantity?Thanks for your support.

Scheduling Direction & Earliest Start Date - IFS9

I have two questions in regards to scheduling direction:How/where do you set the default for the scheduling direction on a shop order - ours currently defaults to BACKWARDS? Can the Earliest Start Date be defaulted?  Currently we experience the earliest start date always being the day the shop order is created.  We want to have this be the Need Date minus the cycle time from the routing. Thanks!

Inventory Value by Asset Class

Is there a place in IFS EE where the Asset class is stored with the Inventory Value?  We use the inventory value by period to report our total inventory levels, but we would like it by Asset Class.  There are views in IFS that has the information, but the views seem to capture the data when the view is displayed hence the asset class displaying with the historical inventory value is the current asset class, not the asset class when the historical data was taken.

Hi Everyone,User who has permission to access only one company can create a deals per part record where “base price site” is not included under assigned company. Based on the user permission, should this be not allowed? Please explain.

Print checks in check stock order (vs ordered by check value)

Does IFS have a setting to articulate the order in which checks print?  When we print a payment batch, the physical check numbers are assigned in order of check amount.  We’re hoping to update a setting to instead be Supplier #.  Thanks!

From Company owned to Customer Owned inventory

Hi, In IFS10, it’s easy to change the ownership from customer owned to company owned.However, the other way around is not. I want to change the ownership of an inventory part from Company Owned to Customer owned. Does anyone have a good process for this? I can imagine we first make a CO to sell it and then a PO to bring it in as customer owned, but that seems a lot of work?

Purchase Price Hierarchy

Can someone educate me of the hierarchy where the Price on the PO line is fetched? Say, when we have an active Supplier Agreement, a Blanket PO, Supplier for Purchase Part record, etc. Not sure what are the other price fetching windows are, but let’s say all are active.  Also if you have an F1 Documentation link to explain further about the above hierarchy, please send that too. Thanks.

Consolidating Shipments for 2 sites.

It doesn't appear we can easily combine shipments from two sites into one.  Consolidated shipments appear to only look at a single site and it won't let me assign a shipment from one site into a shipment in another site.  Does anyone know of a workaround? Thanks

Ideally, we would like to implement this as a metric having a percentage of actioned lines from the universe of message proposed.
