Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

Hi, Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have a shop order, 524007, that the outside operation was processed for one supplier, and we found out it had to go to a different supplier.I undid the PO and reverse shipment to the supplier but could not change to the new supplier.I created another outside process line on the PO and deleted the old one, but it will not let me issue the material to the new one.  I could create the PO, 85433, but now cannot close, so I canceled it.So now I have a shop order I cannot close. Thanks, Scott

Does the Supply Chain Part Groups work for Distribution Orders?We are using Distribution Orders for Site to Site supply from a Manufacturing Site to Sales Sites.  We want to ship everything Sea except for Electronic Parts.I have the Supply Chain Matrix for Site set up, and have added an Exception for Electronic Parts.   I added a Supply Chain Part Group to IFS Called “Electronic Parts”.   I added the Supply Chain Part Group to the Inventory Part.   The system is still creating DOs with SEA for the part.   

Hello Experts,I have a requirement of tracking Purchase Analysis for each Handling Unit that were registered during the Register arrivals process. Currently in the Purchase order Control Plan it is only available to select the Lot/Batch number but not the Handling Unit. Would you be able to provide a work around or am I missing something else in the configuration. For a fact I know that in Inventory Control Plan we can select the Handling Unit but that we have to come through a small configuration to the Lot/Batch enumeration view. Thanks in advance.Kind RegardsDulip

Hello All,We are currently implementing IFSCloud (launching soon), though we are a couple versions behind.I am looking for some guidance on how to best control Part Revisions. The Product Structure does not identify a Component Revision, so if any revision of a component part number is available in inventory the structure will allow for its use (regardless of the phase in/out dates).If we created a new revision in inventory parts in order to support placement of a Purchase Order and inventory stocking but we are not ready to start using that revision on a Shop Order, how would we control this? Inventory Part Status would be great, but this is tied to the Inventory Part as a whole and would lock down the active revision as well. (We are not looking to change a Part Number for every minor change).Availability Controls seem to be a reactive step and would require the inventory to be placed on an availability control after it has arrived (relying on the memory of the person receiving the l

  When creating an external customer order for a part of 200 PCS with supply code ‘Purch Order Trans’ it was converted correctly to internal purchase order of qty=2 and UOM=PK100 as factor=100 when define PK100 UOM against base UOM =PCS. Inventory UOM=PK100, Purchase UOM=PK100, sales UOM=PCS but when convert from internal customer order after send into internal customer I found that the quantity =2 with UOM=PCS which it is wrong, quantity has to be 200. what is the reason for it. please advice. we are using IFS10 UPD13Best Regards,Bilal Drayi

On a MS level 1 part IFS seems to be adding in numbers to the consumed forecast column that is then effecting the projected balance of the part and we don’t understand why? The forecast is entered manually into “demand forecast” page therefore previous the week is over written we believe so there shouldn’t be any figures in this column.Is this to do with the promise method? (set to Available to Promise).Forecast Consumption currently set to “drop”.thanks 

We recently made a change to our PO Authorization Rules and we are now struggling because we are unable to receive the orders which were authorized per the old rules because the system errors out at receiving and requires re-authorization per the new rules.  Is there any way to work around this and allow prevent the re-authorization at receiving?

Where is the Part Ownership feature located?  Or is this an additional feature that needs to be purchased?  I cannot find it in Part Catalog, Inventory Part, or Purchase Part setup. https://ifssit.ifmsportal.com.au:58080/ifsdoc/documentation/en/default.htm?openpage=https://ifssit.ifmsportal.com.au:58080/ifsdoc/documentation/en/MaintainInventory/AboutPartOwnership.htm

I cannot manage to reconcile our received not yet invoiced report to the GL.  There are no manual postings and too many lines for individual review.  Does anyone have a reconciliation method that can identify the problem purchase orders?

Hi All, We have a client requirement where buyer wants to return the Purchase order created through purchase requisition by providing the return reason to the requisitioner who created the PR found in case of any discrepancies in Purchase order created from Purchase requisition, then Purchase team (Buyer) should be able to return the Purchase Requisition by adding the comments. This comments to be appear in purchase requisition at header level.So kindly let me know if there are any possible way to return the Purchase order (in Planned status POs) so that Purchase requisition status gets changes to planned status from Closed status or buyer can change the PR status in PR screen by changing it from Closed or Authorized status to Planned status in order to trigger the authorization cycle after making the changes in PR screen.Your suggestion is highly appreciated and thank you. 

Hello everyone,  I don’t find the ‘down payment’ option when creating an invoice from the ‘Stage billing profile’ page (customer order >Lines>Line details>staged billing profile) . Normaly in IFS app we can find this menu, the options I can’t find in IFS Cloud are highlighted: Below the same page in IFS Cloud, where there only ‘create invoice’ option : I don’t understand why there’s no more down payment nor finale invoice in this page. Also what’s the difference between a ‘down payment’ (‘acompte’ in french) and ‘invoice’ (‘facture’ in french ).Thank you in advance for your answers. 

Community, I have below PR authorization rule configured. you can see i have below checkbox highlighted unchecked. below PR is authorized using the above PR rule.but if I using RMB function on PR line,  Update Price Manually, you still can update the PR price to make a change.is this a bug?

I need documents of the supplier scheduling module as explanation how to use and configurations. Standart IFS online documents not so usefull in my opinion about this module.If possible can anyone share to me?Best regards.

Hello all, the IFS Documentation shows this example: What would happen with Planning Method B if there is a demand within the purchase lead time period? For example a customer order reserving 10 inventory units on 26-01-20XY.This would show a Customer Order in Status Reserved for 15 on 26-01-20XY, making the Projected QTY drop from 20 units on 25th to 10 units on the 26th.My understanding for Planning Method B is IFS won’t “see” the future demand of 10 on the 26th and since the Projected Qty is still above the SS (SS=10 in this case), it will not trigger an Order Proposal for a purchase requisition of 16 units (2x 8 lot size) to buy now for arrival on 29.01.20XY. Am I correct?If I am correct, why? I feel this means that if the daily demand for part keeps coming, they are at risk of being out of stock since IFS hasn’t created an order proposal foreseeing that we’ll be below the Order Point in the future. I’m trying to understand in IFS Cloud how to manage inventory taking into account f
