Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

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.

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

How do I cancel them?The PO is in status Received. When I make a Purchase Order Change Order and RMB > Cancel on a line “It is not possible to change a contractor type purchase order line that has project time or cost reported to it” message appears. So what should I do to reverse the receive status?

An approval routing has been set up for specific purchase orders. The authoriser should review this purchase orders. If an purchase order is not approved, the Authoriser, fills in the reject reason and reject note. This makes it clear why the authorisation does not proceed.However, where can the Coordinator who has to adjust the Purchase Order retrieve the Reject note and Reason. This is necessary to adjust the purchase order.

Hello everyone, On the Self Service Procurement Portal, even if my Person ID is set as a requisitioner, the “requisitioner” field it is not filled in automatically while it is filled in automatically in the purchase requisition when my user is making the purchase requisition.Do you know if it will be arranged in next releases?Thanks in advance, Laura

Hi,Since installing APPS10 UPD18, we observe a special behaviour when entering a No Part Purchase Requisition line:If we forget to enter the tax code, this message appears correctly when saving: Now we enter the tax code manually or choose it from the list of values . . . . . . and jump with the cursor into the field “Tax Code Description” to display the description, the tax code disappears: With APPS10 UPD13 (before installing APPS10 UPD18) it worked correctly: RemarksIf the tax code is entered before saving, it works correctly.However, after the error message appears (“A Tax code is required when supplier tax validation has Transaction Level selected on Company, Tax control tab”), it doesn’t work.The error behavior seems to be related to the output of this error message.I’m aware that the tax code would be drawn automatically if it was stored in the supplier. However, that is currently not the case with all suppliers and it must also work correctly this way.Is there a bugfix for this

Hi There, I have requisition authorization rules set up and working, however once authorized and Req converted to PO, IFS requests authorization on the PO again? I checked the company set-up and “Enforce Order Authorization” is toggled on, so naturally I assumed this was the reason, so I toggled it off. However once toggling this off, my PR’s no longer go through authorization? Any help is appreciated.

Hi There,I have created a Purchase requisition authorization rule and routing templates, and for some reason all my routing steps are not being displayed on the requisition or routed as per the steps.

Rule 2 - Priority 2 >$500k - Min $501k to Maximum amount $10mlRouting Template linked to auth. rule, using auth. groups, all have max auth. limit of $10mlStep 40Step 50 Once the requisition is released only the following steps appear when I need all the steps 10-50 to appear (Screen shot below)Step 30Step 40Step 50
