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. I’m at a loss for what I may have missed.

Rule general tab. Auth. Rule 1 - Priority 1 <$500k - Maximum amount $500kRouting template linked to auth. Rule 1, using project roles, all with auth. limit of $500kStep 10 Step 20 Step 30 Auth. 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

Is there an IFS process flow for rework purchase orders after purchase order is received..

We would like to know if anyone uses any additional software to enhance IFS capabilities to track inbound shipments.  The majority of our Distribution part of the business is 90%+ international.  Many of our purchase orders consist of 20-50 lines that may ship multiple dates and methods, some may even need to change to a direct ship to the customer. We are looking to improve the following:The ability to have a PO “Planned and/or Confirmed SHIP date” for tracking our inbound offshore shipments. We realize there is a Incoming Dispatch Advice for po ship dates, tracking details and ship vias, but we want to be able to see all the information in one place on the PO. We need better visibility of what is in transit. Splitting lines: A very large portion of the shipments end up shipping partial and we want a better method to split the shipments.  Update dates in mass: we need to update a mass amount of po lines which consists of multiple lines across multiple purchase orders that are ocean fr

Hi,What exactly does Offset from Normal Time Span do in the Automatic Order Processing process?If we set up a Order Process type to only release Req’s and set an offset to 10, does this mean it will only release Req’s where the Latest Order Date is within 10 days?Not sure what date the offset uses and could not find in the help.Thanks!

Select Requisition to Order in the Operations menu. The Requisition to Order Parameters dialog box opens. Select the Centralize Purchase check box. The Site field will be enabled. (How to default to Centralized Site?) In the Site list, select the site that will perform the purchasing for the demand. You can choose any site to which you have access. A new fetch of the qualified purchase orders will be presented in the lower pane of the window.

Good Afternoon,Is there a way of generating a report to show all Purchase Requisition lines against a specific customer? Any advice much appreciated. Thank you.

Community, does anyone know how to close/cancel PO in batch? Thank you.

Hello,  When we use IPR we can check calculation details with simulation file.Into this file there is  a column “Order day”  : States Yes if a order can be placed on that day othervice No.So it look like IPR and or MRP can take it into account to schedule orders, but how or where can we configure this data in IFS?    Regards

What’s the sigficance of IFS letting you manually enter this value? I mean, it automatically gets filled when the following conditions are fullfilled. The receipt status is Received All invoices that are matched to the receipt are posted. The complete arrived quantity has been invoiced or returned.This is fine. But my problem is this: Sometimes my user, immediately after a receipt, manually enteres a value in this field in order to complete the project activity. He dosen’t mind about invoice matching or anything about the received lines. I am wondering why IFS lets you manually enter a value even when Invoiced qty =0, given the situation I experienced? 

Hi,in the manual supplier invoice screen we need a way the match to be with summarized PO receipt lines because currently a lot of GL entries are created as per received serials or lots. I mean summarized per purchase order receipt and per purchase group without changing anything in financial mapping and not for every line.thank you

Demand Planner Client allows multiple flows creation to reflect sales history and forecast per customer group. we have a combine flow for the site. Demand Plan Server window in IFS only allows x 1 Master flow and when switching customer flows from Base to Master it deletes all forecasts in Base flow in DPC.Is there a solution to save Combined flow and then save Base flows to be exported without deleting all DPC forecasts? 

Can someone explain how we can remove an excess Inventory Reservation of a Part that is Stuck in a ‘Shipment’ Type Location? I’ve seen a lot of ASC Customers facing this problem of having potentially ‘Stuck’ inventory in  ‘Shipment’ Type Locations due to various reasons (in Most Cases, we don’t know how they end up having such unusable Stuck Inventory Reservation). For example,  They have an ‘Invoiced/Closed’ Customer Order Line, with a None Zero ‘Reserved Qty’ value. When you look at the Inventory side Reservation, Part is currently in a ‘Shipment’ Type Location. If the Location type is ‘Picking’ we could simply Unreserve the Stock through a Data Repair (Because it becomes Available stock as soon as the Unwanted reservation is Removed), but for a ‘Shipment’ Type Location, you can’t have ‘Unreserved’ stock. I would like to know whether any of you came across this issue in past, if so how you managed to get over this situation?

Hello, Can somebody help me resolving the below error message when creating an “external servie order”?Thank you in advance.Kind regards,Jouri
