The Purchase Order Should be Authorized to be RELEASED or CONFIRMED

In the demo Apps 10 system logged in as IFSAPP, I am getting the following information message on trying to release a purchase order that has been created directly without use of a purchase requisition. After clicking on OK, the purchase order is not released, remains in status Planned and the Authorization Required box in the header is checked.There is an Authorization rule on the purchase order (PO_RULE) and on checking that rule the amount on the purchase order is within the release amountWhat are the possible causes for the purchase order not being released and how can this be resolved?

Ship Via and Delivery Terms from Customer Order to PO

We have customer order lines that are Purchase Order Direct and when tied to a PO, sometimes the ship via and delivery terms show correctly on the PO lines and sometimes they don’t. Our users then have to manually update each line. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, have you solved the issue? We are on Apps10 UPD8.

Planning methods

Is there a guide/tutorial on the various planning methods?  Specifically, using MS1 with appropriate time fences for purchased finished goods, with lead times, minimum/multiple lot sized and variable demands.  Looking to target purchases to the demand plan / forecast (highly variable and seasonal).  The current problem: planning method “A” generates purchase requisitions, but will revert to MS supply lines only if any of the lot sizes are set to any non-zero quantity?  Currently IFSAPP8, upgrading to 9 soon.

Monthly consumption

Hello! do you know if there is a function or menu in which it is possible to see the past consumption split by month of an inventory part  and/or if somewhere it is displayed the average monthly consumption based on a selected period. In alternative, how to create a report  to calculate what I asked? I’m going  to work with IFS10. Thanks

Material Quantity Issued doesn't = Quantity Required after PO is received, Why?

I am working in Work Order and have noticed that if I create a Purchase Requisition for an Inventory item the quantity issued after the po is received isn’t the quantity required.  Eg. Add Part number to Requisition tab of Work Order.  Quantity required = 25, quantity on hand = 4/ Material line is created for 25.On Requisitions tab, RMB and select ‘Requisition to Order”PO is created, approved and releasedRegister arrival = 25A few minutes later, on the Material tab, the Quantity Issued changes to 5 even thought the Quantity on Hand = 24. There are 20 reserved, but I will have to manually issue the 20 in order for my Material Req line to show Quantity Issued = 25.

Purchase Order Authorisation Steps

HiCan you advise of the best ‘authorisation routing option’ when you want to have multiple persons authorising a PO?  Should this be set to ‘Include All Steps and Consider Limits’ For example, for a PO raised between £200k and £250k, I need to have 5 authorisations as follows.  All authorisers have various limits set up.  Can someone confirm that this will work in this order? Thanks

Hello Community, Its my first time using the FND_Stream_API and I want to set up an event action that sends a stream message to the creator(a specific user) of Shop Order, everytime someone changes a particular date variable. All I know is that FND Stream API is the way to do it, but can someone please educate me the syntactical stuff so that I can build the script.

NCR Object Connections

I’ve created an object connection for PurchaseReceipt that allows me to to manually link a PO Receipt to an NCR that I created using the NCR wizard.   Is this the correct process flow? Register Inspection Results, then Create the NCR, and then link the 2 together?     Thanks, Chris.

Inventory Counting Question

Hi All, I would like to know, is there any impact on 'reserved’ stocks while doing stock counting, i.e. do we need to un-reserve all materials pegged with orders (CO, SO,... etc) or not ? -Thieuban-

Customer plan schedule not showing in Part Availability Planning App9

We have a customer schedule that has the call off’s coming into the Inventory Part Availability Planning screen, however we have plan schedules for the same customer that are coming through for part Y but not part X. Part Y and X are on the same customer agreement and all settings that I can see are identical. I have tried in our test system setting up new customer agreement and new schedules but I am getting the same results, therefore I am thinking it is a setting else where in the system but I am unsure where to look, any advise would be very appreciated.  Thanks in advance for any answers

Remote Warehouse Address on PO

I have created a remote warehouse and on my remote warehouse I’ve setup the address to be that of one of my supplier’s address ID.  I created my supplier assortment with parts and refill parameters.  I run the refill parts and I get my expected Purchase Requisition.  I convert that to a PO and I see the Internal Destination ID and my Register Arrival has the default location of my Remote Warehouse, but on my PO I don’t have the delivery address of my remote warehouse.  Am I missing something here?  What’s the point of setting the address on the remote warehouse and it cannot automatically show on my delivery address for my replenishment order?

MRP - Action Messages

Hi,Im just working my way through some action messages, we have just started using MRP and im quite happy with the majority of the messages and investigating the problem but iv encountered an issue with the ‘ Not Buildable’ message, this is clearly not working as my bom is buildable and the phase in date is 3 years prior so it not date related.the IFS official definition is ...”The manufacturing structure is not buildable or planable. No shop order requisition was generated.”……This last sentence worries me a little as it seems a little random.Am i missing something obvious or is this a bug ?Thanks in advanceAndy

Use of remote warehouse and transport tasks

Hello,We have a scenario where we need to transfer some of our inventory to be held in long term storage using a third party storage facility. We would then transfer some of that stock back to our location on an annual basis, based on forecasted demand. We will still own the material, and we want to be able to see the quantity of parts held in stock at that location so that MRP doesn’t try to plan any new purchases. However, we would need to allow a lead time of say 2 weeks to allow the transfer of any material back to our site. If we had some unexpected demand pop up, we wouldn’t want the stock at the off-site location to show as immediately available.I was looking into the use of remote warehouses & transport tasks to cover this. We have never used these so don’t have any experience with the set up etc. We are a single site company and have always maintained our inventory on site, as company owned material.I created a new remote warehouse with an availability control & transf
