Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

Hi Is there a way to use Kanban or to scan and replenish expense parts? We have some spare parts that we do not want to have on stock but we would like to make it easy for the ones purchasing, so they could scan a barcode of the part and then the requisition /PO would be generated with a set order quantity (that could also be scanned from a barcode) and then the cost is booked to  expense and not added to stock value when received. Would appreciate some ideas how to solve this in a good way in IFS.Regards,Marika

Interested in how other companies have granted security and assigned responsibility for receiving noninventory PO’s.  We have a fair amount of project work with Non inv PO’s.  Is all receiving done by shipping dept,  by proj managers , purchasing ?  how have you utilized security and ensured segregation of duties ?

Hello IFS Community, We just went live on APPs 10 Nov 1 2021.  Prior to IFS, our ERP had our boiler plate terms and conditions attached to each purchase order when emailed to the suppliers.  We have since lost that capability in IFS.What do other IFS users do to ensure that their suppliers have their standard terms and conditions? Our preferred is that they go with every purchase order, but if that is not possible, what is the best practice solution that others are using?Thank you!

Dear Community. I was hoping someone might be able to share some information on this topic.I know we can do inspection management when performing Purchase Order Receipts, but if we receive a new item into stock and pay the invoice and then subsequently find that it is non conforming what is the best process to handle the Supplier Warranty? How do we get the part out of stock and returned to the supplier and then process a warranty claim? usually for a full credit. This appears to be a pretty standard request so I am keen to see how others handle this scenario. Thanks, 

Steps –Customer order created. Release, reserve and pick the customer order. This was done through both EE and on WaDaCo. Same outcome. Deliver the order, and then check the background jobs and gives the below error.     Even though IFS has a warning the order does still get a delivery note number.

Curious if there are any US based companies using AP invoice automation.  Would love to partner and learn what work-around customizations were needed with regard to Supplier recognition.  As well, we are experiencing an issuer whereby Pagero payment defaults to just ACH payment type, whereby we have other payment types and are not able to change.The issue seems to be IFS specific vs. Pagero, so hopeful there are other IFS-Pagero users.Thanks,Karen

Hi all, On IFS10; UPD9. We have got a request to be able to mark purchases relating to a specific purpose. These purchases can both be on Project or not on Projects, so Project Code is not really an option.Has anyone has a good suggestion to achieve this? Was hoping to be able to use  Code Part D, allowing to track in Finance, but M1 doesn’t allow pre-posting for this Code Part. And the options available, are not useable for us.  Arend   

Is it possible to edit Quantity in Purchase Order Change Order ? Thanks in Advance

As almost all of our purchase parts are taxable, I would like to change that to default to taxable, which will allow us to use the New Part assistant properly.  Thanks for any help in advance!  New user and working on implementation.  Using 21R2.

We are working to implement intersite processing between sites and in our current process we use the customer order charges tab for freight.  From a PO->CO perspective the lines work fine, however we have not identified a means to have the same interaction with Charges.  Does this functionality exist?  I am curious how others have addressed, or IFS’s suggested solution.

Hello IFS Community!We’re in IFS 9, and attempting to figure out how to deal with an issue. We are having parts assembled at an outside vendor, but we are providing the parts out of our inventory (consignment). We have been defining the Purchase parts as Buildable with the appropriate parts underneath them.After PO release, in the Supplier Material for Purchase Order Line the parts required are listed. This is exactly what we want. However, it is very frequent that we don’t have all the parts listed. Surprisingly, you can’t peg incoming material so we have to check this list daily. We have currently about 30-40 different consignment PO’s in the system currently, so this task of manually checking can be rather arduous.I’m not sure if this is the best method and we are about to proceed with development of a custom script that will go line to line and reserve for us. If the order is fully reserved a custom event action will trigger an email. The development cost is

Hi  we are moving to Aurena and would like to know the projection to allow for all fields to be present for the address entry. Example Supplier screen.  

Is there a way to prevent someone from approving their own requisitions?  For example, if the person is in a group that allows them to authorize requisitions up to $5,000, can you set it up so they can approve as long as they are NOT the requisitioner?

Is there anyway to scroll right in Aurena to view more columns?
