Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

IFS Company customer wants to make sure that materials from IFS Company supplier are available for their products and therefore:IFS Company buys the materials and invoices them directly to the customer (with some charge for administration and stock keeping). When delivering a product that includes this material, the invoice price must be corrected for the material used (after all, this has already been paid for by IFS Company Customer).Anyone out there having implemented this requirement?When IFS Company customer would buy these materials and make them available to IFS Company, this might work with Customer Owned Parts, but IFS Company customer doesn't want to be involved like this

Hello, Currently, when we transition a Buyer or Planner out, a Find and Replace is done to locate and update all PP, IP, Supplier records with the new individual. I thought in IFS Apps 10, there was a way to perform a mass change to a new Buyer/Planner. However, I have not been able to find anything in the help section. Does this functionality currently exist? Thank you!

How do you set up two supplier agreements to have one price unit for a box of 10 and another price unit per piece?I want to do this:When I place a purchase order using this first supplier agreement, for a quantity of 10 pieces and a piece price unit, the purchase order takes the supplier agreement with the piece price unit rate. When I place an other purchase order with the same quantity of 10 pieces with a price unit for a box of 10, the purchase order takes the supplier agreement with the price unit rate per box of 10.I see this :When I create 2 supplier agreements for the same part and supplier with 2 different piece price units , the first one is always taken. I cannot change the supplier agreement with the other.can you help me please?

Hi,Please assist on below scenario:In the case of Customer Orders with a source code of ‘Inter-Site Direct’ and ‘Inter-Site Transfer’, date changes originating from the supply site are conveyed back to the demand site’s Customer Order in IFS in the following order: Supply site (eg: Shop Order) > Supply site Customer Order > Demand site Incoming Purchase Order Confirmation/PO > Demand site Customer Order The Incoming Purchase Order Confirmation (IPOC) on the demand site requires someone to approve the change in order to push the change to the demand site Customer Order.The person approving IPOC may or may not be the same as the Coordinator on the demand site Customer Order.Since the approval of IPOC automatically changes the Planned Delivery Date/Time on the demand site’s Customer Order, an email notification is needed to advise the Coordinator on the Customer Order that the date change occurred. How this

We have set up intersite purchase orders but do not wish them to be subject to any authorization rules.  We have a combination of Project, Position based rules but are trying to avoid the need for a complex set of rules that would require constant administration, as would be the case if we apply any of the ‘usage’ criteria.  Does anyone have any suggestion as to how best achieve intersite orders free of authorization rules?

Hi,  Does anyone really how Average Purchase Price is calculated? I know the theory, but cannot prove it in some cases of IFS values in Inventory Part/ Costs/ Average Purchase Price .  What i know are:Average Purchase price will follow the parameters that we put in the scheduled tasks, which is 60 days in our case, applied only for Primary supplier. Average Purchase Price calculation will take only Received/Closed Purchase Order lines with the above time range into consideration.Do know what i’m missing here? 

Hello all, I have been reviewing the purchase part price and I am wondering if there is a way to see the prior pricing for a given purchased parted? Part Cost History does not contain this information. I believe we make too many changes to turn on History logging for that field. Currently, our Purchasing group will update the Supplier for Purchase Part record when we receiving new pricing from a supplier. I’m hoping this historical information is stored somewhere that I am not currently aware of. Any guidance would be appreciated!

Hi Community we are using IFS APP 10 and using the process ‘shop order infinite scheduling’ to schedule our production plans. we are trying to establish a best practice for reviewing and actioning action proposals generated when we run MRP weekly. Currently only a few of the action proposals and actioned and the rest generally ignored.does anyone know of documentation that can identify a best practice or standard approach to take when reviewing action proposals?I'm guessing not all action proposals are equal? so I am trying to identify the hierarchy of importance so our planning department can filter those action proposals on the MRP action proposal workbench. any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.kind regardsJamie 

Hello all, Would you have an idea why, after uploading a new document as an attachment to a purchase order line in the portal, I’m not able to replace the document with a new one ? Exemple:After I upladed the initial document n° “1000206”, version “A1”, I still have a icon “Upload” available (see framed in red below): But, if i upload a new file (= I overight the initial one), a version “A2” of the document is created in the Enterprise Explorer, but it is still the Version “A1” that remaims attached to the Purchase Order Line in the Portal. (screenshot : attachment of a new file as the “A2” version):Result: Nothing has changed in the portal. Moreover, when I

Is there a way to allow a PO to accept a +/- variance to the ordered quantity?  For example - we order 100 boxes, but supplier may have slight over-run, but we accept up to 10% over/under.  Can we set the PO up to allow that automatically for receipts?

IPAP=Inventory Part Availability Planning There is currently a field that shows "demand" against any part in the system within the IPAP and IPAPs windows. Unfortunately this includes forecasted demand on top of ACTUAL demand. How can you see just actual, so we know exactly what is required for only the ACTUAL Customer Order, Shop Order, Purchase Order demand?

This question has been posed before but no conclusive answer was given.We cannot get any result in the Intrastat reporting. It is just empty.We have read this and think that we have set up the data correctly:

IFS provides the ability to add Document Text to some objects in the database (e.g. Customers, Suppliers, Parts, POs and lines, etc). Having done so, it can be configured (via the Doc Text Administration screen) to inherit though to one or more Output documents. For example, we can add doc text to a part record and configure it to appear on any Purchase Order with a line for that part number.This is very useful functionality, but seems to be limited only a pre-determined set of objects.Is there a way to enable document text against addition object types (e.g. could we add doc text to a site, such that all POs on that site show the applicable phrase?)Also, is there a list of all objects to which Document Text can be added (I couldn't find any such list in the help system?)Thanks in advance for any help!
