Dear all,There are questions about planning methods? what is difference among planning methods C (order up to planning), F (part period balancing planning), D (fixed order qty planning)?It is very important to us to know the way of calculations for each planning method.Now , in our planning policy, we consider the same planning method G (period order qty planning) for all purchasing component parts. But it seems that it is not true because of their priority based on ABC analysis.I am going to know that what is the best planning method for each category (A,B and C) to have a suitable supplying for them to prevent future shortages. There are some fluctuations during our planning periods and some times we miss many customer orders. 

When a line is issued you can’t unissue from this screen if there was a connected PO from a Work Order. You can only unissue from the Work Order. You can unissue from the maintenance material requisition line if there is no Purchase order connected to the WO line.Is there anyway they can unissue maintenance material requisition line screen regardless if there is a connected PO to the WO? We want to limit our warehouse users to use this screen instead of using the WO screen.Any help/insight would be appreciated. 

Is there an IFS expert who could give an idea how to diagnose the cause of this wrong calculation on my invoice order. The right price order are in red. Thank you. 

When we are using foreign currency in the PO and local currency in the line level, the system automatically gets to whole numbers with 3 decimals, How can we remove these automatically fetching decimals. (Application 10)  

The three last lines in the attached order request is showing wrong calculations of the unit price X qty. Where and how this error can be corrected on IFS EE?Thanks to all answers. 

Hi, We are trying to drive materials in MRP based on revision dates on the product structures.  We’re able to see MRP no longer planning replenishment for the material that would be phasing out beyond the phase out date of the product structure, but do not see it picking up the planning for the new raw material item based on the phase in date of the new product structure.  Is this not possible in IFS?   Thanks,Curtis Carpenter

Hi,We have created a new site and created inventory parts for this site and set the Planning Method to B. And the IPR parameters were set as below. But when we do the IPR Refresh, we get an error ‘Site not loaded’ Is there some setup that is missing that does not load the part for the new store in IPR? The registry settings for the DP server has onlyLoadSite as empty meaning all sites should be loaded.What have I missed that gives me this error? Please advice!

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 - We are on apps 10. We are considering using customer orders for entering forecast parts sales to create demand for purchasing.  The situation is that we will win a bid so we know we will be selling a certain part but we don’t know the customer or the timing yet.  Purchasing needs to start their process on long lead items so they want demand in the system.  Does anyone use a forecast customer order?  How do you identify that it is a forecast because we would not want the order to ever be picked or invoiced?  Once we have a PO, we would enter a new customer order or possibly convert the forecast customer order to a “real” customer order.  Any ideas would be welcome.  Thanks

I’m hoping there’s an expert who can assist on the workflow of PO Change orders when applied on inter-site POs.  We are on Apps9 and have PO Change Order enforced on sites within company A.  We have a PO on site B where the supplier is site C.  I think the workflow is as follows:Create PO Change Order for PO on site B Make necessary PO changes in POCO eg qty change to 3 from 2.  Save.   RMB in PO Header, select Send Change Request RMB on PO line, select Supply Chain Orders Analysis Select CO.  RMB to Incoming Change Request Manually update Incoming Change Request for Customer Order eg qty change to 3 from 2 RMB in Incoming Change Request for Customer Order Header.  Select Approve Status on Incoming Change Request for CO changes to Processed and the connected CO and SO are updated RMB in POCO Header and select Release RMB in POCO Header and select Update PO PO = Purchase OrderCO = Customer OrderSO = Shop OrderPOCO = Purchase Order Change Order I think I was rather hoping that the Incomi

Hello,has anyone had experience with the OCI (=Open Catalog Interface) in the past? (preferably in Apps10)  Is there even a standardized solution here, if applicable? In the past it was BMEcat, but lots of suppliers are changing the format from BMEcat to OCI. Thanks in advance for any tip or hint. Best Regards,Lorenz

Community, would like to hear from you, your experience in dealing with received partsmove into stock inspection at arrival move to QA, inspect at QA  other exceptions - to arrival only, and need to move to quarantineare you using different color label to have visual direction? for example,  move into stock - normal white label. inspection at arrival - green label, if passed, QC to print normal white label. move to QA, inspect at QA -  yellow label, once passed inspection, QC to print normal white label, but if failed, red label.  other exceptions - to arrival, and need to move to Quarantine - red label.Are you using the above methodology to drive the material flow? if not, what else you used to perform the same?Thank you.

We have discovered a problem when updating Purchase Price on a Purchase Part. When we are matching the supplier invoice to a purchase order and want to update the Purchase Price, vendor part no and description clears on the purchase part. In the API-method “Purchase_Part_Supplier_API.Modify_Supplier_Part_Info” we can see that these columns are present but it seems to replace with an empty value.since it seems to get NULL value from procedure “Purchase_Order_API.Modify_Part_Price” that´s calling this method:       Purchase_Part_Supplier_API.Modify_Supplier_Part_Info(contract_,                                                           part_no_,                                                           vendor_no_,                                                           new_price_,                                                           NULL,                                                           discount_,                                                           old_additional_cos

Dear community,  I wondered if anyone had any experience with External Service Orders, (Type 6) and RFQ. We have the scenario whereby we need to send the part to the supply from inventory for inspection/assessment then they provide a quote. However I dont know how we can ship via the customer order from a Purchase Req or Request for Quote? Any ideas?
