Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

Hello, IFS Community.What solutions are you using to handle Commercial invoices when you are exporting goods?  My company does a lot of Exporting to countries such as Brazil, India, China, UK, Australia and Columbia .  What solutions have you used to produce Commercial Invoices?  I know we have the Proforma Option in the Shipment, however we are looking for a solution that meets the requirements to import good for sale in these countries? 

We recently upgraded from IFS8 to IFS10 and have a report that the Receipt History tab of the Receipt screen did not capture a location change, previously logged as a ‘Moved [qty] [uom] from location [old location] to [new location]’.Can I configure IFS10 to capture Moves?UPDATE: Never mind. I’m finding it does log it and now trying to understand why it didn’t log it in this case.

Hi All,We’re using IFS Apps 8 and want to change the ownership to ‘Company Owned’ from ‘Customer Owned’ for the Inventory Part: G-004614.As per our investigation, one can change/changes the ownership only if On hand qty is not equal to zero and if the Purchase was made incorrectly at the PO line or while issuing the parts in WO or Internal Demand orders viz. Material Requisition, MMR.This is a Serial Tracked Part and we’ve tried to change the Ownership at Part serial record screen.Attaching the reference document, any suggestions on the above step or approach will be much needful. Regards,Venkatesh Iyer 

Hello IFS community, does anyone know if in IFS 9 it is possible to obtain a report of past backorders per inventory part per site per period? This would be to track how well or poorly our inventory planning has been going and calculate our service level to customers from stock items. Thank you!

“Note Text” field update and save causes query changes on screen view. This results in having to run the query after each save when making ‘Note Text’ updates to orders.We are currently running in Apps10.Are any other users experiencing this same difficulty, or is there a way to control the data that is being pulled after selecting save?Below are the usual steps taken.Search criteria is entered to filter down to Order, Release and Sequence No. from Shop Orders Material Planning screen (this typically includes a series of orders) ‘Note Text’ column is updated on the data lines Once saved, the data refreshes to only show the last Order number that was entered in the original queryBe advised that this is happening when one or more release or sequence exists for the same order number.Thanks in advance!

All my inventory transaction posting could no be transferred to the hold table. They are all on completed status but could’nt be transferred. What may be the reason? The purchase transaction transfer is working finePlease advise. 

Hello Everyone,I want to add "Prime Commodity" field in line level to filter the records based on that. According the customer's test plan I added this in Demand planer server window under "Selection of Groups" in IEE. But it has not been reflected in Aurena yet.  

Hi,Is there a way for a demand plan for a component item to be generated from MRP, so that I can calculate that items safety stock using IPR?The example I have is that I have a demand plan forecast for a finished product, that has then been imported into MS, with component MRP run, giving me purchase requisitions or shop order requisitions to supply against that demand.For the purchased components in the structure of that finished product (that are MRP controlled) I want to run IPR to give me safety stocks based on days coverage: This will then give me time phased safety stocks However, as I have a demand model of forecast for the components this only seems to work if I manually create a demand plan forecast for the component part/or let the system create a forecast based on history of the component part.I want the demand for the component to be driven from the forecasts of the items it goes into, as MRP calculates and not another independent forecast.

Has anyone received this message when trying to create a purchase order?  Trying to find where I need to enter this missing attribute.“Purchase attributes are missing for Supplier XYZ Address Number P1”

Hello,I am using IFS10 - IEE . I am running into an error I’ve not yet encountered when using the IFS Excel Migration Tool. I am attempting a data update to the Supplier record. More specifically attempting to update a custom field named ‘Form Type” to assign 1099 related tax form information to given suppliers. When I execute the job I receive the error/response of “The Identity Invoice Info already exists.”. Which is true, as we have some of the basic tax information set up for the suppliers already, but there is no detail yet filled in on the new custom field. Any ideas on what to check would be greatly appreciated.Thank you,-Evan

HiI’m trying to add a delivery overhead for a specific supplier for purchase part.I am able to add the cost element etc on the “Delivery overhead” tab on supplier for purchase part.But after placing a purchase order and receiving it i still don’t get the added overhead.The part is weighted average and there is another delivery overhead on the “default cost bucket” that i do get.So my question is how do i activate so that i get the additional delivery overhead for this specific supplier for purchase part. Running app10 upd11 Thank youBR Andreas

Hi Team,We’re using IFS9 and there is some issue while cancelling PO receipt.On Hand Qty for the Part: B25DAP AGRO is zero and there are currently No Open Demands only one PO which is in ‘Received’ state.The Customer Order for this Part is in ‘Invocied/Closed’ state, tried to ‘Count out the Part’ considering Counting Out an Inventory Part is same as Un-receiving any Inv part.We have tried re-opening the Purchase Order and then changing the Ownership at Supplier for Purchase Part screen from ‘Company Owned’ to ‘Customer Owned’ still no effect. Is there any other option to reverse the PO arrival ‘Transact’on ID’

Starting a standalone topic in hopes of an answer -We need to clear our Received - Not Yet Invoiced report and get it in sync with the GL.  I created an External File load to populate the Closed Date on receipts in our test environment and successfully populated the field and it cleared the RNI report.  However, just because I can do this doesn’t necessarily mean that I should.Can anyone address whether populating this field with an external file is acceptable, or are there system effects that make this not a good idea?Thanks!This is the field in question.  It can be populated by the system in certain instances, or it can be manually typed in: 

Hi All, I am trying to force the user to use Sales Qty = integers for a certain product (no decimals allowed).In order to do so, I was under the assumption we needed to use UoM = ‘PCS’ with UoM Type = ‘Discrete’ and this will set our Qty Calc Rounding automatically to 0. If I understand everything correctly this would be the right set-up. However, when I tried this, the system allowed me to deliver a Sales Qty = 0,1. Does anybody have an idea what I am doing wrong here? Thanks for the input! Best RegardsRoel   

Hi allIs there a way to get this report into Excel, rather than a PDF?  We don’t have the business reporter function ready yet and I can’t interrogate this report if it’s in PDF format.Thanks 

Hi All,We have an issue in Apps 9.0 where OHQ in Inventory Part is 13 and the Inv Transactions for the same part is coming to be 29 there are 16 qts which are missing.OHQ should be 29 as per my investigation.PO was received and inspected at 3 different locations and later returned for rework. There is a delivered 1 qty at Supplier Shipment level.Attaching the relevant screenshots for the same, let me know in case I missed any further info.

I want to add these two fields to a quick report….where would I find them to pull them in.  They are listed in the API as a get, but not sure about the argument ‘rounding’On Apps10 Upd 9

Hello IFS Community,My goal is to find the unique Part Serial for a specific Sale Part No that belongs to a particular Customer Order. When I search a Sale Part No in the Part Serial page, I can have hundreds of Part Serials.
