Unable to update descriptions on Change Orders

HiBit of a strange one for you all. Our procurement team are able to create change orders in one of our companies and amend descriptions on the lines etc, but cannot do it in our other company, they get an error saying it needs to be in planned status, so they change it to planned and then get an error saying Description cannot be changed when status is not Released or Confirmed, yet it works fine in the other company. I have checked the base data but cannot find anything relating to change orders, and I don’t think its permission related if they can do it in the other company.Does anyone have any ideas?ThanksHayley

Event - Fire Supplier Delivery Reminder

Community, We are going to utilize the IFS standard functionality “Purchase Order Delivery Reminder” to fire purchase order delivery reminders supplier based email to suppliers (RMB functionality) when new objects are created in this window.  To automate this process, I think we better create a custom event. We are not quite familiar with Custom Event. Any help I could get from here? any document we could use?   Thank you all.

Directly create PO from MRP proposals

HI, for a specific client need we are exploring the possibility to directly create POs from MRP proposals : no manual conversion from PR to PO under a specific amount (let’s say less than 500€). Is there any way to do it ? 2nd option is to create PR at released status, planner still save time in low-amount needs processing.Thanks for your help and insights on both topics implementation possibilities.Best regards.Baptiste.

Order processing inter site

We have done the setup Automate Purchase Requisitions and Orders including Intersite, where site A raises workorder and from there PR / PO goes to SITE B. There is a part X available in both the sites , on site A it is a purchase part and in site B the same part X will be as manufactured part. Ideally the flow will start from Site A raising Purchase requisitions and then using  order processing the pr gets converted to PO and then a customer order is getting created at site B , but the problem is we have to manually release those customer orders in order for shop orders to get generated. Is there a missing setup . I want these customer orders to be released automatically.

Supplier for Purchase Part - Price List Migration

Hi all,I’m looking to perform a migration to the price list tab within Supplier for Purchase Part. This migration will include numerous parts/suppliers in the one migration.So, I would want to create a new line in the price list tab for numerous parts/suppliers in the one job - I have this setup via an excel_migration job. However, I receive a ‘no operation’ error as follows:All mandatory fields are defined (IFS docs say this is the reason for the error). Is this the best type of migration/even possible for this requirement? Or what type would be advisable.

Order Report for Purchase Order always display all the print options

Have you ever experienced any situation where  it is  possible for the system to filter the print options based on the status of the PO?Is there an option we can use to adjust applicable print options according to the PO status.?For example cancelled POs only have the “Print Order Work Copy” command as the print option.But in the order reports when user enter the cancelled PO number it shows all the print options.User tries to print the “Order Changes” report.Option to print 'Order Changes' is available for a PO with no POCOsWhen user selects a non applicable print type there is no output. Just wanted to check if there is any option available or experience to share.

Component Customer Order - Undo Delivery

Hello. When using Component Customer order on a External Services (type 6) we have the case whereby we delivered the part from inventory on the  customer order and it moved to invoiced/closed as the line item was 0.00.  When i attempt to undo the delivery of the Customer Order we receive an error “Cannot undo customer order delivery for component where the item is not charged.” What is the method to undo the delivery to get the part back into inventory when this happens? Many thanks, David.
