Setup a new User and associated them to a Supplier.  Once logged into the B2B Aurena portal I am wanting to see the Coordinate Work Lobby.  This user doesn’t have access like that of the Application Owner user.  I review this Lobby and it is categorized under IEE Lobby.  So when I try to grant Lobby access to the Permission group that this user is assigned it doesn’t appear.Help in understanding how to grant access to Lobbies and Navigation items.  It seems I have the Projections that seem to make sense assigned but still not showing up under my new user.Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

I would like to be able to buy an existing part (no changes in specification) from a new supplier, but these deliveries should not be allowed to be used in regular production as the new supplier is not yet validated. Any ideas?

Hi,  Our customer who is running APP10 UPD11 have recently installed DP Server and client. Below is the question received from customer. Any one have answer for below question: “” I have a couple of questions that I would like to better understand and to grasp the best approach on which Demand Planner tool should be used. I have installed the Demand Planner Client on my machine and have been able to connect to it and it seems to be working now. The desktop version of the Demand Planner is what I understand to be the “Native” version of the IFS Demand Planner Solution. There is also the Demand Planner in the IFS APPS10 IEE application which can be used as well and the same exist in Aurena. My question is this? Is there any difference between these 3 versions in functionality or anything technically that would not allow HF to use them interchangeably? I would greatly appreciate if you could assist me w

I’ve been coming across a very strange issue related to MRP in IFS Cloud. It seems I can’t get MRP to create Purchase Reqs.Below is my IP Planning DataI have also defined a supplier for purchase part:  In Availability I can see I have demand for this part from a shop order (MRP Make): I run the MRP for the site. It completes OK, no errors. This is how MRP Part Info looks like:And in the end there is no Purcha

A colleague is receiving th below error when trying to confirm a PO, although it appears that by making the same attempt around 10 times it will eventually go through. Is there another stage in the process that should be completed before confirming the PO?

Hello, We are presently running IFS Application 10 Update 8 we have the touch app server configured and accessible.  We can successfully run the Aurena Scan IT 10 app and Aurena Notify Me 10 app.  We are properly receiving notifications on the Aurena Notify Me 10 application but we find purchase requisition line authorization behavior strange.   Let me explain.  We’ve been using purchase requisitions for years and we currently approve the requisition lines within  IFS Enterprise Explorer but we now have many more of our authorizers remote or traveling so we thought we would start testing IFS Aurena Notify Me 10 on Android and IOS phones. When the users receive a purchase requisition authorization notification they see the entry in the app on their phone with the authorize / reject buttons.  If they click on the notification to view the details they see in the body of the message all the lines on the purchase requisition.  They go back to the

Hello! I need to test authorization in the P2p workflow. All request order I create pass through autorization. I notice that the authorization required is never checked. Could someone help me to get this “authorization request” checked? See an example attached. Thank you in advance.

Hi Guys, Quantity changes when we GRN a PO. Purchase order is raised with qty 1 but when we GRN it, even with qty 1, it changes to 500 post it in GL. It happens with only 1 line item at the PO rest is fine and this has happened number of times this year. We can reverse it with a JNL but how should this be fixed permanently? Kind regards, Sohail

Dear Sirs; I would like to request to the customer to delivery the customer owned stock to us by issue a purchase order. The following message appeared as leasing the purchase order then the order items was changed to company owned.Please advise to solve the issue.  Regards;Yasuda

IFS Community, Can anyone please point me to the direction of where we can update IFS to prevent the warning “Wanted Receipt Date xxxx-xx-xx is not a Working Day” We have both a WEEKDAY and WEEKEND day type, which we thought would prevent this error, but am still receiving the warning, each time our scheduled database task runs throughout the day & weekend.  What step are we missing to prevent this error?   

We have two scenario’s where we cannot ‘issue’ a material line on work order.  The WO Task and the Material status are both released and if I create a new Material order for the same item, task and site, I can release and issue the newly created Material order.  

Hi,Is there any way we can connect the purchase charges to cost sources??[n.b.: please suggest for apps-9]Regards-Nahin

Why does IFS make a request for an Agreement instead of a request for order when you perform this action from the Project quotation list? Is this something you can setup?I would like to make a request for order quotation instead of an agreement quotation for a part.

Hi, since my customer is Assembly-to-order,their Master Schedule end-item is NOT finished-goods, but Unit(Component). For some common components, it does belong to diffent blow-through parts. But when I tried,  seems IFS do NOT allow one end-item  belong to multiple blow-through-parts.(the “Part-C” in the attached picture)Is there any workaround for it?      

 We need to setup discount for entire purchase order in IFS. But it is not possible to provide discount amount for entire PO.  Note that discount is not specified to an item. It is due to reaching the certain amount of order amount.    How can we achieve it?  

We have just upgraded to App10 and just started testing Demand Server. One test instance has already been installed on one of our servers.Now the users would like to install another one to a different database/instance. The server name is already used as ‘Forecast Server’ for the first instance and port 5010 is also taken.  So can the second Demand be installed on the same machine?ThanksWen

Hello Community need help again, I am running Apps 10 (sandbox). Demand planning server is connected to Demand client, I have set of parts in Flow, but I don't see any historical data (demand) for the selected part in client. My Aggregation type only allows me to delete forecast data.     

Does anyone know if the ‘feature’ in Apps9 on the Master Schedule Set is a bug, where the following happens. MS Set 1: Master Schedule Level 1 supplies are Fixed within the Planning Time Fence. The MS Process does not change Fixed receipts. All other MS Sets: Master Schedule supplies are removed whether Fixed or Proposed, and supply is then generated outside PTF? This functionality makes the Master Schedule for anything other than set 1 unusable.This behaviour is also not present in Apps10. Is this a bug with a fix, or an intended feature of Apps9?    

Kindly let me know, how we can get the RMA stopped at Received Status  

We are creating a material order on Work Order and the quantity on hand isn’t enough to fulfill the order.  We issue the quantity available but the remaining quantity doesn’t show in the Shortage column.  Also, should a new material line get created automatically for the remaining amount?
