Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

Hello all,Please I would be glad if someone can show me the system flows of how Forecast from the demand planner flows into IPR in IFS and how it is connected to stock on Hand to generate purchase requisitions  for replenishment purpose i.e.  how the report move between screens in IFS. Thank you  Julius

Dear all ,It is not allowed to use manufactured part to move within locations using transport task.  Do you have any views on this ?   Thanks in advance.

Question,  is there a way to include these two dates in the P.O. C.O. process (as part of the enforce rule)?  Testing indicates these two are not included.  Changing (only) the Promised Del. Date using the RMB context menu “Confirm with Differences via Change Order” does not invoke the P.O. C.O. process. WHY I ask:  We would like to capture these “Vendor Driven” date changes, holding the P.O. C.O. from Release (that’s a security issue-easy) until production schedules and commitments are considered by the materials planner.Cheers!

Hellothe customer wants to print several invoice templates for one invoice:   1 - customer invoice   2 - certificatequestion:  is it possible to set up several models? 

How do we send inventory back to a supplier for rework/repair?We received on parts 3 months ago. We have paid the supplier and are now found a failed piece of equipment. How do we send it back to the supplier for rework. The original PO cannot be re-opened due to staged payments already being processed. We do not wish to receive a credit, or invoke any other transaction other than showing this part left our company and is sitting at the supplier. 

I am exploring using the Customer Calendar in order to set a certain day(s) of the week that we can ship to a specific customer address. I have set up a schedule and calendar and assigned it to a customer address. The logic does seem to be working as I thought it would but I only get an Information Message popup stating “Planned Delivery Date is not on a working day according to the customer calendar, the next working day is 15-FEB-21”.  I click ok and the dates still default to the non working day. All of our parts are set up to use the availability check so our lead times (mfg, picking etc..) are used to determine the planned ship dates. So my question is does the Customer Calendar have any functionality behind it besides a pop up message? Is there something else I’m missing in the set up?

Hi,we are using the Notes for Order Reports to guide the user how to fill the input parameters. The Notes are packed as default in Aurena. Is there a way how to set that Notes are unpacked as default? Thank you

A customer would like to have the possibility to exclude running purchase order lines from MRP calculation. Reason is that when sourcing a new supplier a test PO is placed to see if they can deliver against the required quality standards. MRP must ignore this supply. Ideal would be to check these lines as ‘not nettable’. Does anyone know a fitting solution for this? 

Is it possible to set the system up to automate the matching of PO receipts to Invoices in IFS 10. Here is our scenario.We enter a purchase order and send to the supplier.The supplier ships the product and emails us the invoice.We enter the invoice into the system.A week or more later the product arrives on the dock.Is it possible to have that receipt automatically match to the pre-existing invoice?  

The checkbox “Show Only New/Changes lines” in the Purchase order change order LU show/hide the lines only when certain fields gets change and it does not consider any changes made in any Custom Field.I have a custom field CF$_X1 on the Part Order Lines,I want the Show Only New/Changed Lines function to recognize any changes made on CF$_X1 as Change.What is the best approach  to achieve this?TIA

Hi ExpertsRecently i came across with a business scenario where our client has an internal maintenance department and it performs maintenance on their own assets.For Example: They are performing maintenance on an Air Conditioner. There is a fault in one component of air conditioner i.e. compressor so they purchase it through normal purchase process and replace it with the faulty one. Now, they get the faulty compressor repaired and keep it into inventory so that it can be used whenever required.My Question is how to add unpurchased component (i.e. Faulty compressor which was repaired) into inventory. What would be the cost of that compressor? Do mention if anybody has experienced this kind of scenario.looking for some positive response. Regards 

We are having some purchase requisition line status not changing to “PO CREATED” after it is released and PO is created.  Sometimes we need to change the  Supplier then the requisition  will go into “ Authorization Required” status.  For some reason, when that Approval of the requisition is done again, the requisition header will move back into “Authorized” status. That is when the planner doesn’t have the ability to re-Release the requisition.   Is this the reason the line status hangs in status “ Released” forever even if a PO is created?   IFS help notes:The selected purchase requisition lines are converted into a purchase order. The requisition lines are added to an existing purchase order, or a new purchase order is created. The status on the requisition header is updated from Released or Authorized to Closed when all the requisition lines are converted. The requisition line status is updated to PO Created.  

I am trying to use non inventory parts to purchase requisitions from it but I want to  it automatically, there is any idea or steps or something that could help me with it. please

Hi Everyone.This scenario can be tested in App10 test LKP.The below price list is owned by Company 10 (Site “1” and “2” are created in company 10 as well).and the sales price is 32.00. And the Valid for site is “1”Customer uses “Send sales price list” (RMB feature) and add below details then press “ok” Then go to “Incoming Purchase Price Catalog” window and RMB> Approve the relevant record. Go to Supplier for purchase part and open the below records.Supplier - PL950Part No - ANGO008;PTA-PART4You can see the updated price list in both site 1 and 2 for both partsI set Valid for site as “1” but the price list details have been reflected in site “2” as well. The question is, when there is a supplier for purchase part record for multiple sites and  the price is updated from the price list, should this price be updated in all the sites (if the company is the same)If it is the functionality, is it possible to restrict this for a specific site?

Why these TT lines are showing up in the order proposals? It doesn’t make sense. They are already here and reserved, why would the system think we need more.
