Setting up the process of directly e-mailing suppliers their Purchase Orders.    Can this be done in bulk or does it need to be indivuudally per PO. I can only see the e-mail order on RMB menu when in each PO and not on multiple screen?

Hello, Can any one suggest how can get demand plan server running. I had active server for master flows, but its not running.

Semi new to IFS and I have been tasked to track Demand Requisitions from date created through authorization to PO.   Looking to track how long it takes for folks to authorize requisitions basically.  In the past they have been ‘sat on’ and never flowed through the system quickly enough. Can anyone assist with a query that will show me created date, ALL who are required to authorize and the date this was done to PO?   Appreciate any help. 

Hi!I have noticed in some instances that, when we execute Transfer Inventory Transactions job for a site, some transactions created during the same day does not get transferred.I know this is not any issue but the system behavior due to some reasons, which I am not really clear of.In the technical aspect I have heard this is caused due to truncating dates when the job is executed. And in the functional aspect, I think this has some reason with deciding the actual costs for the day before they are being transferred. Please help to clarify this.Thanks! 

Supplier is sending us VAT only invoices.  Is there a way of raising a VAT only PO or is it easier to directly code the invoice?

When changing the price on a customer order line that is set for Staged Billing you will get an Information message to verify that the stages are at 100 percent. If you add or remove sales tax you do not get the same Information Message.  Is this the intended behavior of the system NOT to show an Information message when Sales Tax is added or removed from a customer order line set for Staged Billings, or is this a bug?

Hello,We’ve had an issue a few times now where the original customer order for a part was canceled , but no and since it was not informed, so the product was still reserved and shipped. There is no IFS stop on it until they go to deliver the order on the ‘Register Direct Delivery’ page, that there is an error.Can we automate the process of when an order line gets cancelled  it also is cancelled on any connected purchase orders and customer orders? This process update would be specific to the intercompany orders between the two sites and the that sourcing option of primary supplier internal direct. 

We have recently upgraded from IFS8 to IFS10 and use purchase requisition authorisation. When we were on IFS8, if a purchase req had no supplier it was not possible to authorise it. An error message stating “Authorization denied - Supplier has to be specified”.  We have set up IFS10 the same way but now IFS will allow us to authorize the req.  There are no custom events creating this message, so I think this is a standard message.  Has the standard functionality changed in this area or is there a way I can setup IFS10 to work the same way, or would it need a custom event?  

Is there a way to configure to send Outgoing Supplier Invoices automatically to an e-mail address/supplier when they have been printed? We are currently sending them manually after printing.

Hello, Is there any coloumn in the inventory_part or sales_part  for the HS Code (Customs Tariff, Harmonized Code,  Harmonized system) ?

As we all aware, when there is a Drop-off location defined in one particular warehouse (or below levels) and when we move parts using a Transport Task, once we execute the initial transport task, system creates a new (or add to existing) transport task From Drop-off location to Forward to location. I couldn’t find any link (connection) to identify the newly created (or existing one) transport task from the initial transport task. Is there any way to directly go to the newly created (or connected) transport task, instead of go and search in Transport Task/s widows?

Hi All, It was my understanding that all reserved materials can now be moved in Apps10. But, when component parts are reserved for supplier materials, the system does not allow this reserved stock to be moved.Is this the standard functionality and what is the reason behind this? Or am i missing something? Thanks in advance. Regards,Arunalu 

Hi,     In IFS Aurena or IEE , by which menu I can attache parts into Handling Unit?    eg: in there are 10 parts-A  in stock, I would like to put 5 in Box-1 and other 5 in Box-5.    ※in WaDaco, I know we have “ATTACH_PART_TO_HANDLING_UNIT” procss ,   　 but in Aurena or IEE , I Cannot find similiar menu.

Hi All,Im in Apps10 (UPD5) and im trying to understand the functionality on ‘Incoming Purchase Price Catalog - when using price lists’. Example:site 1, site 2, site 3 > all belong to company 1.supplier > supplier 1part no > part 1Supplier for purchase part records for part 1 &  supplier 1 is available on site 1 & 3.sales price list > belongs to company 1. valid for site 2. Now, when i update the prices from the sales price list, it updates the price lists of supplier for purchase part records belonging to site 1 & 3 both.  So my questions are;1.When there is a supplier for purchase part record for multiple sites (but sites belongs to the same company), when updating the prices from the price lists, is it supposed to update the price lists of the given supplier for purchase part, for a given supplier, in all the sites (if the company is the same)? If not, what am i missing here

For this issue, you won’t be able to find an explicit patch from RnD. But patch 152159 resolves the issue even though the bug description identifies something else.Test case:A- Using the Register Direct Delivery window, user enters delivery of partial qty or few lines out of multiple lines. For example: user enters 1.4 qty in one line out of many lines shown (queried to) in Register Direct Delivery window  B- After that, staying in the Register Direct Delivery window (same session, window not refreshed), user now enters 2 qty in a different line and conduct register delivery. Now when you check the Purchase Order Receipts, Purch Arrived Qty in scenario B, it would be 1.4 not 2 (does not have any conversion) which is incorrect. This happens because below Attribute String does not updates when you are performing B, so that it takes the values of A.

Hi all , Please help me to understand how the Demand forecast Reports  generated by the demand planning client is used in other  IFS modules . Is there other modules that automatically receive the forecast generated and where can I find it in IFS. For example where in IPR or MRP can I find the generated forecast used for further processes. Thanks Julius
