Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

At the site level, there are many “shortages” for parts.  But when I query for all parts in this module I receive only 4.  I do notice that in Inventory Part Availability Planning these 4 parts have the “Shortage” column.   The system parameter Shortage Handling is set to Yes. The Shortage Notification check box must be selected, has been selected for all active Inventory Parts in the “Misc Part Info”.     Is there a “Job” that needs to run that moves the information to the Shortage column, so it can be viewed in the “Inventory Parts with Shortages”

Is there a way in Apps8 to create one customer order from different sales quotations  ?

Accoding to current legislation EORI numner will be effect in UK from jan 2021,  DOes anyboby has an idea where we can save the EORI number on customer.  Will IFS be giving any patch for this?  DO we have to use Note or a custom filed? Informtion on EORI number ( according to Gov.uk) -https://www.gov.uk/eori“You need an EORI number to move goods between the UK and non-EU countries.From 1 January 2021 you will need one to move goods between Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales) or the Isle of Man, and the EU. You may also need a separate EORI number if you move goods to or from Northern Ireland.If you do not have an EORI, you may have increased costs and delays. For example, if HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) cannot clear your goods you may have to pay storage fees.”

How I have to set up, that the supplier could see the attachement on the Purchase Order Line in the B2B Order Management for Supplier - Order Details? 

Hi,I know there is a minimum stock value on the Inventory Part, this is the Safety Stock. But is there also a maximum stock? A simple example:When the inventory quantity of a part in stock is zero, and the maximum stock is 10. IFS should suggest a Purchase Requisition after MRP with a qty of 10 pieces.

Is it possible to turn off purchase order change orders so a change order is never required, regardless of authorization rules?

Has anyone used a view other than External_Invent_Part_Issue_Pub or Internal_Invent_Part_Issue_Pub to define a Base Flow. We would like to use something like CUSTOMER_ORDER_JOIN_CFV to utilize some custom fields. To date I have not managed to use any view other than those suggested in the Base Flow wizard. Any comments most welcome.

Is there a way to make a Supplier Payment in Advance of the goods being received and which can subsequently be matched to the invoice when the goods are receipted?  There are very limited instances where this is required to be done, nevertheless it would be useful to know if there is a way it can be done in IFS to mitigate the manual monitoring required to confirm the goods have been received after payment.   Many thanks in advance.

Is it possible to freeze a given forecast within a specific window out of the box while allowing a horizon in the future adjust whenever ‘create forecast’ is run?  Does the lead time factor into this within the client or is it just another data point? I’m aware that i could go item by item, toggle the padlock and then move forecasts per period one by one, but it’d be great if they could be locked and the standard ctrl, shift, drag functionality would work. I’d like to use the metrics within IFS so i can compare a lag-1 or a lag-3 forecast’s accuracy/bias/adjustment factor/etc.

Hi all,I have a customer who has a requirement to add internal overhead costs to any purchase order : i.e. for a procurement of services or goods (non inventory parts), the  cost will be equal to the PO cost + 10% for internal overhead management (to be distributed in specific accounts in accounting).Is there a specific setup available in IFS to manage this kind overhead (as it exists to manage overhead for inventory purchased parts)?Thanks in advance for any help 

We plan purchase order lines for 8 weeks in the future in connection with the lead time of some part numbers. Somethings the price of the supplier changes during this weeks.For example we plan now for 8 weeks and next week the supplier send a update of the purchase price + 1,-. The purchase department changes the supplier for purchase part per the valid from date but the purchase order lines which have been created in the past are not up to date anymore.Does anyone know if there is an option in IFS to update the prices automatically? Or how we can update the purchase orders lines? 

I want to restrict the account codes available as part of the pre-postings when employees raise purchase/material requisitions.  Although I have created a saved search, I do not appear to have the option to set a default, showing only a few of the options. 

We have a customer schedule that has the call off’s coming into the Inventory Part Availability Planning screen, however we have plan schedules for the same customer that are coming through for part Y but not part X. Part Y and X are on the same customer agreement and all settings that I can see are identical. I have tried in our test system setting up new customer agreement and new schedules but I am getting the same results, therefore I am thinking it is a setting else where in the system but I am unsure where to look, any advise would be very appreciated.  Thanks in advance for any answers

We have recently migrated our Demand Plan Server across to a new 2012 server from 2008 and are experiencing issues every Sunday when our scheduled Create Forecast job runs.When the job runs it is overwriting Forecast Values that should be fixed (having already been adjusted). The affected week rolls on each week on the Sunday but is consistently current week + 2, so at time of posting this in Week 46, the numbers affected fall within Week 48.This only appears to occur on a Sunday presumably as our periods are defined as weeks, Sunday - Saturday.Work around in place to rectify the invalid data and case raised with IFS.Just wondering if anyone else here has had similar issues and could share any knowledge or experience. IFS Apps 8, Demand Plan Server
