Hello Everyone,I am having trouble with the inventory transfer between sites in the intersite process.This is the scenario: Site A manufactures the part and transfers it to site B. The basic process is working, I can move the inventory with a custom order. But, this results in an accounting error in the inventory transaction history, because the inventory part in site A has a different value compared to site B.Is it possible, to automatically update the cost of the inventory part in site B?Thanks,Golo

Hello, I’ve started receiving warning messages when MRP completes. It is referencing several parts with the following message, “The part XXXXXX is not active for the supplier XXXXXX”. I have checked the Purchase and Inventory part status for the parts. I have also checked to confirm that the supplier is listed on the PP.All of those settings appear correct, and I am not sure why the message is still being generated or what specifically is not active.Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

I am looking for Customers who have an interest in using ESL (electronic shelf labels) integrated to IFS in their Warehouse.  Maybe you have already integrated to such a system already?Are you looking to move to a paperless warehouse or maybe to improve the management of your assets with Electronic Labels?  ESL’s can provide visual information and real-time updated information and business value.  Their use can provide CSR value by reducing the use of paper and they have many aspects for more efficient warehouse management.Have you ever considered the use of electronic shelf labels integrated to IFS Applications/IFS Cloud.If so please let me know (janet.apollo@ifsworld.com).Thank you

Can the report Received – Not Yet Invoiced  contain zero value (cancelled) lines from a PO? We obtain the report periodically, the strangest thing was these lines were not in the previous report, but in the latest report we have them! 

Does anyone use a different planning tool other than the APB?  If yes, what tool and did you integrate it with IFS?

Hi, For a few of our suppliers we need to add a document text on the Purchase Order. This information needs to be added every time. That is why we want it automatically shown on the Purchase Order when one of the few suppliers is selected.We have set a document text on the supplier, but don't know how to implement that field on the Purchase Order lay-out in Report Designer.We used this functionalityIn Report Designer I think this is the the field we need: But I cannot drag that field on the lay-out. I only get the invalid cursor as shown below.Has anyone dealt with this kind of problem before?

When a Distribution order is created and released, the Customer Order is created in SITE A and the Customer Order Line default’s to a supply code of Inventory Order.  Even though the Sales Part in Site A has a default supply option of Shop Order.  Is there a way for a CO Line connected to a DO to have a supply code of Shop Order without using a some sort of Custom Event?

After receipting stock in we need to move to QA, but we keep getting an error message that states the stock cant be located - why would this be?

Hi ExpertsIs it possible to set PR authorization based on Total PR amount. One of our client doesn’t want authorization to be req. line-wise. Same is required in PO authorization as well.Is there any possibility to fulfill this requirement in IFS 10. Regards

Do you have experience about Purchase Order Change Order, I just took a first look on that and would like to hear for what purpose it’s used and what are the benefits to use it, or is it so that it’s created automatic when some changes made in PO, so it’s more or less like information. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi GuysHope you are all safe and well,  Im after some advice on how you are setting up suppliers on the system that you would need to send parts to (for coating etc) and then receive them back in before they go out again?So for example a supplier is set up on IFS and I need to send a part to them for coating, how would you currently do this so it reads in IFS where the part is etc?

A Purchase Requisition with a No-Part line was created from a Project Demand. It is fully authorized (Authorization Required not checked) but has the RMB menu option “Requisition to Order” on the Purchase Requisition Line  greyed out (inactive).PR status is Authorized. . The project has another demand fully processed without problems.The Requisition to Order on the Advanced Popup Menu Options is checked.Any ideas what could be affecting the activation of the “Requisition to Order” menu option?

I have created a crystal report version of  the PURCHASE_ORDER_PRINT_REP for our purchase order print.  However in the PURCHASE_ORDER view there is a field called NOTE_TEXT. We want to print this field but it isn’t available in the PURCHASE_ORDER_PRINT_REP view. Is there a way of adding this field to the crystal report? I initially created a link between PURCHASE_ORDER_PRINT_REP and PURCHASE_ORDER by creating a join between the ORDER_NO fields but the NOTE_TEXT comes back blank  when i run the report the through IFS. However when i run the report in crystal outside of IFS the i can see the NOTE_TEXT displaying the data.  

I have scenario were the I want to generate sequence number based transaction i.e when when adding the line to PR sequence number to be generated automatically and for other PR sequence should again start from 1 again

HelloDoes anyone track their Global Location Number in IFS?    I can’t seem to find a place /field for tracking this so just wondering if others are requiring this as well and perhaps I’m just missing it?     Are old ERP system had a form dedicated to its input so find it strange I can’t locate a field for this in IFS under Company or Site . Thank you

Hi, When I try to add a Custom Field to the tab ‘Charges’ on the Purchase Order I get this Error: What do I need to do to solve this?

Curious to know what are the major changes on the way how PO Charges are distributed in App10 compared to older versions?

Hello Community,I need to send one quick report output to management as email at the morning 9 am.Please help.

I’m looking for a way to show RFQ for Supplier Comparison, side by side view.ie.                Supplier A | Supplier B | Supplier CItem A           10.00                9.5                 11.00Item B            5.00                  6.0                 4.500 This is easier to view the items and the supplier and easier to decide. Have anybody done this? Thanks. 

Hi,On MS Level 1 part, we have recently amended our Forecast Consumption rules to roll out from drop, with a forecast window of 7.The first two lines dated 28/10/2020 and 29/10/2020 are actual orders that have been picked, but not yet shipped off our system. We then show a quantity of 1on the 03/11/2020 in the Forecast 1 column and the consumed forecast column. This forecast was not showing on schedule, so I assume IFS has added the forecast into the Forecast 1 column? Is there a reason for this? Also, it is showing as consumed and I am unsure why when the actual demand’s are in multiples of 4?We then show a quantity of 3 in the Forecast 0 column. However, this was a 4 on schedule. Is there a reason why this will have pulled through to MS Level 1 as 3? This is also showing in the consumed forecast column, again unsure why when the actual demand’s are in multiples of 4?Thanks.

There is a requirement to disable the future dates in a calendar on a date data field. I didn’t find any method regarding this in the internal documentation.Is it possible to achieve this using IFS control?Could anyone please assist me on this.

Hi. When I want to add virtual space, the following screen appears. Is there a solution?“This Logical unit cannot have Custom Fields”  

I’m trying to put in a shop order for 100 units of a final assembly which uses 1 each of a component we receive from another location within our own company. Because the component is used in multiple assemblies, and 20 were already on order for a different final assembly part number, the shop order is only driving a distribution order for 80. Those 20 were already allocated to another project, but that association is only through a note, and there is no way to assign parts acquired through a DO to a project until they are received at our site. We need 120 components total for 2 different final assemblies but IFS sees the 20 already on order as available units and is therefore not demanding the correct quantity. Is there a way to change the quantity of a Distribution Order to correct this shortfall?
