Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

We are looking for a way to limit access to confidential PO’s.  Is there anything other than company and site that can drive security roles?  Maybe a PO type or group?

Hello Team, Is there any possibilities of controlling Purchase Order data access by buyer wise in IFS Apps 10. Best Regards, Sank

Does anyone out there know what the EXCLUDE options are when selecting parameters on setting up a scheduled Count Report task?   I use the below as an example only.  We might want to exclude a particular Bay, Row, Tier etc      … or a particular Location Group, Commodity Group etc...     Any thoughts appreciated.   Thanks   Linda

All, does anyone auto input web orders into an IFS PO? We have to order our PPE, so non production orders, via the suppliers website, so that we can match invoices the PO is then again entered into IFS, was hoping someone might have a better way of work that could help ourselves.   Thanks for reading, Sarah

Hello, Currently our set up does not include item received but not yet inspected. While a PO is in open status MRP looks at the open order and considers it in MRP evaluation but once that item is received yet not approved for use it is not considered by MRP and I am prompted to order more of this item sitting in limbo until QC inspect and approves it. Now on the other hand this works well for our finished goods of which we do not want Sales to see the items as available until QC has completed their inspection. Seems like we are missing something in the set up here. Any suggestions? Thanks,  Philip  

Hello Team ,   How to include the transport charges in to part cost in the receiving end during Inter-site stock transfer.   Thanks in advance,

How do you make customer supplied items into consignment items/parts

I want to GRN an inventory part for same site, which is already a manufactured item.   Using IFS App 8

There is field Supp Stat Grp on Supplier, Purchase tab, General tab. It can be used as control type for M10, M18 posting types. I wonder how it iis used in multi-company installations ? For example Polish supplier in Poland would be domestic while in Sweden it will be EU supplier. Unfortunately the data on Purchase tab is not dependant on company so it is global for all companies. How global IFS customers are dealing with it ?

Hi all, One of my customers has asked for an inventory ageing report. Can anybody tell me what are the things that needs to be taken care before asking for further details from the customer. I mean can anybody tell me the pre requisites that needs to be there or may be the basic setup in the system?? Like what valuation methods are possible or whether it is possible for serial and lot batch items??  What possible configuration can be done about this? Any help is appreciated.

Dear All,   I am trying to run MS Level Part one by putting the forecast date with in the DTF and PTF but system is not converting to fixed. Is anything I am missing. Refer Screenshot pls. Thanks BR, HA

Hello -   I have a user that has a PO with a change order and all of the lines are closed except for 1. He would like to cancel this line due to supplier delay but cannot because the change order has “Received” status.   I am new to IFS and am unsure of how to advise him to cancel this last line due to the status of the change order.   Is this possible to do?   Many thanks! Leslie  

Hi,   We have a scenario which requires to enter a forecast for a part but want to generate demand/supply for its components as well. We also need to consume the forecast for the parent part. The problem is that the current business process calls for all customer orders to have supply code as Shop Order, therefore we will be generating double demand. This works fine if we change the supply code to Invent Order in the Customer Order. Any idea on how to do this without changing the forecast or the supply code?   Thanks!

Hi, My company is in progress upgrading IFS 7.2 to IFS 10. I want to know about MRP because before we had to create MRP custom from scratch.  But now IFS 10 has DDMRP that said to be a hybrid of Pull System (Kanban) and Push System (MRP). Is there any company in here already using IFS Application 10 that implementing Demand Driven MRP?  Thank you!  

Using APPS 10, has anyone got NOTIFY_PR_AUTH_COMPLETED working?   We are attempting to have the Purchase Requisitioner receive an email when the Purchase Req has been authorized, which this event seems to want to do but we’re having no joy.   For Background, we DO have PUR_REQ_LINE_TO_BE_AUTHORIZED working and that sends an email to the Authorizers within the Authorization group.  NOTIFY_PR_AUTH_COMPLETED just doesn’t seem to work in the same way.

What would be the IFS Best Practice for doing Reverse Logistics process in IFS Apps10? Customer or Company Owned? 

Hi, In the shop order screen can I select part no configuration in the list of value?  

Have any of you implemented Smart from GEP, Ivalua or Coupa with your IFS System?  

Hi We are returning parts to suppliers. These parts are not included in an IFS order as they were part of opening inventory when IFS was implemented.    How should this transaction be processed in IFS.   Thanks

Occasionally, there may be a need to cease using and existing supplier; even when there happens to be open POs on them. We are looking to stop a valid supplier from being used for further procurement. Some sort of “status flag”. We have both Purchasing and Finance (AP). We may also need to report on “current inactive suppliers”. Can anyone explain where to complete this activity, please?   Thanks very much.  

We have some parts whose previous months usage is calculated on the first or second day of each month.  How can an issue be done and dated in the previous month for purposes of cost reporting and the General ledger?   Thanks

We are currently running Apps 9.  We have received updated bank information from a supplier (which is paid via ACH).  The original bank information was entered using Address ID 1.  The updated information was entered using Address ID 2 and is marked default.  When we generate the payment information, IFS is pulling in the old bank information (using Address ID 1) rather than the default bank information (Address ID 2).  Has anyone else run into this?

Hi,How can we close a PO (RMB on PO header/line) on the follow example:PO with 1 line with milestones (staged payment). Milestones total amount 100€. Approved and invoiced amount 40€.Now without approving, neither reducing the PO line amount through a Change Order, how can we close the PO?Thanks

We have different manufacturing companies in IFS that are individual legal entities. Companies have Intercompany relations with intersite Order flow handled with MHS messages. Ordering companies order with purchase orders at supplying companies, that sell with customer order. Companies are located on different continents. Transport is done via sea freight with transport lead times from 6 to 10 weeks.For the finance consolidation at year end, we face an issue, that components shipped before year end, that are still in transit at year end, are missing in inventory value for the group. At time of shipment,  customer order is delivered and immediately invoiced. Delivery note is sent with MHS dispatch advice. That means, Supplying company does not have the inventory value anymore. Ordering company has not yet received the purchase order. Therefore, components are not in their inventory value.What is the correct process or setup to handle this scenario from finance perspecti

In Material Requisition screen, how can we know who creates the MR, User NOT the Department?
