Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

When returning material to the supplier, a separate document prints for each receipt.  Does anyone know if there is a way to combine them into one return document?

Dear All,   I am doing the process of Multi Site Order, I want to know do I need to enter the Customer Own Address ID in internal customers as well? since we are already entering on external customer. Also, the check on single occurrence is still coming on internal PO and internal CO, Is this because I have not entered customer Own Address ID for internal customer and internal supplier,. Please confirm.   Thanks IFP    

Hey Guys,    Is IFS possible to create a limitation( Or Approval Process)  when user try to re open and try to do changes for a closed PO ?     

In our stock search screen. The allocated number shows as zero. However if you click the link you will see that there are 3 requests that have this part allocated   

Does someone have experience with using Kanban for supplier schedule? We are trying to achieve this but we can’t figure out the correct setup.

I got in contact with a company that buys a lot of materials. All these materials are packed needed to protect the content when arriving in the warehouse. The company wants to have more clearity on this package materials (plastics, wood, carton, etc.). As they need to pay for the waste. Now that they don’t have full control over it, they pay the maximum. How does your company handle this waste. Does your company have a waste management system connected to IFS? Have package information connected to supplier for purchase part? All ideas welcome, Steve

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
