We have a unique setup from what we’ve heard from IFS where we have 1 site per geographical location meaning that even though we have 4 buildings in SC, we only have the 1 site. This simplifies part setup etc. This said, currently we have SITE1 SUPP, SITE2 SUPP, and SITE4 SUPP. 1 is for SC, 2 is OH, 3 is France. We have another company setup for the UK along with their own site and France’s primary vendor is SITE4 but the catch is that they don’t use SITE4 SUPP because it’s not setup for profitability. We use SITE4 SUPP for non-profitable goods exchange from the US to France.
I’ll note as well, it is not possible to have multiple vendors or customers to the same Site for inter-site functionality.
S4 uses their own vendor code that is setup for profitability between S4 and the UK and the UK also has their own non-intersite customer setup for Site 4’s customer orders.
I have setup the UK now so that 4 will issue a PO to the UK vendor. The vendor has been made intersite for the UK and all seems okay there but what I’m concerned about is the flow between the new to the UK France Customer (now using SITE4 CUST instead of the normal profitability customer). SITE4 CUST is also setup as a non-profitable customer record that we use to ship goods from the US to France.
I saw a field on the customer record called “invoicing customer” and I tried to utilize this but it affects the whole customer record and not just a UK1 order. Is it possible to leave the SITE4 CUST as it is and proceed with it being profitable and invoicing correctly or are we doomed because we have a limited number of sites we’re working with?
