Hi,

 

We have a requirement where we need a standard IFS solution.

Requirement:

whenever any requisitioner creates a PR against a site requesting for material, system must show the details of stock from other sites in order to transfer stocks internally. System should create a internal PR for parts for other sites in order to transfer them from one site to another site.

System should capture the transactions also either through transport order or other source of mean.

So kindly suggest if distribution order can be used in this place or any other process?

Thanks.

Hi @ProShiraA,

 

Using Distribution Orders is an ideal way of moving parts between sites. However, in the current design, there is no way to create a DO from a PR raised by a user. You will need to create the DO manually. (there are other instances in which DOs are created automatically - e.g. MRP, Order Proposal, DOP etc.)

To view the stocks available in the internal sites, a search could be performed in Inventory Part in Stock screen (may be group by Site and sum by Available Qty).

Another option would be to create a Material Requisition by a user who needs the part, and then source it by purchasing from an internal site.

Thanks.
