Purchase req authorisation with no supplier

Question

We have recently upgraded from IFS8 to IFS10 and use purchase requisition authorisation.

When we were on IFS8, if a purchase req had no supplier it was not possible to authorise it. An error message stating “Authorization denied - Supplier has to be specified”.

We have set up IFS10 the same way but now IFS will allow us to authorize the req.

There are no custom events creating this message, so I think this is a standard message. Has the standard functionality changed in this area or is there a way I can setup IFS10 to work the same way, or would it need a custom event?

Hi Darren,

From the patch 120379 it has been decided to remove the validation that a supplier is needed in APP8 itself, both on the Part Line and No Part Line, for normal orders and only keep it for order code 5. So this validation is no longer available in APP10
