My organization is in the process of implementing IFS cloud as our new ERP system. I am looking for thoughts/ideas around how to register arrivals on lot tracked material. For example, I order 10 skids of material that all have individual lot numbers and individual weights. The purchase order is for 40,000 lbs. of part number 12345. I would like to register the arrival against the PO by populating 10, 4000 lb. skids by individual lot numbers without manually overriding the PO. Is there an “upload” functionality that can avoid the manual process? Other ideas? Thanks in advance for the thoughts!

Hi ​@PhillipMiller1212,

If you have the different quantities and lot batch numbers information in advance for the receipt, then you can integrate a DESADV EDI message to create an Incoming Dispatch Advice record and then receive all the lines at the same time. If EDI message is not feasible, you can also create the incoming dispatch advice manually in advance when your supplier provide this info and before the parts arrive physically to your site. Then, once they arrive, you can receive all the lines from the Incoming Dispatch Advice record created previously.

Regards,
