Good Movement with New Capability Shipment Order course is available in IFS academy. No idea about other locations that we can access this video. 

Hi, let me quote below from the Academy training,

Removed earlier constraints and workarounds

Increased efficiency and usability – utilizing the shipment and receipt processes

Less administration – no need for dummy data related to internal trade

High flexibility - within or between sites

Enhanced planning – can be a supply/demand at any time

Increased consistency

You can access the training from here 

Hi @EnzoFerrari ,

As above mentioned, shipment order is a new functionality introduced in IFS21R1 for the movement of inventory parts between warehouse and sites.

With this new functionality, application allows user to use shipment functionality in moving parts.

Basically the functionality works as below.

Create Shipment order (Convert it to shipment) > Shipment (Process the shipment) > Inventory parts in Internal order transit(Parts are now in internal order transit) > Register arrivals or Incoming dispatch advice (Receipt of parts to destination).

For the question you raised regarding the intersite process, if you have intersite setup and if you use Distribution orders to move parts between two sites, you can replace distribution orders with shipment orders.

But to use shipment orders you no need to have an intersite setup or internal customer/purchase orders, purchase parts etc. So, that is the flexibility you have when using the shipment orders.

But as per my understanding, we can’t use Shipment order in typical intersite flow, other than for the distribution orders.  

Hope this helps. 

Many Thanks,

Hi,

Can just add that the scope and the usage of the Shipment Order will be extended in coming releases. 

In IFS Cloud 21R2 we use the Shipment Order to send material requested by a service task directly to the Service Location. We see many future functional scenarios that will utilize the Shipment Order and we will add more and more scenarios for each release. For instance in 22R1 we are lokking into possibility to use the Shipment Order for part pickup by service technicians.

Furthermore in IFS Cloud 22R1 we are looking into handling of project inventory and handling of all relevant ownerships.

Best Regards

Fredrik
