Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

Hi all,IFS Cloud 25R2. We use subcontracting with Purchase Component Method = Customer Order on the site.Setup:Purchase part JH1300 is bought from supplier A and has a purchase part structure with three components: JH1310 and JH1315 (bought from supplier B), and JH1335 (manufactured in-house). All three components are also sales parts. For JH1310 and JH1315 the sales part sourcing option is Primary Supplier Direct, with supplier B as primary supplier on the purchase part. For JH1335 it is Shop Order. Supplier A is also set up as a customer.What we want: when the PO for JH1300 is released, JH1310 and JH1315 should be ordered from supplier B and delivered directly to supplier A (no stock receipt on our site), while JH1335 is manufactured by us and shipped to supplier A.What happens: when we release the PO, a customer order is created for supplier A with lines for all three components, but the supply code on every line is Inventory Order. The sourcing option defined on the sales parts is

Hi everyone,I'm looking for some advice on how best to handle under-receipts against Incoming Dispatch Advices in IFS10 when dealing with internal suppliers / inter-site orders.Our current scenario is as follows: An internal order is created to transfer 10 units from one site to another. The supplying site dispatches the goods and an Incoming Dispatch Advice is generated for 10 units. The receiving site receives the shipment but only 9 of the 10 units have arrived. The receiving site processes the Incoming Dispatch Advice with an actual receipt quantity of 9. The issue is that the Incoming Dispatch Advice closes after the receipt of 9 units, while the purchase order remains open for the outstanding quantity of 1.If the missing unit is subsequently dispatched, we cannot generate a new Incoming Dispatch Advice for the remaining quantity through our current internal supplier process.My question is: What is the recommended standard process in IFS10 for handling under-receipts in this

We recently updated to 25R2SU4 and ever since, our receipt clerks have been having sporadic problems when receiving. They’ve noticed that when receiving, sometimes the “inventory qty to receive” will go negative, it’s typically on the 2nd receipt of the same line. They are typing into the arrived qty and the conversion factor for the SFPP is 1. I’ve pulled the dataset for the whole year below. Has anyone else had this problem and if so, what was the fix? I can’t get it to replicate so I know that if I put a ticket in, it will be open in perpetuity. I was hoping that you guys are like oh it was happening and then we updated to this version and it stopped. Since going live with the new version (25R2SU4 from 24R2SU11) we’ve had 8 instances where before we only had 2 for the whole year. the line below separates the update from the old version.  

In IFS Cloud 25R1, I am unable to add one of our configurable parts to a Supplier Agreement. When attempting to add the part, I receive the following error:"It is not allowed to enter a configured part."   Has this behavior changed in IFS Cloud 25R1?If configurable parts are no longer supported directly, what is the recommended approach to achieve the same business requirement in Cloud? In the previous Apps 9 environment, we were able to add configurable parts to Supplier Agreements without issue. Any thoughts, suggestions, or guidance on how this can be achieved in IFS Cloud 25R1 would be highly appreciated.

In Apps10 IEE, when duplicating a purchase order line that was associated with a purchase requisition, is there an easy way to inherit the purchase requisition number, project connection and associated doc text information to the new line? Our users are reporting that this was the behavior in Apps 8 before we upgraded to Apps 10.

In our current IFS Cloud 26R1 implementation, we have identified a business requirement to manage the Approved Supplier List (ASL) at the supplier address level, rather than only at the supplier level.Our customer is a co-packer in the food industry, packaging products on behalf of various suppliers.For example, a supplier may provide cereal for packaging into different types of consumer packaging. However, that supplier may manufacture the cereal at several different production facilities, each represented by a separate Address ID in IFS Cloud.Due to food safety and quality requirements, the customer may only approve products originating from specific production facilities. Therefore, a supplier may be approved, but only certain Address IDs associated with that supplier should be approved for sourcing.We would like to understand: Does IFS Cloud 26R1 support managing the Approved Supplier List at the Supplier Address ID level? If not, is there any standard functionality or recommende

Hello, I would like to add the CF to retrieve the Buyer Code base on the ordernoselect Purchase_order_API.Get_Buyer_Code('F1011569') FROM DUAL;But I do not see the ReceivableObjectInfo entity in the entities

Hi,I’m wondering if it is possible in Apps10 Aurena to allow users to select pre-posting values on purchase order no part lines rather than using a pop-up window when the line is saved.Ideally, I’d be able to use the Page Designer to configure LOVs to show as fields on the order line itself, so the user can select the pre-posting values at the same time as entering basic info like description, price, quantity, etc.Please let me know if you have achieved this functionality using Page Designer and how I can set it up.Thank you

I am getting the attached error when trying to specify an Internal Supplier and Supplier Site.  The error seems to suggest that there are already Purchase Parts at this site connected to this Supplier.  Do the parts need to be set up differently or is this an issue with the Supplier set up?

Hello all,We want to use the supplier calendar to reflect the impact of Chinese New Year in the planning leadtime. But for some reason I cannot seem to let it work. The steps taken so far:Created calendar; Entered exceptions to the calendar (start of CNY + start up time); Generated the calendar; Added the calendar to the supplier; Run Calculate Purchase Leadtime.I would expect the expected leadtime in the inventory part would be updated. But I do not see a change. Is the correct way to set it up? Any idea's, tips and tricks are highly appreciated.

Hello, We just implemented IFS and we are using the Inspect in QA process. Some receipts are for large quantities and we would like to release partial quantities from the receipt. Currently we are registering the inspection results for partial qty then changing the total inspection qty to zero in order to allow Move into Stock. However this restricts us from inspecting further until the stock is moved. Is there a better solution?

Hi Everyone,I have an issue/question regarding the Second UoM for Inventory Parts. We would like to use the Second UoM functionality on the Register Arrival page.In our construction purchasing process, suppliers sometimes deliver materials using a different UoM than the one specified on the Purchase Order.For example, we may order sand in tons on the Purchase Order, but the supplier may deliver it in m³. We have a defined conversion factor between these two units, and we would like to register the arrival using the second UoM.Is there a way in IFS Cloud to register the arrival using the Second UoM while keeping the Purchase Order in its original UoM?I would appreciate any advice or guidance on how this can be configured or handled in IFS Cloud.Thank you.

Hi there.I enter a supplier code in Create Order Proposal (in this case supplier 10071)......then press finish. The results I get do thou include parts parts not from this supplier.Part 11318 has Primary supplier 10533.Part 11993 has no primary supplier.Do you have any ideas why I get results from other suppliers?

Hi, I am setting up Procurement portal with a Supplier. We are using OCI with this supplier. I get the punchout connection to work, and item is returned to basket.I do however not see the category returned.in the payload I can see that NEW_ITEM-MATGROUP[1] is 53102503. I would expect this value to be present in field Suppliers Part Category. Am I missing some setup or is this a bug?

Hi ,I have a DP forecast which I adjusted manually . Then it was set to ‘reviewed’ (tested both in DP client and as well Demand Planner page) . Afterwards I ran the job “Import Demand Planning Forecasts”In MSL1 forecast ,  I can only see the original DP forecast (sys forecast)  but not the adjusted forecast. What am I missing ? I am working in the version 23R2I confirmed as wellKind RegardsYashodha 

Does anyone know how to split supplier allocation in IFS? If I want to give 50% of the volume to one supplier and 50% to another, what needs to change in IFS? how does it behave? Thanks!

We have a number of suppliers where our delivery terms are Ex Works, and we am looking to implement a process where we take ownership of the goods when they are dispatched from the supplier location. Currently we register arrival when the goods land at the destination. The requirement is to record the goods in inventory when the leave the supplier location, but also maintain a available date which reflects the transit time to the destination site. I am considering registering arrival at the point of dispatch from  the supplier and using an internal transit time to control the available in inventory date. Would anyone be willing to share any experiences in this area? Is there any functionality that i might be overlooking?

we create purchase order with 2 quantity and po is connected to project,and we issue 1 one quantity against workorder mrnbut the problem is that when we see the costing in project navigator  it only get work order material not general material requisation  

I have a normal PO with no associated Shipment, 4 No Part Order Lines - overall single occur Delivery Address, ONE of the lines uses the default delivery address.  Change Order created to change the price, description, and wanted delivery date on 3 of the lines and a new line is added using same single occur address.This PO was copied from another PO with pretty much the same information.When attempting to Update the PO, the ORA-20110 error appears. I don’t see ANY field in Supplier or PO called Delivery Type.  WHAT AM I MISSING HERE??

Hello, Can anyone tell me where this field populates from? I have a few lines that are showing up as quotation request instead of purchase request and I can’t figure out why. Thanks,Mike  

The Register Arrivals pages in IFS Cloud can’t be sorted by clicking column headers in 23R1. The page didn’t sort in the previous version we were on. My IT Team submitted a case and were told it is never going to sort?  No plans to make it sort in the future. Searching is great, but when our folks have a packing slip and parts in their hand it’s often faster and easier to sort 100 lines and scroll to what you need. What’s the logic behind this page not sorting so I can understand how we’re supposed to use it?

Dear experts,I have an issue/question with relate to an MPL voucher 2026004280 connected with PO 15248636 an Project ID 1044946 in IFS. There are multiple lines with Posting type M189, M1,M10 and M62 lines for which, we cannot understand on how they are created. Purchase Order is already closed and have been matched with an Invoice in July 2026. Below are the details of the PO lines matched and  connected Invoices. PO lines matching details.Difference between Invoice Header Net Amount and Total Invoiced Amount of Matched PO LinesThe amounts highlighted in red are matched with charge lines, which makes sense.Now the issue is that, even these lines are matched and issues to the project in July 2026, connected Inventory Transactions are updated with M189 posting lines. See example below.GL lines connected with PO 15248636, Release no - 09 and Project ID - 1044946.Connected lines in Dist and Manu Postings analysis.Connected Transaction Revaluation Event details.Initial Arrival charge and R

My customer is using the Self-service Procurement and the Punch out functionality. The customer needs to do some extra stuff when each cart line is created. This is solved by a custom event which is posting a background job, which is running some logic doing the extra stuff.The above works fine when you add parts to the cart from the catalog. Each created cart line, creates a background job by the event. But, when using the Punch out, the background job ending upp in error: “FndUser does not exist”. Looking at the background job you can see that there is no user added inte “Fnd User”-field. To me this means that the session that creates the cart line (from the Punch out), and at the end also creating the background job by the event, is some other user. I don’t know the logic behind the Punch out-integration, but it seems like cart line is created by a “ghost” user, at least not normal Fnd users. Can anyone bring some light over the Punch out-integration and maybe explain “who” is actua
