Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM)

Hello,We received a request to setup 110 customers to auto invoicing so we usually setup the scheduled database tasks called batch create customer invoice and batch print customer invoice. However, it seems these database tasks only accepts one customer number per scheduled database task setup. Is there a way to automate multiple customers for these scheduled tasks instead of per each customer number? Note that these customers belong to different companies. Please advise. Thanks Note: We are currently in IFS10

I have a purchased raw part and on the supplier for purchase part record. I added a price list for a new price of the part some time in the future.  However, when I enter a purchase order line for a wanted delivery date beyond the effective date of the new price, the system still displays the supplier for purchase part price from the general tab.  Is that how it is supposed to work?Thanks!

All,I must admit that my experience with the MRP Spares Forecast functionality is a bit lacking.  When working with a customer on this functionality, several questions arose: 1) Why is the system mandating online consumption flag when the forecast consumption is still happening?2)   Is there an option for forward forecast with online consumption flag turned on3) Since we cannot add parts to spare parts family forecast without the online consumption flag turned on, what are the repercussions of this approach:Can we turn it on while assigning the spare parts to the family and turn it off via a script in the background? 4) Are there are any implications of using spare parts forecast without the online consumption flag? Thanks!

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!

Customer is adopting IFS Clould 25R2/26R1.  Customer is demanding to incorporate “Ship & Debit”  which currently IFS could does not have.

What does this error mean - “Only 0 of the requested sales part - XXXXXX is available.  Part cannot be added to customer order due to priority reservation usage.”?

I have paid to a supplier invoice and the vendor noticed that it was cancelled from their side and want me to use the amount against other open invoices. Is it possible to use the amount 8862,5 EUR aigainst the other open invoices, how can I do that?  

Hello everyone,We have a business requirement to populate the purchase order line with an additional charge.This charge is not necessarily known when the purchase order is created. It may only become known when the goods arrive or when the supplier invoice is received.If the charge is known upon arrival, we have found that we can use the Incoming Dispatch Advice to generate the receipt and, if necessary, add the charge to the purchase order line. Could someone please explain the main purpose of the Incoming Dispatch Advice? what it is deisgned for? Why wouldn’t we simply create the receipt manually and add the charge manually to the purchase order? The remaining question is how to handle cases where the charge is only known when the supplier invoice is issued and received in IFS. Thank you in advance 

We have two different purchase prices from a few suppliers dependent on which lead time we use.Normal or Express.Do someone have a suggestion on if this is possible to solve somewhat automatically when creating a purchase order?(My thought is to maybe have two different Ship-Via codes in Supply Chain Matrix for Supplier with the Normal and Express lead times. And that Purchase order somehow could use the Ship-Via code as selector for different price lists)

Hi Everyone, Is anyone able to successfully work through the Supersede button in IFS cloud?I think the only way is to go to Purcahse Order handling projection and remove the supersede from the Entity action grants > In action remove the supersedebut it works for few users and for remaining few it doesnt.

Hi Community, Inventory Part in Stock Balance is Not Matching with Ageing Report with totals , any probable reasons ?  Thankss in advance 

Does self billing work with partial receipts or will the invoice generated just be equal to the original PO?

We have quite a few Purchase Orders that will have multiple receipts.We assign purchase order charges in the form of freight and fuel surcharges.Our issue is the PO may come in over several receipts.  The fuel surcharges may change by the time the final receipts are registered.However, if you update the charge price, it updates any receipts that have not been matched and closed.Is there a way to schedule purchase order charge changes so they do not update previous receipts.I.EReceipt 10/30 - Surcharge was 10%Receipt 11/10 - Surcharge was 11%.If receipt from 10/30 is still open and we update the surcharge to 11%, it updates the 10/30 receipt to 11% also.

Hello All, Is there a way to set up an RMA with a disposition step (inspection requirement) to mimic the purchase orders?

Can you please  share  IFS Apps 10 SRM  related documents? ThanksGururaj 

Hi All,In IFS Cloud version, how to correct an incorrect code part value (came through incorrect Pre-posting) without cancelling the purchase receipt?Thank you.

I ran the Calculate Purchase Lead Time function in IFS without updating.  In reviewing the report, it returned a lead time of every part as 1.  Any ideas what I am missing in setup to calculate this properly?

Is there a way in IFS to create forecasting periods starting from a desired date (Ex first Monday of a given year ) rather always starting from the 1st of January 

Running into an error when attempting to use a specific Organization Code and Position on an Authorization Routing Template.As soon as I attempt to release the Purchase Order Authorization Rule, I’m faced with the below error: If I remove the Organization Code and simply enter a “%”, it works, however, that is not the requirement.  The Positions will be shared, but the organizations will be different.For example, a Position may be “Supervisor”, although the organization may be Engineering or Quality.  Items I have already validated:Authorization Limit per Organization Position Employee is connected to Organization and Position Employee is entered also as an Authorizer with adequate authorization amountEnvironment: 24R2 SU2It seems very similar to this previous topic, but that was on Apps 10. Has anyone else run into a similar issue or have suggestions?

Hi Does anyone know why contractor setting enabled parts cannot be included in a purchase requisition?We have to directly create a PO instead starting the process from the purchase requisition?Is there a proper business/IFS reason for this please?Thank you.Regards,Chamath

Hi.When I use Create Order Proposal… Materials on a work task with required date = today is generating a need (a Purchase Requisition is created).But when required date > today, no Purchase Requisition is created.I want to extend the horizon the Create Order Proposal looks to include material need on work tasks within the next 30 days. We are a service company and only need material for work orders.We have a warehouse where we stock the most parts.We do not have the IPR module.IFS Cloud 25R1How can I extend the order proposal horizon to ensure enough stock to cover work orders for lets say 30 days?

Hi, On the inventory part planning data page, you can enter a safety lead time. If we put this one on 10 days, MRP will create a purchase requitions with the receipt date: need date of the part -10 days. However, this does not work for directly created orders (DOP generated purchases, CO with supply code Purch Order Trans). There, the “ordered by” date can be adjusted with entering lead times, but the need date remains the real need of the part. The purchase requisition will take that need date as the “wanted receipt date”, so if we don’t adjust this manually on the PO, the part will arrive on the need date. And we would like to built in some buffer. The parts are not inspected at arrival. We would want that, for example, if our DOP creates a purchase requisition for a part, the wanted receipt date is a few days before the need date of the part. Like the safety lead time for MRP.
