Distribution (CRM, Commerce)

Do we have a functionality in IFS to distribute the shipment charges (Freight) to customer orders for CO invoicing?In our case freight is calculated by a  3rd party tool. 

Hello we have a customer is Mexico that would like ourselves to do VMI with them (we are UK based). Does anyone do this within Apps9? If yes how do they do it? We have looked at Consignment Stock but not sure that this would help in controlling the warehouse charges we will incur for stock in Mexico and clearly seeing transit stock also.Thanks in advance for any insights, Sarah

Is there a way to prevent us from shipping more than what is on the order?

Hello,I hope someone can help me 😊.This is the scenario :When a CO is for the customer XXX, I would like to create a “Purchase Order Direct” , and when it’s a YYY or ZZZ customer i would like to create an “Invent Order” . ( It’s the same sales part )Can we drive the Sourcing rules automatically du to the customer ?These are the setting I made :Create a sourcing rule : With highest rank as Sourcing Objective.Create a sourcing rules per Customer and Sales Part   And this is the error when I create a line on CO : There is also the set up “Sales Part” Sourcing Option, but i’m not interested because it will always give the same choice for every customer. Did someone  know how to setting this properly ?Regards,Nicolas.

I’m creating this post on behalf of a customer which has the following query. Is there a way to set up a Delivery Route for every two weeks for Customer Orders? If we have a Customer that has a Wednesday 4/13 delivery for tomorrow then skips next week with the next delivery on 4/27.  I have tried the Number of Days Before Route Day but that would not allow my 4/13 date.Would we have to set up a Calendar specific for these Customers?

If I’m creating a Lead, I see a field called Stage. How do I set up the basic data so I can use it?So far I’ve found the screens for CRM Process Template, CRM Process, and Default CRM Process, but I can’t figure out how they work together. I want to set up a simple set of stages that apply to every new lead.

Has anyone ever experienced this customer order failure in background jobs:The Customer Order redeploys a Serial tracked Part from Inventory to a Customer.

Hello, Is there a way to create a quotation id prefix that is different than the customer order prefix? Thanks,Mike  

Hi,Since the update from APPS10 UPD8 to APPS10 UPD13 customer order lines of released customer orders are reserved and picking lists are created and printed, although the checkbox "Release for Mtrl Planning" is unchecked.In APPS10 UPD8 these customer order lines were ignored, when pick lists are created.Does anybody know, how to restore the original behavior? Thanks and best regards,Madeleine

HiCreating parts with assortments seem to create a new node to the assortment for each part. Does anybody know what is the point in that? Just makes the whole assortment structure confusing. Matti

HI All, Can I know , when we add chares in PO and its not connected to any lines,than where we can see this cost in transaction history   

Below is a business scenario of a customer. “Until recently, only their distribution has been using the counts screen, and so there's a limit set on the site level which meets distributions requirements. They don't want the limit to be increased.Recently they added the engineers stocks. The issue they are having is a lot of Engineering parts are more than the site limit. So the majority engineering counts are being rejected automatically.Only team leaders and managers have access to go in and manually authorize the counts.They look to find out is if there's any other screens where they can use for authorization and where they can have a higher limit set for the engineer specifically, so that doesn't affect the distribution side.”

I’m trying to convert a Purchase Requisition to a PO in 21R2.  This is something I’ve done many times.  Now, when I try to convert, I’m getting a message that the Tax Code is required.  I’ve tried setting things a bunch of ways and still cannot avoid this message.  The Tax Code field on the PR is also NOT editable so I can’t add it specifically for this item.We’ve recently installed an update but I can’t tell you which one.Does anyone have any ideas for me?Thank youPatrick

Our customer is on Apps10.They seem to have lost many of their customer orders and lines and claim that they never ran the cleanup of customer orders. Is there any known core bug which could accidentally or intentionally delete or remove customer order lines and / or customer orders?The shipment lines still exist and seem to show links to the former customer orders.

Anyone know where I can get some branding standards in IFS? Something that shows logo sizes, color matches, etc? The technical docs only show that you can upload a logo but don’t tell you what size to use, etc. 

Once a PO has been released and the authorization fetched, a change (add tax) can be made to the PO, increasing the value which is not retriggering the fetching of authorization. Leaving a situation where the only approver cannot approve to PO amount. How can I rectify this? 

Is their a secure a way of opening IFS application to the public network ? We are looking for a solution with multifactor authentication and only exposing selected functions.
