Hi,

We have two sites within the same company that do a lot of inter-site business.  Site A makes a controller that site B integrates into their product and sells the package to the customer.  Site A wants to recognize some margin when they transfer the controller to site B, in a sense selling it to site B at a markup.  I’m familiar with other systems where you can add a surcharge or a warehouse transfer charge which could accomplish this, or even define a warehouse transfer pricelist.  Is there anything similar in IFS Apps 10?  We’ve struck out so far as to how to accomplish this short of making both sites companies, which is not ideal.

We just, for the first time, enabled a Charge row on the Customer (available since Apps8). 
We are using a percentage of the order value, rather than a fixed value. 
Is the ‘Customer’ for Site B only supplied by Site A? If so then this could work, otherwise you might try a Custom Event Action to add a charge row to Customer Order for ‘Customer’ Site B when the Site of the Customer Order is A.

    Thanks Thom, that sounds like a possible solution!  We’re going to try it out with our consultants.  Really appreciate the response.  To answer your question, no, site B being supplied by A is only one of the possibilities, it’s just the only one so far that needs a “markup” charged to.  So we’ll likely have to pursue the custom event.
