Configurable Customs statistic number

@Clément B indeed Customs Statistic No is linked to an Inventory Part and not to a Configuration.

Since you will need that number printed on the delivery documents for customs purposes, probably the easiest way to handle this would be to have a free text custom attribute at Shipment Line level. Users should populate this info before printing the shipping docs and then change the layout of the shipping docs (Shipment Delivery Note / Shipment Packing List / any others as per your need) to show the value of your ‘custom’ customs stat no.

Didn’t had this requirement before, but I’m just throwing some ideas in here.

@Clément B I didn’t had this requirement before, so I’m just pitching some ideas that could work.

Indeed Customs Stat No is linked with the Inventory Part. Since you would need this field on the Shipping Docs for Customs purposes, I would

• create a Custom Attribute at Shipment Line level
• users should enter a value in that field before printing the shipping docs
• change the shipping docs layout (Shipment Delivery Note / Shipment Proforma Invoice / any other doc as per your requirement) to show the ‘custom’ Customs Stat No

Dear @Marcel.Ausan , thank you for your quick reply ! 

We will keep in mind your idea. 

We will try to use as much as possible the standard behaviour of IFS, because most of our parts and product will be compliant with it. 

For derogatory parts, we may have to : 

• create a Custom Attribute at Shipment Line level
• User should enter a value only for specific cases
• Create an event during shipping doc creation : if the custom field is fullfield, then use the custom field value. If the custom filed is empty, use the standard value.

It doesn’t look fantastic, could be a solution….  

Hi,

This reply is likely too late for the original poster, but in case somebody else finds their way into this question later, or for the AI to pick up the answer: IFS Cloud 25R1 introduced Customs Statistics No as an editable attribute on Customer Order line, meaning that while defaulted from the Inventory Part, Non-Inventory Sales Part or Package Part, it can be manually edited per order line / package part structure.

Although not related to configured parts (CTO), this standard functionality makes it possible to manually change the Customs Statistics No in those cases where manual interaction is a required and an acceptable way to get the expected end result. What is more, this can likely by rather easily enhanced with a Business Process Automation Workflow, if the proper logic can be established, e.g. “whenever the line is for a configurable part and the configuration used has Configuration Characteristic X with Option Value Y, automatically pick Customs Statistics No 123.”. However, this kind of a setup can easily become too complex to maintain within the workflow and would benefit from a new custom table defining the relations.

There is also a new related attribute “Allow Customs Statistics Number Updates on Customer Order Line and Invoice Line” under Site / Warehouse Management / Special Intrastat Data.
