Hello,We are producing a part in UoM = PC. To manufacture that part, we are outsourcing operations on the shop order for:transport  manufacturing processBoth are assigned with an outside operation items for which the purchase requisitions are generated upon shop order release. Those are then converted into purchase orders and upon arrival of the physical items, we receive all of them and close the shop order.Items on the shop order are in UoM = PC, Outside operations items are a non-inventory parts (paying for the service) however one of the suppliers for the manufacturing process is charging us and sending an invoice per kg for one of those outside operation items (manufacturing process)Question/Problem to Solve: Is it possible to have purchase order for this non-inventory part in UoM = kg, but receiving it in UoM=PC on the shop order? How to solve this differentiation?Goal: We need to be able to issue orders for outsourced manufacturing process in the supplier's billing unit, that is

Hi Experts,We have created monthly forecast and used EAC workbench to transfer budgeted cost from one WBS activity to another and used Increase Budget amount. successfully managed to update the status to EAC Transferred on the Monthly Forecast. The monthly forecast is then approved.Now if the monthly forecast becomes the basis for Budget update. We need to create a revised budget with reference to the Monthly forecast using copy from forecast option.The forecast assistant ends in error - Project Forecast cannot be set to Reviewed when EAC workbench is in Progress. Why is it taking the revised budget version to Reviewed? it should attempt to create it in Preliminary status and let the user update it. This is in IFS Cloud 24R2Did anyone experienced this, and if yes, how are you updating the project budget? Manually?  

We are excited about digitizing the purchase return process. Currently, I am familiar with two return types: return for rework and return for credit.My question is, what happens next when "return for credit" is selected as the return reason? Does the system automatically generate a supplier credit invoice, or must users manually create the credit and link it to the supplier shipment?If anyone has complete documentation on this process, sharing it would be greatly appreciated.

Since Project Delivery is no longer available in IFS Cloud and now there are IFS customers preparing for the upgrade from IFS9 and IFS10 towards IFS Cloud we are having questions raised by the customer and by ourselves as an IFS Partner. Benefits & Differences:What are the (new) benefits of Project Deliverables compared to Project Delivery? What are the key differences of Project Deliverables compared to Project Delivery?Upgrade path and considerations:I have found another post that mentions how the data is handled. Basically it is stored for historical history purposes but there is no transformation path to the new solution. How is Project Delivery data handled when upgrading to Cloud | IFS CommunityCustomers will have ongoing IFS Project Delivery projects, what is needed to continue with the running projects as IFS Project Deliverables projects?  Has anyone have done this upgrade project and would you share your experiences so we can learn from it? Does IFS R&D has an stateme

Hi Community, I’m looking for the way to set default value for “supply option” on project deliverables.When I generate project deliverbile, default value of supply option (e.g. purhcase/MRP) is set to components. Does anyone know how this default vaule of supply option is set? Best,Kohei Okigami 

Hi all,I am planning to upload a part creation template as an external file and one of the parameters which has been decided is the Site. This is not in the .csv upload, but rather in the assistant.Is it possible to put multiple values into the parameter in order to facilitate multiple external file transactions like the following?ie. Site = SITE1;SITE2;SITE3

Hi,When the contractor done the Reports in B2B, we can see these as Cost lines in the work Task. Then how we can create the supplier invoice for paying the supplier? Shoud we create a manual PO ading a Purchase parts and receive the PO then invoice it? This seems not very linked all manual processes? Thank you,,KM

We are planning to upgrade our Apps10 PROD environment to the Remote Deployed 23R2 Cloud Setup soon and I want to clarify if IFS has any restrictions or suggestions NOT TO USE Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Express with the Cloud DB.

Hi,We are looking at options on how to control custom codes on the PO level and based on what i can see this can be done by enabling the “Customs Import Declaration Number on Receipt”. Does anyone know if this functionality is working with other locations or only India, and does someone have a good way of adding Customs Information (HTS, COO, Custom Status) at the time of receiving a PO?

I am about to enter a large manual voucher using the External Voucher Assistant. Once it is created and before it is posted I need to make the voucher interim. Does anyone have the steps to do that. Thanks in advance.

Good morning, The technicians' shifts are generally 5/7 from 7 am to 5 pm.However, every week, some technicians have a shift composed of standard shift + on-call-On-call: (from 00.00 to 7.00) + (from 17.00 to 00.00) (Monday/Friday)-On- call: Saturday and Sunday: on-call (00.00 to 00.00).Shifts must be split up and separated from standard shifts, while during on-call hours tasks can only be assigned manually. (MANUAL_SCHEDULING_ONLY)How can I manage this in PSO, as I have visibility of the shifts in DC/PSO? My understanding is that the on-call=yes function does not allow me to do this and I thought I could handle this by creating shift deviations. Doing this for each resource once a week seems very time-consuming and not very smart.Is there a better and faster way? Is it a correct way? 

I received this question in a private message: Can you think of a solution, on how to prevent the system from issuing new WDR beyond maximum shelf life?Example Scenario:A bag of chocolate chips is received with a 1-year expiry when sealed.After opening, it must be used within 2 months.A WDR Change - Receipt updates its expiry from 12 months to 2 months.Now, WADACO and IFS prioritize using this stock first.example: A bag of chocolate chips is received with a 1-year expiry when sealed. It stayed in the warehouse for 11 months, it has one 1 month left. When moved, the system might change the date to 2 months because is opened. How to make sure it will give only the maximum shelf life inherited from the original date?When stock is moved or repackaged, we want IFS to apply a new shelf life based on its status change (e.g., from sealed to opened). However, if the item is already close to expiration (e.g., 11 months into a 12-month shelf life), the system should not assign a new expiry date t

Hi All, I wonder if anyone of you Heroes and Doers have good and effective solution to the problem, same time not causing overloading the system.   In some cases, WDR is used to change the expiration date. A raw material, has a maximum shelf life when sealed—let’s say 1 year. However, once opened, it remains fresh for only 2 months. How to prevent the system from issuing new WDR beyond maximum shelf life? Example Scenario:A bag of chocolate chips is received with a 1-year expiry originally sealed. When a product is received in the warehouse, it has assigned an expiration date based on its full shelf life. This date is stored in IFS under the batch/lot information.When is being moved from Stores location to floor location, system will treat it as opened, and to be be used within 2 months. A WDR Change - Receipt updates its expiry from 12 months to 2 months.A bag of chocolate chips is received with a 1-year expiry when sealed. It stayed in the warehouse for 11 months, it has one 1 month

In Apps 10, the observation is that when entering a new customer order line for a Sales part number that has a Sales Part Cross Reference record (with customer part number and customer part number description), the Sales Part Description on Customer Order Line gets populated with the Customer’s Part Description instead of the description on the Sales Part record.Can you advise if this is the intended functionality and whether this can be controlled via a setting?Thanks
