Hi Team, Client requirement is to use Planning Method-B for automatic replenishment of inventory.Please find the query below:Lets say, an inventory part (Purchased Part Type) is stored in a Warehouse having multiple Bins.Now during auto replenishment, how system will identify automatically which is the correct Bin to refill as Warehouse contains multiple Bins?By any chance, can the same be reflected during Register Arrivals process?Do we need to do any specific setup for it?@Thilini Wijesinghe Any inputs on this?Best Regards,Rakesh

We have a CTO Part that is large and when completed will not fit onto a single mode of transportation.Can we, once received on the Shop Order, disassemble into shipping handling units (i.e.4) and then ship each of the shipping handling units as separate shipments with Customer Oder Quantity of 1 or how can we ship on four trucks at .25 for each shipment?Other suggestions?

Hi, We got few suppliers with delivery dates for specific days of week. Is it possible to set up IFS to create purchase order requisition only for specific days of week? So far I do not see that option in Cloud.  Thank you, Lukasz   

Hi Team, This is related to a warehouse which is set as a remote warehouse. in this there are 2 picking locations exists, one is 25DO and other is 25L. when we set the drop off location to 25DO and run the transport task, system is created a transport task but without considering the forward to location and when we execute this, new transport task line is not created automatically. And if we set the drop off location to 25L instead to 25DO, system is working as expected. When we create manual transport task, system is working as expected.Do anyone have any idea why this happened?    

HiDoes IFS have any kind of approval process for changes to supplier bank accounts. We are searching for a method, where two users must approve a change of a bank account, before it is being valid to use.

I am trying to pare down what an LTU licensed Shop Floor User can see when they log into IFS.  I have created a context in which the user cannot see anything on the left nav bar except for the Shop Floor Work Bench, and then I want to create another context in which the user can only see certain command buttons on the Workbench screen.  Can a user have more than 1 context assigned to them, and if so, does one take priority over another?  How many contexts can a user have?

There seems to be two areas for basic data for Contact Roles within IFSCloud 23.1.11. Relationship Management > Customer Relationship Management > Basic Data > CRM Contact RolesandApplication Base Setup > Enterprise > Basic Data > Contact Roles What is the purpose of the two datasets? Within Customer Contacts, role can be selected and this considers Basic Data. Within Sales Quotation process role can be selected and this considers CRM Contact Roles. I’d expect both to consider the same dataset.

In our metal shop, we’re attempting to optimize raw material by producing parts that will consume full steel sheets. As an example, if we are producing A123, Quantity 50, we want to automatically produce Quantity 50 of B123. These two parts/quantities can be produced on one sheet of sheet. We looked at the byproduct receipt function, however we do not think that will work. To us, the byproduct receipt function is more for donuts and donut holes. If you are making a donut, you simply punch out the center and you have your finished product. In our example with steel the byproduct needs additional operations.We looked into setting it up in the structure, howev

Hi All,From a customer, I received a requirement for organize a fixed delivery day from the supplier. Suppose for a supplier the fixed delivery day is marked on Wednesday, they want to realise the following:MRP must be create Purchase Requisition for this supplier with a Wanted delivery date always on a Wednesday.  If the supply date is in week 10 - Tuesday, the system must calculate forwards to give a purchase requisitions with wanted delivery date on week 9 - Wednesday.I checked the route ID but this is only related to the customer orders.Does anyone have an idea how to solve this in standard ifs?

I am new to Authorizations in IFS and I am trying to understand exactly how it chooses what rules to apply when routing for approval.  I see that the first step is to add the user to Invoice Posting Authorizers and a Group if needed.  I see that you can assign a Max amount on the Authorizer, but I also see a Authorization Combination Rule that can also be applied.  Which one is used?  I also see that you can apply a Group or User to a Authorization Assigning Rule that you can also assign rules and dollar amounts to the rule.  I don’t understand what each does.Max amount on Posting Authorizers. Authorization Combination Rule ID Authorizer Assigning RulesWould love to understand this better so I can setup my company to follow our DOA.   Thanks in advance.Bob

How the authorizations can be delegated to another person in case the main authorizer is on leave?

On the Request Screen, we populate the search criteria and then select Seatch.My question is there an option for the retrieved Requests to be auromatically order descending by created date?

Good day.  Is it possible to link more than one CC to an Org Unit, and if so, how do you do it?  Thank you.

Hello,This is my first time at adding a custom page in IFS but I’m encountering an issue.I built a custom page that is fully set up with a custom projection and custom entity. It behaves exactly as expected and desired in the application config>custom pages section of IFS Cloud. It’s also fully deployed.When I add it to the navigator, using the same CustomerPriceMatrixPage, it comes up with 404 page not found.The navigation properties are probably incorrect, as I’ve seen the client default to ‘MpccomNavigator’ but the same result occurs when that is set

I have updated my cloud environment to 23R2. On DBInstaller and MTinstaller, no errors were found. However, when I log into the application, I face the following error:  IFS Web Version: 23.1.0.20230508120848.0Date: 2023-12-22T17:48:46.870Z---------------------------------------------------------------------------<none>/<none> (server error)Metadata not found.Error details: N/ARequest Id: abec0d4f-1f1f-4fcc-8b05-bf24424ef393Url: https://xx.xxxx.bx.internal.cloudapp.net/main/ifsapplications/projection/v1/RemoteAssistanceHandling.svc/IsUserActive(FndUserId='IFSADMIN')---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I created IAL Object and tried to use in IFS-BR. Not sure why my parameter (img.4) does not get displayed as a dropdownlist field where users can select available values instead of inputting values. 

Hello, I’m in 23R1 and seeing some unexpected behaviour with MS Level 1 parts when I run Site level MRP. I have 20 Manufactured parts that are MS Level 1 parts. Create S/P is set to create S/P Entire Horizon and when I run the MS calculation, everything works as I expect and Shop Order Requisitions are generated. If I then run selective MRP based on the Planner these parts share, the demand flows down and MRP generates Purchase Requisitions for the component parts. However, if I run MRP for the entire Site, MRP generates a handful of Shop Orders for the MS Level 1 parts. I did some investigating and this seems to happen if the on-hand quantity is below the safety stock. If I Re-Run MS after this, the MRP generated requisitions are then deleted. Is this a bug? The parts are top-level sales parts and not in any other structures.  Requisitions Generated by both MS & MR

Hi All, I’m interested in the ‘best practice’ way to use Shop Order Auto Processing for MS Level 1 parts. I’m in 23R1. I have a set-up where we use Auto Processing to covert the MS generated SORs within the PTF. This is because we have several routing alternates for each SO and the planners are working from the Visual Capacity Planning Screen to ensure all work centers are fully utilized. The planners resolve the overloads primarily by changing the routing alternate, so need to work with SOs rather than SORs. The work centers have different costs, speeds & resource shares, so we moved away from using multiple resources in one work center. The Auto Processing job works great most of the time and saves a lots of clicks. However, I hadn’t realized if for any reason the Shop Order needs to be deleted/cancelled, the original SOR remains in place and still shows as planned supply. As we have the S/P setting to Create S/P Req &amp

Referencing this post from 3 years past:   Since it's been three years since this post was made, has IFS introduced a link between the original drop-off task and the forward to task? In other words, basically, within IFS today, on the second transport task is there's a reference number to the original task?
