Hi,

 

From a DOP, we can net into a inventory supplied purchase order. However, only if that order is in a planned or released status. Once it’s confirmed, IFS will not net it. You can manually peg it, but no netting.

 

Is this normal behaviour, or somewhere a setting? It doesn’t sound logical to me why IFS skips confirmed purchase orders in the netting proces?

Its looks like the designed behavior, please create an idea in the community to consider other Status in netting.

Hi Dameenda,

 

thanks for your feedback!

 

Any idea what’s the business logic behind this? A confirmed PO is just saying that date and price are correct.. So it’s even better from a DOP perspective: you’re sure that it will be on time. You’re more sure then when it’s planned or released..

 

Why does IFS block this?

 

Best regards!

Hi ;

I feel this is a short-sighted decision during the development, cannot think of possible reason for not allowing this.
