Has anyone out there recently started having problems with communicated PO’s not showing PDF copies of PO’s on the B2B Supplier Portal? Everything for us was working fine for years until recently. Now, when our puchasing department communicates a PO, it may or may not send the PDF of the PO to the portal. It happens randomly and it hard to reproduce. If a user goes back into a failed PO and re-communicates the PO, it will work without anything having changed otherwise. It can happen at any time of the day, to any user, and to any supplier. We recently patched IFS and, coincidentally, this is about the timeframe when the problem started, though we can’t say for sure that is related.
In the Purchase Order page, is it possible to turn off the message that appears when you modify the receipt date of a line on the PO? See attached image. We have PO’s with dozens of lines, and if they are modified, the user has to answer the message for every line. Is there a way to just ask this one for the PO or have it defaulted to a certain answer, or choose to turn it off?
In the Parts Order Lines tab of a Purchase Order, there is a column called “Inv Conv Fact”. Additional information for this column states, “This field displays the conversion factor between the purchase unit and the inventory unit. The formula is as follows: Purchasing unit = inventory unit * purchasing conversion factor.” We have a part which has a problem in its setup and is creating an Inv Conv Fact of 174 in this column. I’ve tried to research where the inventory unit and puchasing conversion factors are but I’m not finding them. Does anybody know where these are?
HelloEasy question, I think. I’m using APS10 Update 16 and troubleshooting the setup of a maintenance user that can’t be set as a resource in the resource allocation dialog. IFS help is asking me to check Scheduling Basic Data but I can’t find it anywhere. All items in my navigator are unhidden. Is it called something else in my version?
Hello,We’ve changed some of our parts to be Primary Supplier Transit on their Sales Part Record. We have Customer Orders currently in the Planned state that contain these parts. I had assumed that if I change the Supply Code of these parts on the Customer Order to be Purch Order Trans, that their PO’s would be automatically created when the job was released. I’m finding that this is not the case. Automatic PO creation was working in our TEST environment if I created a new Customer Order with the changed parts on them and then released the Customer Order. The automatic PO creation just doesn’t seem to be working on Customer Orders that were already created before the parts’ Sales Part sourcing option was changed. Anybody have any ideas?
We just applied a patch (IFS10 - Update 6)to our DEV environment and subsequently lost a lobby in our B2B Supplier Portal. The lobby is Order Management for Suppliers. The lobby is present in the IFS EE Lobby Overview like it never left. I just need to pull it into the B2B Portal but can’t figure out how to do it. Any help would be appreciated.
We’ve been live with the B2B Supplier Portal for a couple of years. When we started, we created a new permission set for our suppliers based on B2B_SUPPLIER but with limited permissions. This, or some other restriction, prevented the suppliers from uploading documents into the PO’s on the portal. If they try to do so, they are presented with an error that says, “Your system administrator has not granted permission to complete that action.”. Now, we are being asked to turn on the functionality which allows a supplier to upload a document in the portal. I can’t find out where or how to do this. I don’t even know if it is in the permission set B2B_SUPPLIER. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?
Is there a way to allow users to create fault reports but prevent them from entering the "prepare work order" page?
Hello, Our finance department is attempting a cost roll on some new parts and they are receiving this error: “The sum of the quantity on hand and the supplies does not cover the demands.” Any ideas? Is this a part setup issue or may that the materials used in the product structures are not set up correctly?
