Hello, I would like to import json file to create record in Incoming Dispatch Advice window and I would like to know what is the correct format of json file/what fields are mandatory etc, because I still got error 400. I checked documentation and only one field Receiver id is set as required, what obviously is not enough :) Thank you Romana

Hello, I hope you are doing well. My customer, using infinite capacity and  is requesting to automate the scheduling of shop orders in a specific order (after running MS Level 1), using two criteria:Items with characteristic A must be scheduled before Items with characteristic B that must be scheduled before Items with characteristic C. The shop orders must be produced in a gradual manner, items of 10 cm of width before 12 cm width before 14 cm width, etc.Do you have any idea how I could implement it?Best regards, Laura

I set a line to Picked by using Order Line Details → Report Reserved Quantities as Picked.No Shipment has been created, no delivery posted, and nothing else was progressed.Now I need to revert the line back to Released.What I tried: Right-click on the Customer Order Line → couldn’t find any “Unpick” or similar action. On the Customer Order header right-click, I expected to see Undo Reserve and Picking…, but this option is not visible in our menu. In Package Part Structure (the line is a package part), I also don’t see any menu to reverse the picked status—neither on header nor on component lines. Questions: What is the standard way to reverse “Report Reserved Quantities as Picked” and return the CO line to Released when no

Hi, to my knowledge GAEB is used to communicate with different stakeholders especially for biddings in the german building industry.The customer is creating invitations to bid. These can be imported with X83 standard. The supplier is sending his bid with the x84 standard. Has someone experience with this? To my understanding the rules for the creation of x84 are highly complex and I would not recommend an interface with x83/x84 standard. I would prefer an interface to a software which does the importing/exporting of x83/x84. And I do not see BOOMI to do it but a specialised software for GAEB.What do you think?Thank you,Sarah

Hello,I am working with a customer that associates forklifts in a warehouse with specific areas within a warehouse. For instance, if a given area in the warehouse may not be large enough to accomodate a forklift of a specific size, then it will not allow a warehouse worker to be assigned to that task involving that location if the warehouse worker is associated with the forklift.Essentially, the equipment becomes a variable in determining whether the warehouse task can be assigned to a given worker. Has anyone encountered this requirement? Does anyone have any ideas on how this might be managed in the software? Julian White

Hi Everyone,I’m looking for guidance on whether there is an alternative way to perform a drop shipment (direct delivery) in IFS Cloud from supplier to external customer without using a customer order as a demand.Business Scenario- The client is using the Projects and Service modules, where demand is generated through these modules. Based on this demand, the supplier ships the items directly to the customer, subcontractor, or technician trucks.Specifically, is it possible to handle drop shipment based on project demand or a service request, rather than creating a customer order? If so, I’d appreciate any insights on recommended setups, processes, or best practices.Thank you in advance for your support.Kind regards,Nirushi

Dear IFS R&D Team,We are currently using IFS APP10 Transport Order solution to manage goods movements between onshore and offshore sites. As we plan to move to IFS Cloud next year, we are evaluating the Shipment Order solution (25R2).During this evaluation, we identified several gaps in IFS Cloud compared to the APP10 Transport Order functionality. We would appreciate your advice on available workarounds and whether these gaps are planned to be addressed in future releases.1. Movements within the same site In APP10, Transport Orders support bulk movement of parts (including project materials) between onshore–onshore or offshore–offshore locations.In IFS Cloud, this is not supported via Shipment Orders, and Move Inventory Part is not suitable for bulk moves. Can Transport Tasks be used instead? Do Transpor

I am in the process of introducing kanban-circuits for a certain product line of ours. The Product Structures contain some parts with serial tracking “At Receipt and Issue”.If we want to satisfy the serial tracking, we need to scan the parts somewhere in the process.If that happens in the assembly line, we can use kanban-circuits but we lose time in manufacturing, because scanning of some of the parts is not trivial.If the scanning happens in the warehouse, we can not use kanban and we create work in the warehouse, which we wanted to relieve by introducing kanban in the first place.Does anyone have experience with kanban/serial tracked parts and ran into a similar problem?How did you solve it?

Hello, We hold an inventory part on 2 sites within the same company. The part is held in a different UoM on each site due to operational requirements.The part is a purchased part on Site A. We sometimes have a requirement to move some of it from Site A to Site B.I have set up an Input UoM Group and assigned the part to it.On Site B the part number will be different to the different U0M. What is the best way in IFS Cloud to execute the stock movement from Site A to Site B so that Site B receives the correct part number and UoM into inventory?  e.g. transport task? shipment order?We are on Cloud 25R1. Thank you!

Hi IFS Team,My Customer has an Intersite Flow (Supply Site sending product to Demand Site).The Supply Site sells the product to the Demand Site at cost + 15%.  We are planning on using a Sales Price List for the “Cost”; and a Sales Overhead for the 15%. It appears to work well.The Problem is: How can we ensure the “Supplier for Purchase Part” at the Demand Site is also in sync with the Sales Price from the Supply Site?  I was thinking to use the MHS Messaging PRICAT to send pricing from Supply Site to Demand Site, but I wonder if there is an easier way to do this.Thank you,

Hi,I am looking for advice on a situation I am facing.My customer works mainly in welding and coating. Their project sites are often far away from the main warehouse site. Because of this, I want to keep welding and coating stock at the customer’s project location.My idea is to create remote locations and move stock from the warehouse to these remote locations using shipment orders.When the remote location is in the same country as the site, this works fine.However, I am having a problem when the remote location is in another country.In that case, customs clearance is required, and I need a proforma invoice. I am not sure how to create a proforma invoice when the shipment order is created directly from Inventory.The PO–CO process does not work here because the project location belongs to the same company. Also, I cannot create a new site every time there is a new project.How would you handle this situation?Do I need to cre

Hi Community,We are planning to implement and execute the MRP (Material Requirements Planning) setup for a specific site in our company using IFS Applications 10.As an Industrial Engineer, I am well-versed in the theoretical concepts, but this will be my first time executing the practical application within IFS. I need your experience to ensure the process runs smoothly and generates accurate purchase/production proposals.Could you please share your suggestions on the following topics? Data Preparation: Apart from Safety Stock, Lead Times, and Planning Methods (A, B, etc.), what are the "must-check" essential parameters on the "Inventory Part > Planning" tab? Calendars: What is the impact of Distribution and Manufacturing calendars on MRP? What kind of issues can an incorrect calendar setup cause?

Hi everyone,If there are inventory parts that currently have an on-hand quantity in stock, what are the available options to remove or clear those quantities from the system?Could you please share the recommended approaches or best practices (for example, adjustments, transactions, or any standard processes) to handle this scenario?Thanks in advance for your support and insights. 

Hi,I would like some advice on best practices that your company follows.My customer’s main business is rentals. The company owns equipment and rents it to customers. The equipments are often shipped to other companies in different countries for customer projects.I am facing a situation where equipment is rented to another company in a different country. This is an intercompany rental.We can create a customer order with a rental line from the supply site and ship it to the demand site. However, I am not sure how customs clearance is handled in this case.When clearing customs, the receiver may need to show customs documents. The customer order provides a proforma invoice with only the rental value, not the full equipment value.In rental cases, does the receiver use the rental proforma invoice as the import value? Or do we need to create a separate manual proforma invoice showing the full equipment value?How is this usually handled in th

Is it possible to select multiple internal customer orders and send order confirmations via MHS at the same time?

Hi Team,I processed a customer order using a 'Purchase Direct Supply' code. However, during the RMA process, the stock was received at my site instead of being returned directly to the supplier.Since these are non-inventory purchases, how can I return the stock to the supplier from my location? 

Within Warehouse Tasks and Task Priorities, Help suggests twice that Warehouse Task Priority can come from the Task Source (assume the Customer Order) before the Default Priority from the Task Type is fetched.  “The priority of the warehouse task can be received from the different sources of warehouse tasks at the time of creation, dependent on such the varying importance of different customer order lines. It can also be set from the default priority value entered for every different type of task in the warehouse task type setup. Priority is an important component of all the business logic created around the information of the warehouse task, including needs for sorting rows according to priority order.” And; “Priority - The priority is a numerical value valid from 1 to 99999 where value 1 means the highest priority. The attribute is mandatory; a valid priority number must be entered for each task type. It s

 Can anyone advise why PrePosting on Material Req has this ‘double pop up’ thing going on in 24R1, please?  I create a new Mat req, save the header.  PrePosting pane pops up.  I enter an Account Code and then the ‘Edit’ panel pops up.  In 23R1 the Preposting Panel just popped up and we entered Account, Cost Centre and Brand details there?  V clunky workflow now … unless I’m missing something?   Thanks.

We currently use the Purchase Order Delivery Reminders and Purchase Order Confirmation Reminders functions to print reminders. It’s possible to run test prints to check the current templates, and bulk printing works as expected. From what I understand, email handling can also be managed from these views if the functionality is properly configured.At the moment, the process seems semi-automatic, as some manual steps are still required to send emails. Has anyone successfully configured this to make the process more automated?Modifying existing templates is not a major issue, but before making changes, we’d like to hear how others have approached this globally.Do you have any tips or best practices for streamlining this process? Are there recommended settings or configurations to minimize manual work?
