Hello We are investigating the planning logic for an inter-site Distribution Order.SetupDemand Site: AB Supply Site: ZX Supply method: Inter-site Distribution Order Route assigned in the Supply Chain Matrix: Friday only Internal Transport Lead Time: 4 days External Transport Lead Time: 0 Transport Lead Time: 0ScenarioA Distribution Order is created with:Wanted Delivery Date = 27-Oct-2026 (Tuesday)The system automatically recalculates:Planned Delivery Date = 23-Oct-2026 (Friday) Planned Ship Date = 23-Oct-2026 (Friday)We tested both:Customer calendar with weekdays only External transport calendar with weekends includedNeither setup affected the calculation.However, the Planned Receipt Date is still significantly later than the Planned Delivery Date, indicating that the Internal Transport Lead Time is being considered somewhere in the process.Planned Receipt date - 02-Nov-2026(Monday)QuestionIs it standard behavior that the route is evaluated first and the Planned Delivery Date is adjust

Hello,I am experiencing a behavior with Selective MRP in IFS Cloud that I do not fully understand.Context : Parent part: Part Type = Purchased The part has a Structure Type = Manufacturing, alternate  * with status Buildable I run Selective MRP on the parent part.During the first Selective MRP run:MRP is executed for the parent part. The components in the Manufacturing structure are also considered. Dependent demands for other part are visible for the component parts in the MRP information.During the second Selective MRP run, without making any changes to demand, inventory, or product structure data:The dependent demands generated for all the components disappear.Is this the expected behavior of Selective MRP in IFS Cloud?I would expect the same planning results to be generated on each run as long as no relevant data has changed.Has anyone experienced a similar situation?Thank you in advance for your help and feedback.IFS Cloud version: - 25R1 SU0

I am looking for certain suppliers only to only run MRP a couple of days a week. How do I set this up? 

We are currently trying to use the order cover time on a manufactured part by setting it to Planning Method G. We want the demand as seen on MS Level 1 to be assessed over the cover time and used to generate shop order requisitions for the demand within the order cover time. However, Planning Method G only appears to work for Purchased Parts. Has anyone managed to get this work for manufactured parts?

Dear community,Is there a possibility to share the supplier evaluation results with the evaluated supplier ? Or any possibilities we can achieve this ?Thank you

Hello community, We are in IFS Cloud 24R2 and  we would like to upgrade to 25r2 Su9. I have a problem this yhe adjusted demand in forecast demand.The quantity in “adjusted demand” is changed by a process. I can't figure out why this happens or how to prevent it.I get the impression that these changes are related to the qualification task. Thanks for your help.

Can we configure the PO to have a defined quantity tolerance for goods receipts, with a hard limit?For example, if we order 100 boxes and set a ±10% tolerance, the system should allow receipts between 90 and 110 boxes. However, it should automatically prevent the receipt if the quantity is below 90 or above 110.Is there a standard configuration or setting that can enforce this tolerance at the time of receipt?

I have an inter-site flow where a Customer Order at Site A is fulfilled through an Internal Customer Order at Site B.The process is as follows:The original Customer Order is created at Site A. The corresponding Internal Customer Order is processed at Site B. Users at Site B create/process the shipment and print the Shipment Delivery Note. I have a user at Site A who is responsible for the original Customer Order. This user only has access to Site A and therefore cannot access the shipment/delivery note generated at Site B.I would like to know:Is there any standard functionality that allows a user at Site A to access or view the Delivery Note (PDF) generated for the shipment at Site B, without giving the user access to Site B? Alternatively, is it possible to automatically attach the Delivery Note PDF to the original Customer Order at Site A when the Shipment Delivery Note is printed/generated at Site B?Has anyone implemented a similar inter-site scenario in IFS Cloud? If so, what would

We have a customer order with a line that is Purchase Order Direct. The PO created from the line was received. We then needed to return the part to the supplier. An RMA was created for the line but to return to inventory instead of return to supplier. The RMA was completed.Is there a way to do a supplier return of the part from inventory?The RMA cannot be undone. A return to supplier cannot be done from the PO receipt because it was direct delivery. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Hello allI was looking if anybody knows if it’s possible setup some automation that the shipment packing list is printed / emailed automatically after shipment closing to the end customer or a defined email address?

Is it possible to add a procurement clause to a no part line on a PR/PO?I don’t see the option “Procurement Clauses...” on the popup menu when I click on a no part line, it is there for Part Lines only.Why would this be the case?

We are new to export licenses. This is for a UK based company. We have a general use license that is about to expire. It is currently connected to hundreds of customer order lines. I know how we could replace the old license with the new license using the Find and Connect Export License but that is one customer order line at a time. Is there a better way to update the connections to a new export license?

I have a customer planning to do an upgrade to IFS Cloud. Received a question as if IFS supports Digital Product Passport. I see there exists post related to this but I can not find any news in the coming Road map. Anyone have any more updated news about this?

Hi there.How do you guys separate inventory parts that should usually be in stock (on the shelves) and inventory parts that only should be ordered after request?(In IFS Cloud).

Hello everybody,I scanned a PDF delivery notice using AI, and then created an “Incoming Dispatch Advice”.However, I have an issue with the delivery address.Why doesn't it retrieve the correct delivery address?

Hi, what is the standards functionality to track the budget expense, when initiating a Purchase requisition or a purchase order. There are scenarios at customer, where they will be approving their purchase requisitions based on the allocated budget for purchases for the year (as an example, to check if a certain purchase need exceeds the allocated department budget for the year, or how many is remaining etc).  Without going through a project connection, is there a standard functionality to cater this?Thank you

I want to have a Suppliers order email as default selected when press Share on a Purchase order.Is it possible to add a order email on supplier somehow without having to create a person named “Order”?(Today my own email adress gets pre-selected when press share on Purchase order).(Order@supplier.com is not quite a person which seems wrong to create as a person).Guidance of how to setup an order email on a supplier that gets pre-selected on purchase order is welcomed.  IFS Cloud

Has anyone used the Enhanced ATP functionality released in 22R2?  After playing around with this in a reference environment, I’ve noticed some interesting behavior and it appears I may not be grasping some of the intended value by this enhancement. Below are just a few points I’ve seen thus far:Batch Release of Customer Orders It’s only possible to batch Release Customer Order Lines if the Planned Due Date is before or sooner than the Expected Unlimited Supply Date (EUSD) from the Inventory Part.  Why would you not be able to Release Customer Orders after this date?  Isn’t the assumption that all demand could be satisfied in theory after this date? Replanning of Customer Order Line Dates The Replanning feature does modify the Planned Delivery Date at times but only if any incoming Supply is arriving sooner than the EUSD. For example, if the Purchased Lead Time is 6 days (4/3/23) and the EUSD is 14 days (4/11/23). Availability Check will not allow you to enter a Customer Order Line

Has Anyone using available functionalities in IFS on the PPWR regulation in EU? to manage the data such as DoC and material weights? https://packintelx.com/blog/eu-declaration-of-conformity-packaging-manufacturers/

Hi,When I select the quotation request option when creating the supply request from project material lines, it still ends up in a purchase requisition, which only give the possibility to create quotation out of that requisition. It does not automatically create a request for quotation from the project material demand line. It crates the requisition and then the user has to manually convert this to a request for order quotation. Is this the correct behavior? or do I miss any setups here ?Thank you

If we set ‘Site to Site supply chain parameters the ‘Transport Lead Time’ it considered for the PO in demand site. we can see separate Arrival date and Delivery date based on the number of days that we set for Transport Lead Time.But when we set Direct Shipment to Demand Site parameters in ‘Supplier to Site Supply Chain Parameters’ page it is not considering the Transport Lead Time for the PO in demand site.Is there any additional configuration exists in direction shipments to get separate Arrival date and Delivery date?

Hello,We have noticed that the Market Price, Comment and Boccenter fields are missing in many Purchase Orders (POs). When Market Prices are added to the Purchase Orders, the values are neither saved nor displayed in the POs, although we have all this data present in these custom fields.These fields appear empty; however, after performing a hard refresh and re-logging into the application, or after clearing the application cache i.e. 'configuration context mappings cache' and logging-in again, the values become visible.At present, the issue persists in most POs, while the information remains visible in some of the orders.In addition, we are experiencing another issue in the IFS system, where all the data is not loaded properly. Quality Inspection and Document Control information are missing, and multiple page refreshes are required before the data becomes visible. The same behavior is also occurring in the Receipts window.What could be the root cause and the possible solution of these i
