Is it possible to make notes mandatory on count per inventory part/Count per count report if the count is rejected due to exceeding tolerance levels?

Hi all,I’m looking for some guidance on how to handle availability controls linked to MRB Head records.We recently introduced a new availability control rule (PACKAGING_QA) to block part movement. While reassigning dependencies, we found that the old rule (“Packaging QA”) is still referenced by several records in MRB Head, so there is no way for me to delete this old rule.The issue is that the MRB Case screens do not provide any option to update the Availability Control ID. However, querying the SQL view mrb_head confirms the old rule is still associated with those records. Has anyone encountered this before, or can advise on the correct IFS approach for this situation? Thanks

We run across the issue sometimes, that a shipment delivery note is not getting printed automatically even though it is set as an optional step in the shipment type: The issue is then that the main customer order (principal structure) remains in Released status instead of switching to delivered.

Hello,Issue Description:When performing Copy Part in IFS Cloud, all general information from the existing part is copied to the new part, including Estimated Cost, Minimum Quantity, Dimensional Quality, Safety Stock, and Lot Size.However, these fields should default to 0 in the new part, as no transactions have been performed on it yet. Instead, the values from the original part are being copied, which is incorrect.Kindly let me know if this is according to IFS standard or if we can fix the issue.Regards,Kruthika

Hallo guys, i have question about Shop Order which generate from Shop Order Requsition result from MRP Perform. Why Shop Order which i generate from Shop Order Requsition still calculate on next Running MRP?This causes the calculation to be doubled, because of the demand from shop orders and MS level 1 

We have observed after updating to 25.2.3 , user was not able to use Supplier LOV in Supplier-Purchase Specification information screen. We have analyzed and raised case with IFS. IFS has responded and accepted this case as most likely a core product error.IFS will release fix as per their policy.  

Hi My customer is heavily using rental assets. In IFS at the moment rental asset planning is quite manual.I saw some customers and partners previously dealt with situations where businesses are heavily using rental fleets. Renal assets can be moved between sites or between companies. How would you normally track the intrasit rental assets, as soon as we ship the assets that rental asset is no longer visible in IFS until it receives back. If it is on rental yes we can track through the customer order but how we can track it when we are moving the assets? So planning team can see these assets are about to recive to X internal company etc.All possible suggestions are welcome.Thanks,Chamath

Hi All,I’m working with a customer who has a large rental fleet.I’m trying to understand how other customers plan their rental fleet in IFS. Right now, assets ownership with (“Company Rental Asset”) or rented from a supplier (“Supplier Rented”) are not planned automatically.The Rental Asset Availability page shows which rental assets are available and their rental duration, but it seems like all planning has to be done manually based on rental demand.I wanted to ask if there is an out-of-the-box solution in IFS to plan rental assets more accurately, or if anyone can share how other rental fleet customers handle this.Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,Chamath

Hi All, Is there any possibility to hide a remote warehouse from the “Ship Goods and Asset” view. We are using remote warehouse as a project location. Once the project is over we ideally wants to hide/remove from the usage.Is there a way to hide specific remote warehouse from the view? Tried following option in warehouse navigator but does not have an impact on here. Did anyone had a similar requirement?Thanks,Chamath

Hi, I would like to get some information about why this issue occurs. It is not reproducible, but I have several orders where it has occurred.The topic is about the status Arrived after receiving from direct delivery.The status is not always present, but the position is set to automatic closing.I am sending the test plan in the attachment.

A. What is your idea?1) ClassificationOpportunity for improvement2) Brief descriptionWhen Part Storage Requirements are entered, a record is automatically created in the Part Dangerous Goods Classification page, as both pages share the same logical unit.Some customers identify dangerous goods that are to be delivered via a shipment when there is a part record created in the part’s dangerous goods classification window and therefore, it is misleading when an automatic record is created in Part Dangerous Goods Classification page when storage requirements are entered.Ideally, Part Storage Requirements and Part Dangerous Goods Classification pages should work independently.B.

When I use the milestone/staged payment, my invoices doesn’t shows up in “Invoiced Purchase Orders”. My order P8933 is using Milestones and these lines are matched with the supplier invoices. As seen below lines are in state “Invoiced”:But when looking in “Invoiced Purchase Orders”, this order will not show up. Only orders which I have matched using a receipt/arrival are there. The PO is received and closed. Am I doing something wrong? 

Hi,After we input consumption reference, where can find the data?Thanks. 

Hi there.  We are in the process of the IFS implementation, and we were told that the only place to set up a substitute for a PO authorizer while they are on PTO is on the “Purchase Authorizer Substitutes” screen.  However, we want the authorizer to be able to go in and set up their own substitute for when they are on PTO, and if we give all the authorizers access to the “Purchase Authorizer Substitutes” screen, then they could edit other people’s substitutes.  So two questions:Is there any other screen besides “Purchase Authorizer Substitutes” where an authorizer could set up their substitute?If not, is there any way to lock down the screen so that an authorizer can only change their own record? Thanks!

I always avoided this situation and used MRP Spare Parts Forecast for the lower level forecasts.  Ideas?  Thoughts?  Cautions?

Dear Experts, I am working in the 25.2.1 environment and noticed that the Customer Order Load List is no longer available, even though it existed in older versions. Has this function been removed, or is there an alternative way to perform that task?24.1.4 - Window 24.1.4 - IFS Doc Regards Yukthila

We have an intercompany setup, meaning we enter all customer orders in 1 site (principal) for the external customer and order the parts from our internal supplying sites (intercompany sites) with supply code “Int Purch Dir”.As we use the Supply Chain Matrix for customer, we populate different external transport leadtime onto the customer order line, because depending on the customer’s location we have different transport times from each internal site.Pain point: When we release a customer order it passes down the external transport leadtime from the order lines to the order lines on the internal customer order.Is there any way to prevent that?

Hello,My customer has this error message when he tries to issue a reserved material line : “ The quantity reserved for part XXX on site XXX at location XXX should not be negative.” Thanks for your help. 

Dear community,  we have IFS Cloud and what we want to do, before GO-LIVE date, is to print the labels for all the materials to mark them with IFS codes accordingly.  This we can do only once the goods are admitted into the warehouse (within the test environment). Is there any way to print the labels for the materials without having to stock it in? Can I add the location to the inventory part and print it anyway? Thank you for your response,Best RegardsPetaKu

A. What is your idea?1) ClassificationOpportunity for improvement2) Brief descriptionCurrent self-service procurement functionality using punchout catalogues only supports No Part Line creation in the shopping cart resulting in PR with no part lines. There are instances (mainly seen in the Mining Industry) where the products selected from the punchout catalogues are in IFS as inventory purchased parts with supplier part numbers defined in the Supplier for Purchase Part records. Once the PR is converted to PO and the goods are receipted, they need to be put away into inventory. In these cases, the PO receipts are not considered as just expense but as inventory value. Supplier Agreements too can exist with these suppliers, and they are also not considered in the current functionality. Therefore, when the shopping cart from the supplier’s webshop to IFS, if part lines can be added to the IFS sho

In our Apps 10 environment we use MS Level 1 to enter the Master Schedule Forecast.   We have the site manufacturing calendar set up for a 5-day work week starting on a Monday and ending on a Friday.  We are able to enter a forecast date of a Saturday but not a Sunday.  Why are we able to enter a forecast date of a Saturday when Saturday is not a workday?  We also have an exception ID for our holiday days.  We are also able to enter to enter a forecast date on a holiday day, why?   The example below has allowed a forecast date of 7/1/2023, which is a Saturday.  It also allowed a forecast date of 9/1/2023, which is on the holiday exception as a non-workday.
