Batch Close PO Lines

Hi All, I am looking for a way to close PO lines in batch that have been received fully and previously closed but then reopened again to update line information such as purchase groups. This causes the PO to remain open which we do not want. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Prioritize stock rotation - Inventory Parts

Hello,When running a report for aging parts from our Inventory Parts in stock page, we have multiple duplicate parts that were received on different lot batch No’s. Is there a way to prioritize shipping the oldest part received to cancel out some of these duplicate lines? I’ve noticed from this report that we will sometimes ship out a part from a newly received purchase order meaning we have an older part sitting on the shelf in the meantime. Thank you,

Apps9 block user from raising PO on a supplier

To all you clever IFS folk,Is there anywhere in the supplier set up that you can block the user from raising a Purchase Order (PO)? I know you can make the supplier inactive on the invoicing tab but this does not stop a user from raising and releasing a PO on the supplier? We are wanting an easy way with new suppliers to allow their setup and stop orders being placed until all QA documentation has been received. We are on our journey to Cloud but ideally need something we can put in place in Apps9 asap.Thanks Sarah

Warehouse Task Cancelled and Transport Task Executed

Hi,Why there are cases where the Warehouse Tasks are in Status Cancelled and the Transport Tasks are executed? In theory, if the Transport Task is Executed, shouldn't the Warehouse Task inherit this information and become in Closed status?What is the difference between the Warehouse being Cancelled or Closed, if the TT is already Executed?Best regards,Luísa Quintas

How to use "Parts" tab on sales campaign?

I’m testing out sales campaigns in IFS Cloud (24R1) and wondering how the “parts” tab needs to be set up on the sale campaign in order to pull its price (or discount) on an applicable customer order line. Is the sales price/curr on the part line supposed to be independent of the sales part base price value i.e the user can enter in any value? I entered in a price on the line, and expected the value to be pulled into my CO line, except my price source is still from the sales part. The coordinators on the CO and campaign are also the same as well as the sales period. I can get the promotions tab functioning, just this one is baffling me. Any help would be appreciated.

Missing Group/Sum option in IFS Cloud. Will this be included in a release in the near future?

Is Group/Sum option in Advanced Search functionality available in IFS Cloud version? There are several topics posted covering this topic. As the below entries were few years old, I was hoping something might have changed in between. Can I know that, will this Group/Sum option included in upcoming cloud version. If it is already available, is there any material on how this is done?Missing Group/Sum option in IFS Cloud #GSDTECH# | IFS CommunityAdvanced search (i.e. group, count, sum, etc) | IFS Community One of IFS customers has raised this question again and In App9 & App10 user had the possibility to conduct advanced searches by grouping values and summarizing values in table views. They wants to know whether this will be included in a release in the near future. Business Impact: User will have to use longer methods to find information that is required.

Cycle Counting - Cloud

Does anyone have a great grasp on cycle counting within cloud? I used to do it within Epicor and it seems much easier than how IFS does it. Specifically locking inventory on parts and specific moment, not just when they are added to a count report. We are counting 50 parts a day for the rest of the year and I am hoping to make it as quick and painless as possible. David

And then also i changed the mandatory characteristics (YES >NO) it still gives me the option to choose from hidden characteristic values from list of values. Can someone tell me the functionality of the validity value “Hidden”. Thank You.

Limit location to a single part

Is there a way to limit locations to a single part?Specifically, when a location has been picked to empty, nothing else should be receipted into that location apart from the original part. Is there any way to achieve this in APP9?

Make Maintenance Aware in wrong company

Part Serial can be connected to a Rental Fixed AssetYou can make a Part Serial ‘Maintenance Aware’ and by doing so create a Serial ObjectThis Serial Object can be connected to a Fixed Asset Now our general approach is to make Maintenance Aware in the same company that owns the Fixed Asset. How can I correct it if a user has manually made a Part Serial Maintenance Aware in a wrong company? E.g.Fixed Asset owned in France Part Serial linked to this Fixed Asset Part Serial Make Maintenance Aware > you can choose in which company For this particaul car it is wrongly 1001 while it should have been 1011 Denys France SAS, then the Serial Object should be connected to the Fixed Asset A791100003 in 1011
