Can we block a purchase part in IFS so that, these blocked parts are no longer appearing the the purchase part catalogue when trying to create a Purchase requisition line or as a part line in request for order quotations. Only the active or unblocked, purchase parts should be enable to select from the list of purchase parts when creating PR or RFQ lines? The aim of this requirement is to stop using the purchase part at PR level it self without going down further.

 

Will this be an enhancement request?

Hi ​@SUREKA,

There is no OOTB functionality to block the Purchase Part at global level for PR and RFQ. It would be a good idea to have a toggle to set the Part to Active/Not Active similar to Supplier for Purchase Part records.

Hi ​@SUREKA 

We did a setup like this on the Project demand lines, perhaps you can apply to the PR / PO lines.

  • Added the text *do not use* on the part description. 
  • Added a value like this on the Page Designer to prevent such parts being captured onto the LOV when creating a project demand
     



    Hope this will help you as well.

    Thanks,
