Do we have a functionality in IFS to register charges/costs in Shipment Orders (no customer order link)? The company may use Courier service company (e.g uber) to move parts between different sites in the same company and the cost want to be registered. 

 

Thank you!

We don’t have any charge handling in Shipment Order. There is a general discussion on having charges on shipment in general, to handle charges in all scenarios handled via shipment e.g. Shipment Order, Return to Supplier, Project Deliverables.

Can you elaborate what you expect from the charge in the Shipment Order? Do you want a connected purchase order from that that will be matched against supplier invoice for the charge?

Yes, this exactly. We pay an outside company to deliver our shipments to customers. Customers are billed for this separately, and so the invoice to the customer does not need to show this information. But we would like the Shipment Charge to create a PO line that is received, and can be matched against for invoicing. This helps us to control if the Shipment has been billed from the hauler or not, rather than approving invoices manually.
