 Can anyone advise why PrePosting on Material Req has this ‘double pop up’ thing going on in 24R1, please?  I create a new Mat req, save the header.  PrePosting pane pops up.  I enter an Account Code and then the ‘Edit’ panel pops up.  In 23R1 the Preposting Panel just popped up and we entered Account, Cost Centre and Brand details there?  V clunky workflow now … unless I’m missing something?   Thanks.

Hi, We have a case where parts are moved via shipment order. When correct qty are moved and received its no problem .What is the process to if correct qty was not shipped?When we create shipment order for 10 pcs we ship 10pcs but at receiving after arrival we found only 5 were in the box. But as the shipment which was connected to shipment order is closed and parts are arrived I cannot reopen the Shipment. What is the way to undo? As I dont have the option to return from receipts. And receiving wrong qty is not correct. Can someone share some knowledge?

We have an issue where a part has been set up on different sites, but the Inventory UoM is different on each site.  This is causing a problem when trying to return stock that was sent out from a Bonded site but is to be returned to a Duty Paid Site.  Below is the detail of the part that is set up incorrectly across the different sites.The correct UoM is CS6 which should have been used, not CS3 Overview screen showing the sites and differences in set up.  We have an RMA that has been created where the stock was dispatched from PEBAU but is being returned to PEPAU.  We cannot complete this RMA as when we enter the Qty to return on the originating RMA, the volume to retur

We created a couple of Sites for multi-site planning, but the Internal Customer is incorrect.  Within the Site, we hyperlinked to the internal Customer, but selected Remove.Now the Site still has the Internal Customer but we cannot Delete the Internal Customer because it has already been Removed.

Do we have a way of generating a sequence number in a Key field like Price list number in configuration level in cloud? 

We are encountering a situation where a specific Customer Order Type (COM) seems to be forcing all associated Purchase Order Lines to 100% discount. When the discount is set back to 0%, it automatically updates in the background back to 100%. At first, i assumed this was custom functionality in our instance, but i’ve been unable to find any custom events or workflows that are triggered on PurchaseOrderLine or PurchaseOrderLinePart. While in theory this makes sense (Commission orders having 0 cost), I can’t seem to find any place in IFS where we would have set up this functionality. Does anyone know if this is native? When i check in the PO Line History, i can see my entries for setting discount to 0%, but there doesnt appear to be anything setting it back to 100% in the history, so it is happening in the background somewhere. Any ideas on how i can track this down? For reference, we are currently on IFS Cloud 25R1.3

I have created purchase order , added part lines then release the purchase then receive it from register arrivals also i have performed quality inspection in which my receive case was receive at arrival inspect at QA . When i’m registering inspection result shipment lines are not been created automatically.How to resolve this?

Having IFS Cloud (24R2), I am facing the problem that final invoice has incorrect values in the quantity. Difference is rather small (less than 1%), seems as incorrect rounding, but still, it is not the expected amount.I have a consignation stock with material. Customer reports what they have used. Based on that, I am creating a collective invoice mapping correct lot-batches, etc. (Catch qty is not used.) We are storing meters, selling kilograms. Error did not appear every time, rather randomly, with no obvious reason.Any useful idea?

Hi,We have noticed that when a warehouse task is created for a shop order pick list, it is automatically splitting the pick lists by location group even when the materials are in the same warehouse and we have the pick lists per set to warehouse only. The location groups are all of the same type picking, but still it gets split. If we do not choose the option to create a warehouse task then only one shop order pick list is created but by toggling on the warehouse task field the pick lists are always split by location group.I have tried adding and removing location groups to the worker group and worker, but it always splits the shop order pick lists when multiple location groups are involved.We cannot remove the location groups from the warehouses as these used for other tasks such as counting, CO picking, etc.  Any ideas on how to maintain one pick list per warehouse without warehouse tasks splitting them would be appreciated. Thanks

Good day IFS Community!  I am wondering how I assign a pick list from a shipment to a team member for them to pick utilizing WaDaCo and not having to print a paper copy of the pick ticket.  This would allow my warehouse leadership to distribute the pick lists out to the team and assign.  I have poked around in Transport Tasks and Warehouse Tasks and do not see where I can assign a pick list.  The next question I will have is where do the team members see their assigned pick lists?  How will they know the next pick tickets are ready?  

We have configured Supplier B2B in our development environment, and we’ve witnessed that when a supplier pushes through a change, we do not see the change on the incoming purchase order confirmation.  We see the note a supplier has left, but do not see any QTY or PRICE changes on the change order or purchase order. Has anyone else seen this happen? We do have allow changes for this supplier enabled (common fault I’ve seen on this forum). We’re on Apps 10 UPD 20. 

Does anyone have any idea what the below error message means “Level1Forecast.FND_RECORD_EXIST: The Level 1 Forecast already exists” is the message when MS Level 1 is scheduled. Also happens when manually clicking Run MS - One Part. Red stop message “ The Level 1 Forecast already exists.  Forecast is copied in Demand Planner

Hi, I tried to enter discount on  Customer Agreement based on Sales group (in IFS Cloud) but this information is not fetched to SQ and CO. There are no other agreements or Price lists connected to the Customer.Correct Sales group, quantity, discount type, value and validity are chosen but doesnt get reflected. Any idea what the issue can be please? Thank you 

When working with Inventory Part statusses there are basicly 2 options:Use a minimum number of statusses based on the possible combinations of settings. For example:Encode the different departments in the status so you know who at any moment is responsible (when creating new parts or updating them)Any comments on how this is done are welcome :-)

 Body: Hi IFS Community,I work in the Steel Industry (Coil Service Center / Decoiling) using IFS Applications 10. We have a specific scenario regarding purchasing and receiving raw material (Steel Coils) and I am wondering if there is a standard solution for this or if it requires customization.The Scenario: Purchasing: We create a Purchase Order for a total weight (e.g., 100 Tons of 5x1000mm Steel Coil) as a single line item. Supplier Notification: Before delivery, the supplier sends us a detailed packing list via Excel. This file contains specific details for each individual coil that makes up the 100 tons: Coil No / ID Heat No / Cast No Lot/Batch No Specific Weight (e.g., Coil 1: 20 tons, Coil 2: 18 tons...) Valid F

While creating ‘Supplier Schedule’ this error occurred and there is no existing Agreement id How to make a new Agreement ID?

Subject: Is it possible to create a Purchase Requisition/Order directly from the "Inventory Parts with Shortage" screen?Hi Community,We are currently using IFS Applications 10 EE.Our planning team frequently uses the "Inventory Parts with Shortage" and "Resolve Shortages for Inventory Part" screens to monitor critical stock levels.However, when we identify a shortage, we want to be able to take immediate action to supply the material directly from these screens. Specifically, we are looking for an option in the Right Mouse Button (RMB) menu to "Create Purchase Requisition" or "Create Purchase Order" for the selected part.As seen in the attached screenshots, the standard RMB options currently allow us to "Resolve Shortages" (allocate existing stock), but there is no direct option to generate new supply (Purchasing) for the shortage quantity.

Hi Community,We are planning to implement and execute the MRP (Material Requirements Planning) setup for a specific site in our company using IFS Applications 10.As an Industrial Engineer, I am well-versed in the theoretical concepts, but this will be my first time executing the practical application within IFS. I need your experience to ensure the process runs smoothly and generates accurate purchase/production proposals.Could you please share your suggestions on the following topics? Data Preparation: Apart from Safety Stock, Lead Times, and Planning Methods (A, B, etc.), what are the "must-check" essential parameters on the "Inventory Part > Planning" tab? Calendars: What is the impact of Distribution and Manufacturing calendars on MRP? What kind of issues can an incorrect calendar setup cause?

Using IFS9. Lot batch was received on a customer-owned Purchase Order line that was missing the activity/project connection.  This lot batch is reflected in Inventory Part In Stock without the project connection.  We need to make an activity/project connection on the customer order, and we cannot make the reservation because the customer order line has the project association but the lot batch does not. When trying to move the inventory tag to the project, the system tries to amend the customer owner to 1, rather than the actual customer who owns the part.  Here’s what we have tried so far to resolve this:  Reopen PO line and connect activity.  Activity connection is greyed out… unable to action. Transfer lot batch to project inventory from Inventory Part In Stock.  This action tries to amend the owning customer to 1 rather than the actual customer owning the stock. Reserve lot batch without activity connectio

Is there a way to add an automatic document text to the customer order for a specific site?   

“When multiple valid agreements exist for the same customer, site and currency, the system will per default retrieve the agreement with the lowest ID to the customer order, and display this in the customer order header.” Is there any logic to selecting the lowest ID?

Hello,Would it be possible to define for Inventory Parts its real location on shelves in warehouse;is there any field to introduce the information where the Part is located in warehouse; e.g. Storage Racks No + shelf No;Regards,Kruthika
