Supply Chain

We received a weighted average costed part with a Supplier Invoice Consideration that is Transaction Based.  The wrong price was on the original PO and we sold the parts to a customer.  The Detailed Statistics screen is showing the sale price with the wrong cost field.  The PO cost was updated and the supplier invoice was posted and processed to reflect the change in price.  On the Inventory Transaction page, we can see the change in the costs and the appropriate accounting entries to reflect the change in the Cost of Good Sold account.  However, we run the Detailed Statistics nightly, and the invoice in question, has not had the cost updated as reflected in the journal entry.  Is there something we can do to update the Detail Statistics - Invoiced Sales data.  We export this data into a Power BI data warehouse to run reports and this one is not reflected correctly.

HI In Page Designer, there are missing fields that I need to add, which are located in the Purchase_part table and PurchasePart entity. How do I do this? KR

In the IFS Product documentation, it is stated that the general rating for the supplier will be generated and updated based on the outcome of the selected evaluation. In other words, the overall score obtained from the evaluation will correspond to a specific rating that will be assigned to the supplier.  Note that it mentions “the selected” evaluation but does not indicate how an evaluation can be selected. I have done the rating and evaluation value mapping in the Supplier Rating screen. Then I have done a Supplier Peformance Evaluation and published it after the results were generated. But the Supplier’s SRM tab does not reflect the general rating based on the mappings defined in Supplier Rating. Am I missing something? TIA

We are using IFS Applications 10 with Approval Templates for Purchase Orders. I would like to understand how an approval decision can be revoked once an approver has already taken a decision.In our approval setup, there are multiple approval steps. When one of the approvers rejects the Purchase Order, we correct the issue or query in the PO and attempt to resend the approval. Although the system allows us to add another approval step, the previously rejected step remains locked, and the same approver is not allowed to take a new decision. please clarify whether it is possible to fully restart the approval process after a rejection so that all approvers, including the one who rejected earlier, can approve again? If this is not possible, please confirm the standard and recommended approach in IFS Applications 10 for handling such scenarios.

Do you any of you out there in the Community have need for outbound inspections as you send out shipments?  This is a requirement of our business. Currently, we use IFS9 and have a heavily customized set of logical units and fields to support an outbound inspection process on our Shipments.  A version of it is also used on our Transport Tasks. As we kick off our upgrade to Cloud 25R2, I’m trying to think of alternative ways to do those inspections, whether in or out of the system.  If we used some sort of external process, at least we could maybe cut down our custom material to some minimal custom fields, rather than needing to apply business logic.  If any of you are already using any of these processes, I’d love to hear your stories!

Hello.My understanding isthat the Promised Delivery Date on a Customer Order Line should stay as is if the order/line is confirmed.I have created this order and confirmed.I then change the target date to 08/06/2026, I expected the Planned Delivery Date and the Planned Ship Date to align, however expected the Promised Delivery Date to be kept. Is my understanding wrong?

Hi everyone,currently we use system for calculating distribution and production plans (not IFS) (supply, distribution, inventory) and IFS for execution (PO / CO).We are evaluating whether IFS alone could cover more of the planning scope.Could you please clarify whether IFS (and in which modules) supports the following:Distribution planning Planning stock transfers between plants and DCs Deciding from which location to supply demand when multiple sources exist Handling constrained situations (limited stock or supply) Multi-echelon & supply planning Coordinated planning across multiple levels (supplier → plant → DCs → regional DCs) Inventory balancing across echelons Creating time-phased supply plans and sharing what suppliers need to produce and when

Hi,We have upgraded to 25R1 SU3 last week and we can no longer pre-post our customers orders to accounting projects (financial project). IFS has introduced a bug fix SCZ 27798 and it is now mandatory to enter a project id (WBS project) in the customer order details tab if to want to entre pre-posting on the customer header.Has anybody else experienced this problem or can help us out ?Thanks and Regards,Anne-Sophie

Hi there.How do I connect a charge in kg to a sales part in pcs?We sell batteries in pcs, but we want to add a (environmental) charge calculated in the total weight of the sales part.I want to avoid creating unique charge type for each possible product weight. Example:Part A (Battery 12V 40A). Weight 12 kg.Part B (Battery 12V 60A). Weight 15 kgCharge Type “ENV_FEE_KG”. Price 0,5 EUR per kgI want to connect the same Charge type to both part A and B.And that charge will calculate cost separetly for both parts.Lets say I want to sell 3pcs each.(12 kg x 3 pcs=36 kg15 kg x 3 pcs = 45 kgCost line 1: 36 kg x 0,5 EUR = 18 EURCost line 2: 45 kg x 0,5 EUR = 22,5 EUR) Warm regards Andreas

Hi,We are currently working in IFS Cloud 25R1.Currently, you are able to ‘refill all putaway zones’ at a remote warehouse via shipment order. Every time this action is performed, the site that is connected to the RWH will be used as sender. Now, we want to use shipment orders to perform the ‘refill all putaway zones’ of a RWH, but preferabaly with another RWH as sender.  Is there any possibilty to manage this without any configurations? Many thanks! Roy

Why would a company like IFS think that its not important to be able to go back in time and look at what a particular value was as of a prior date.  How can you manage a company without a days on hand inventory report.  Which you cannot get unless useless fields are filled out.  Simply idiotic and poor creation of an EDP system.  In addition, people make mistakes, they hit the wrong key, and yet for some transactions in IFS you cannot reverse what someone did, further complicating everyone’s life.  It actually takes a coding change to be able to “unlock” inventory from a Distribution Order that has gone awry.  No system is perfect, but this is worse than bad.  Our entire company is regretting going to IFS at this point.  My question is when will developers at IFS decide to make a system that actually does what a basic business needs.  Stop complicating the system, and install basic functions that are easy to use for 5th graders.

Hello,I am not sure which sub forum to put this question in, originally, I had asked it in Buying (Procurement, Demand Planner, ASC, SRM).Availability Check Calculation - Requisition and Planned Demand Included | IFS CommunityI have a question regarding the Availability Check function and what it does and does not include.I am currently working in version 9 and currently using the CO Plannable field in Inventory Part Availability Planning to confirm what is included in the check.From what I can determine, requisitions and MRP planned supply/demand do not factor. This is understandable as they are not firm-enough to be considered. Shop Orders in a planned state will count as plannable supply, but the components of the shop order do not count as p

Has anyone else run into this: IFS Cloud 22R2; Stock is in a Remote Warehouse Picking Location.  When you try to Report Picking using Shipment Inventory on a Shipment for this item, you cannot select the Shipping Location Type to move the Inventory.  They are not shown in the LOV.

Supplier log on Supply portal to confirm POeg: PO#001/Line1/Rel 1 -  PO qty =3000, with wanted delivery date 4/1/2022, from supplier side, they only can 1000 on 4/1/2022, 2000 on 4/15/2022, the expected result is,  when supplier change PO qty to 1000 and write down date as 4/1/2022 in PO#001/line1/rel 1, then another PO line with same PO#001/Line1/rel2  will be popped up with PO Qty=2000 (the rest of 3000 after 4/1/2022, price and other message is the same as original PO status), then supplier write down date as 4/15/2022. how to make this happen?please adviceThanks

How can I clean out old data from Detail Statistics - Invoiced Sales in Apps 9?  

Hi,When in the inter-site process a customer order is shipped, following two inventory transactions are created:SHIPTRAN: Ship Customer Order Internal TransitINTORDTR: Move to Internal Order Transit due to IssueWhen a shipment is cancelled, it is reversed using following two inventory transactions:UNINTORDTR: Reversal of Move to Internal Order Transit due to IssueUNSHIPTRAN: Undo Ship Customer Order Internal Transit When executing "Reversal of Move to Internal Order Transit due to Issue" (UNINTORDTR), the costs (INTORDTR) are not returned in the same amount.Instead, the costs are recalculated according to the FIFO principle.This can result in differences, which then remain as a balance on the transfer account. Example Part No SP065137

Hi, all of you experts,I’m using IFS Cloud and I have a question related to multiple lines to be moved with transport task. When using move inventory with transport task from Inventory part in stock I would like to have a new transport task created for the picked lines.In my case the selected lines will be added to an already existing transport task which is not yet executed. Do I miss any setup?Best regards,Marita 

 Hi, I am currently handling an issue related to customer consignment stock, where the consumed quantities for certain parts do not match the invoice. This seems to be related to how IFS APP10 handles consignment stock consumption and invoicing when partial reservations exist across multiple lot/batch numbers. Specifically, when a customer performs consignment stock consumption at the header level. Consignment part: 80890121 Customer order created: 41883388 Reserved quantities in order: 50 → Lot 3107518---1 1150 → Lot 41826419-1-1-1 Consumption scenario: Quantities were consumed from the Customer Consignment Stock Consumption window at header level. Total consumption: 1150 The system actually consumed stock from lot 3107522---1. The reserved quantities in order

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

I’ve been trying to find an option to add a discount amount for a purchase requisition line. All I can find is the discount percentage, but this is not a valid option. My client is entering after the fact purchase reqs for things like hospitality and a discount amount is often given for a total amount, say $360. I can have the users manually calculate the discount percentage at the line level but this is not user friendly and often doesn’t add up to the correct net amount. I tried to create a 200% discount and it allows me on the Purchase Req line, however, there is a blocking message when attempting to convert to a PO, since the PO line would have a negative amount. I can do the discount total on a PO by using charges and entering a negative amount, however, I’m struggling to find any options to enter a discount amount for a purchase requisition line.Any thoughts or ideas? Thank you.

Hi All,What is the normal process if a configuration needs changing on a customer order line where a pegged purchase order exists?Is it to cancel the line, recreate, then add the new requisition to the existing Purchase Order?Cheers,Jamie
