Supply Chain

Hello,    Currently have a customer that creates a handful of OEM parts designated for key customers, and do not want those parts to be available to their other customers.             I’ve been able to create multiple assortments and when creating a CO, the system will only pull in the parts that are assigned to that customer.  However, if I create a sales quotation the system will allow me to pull in all parts vs just the ones assigned to that specific customer             I attempted to convert the sales quote into an order and the system will throw an error message that those parts are not assigned to to those customers, so that part works however customer does not want to mistakenly quote certain parts.             Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated Thank you,Joe

Our Finance Team (in Viet Nam) has a request to edit Tax Code in Purchase Order Lines and they need to perform this change without creating a Change Order.The main reason is due to government regulations changes from time to time, so they need flexibility to edit Tax Codes in Purchase Order Lines. We have done some internal investigations and noticed that “Planned Delivery Date” can be changed even after Purchase Order Lines have been authorized but Tax Codes cannot be changed without creating Change Orders.Does anyone know a valid reason for this? Thank you 

We have several companies in our instance that use different accounting calendars.  IFS only seems to allow one set of Statistic Periods.  I was wondering how other companies handled that 

Hi all, I have a service contract connected to a work order. That service contract has an invoice type “fixed price” that means that every material issued or time reported will not be invoiced on the customer invoice but because they are costs of the work order the lines exists in the tab “sales” on the work order. Our client doesn’t want the lines with 0€ price to appear on the customer order or customer invoice. There is an option to do this, as in the following picture:  But the client wasn’t 100% satisfied because they can have multiple lines and multiple work orders in a month to do this. I would like to know if anyone knows a better option that allows us to define that when we have a line that the cost will not be invoiced to the client this line will not appear on the customer order or customer invoice.  Thank you :)

This is about customer return of goods in a multisite order flow between two different companies.My customer is on IFS Application 10 Upd.11.The starting point is: A Customer Order is created with customer EXT in Company A and site A with direct delivery to the customer EXT from Company B and site B.The customer order is fully delivered and invoiced, both to the customer EXT and the internal customer A. The delivery of the customer order line from company B on site B is delivered in two different shipments and handling units. This means, there are two different DIRDEL messages sent to the connected purchase order on company A (site A) and results in two different purchase order receipts for the purchase order line.The next step is to create an RMA from the Customer Order on Company A and site A. All quantity on the order line shall be returned.In the RMA created on site A, the returning supplier will be company B, and the returning site will be Site B. When releasing the RMA, the secon

Hello IFS Community,I am experiencing an issue with the Perform Site MRP process. Specifically, the step 'Site 01 removal of MRP distribution orders started at 20250219 18:18:14.' which normally takes less than 30 seconds to complete, has been taking up to 30 minutes today. I am unable to understand why this is happening.Has anyone else encountered a similar issue? Any suggestions on what to look for or how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for your help!Best regards,Marcus IFS Cloud 23R2 SU10

I created an event action to trigger after the final PO authorization step is completed. The event action should update the Purchase Order state from Planned to Released using Purchase_Order_API.Release_Order. The API is called but it  does not update the status. However I am able to get the PO status to update to Released if I revoke the Authorization step. Is there something blocking the PO to be Released when the final step is Authorized?

Is there any documentation for IFS Cloud Subcontracting which explains the overall process where subcontracting is connecting to Projects and Procurement. Thanks

24R2.  I have a Shipment that resulted from one Shipment Order where both Sender and Receiver of Type = Site.  I used the Create Consolidated Pick List for Shipment process to try to create pick lists by Storage Zone.  It does not create any pick lists, but the background process also does not fail.  If I use Customer Order instead of Shipment Order, same lines, same process, the pick lists are created.

We can’t understand the price in the supplier purchase price list when we set up a price convertion factor in the supplier for purchase part. Example 1: Price setup in the supplier for purcahse part (CORRECT RESULT)Purchase Part with a Price of 10£ Price Covertion Factor = 100 When we run a Price comparaison for a quantity of 1 PCS, we get the price = 0.10£ =10$/100 whitch is CORRECT. Example 2 : Price setup in the Supplier Price list (WRONG RESULT) The problem here is when we open the “Supplier for Purchase Part Price Lists” overview page below, we can’t understand the price, because it shows a unit price of 10£ and there is no information that a price convertion exist!This is very problematique because a wrong price value can be used when purcahse pricing are reviewed. As a suggested solution:We should at least add the Price convertion factor info to the “Supplier for Purchase Part Price Lists” overview page Also having a calculated price using the price conv factor in a new field wo

Hello!My customer is looking for a more efficient way to search for parts within the assortment and perform mass updates. Today they are searching for the parts by Parts by assortment to find the parts and get the Assortment node. Then they copy the Assortment nodes and use them in Assortment attributes and from this view they can perform mass updates. Although there is a limit here for data and change without getting a time out.   I would like to know how others work with assortment and mass updates, I have limited knowledge in this area and I can´t find any documentation :) Thanks! BREmma

Hi, I am wondering whether anyone have come across any good solution to handle pack sizes in relation to IFS Part No? This situation should be familiar to many IFS Customers:We have a part, e.g. “Paint” that is setup in IFS with UoM (Litre/Liter → l). The paint can be bought in different Sizes:1L 2L 3L 5LWe are aware that you can purchase in a different UoM, e.g. JAR/PKG and set the conversation rates e.g. 5 to 1 in 5L JAR, when received increases the Inventory Qty to 5L. All good so far, but the challenge is that you:Only can have 1 Supplier for Purchase Part for a given Supplier Only one Purchase Part per SupplierIn an ideal worlds it should have worked as the Sales Part, where you can have multiple Sales Part per Inventory Part, as this can be soled in different ways.The alternative as I see (but would like to hear if anyone else done something cleaver):Have a IFS Part No per Pack Size Really don’t think this is ideal.  Use different UoM on Supplier for Purchase Part (unique per Pa

Hi all, I am trying to calculate the part cost for an alternate different than ’*’. I have set up a product structure with alternate ‘*’ and alternate ‘1’. For testing purposes, both alternates have the same components. Both alternates have the buildable status. When I calculate the cost set 5 for alternate ‘*’, no problem is found, and the cost is correctly calculated. When I try to calculate cost set 5 for alternate ‘1’, I get the message that ‘Manufacturing/Purchase Structure is not found’. In the message log i see that ‘No Buildable/Plannable Structure Revision Found’ The structure exists and is in buildable state. Am I missing something? Is there anyone used to work with cost calculation for different alternates who has been through this issue before? Regards

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, I am currently having trouble with shortage handling in IFS Cloud. I’m trying to get the shortage notification to appear when I place a Customer Order in the scenario where there is no stock available to fulfill the order. I have enabled the Shortage Notification toggle on the Inventory Part and the Shortage Handling toggle on the Parameters for Supply Chain and Manufacturing page. I have checked to make sure there was no quantity on hand and also see the orders with shortages on the Handle Customer Order Shortages page. Is there anything I’m missing for this message to appear? Any help is appreciated!
