How Dangerous Goods Handling works in IFS

As of now Dangerous Goods, Classification, and Basic data are placed in HCM. Health and Safety. This is correct and it mainly discusses handling those materials from Health and safety perspective.MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) information can be registered under Dangerous Goods Information.However, this information can be visible in Part Catalog as well. We have a few questions.How HCM/ Dangerous Goods Information connects with Part Catalog in SCM. As Part Catalog has shipping and packing-related information and how it will connect with IFS SCM Shipping functionality.This is relavant to HCM and SCM. Best Regards,Thushan.

Automatic attachment of the ‚PURCHASE_ORDER_RECEPTION_REP‘ report to ‚PurchaseOrderLine‘ LU is not working via Report Rules

Product Version: 23R1SU5Not possible to connect the report automatically with the purchase order lines when printing it. Needs to be done manually. The issue can also be seen in the core environment. I have identified that generated report cannot be seen in the report rule log. The issue seems to be related to the configuration of the report rule. ConnectedLU = PurchaseOrderLineKeyRef = LINE_NO=[@PURCHASE_ORDER_RECEPTION_REP/PO_RECEIPT_HEADERS/PO_RECEIPT_HEADER/LINE_NO]^ORDER_NO=[@PURCHASE_ORDER_RECEPTION_REP/PO_RECEIPT_HEADERS/PO_RECEIPT_HEADER/ORDER_NO]^RELEASE_NO=[@PURCHASE_ORDER_RECEPTION_REP/PO_RECEIPT_HEADERS/PO_RECEIPT_HEADER/RELEASE_NO]^How can I verify if this keyRef is correct or not? How can I implement the report rule correctly for the PURCHASE_ORDER_RECEPTION_REP.

Can we return No Part Lines to a Supplier from PO for credit in IFS 23R2

We have a purchase order with a No Part Lines purchase received and registered into arrival for a jobsite. The PO has been re-opened in order to make changes to the Receipt. We’re attempting to use the Inspection result to return 10 of 50 No Part items received on this order.We Registered Inspection Results for a Qty of 10 items for Return Credit for return to the supplier. The Receipt page references Pending Return Status of “Yes” with a Shipment Connection Line No 9. We are missing some step(s) that would push to complete and confirm that the 10 returning No Part items have been sent back to the Supplier.When we print the Supplier Return Report the Qty to Return still appears as 0. Also, we attempted to reference any connection between the return quantity and the Supplier Shipment Lines page shown below.No apparent connection to the Supplier Shipment Lines referenced on the Receipt. What steps in the Supplier return process are we missing to simply return these No Part Lines? Tha

Customer order that have partial amount advance invoice but still take out full amount when closed/invoiced

Hi All,Need your advice.My organization is using IFS version 8As per subject, we have a situation where we issue partial advance invoice to customer order for the purpose of prepayment (usually 10%) from the entire customer order amount. However, when we closed the order and issue the rest of the invoice amount, the system take out full amount of the customer order. Example as below:The total customer order amount is 901152.00 and 10% of the amount is 90115.20. Supposedly, the balance of the invoice amount should be 811,036.50 Can anyone help to advice how to make sure that the rest of customer order amount invoice is offsetting advance invoice amount?Regards,Mirza

Update the part price from the Sales Part Base Prices

Hello, I got a list of catalog prices in my sales part, which have to be updated annually massivelly. I wanted to use the sales part base prices, but it doesn’t update my part price. The problem is that when I create a customer order, the price on my order is the price of the sales part and not the sales part base price. Is that a parameters of IFS tarification or have I to create necessarily a customer agreement or a sales price list ?

Why is Discount type mandatory on Site?

Hi All, I was hoping someone could clarify: Why is a Discount Type mandatory on the Site? I understand we can fill it in with a general discount of 0% and set it as hidden, but why must we even fill it in if it doesn't have a functional use? Looking forward to getting some insight into this. Thank you in advance! With kind regards,Marian van Doormalen

Distribution Order Type by Part No

Community, in IFS, distribution order type now is set at customer level, wondering whether we could have it set at the customer and part level.we have center warehouse in site MIS03, production site MIS02, we are using distribution order to move all production materials from MIS03 to MIS02. most of the raw materials for shop orders we are using distribution order with non-stop order type, then after all distribution orders are closed, we are creating shop order picking list (by work center) at the warehouse, and use the shop order picking list to pick all the materials, and pack into totes and label them with the destination work center. but some bolts and nuts are not doing in this way in step 2, they are using order points at MIS02. for those kinds of parts, they should not be using the same order type as the other production materials, they should be created the picking list on the distribution order rather than on the shop orders.question here, is it possible to have distribution o

Error Message when cancelling Shop Order

We are using IFS 10 Update 19. We needed to cancel a line on a customer order, the person said no to propagate changed down to pegged orders. Since they said no the DOP Header and Shop order were left hanging open. The master scheduler unpegged the shop order from the DOP Header and then went to try and cancel the shop order. We get an error message staying the purchase order is associated to one or more purchase order change orders. We do not peg purchase orders to our material. We have tried to determine why this error is happening and we are unsure why we are getting this error message. The message almost reads like it thinks this shop order is a purchase order, so I double check we do not have any purchase order in our system with the same order number. I checked to make sure there were no purchase order that have purchase order change orders that are waiting to be approved.

Supply Chain Matrix - Site or Supplier?

Dear Hive Mind…Just looking for some information on the pros/cons/correct choice to make re Supply Chain Matrix, please. SC Matrix is not something we’ve used before so I’m doing some testing. Our Distribution Calendar is a 5 day working week one. We have no Supplier Calendar or External Transport Time set or any days against Route/Ship via etc. Supp for PP record has leadtime entered (28 - as I undrestand ‘calendar days’) and Inspection Leadtime (4 - as I understand ‘working days’). Calc Purchase Leadtime is run. When I run MRP, there is no difference in the Latest Order Date result on the purchase req if I set up an Internal Transport Time on the Supply Chain Matrix for Site/from External Supplier or on the Supplier Chain Matrix for Supplier/to Demand Site.Is there a view as to which is the ‘correct’ way? Any thoughts gratefully received!ThanksLinda

Pick Lead Times by hours not days

Is it possible to use hours instead of days for pick lead times? I tried putting .5 for a lead time picking on a site but it would not accept that. Usually we can pick and ship in 2-4 hours so wondering if anyone has used picking times in hours instead of days? Thanks in advance.

Customer Order Delivered yet Item still as reserved in the inventory.

I have interesting case for you. Item was reserved, picked and delivered. Orders status changed to Invoiced/Closed yet, system shows that item is still in the inventory. When looked at the order it showing Delivered 1, Reserved 1 which doesn’t make sense. We can’t unpick it using Not Reported Line or In shipment as it looks as part wasn’t picked. We can’t unreserve it from the order (print screen) because order is closed and changes can’t be made. Sound like cqtch-22 situation. How can I scrap that item for the stock? It is still reserved and system won't allow me. Would be grateful for any good advice. Krystian,

Lot Size Based Structure within Master Schedule

Hello IFS community, I have a question regarding how the Lot Size Based Product Structure works. Here is a short summary of what I tested:Product Structure - Lot Size Structure – Anything bigger than 23 pcs should have Alternate “1” and anything smaller should use alternate “*”.I then master scheduled 35 pcs of this part number in one day. My Planning details for lot sizing are set as follows: Max lot size set to 25 pcs (no min or Std).Result – Two Shop Order requisitions: 1 with 10 lot size and one with 25 lot size but BOTH with alternate 1 (only for lots bigger than 23). EXPECTED result: Two Shop Order Reqs: 1 with 10 and one with 25 but with different PRODUCT ALTERNATES. In this case, we are trying to tell IFS to use a different packaging for when we make 25 pcs Lot size. I read in the link below that only MRP checks through Lot Size Based Product Structure:Selecting Product Structure Alternate while performing MRP/MS in App-9 | IFS Community Is this true or am I facing a bug?
