Hi IFS Community,I would like to seek advice on how to change the authorizer for an existing Purchase Order (PO).I have already updated the authorizer settings under Purchase Authorization Basic Data.When the PO status is Planned, I can select or change the authorization routing template using the "Select Authorization Routing Template" option without any issues.However, once the PO status is Released, this option is no longer available.Is there any alternative way to change or reassign the PO authorizer after the PO has been released, without having to cancel or recreate the PO?Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!
Problem: picklist created with twice sales qty some customer order line which fail the delivery process and order remain stuck at ‘reserved’Customer Order - after incoming delivery message from 3PL shipment is created, pick list is created but message fails due to ‘’‘[{"code":20110,"message":"ORA-20110: DeliverCustomerOrder.QTYTODELGTASSQTY: Quantity to deliver is greater than the assigned quantity."}]}}’ Since the process is via IFSCONNECT, manual reservation/pick is ruled out.if order of sequence is delivery incoming message-->shipment header->shipment line with qty->pick list creation. What triggers qty_shipdiff = 1 before shipment line qty calculation (or subsequent step of pick list creation) as qty_shipdiff is derived by : new_qty_picked_ - line_rec_.revised_qty_due where revised_qty_due_ := rec_.revised_qty_due - rec_.qty_shipped - rec_.open_shipment_qty + rec_.qty_shipdiff;looks like circular relation, cannot figure when is qty_shipdiff popluated ???I
Hi All, There is a need from a customer to assess Customer Schedule functionality. They have asked how mature and widely adopted it is in real implementations. Do you know of any customers using Customer Schedules,? If names can't be shared, anything along these lines would help: industry, region, business scenario, EDI usage (DELSCH/DELFOR, plans vs call-offs), how it was implemented, and any reconciliation or release exception lessons learned. Pointers to case studies, presentations, webinars or screenshots that can be shared with a partner would also help. Thanks in advance!

Hi, We're on IFS Cloud 25R1 (SU8). In this thread, a customer shared IFS's explanation of how Part Availability Controls behave: https://community.ifs.com/ideas/part-availability-control-set-on-a-location-is-not-carried-over-when-moving-into-qa-or-into-stock-66161 “Part Availability Controls follow a sort of hierarchy based on how they are applied:If applied via a default on an inventory location: The control is tied to the location, not the stock record. This means: Moving stock to a location without a default will remove the control Moving stock to a location with a default will apply that location’s control automatically If applied manually: The control is tied directly to the stock record and will move with it between locationsAccording to IFS, this behavior is intentional and designed to allow controls to adjust automatically based on location rules.” What I'd like to confirm: will a QC hold placed manually on stock keep that control when moved into a location with a different d

Hello We are investigating the planning logic for an inter-site Distribution Order.SetupDemand Site: AB Supply Site: ZX Supply method: Inter-site Distribution Order Route assigned in the Supply Chain Matrix: Friday only Internal Transport Lead Time: 4 days External Transport Lead Time: 0 Transport Lead Time: 0ScenarioA Distribution Order is created with:Wanted Delivery Date = 27-Oct-2026 (Tuesday)The system automatically recalculates:Planned Delivery Date = 23-Oct-2026 (Friday) Planned Ship Date = 23-Oct-2026 (Friday)We tested both:Customer calendar with weekdays only External transport calendar with weekends includedNeither setup affected the calculation.However, the Planned Receipt Date is still significantly later than the Planned Delivery Date, indicating that the Internal Transport Lead Time is being considered somewhere in the process.Planned Receipt date - 02-Nov-2026(Monday)QuestionIs it standard behavior that the route is evaluated first and the Planned Delivery Date is adjust
Hello,I am experiencing a behavior with Selective MRP in IFS Cloud that I do not fully understand.Context : Parent part: Part Type = Purchased The part has a Structure Type = Manufacturing, alternate * with status Buildable I run Selective MRP on the parent part.During the first Selective MRP run:MRP is executed for the parent part. The components in the Manufacturing structure are also considered. Dependent demands for other part are visible for the component parts in the MRP information.During the second Selective MRP run, without making any changes to demand, inventory, or product structure data:The dependent demands generated for all the components disappear.Is this the expected behavior of Selective MRP in IFS Cloud?I would expect the same planning results to be generated on each run as long as no relevant data has changed.Has anyone experienced a similar situation?Thank you in advance for your help and feedback.IFS Cloud version: - 25R1 SU0
I am looking for certain suppliers only to only run MRP a couple of days a week. How do I set this up?
We are currently trying to use the order cover time on a manufactured part by setting it to Planning Method G. We want the demand as seen on MS Level 1 to be assessed over the cover time and used to generate shop order requisitions for the demand within the order cover time. However, Planning Method G only appears to work for Purchased Parts. Has anyone managed to get this work for manufactured parts?

Hello community, We are in IFS Cloud 24R2 and we would like to upgrade to 25r2 Su9. I have a problem this yhe adjusted demand in forecast demand.The quantity in “adjusted demand” is changed by a process. I can't figure out why this happens or how to prevent it.I get the impression that these changes are related to the qualification task. Thanks for your help.
Can we configure the PO to have a defined quantity tolerance for goods receipts, with a hard limit?For example, if we order 100 boxes and set a ±10% tolerance, the system should allow receipts between 90 and 110 boxes. However, it should automatically prevent the receipt if the quantity is below 90 or above 110.Is there a standard configuration or setting that can enforce this tolerance at the time of receipt?
I have an inter-site flow where a Customer Order at Site A is fulfilled through an Internal Customer Order at Site B.The process is as follows:The original Customer Order is created at Site A. The corresponding Internal Customer Order is processed at Site B. Users at Site B create/process the shipment and print the Shipment Delivery Note. I have a user at Site A who is responsible for the original Customer Order. This user only has access to Site A and therefore cannot access the shipment/delivery note generated at Site B.I would like to know:Is there any standard functionality that allows a user at Site A to access or view the Delivery Note (PDF) generated for the shipment at Site B, without giving the user access to Site B? Alternatively, is it possible to automatically attach the Delivery Note PDF to the original Customer Order at Site A when the Shipment Delivery Note is printed/generated at Site B?Has anyone implemented a similar inter-site scenario in IFS Cloud? If so, what would
We have a customer order with a line that is Purchase Order Direct. The PO created from the line was received. We then needed to return the part to the supplier. An RMA was created for the line but to return to inventory instead of return to supplier. The RMA was completed.Is there a way to do a supplier return of the part from inventory?The RMA cannot be undone. A return to supplier cannot be done from the PO receipt because it was direct delivery. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

We are new to export licenses. This is for a UK based company. We have a general use license that is about to expire. It is currently connected to hundreds of customer order lines. I know how we could replace the old license with the new license using the Find and Connect Export License but that is one customer order line at a time. Is there a better way to update the connections to a new export license?

I want to have a Suppliers order email as default selected when press Share on a Purchase order.Is it possible to add a order email on supplier somehow without having to create a person named “Order”?(Today my own email adress gets pre-selected when press share on Purchase order).(Order@supplier.com is not quite a person which seems wrong to create as a person).Guidance of how to setup an order email on a supplier that gets pre-selected on purchase order is welcomed.
