Supply Chain

Currently, in the Matching Lines dialog (accessed when matching PO lines from a Manual Supplier Invoice), column sorting is not supported. Its noted the list appears to be backend-controlled and designed as a transactional selection dialog rather than a sortable grid. As a result, users cannot sort by Line No, Part No, Quantity, or Amount.Although filtering is technically available, it does not sufficiently support practical invoice matching scenarios.Business ImpactThis creates significant difficulty for customers handling: Large purchase orders with many lines Multiple invoices against a single PO High daily invoice volumes When “Match All” is not applicable (e.g., partial invoices), users must manually review long unsorted lists, which significantly increases matching time and reduces efficiency.Requested EnhancementPlease consider enabling column sorting (o

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,In IFS Cloud, is it possible to automate the ‘Delivery Confirmation of Customer Orders’ based on the receipt of purchase orders for which a "Receiving Advice" has been created and sent via MHS ?The objective is to automatically generate sales order Delivery Confirmations as soon as a purchase order receiving advice has been issued.For clarification, this is within the context of an intercompany flow between two sites (one buyer and one seller). Thank you in advance for your support Best regards  

I am unable to release a purchase requisition in IFS Cloud even though I have full access to PurchaseRequisitionHandling.

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 everyone,I am looking for guidance or a possible workaround for this business case.My customer uses many kit items (kits manufactured using a standard BOM). These kits are sent to a project location through a customer order.After the project is finished, some items are returned to the warehouse. However, they are not returned as complete kits. Instead, the remaining parts are returned as individual components and put back into stock.How can we handle this in IFS? Instead of using customer orders, I tried using shipment orders and moving the stock to a “Remote Warehouse” (project location). However, I could not find a solution for handling the kit issue this way. If I use RMA to receive the returned components, what should I do with the original kit item at the project location? How can I identify which parts were consumed? Is there any other practical or better way to manage this proces

In the "Purchase Requisition Lines" screen, the field "Supplier" displays a concatenated value of:Supplier ID – Supplier NameHowever, when exporting data from this screen to Excel, the generated file contains a column named Supplier, but it only includes the Supplier ID. The Supplier Name is completely missing from the export.This behavior is currently reproducible: In all IFS Cloud versions In Aurena Identified previously as a framework limitation Business ImpactA customer has raised the same issue and is not satisfied with the proposed workaround. The workaround suggested creating a custom field, but the customer has explicitly declined this option.Their feedback is as follows:They are intentionally avoiding creating new cust

Hello,I was hoping someone could help me with understanding how the Return to Vendor for Credit and Rework works in IFS Cloud.My question really revolves around the differences between Cloud and Apps9.When Returning for Rework in Apps9, the PO Receipt would close, but the PO line would open so it could be registered and received back into inventory on a new receipt. That doesn’t seem to be how it works in Cloud as far as I can tell. I can’t get the parts backed out of inventory and generate a Return Transaction or receive the line back into inventory.Could someone explain the differences to me and what it is I might be missing? Thanks in advance,Andrew

Screenshot from Shop Order Tracked Structure showing 5 x serial numbers for the 2 components.Screenshot from Shop Order History showing 6 x serial numbers for 2 components have been issued We recently went live with lot/batch tracking and serial tracking on some components. I am trying to receive a shop order, and am getting an error telling me that there is not enough of the above components in the tracked structure to process the shop order. I have tried regenerating the tracked structure, but am unsure how I can ‘add’ the missing serial numbers into the tracked structures.

Short Description: Understand the Row Level Security Detailed for a William Grant Use CaseRequest Category: Provide Solution Advisory ServicesRequest Sub Category: Basic Functional AdvisoryRequest in Detail: We are looking to understand how row-level security can be applied in IFS, specifically with inventory transaction history records. The use case involves highly regulated security requirements, and we need guidance on whether row-level security can be configured to meet the following needs: Hiding inventory transactions based on custom fields or attributes. Restricting access to specific parts or data elements unless a user has a particular permission set. Clarification on whether these controls can be applied beyond standard site restrictions, which are alr

We are evaluating using 3 part numbers for our rebuilt parts process instead of using a Condition Code enabled single part: a part number for NEW, CORE and REBUILT. The part can only be rebuilt a finite number of times thus serialization is required.Parts received from a customer via an RMA as well as parts that are remanufactured in-house using a remanufacturing shop order trigger the automatic rename of the serial that was implemented with the introduction of the Serial Lifecycle Group functionality.But the majority of CORES are not rebuilt in-house but are sent out instead to a supplier on a normal Purchase Order as Supplied Material. When I try to receive the REBUILT part using the same serial number as the CORE the following error message is triggered:Does anybody know what issue types and receipt types are supported for the

 Hi,Can I set the number of decimal places in IFS 10? After an update, my inventory levels are visible to 10 decimal places. Is there any way to control this? Best regards,Bartosz

I’m currently creating a workflow to update a price on a Customer Order Line as well as Purchase Order Line. The scenario is internal trade, where my trigger is state of Customer Order changes to “Delivered”.Then, I want to update my BaseUnitPrice on the COL with the Cost from the same COL. However, before patching the COL, I need to recalculate my price and currency to correctly update all prices on the COL.However, in DevTools I can see that manual edit and the command “Recalculate Price/Currency” both use the ValidateBaseSaleUnitPrice to calculate prices. My problem is that workflow doesn’t support this call as it contains ValidationRec, which is an array, as an input parameter.So, does anybody know how to recalculate my prices prior to patch in a workflow?

When a Supplier has more than one address and we change this address in the "Supplier Document Address" field on the "Supplier" tab of the "Request For Quotation" screen, this document is not loaded into the Purchase Order (PO); the PO continues to retrieve the Supplier's default value.Is this a bug?

Hello, How can we automatically update the country of origin information for the proforma invoice? For the BatchSince 23R2, it's possible to enter the country of origin when a purchase order arrives, based on the field "Country of Origin" configured in the "Supplier for Purchase Part” view.With the following rule, Priority order for default Country of Origin:Manufacturers Country Country of Origin from Order Line (only no part lines) Country of Origin from Supplier per Part Country of Origin from Inventory Part But how do you enter this value for manufactured items ? Where should the information be configured ?Because in the case of distribution orders between two sites or companies, the information is not updated. A message informs us that it is impossible to update the batch. Except that we need this information without having to enter it each time we declare arrival.

Hi All,Has anyone configured a custom field in the My Purchase Order Authorizations screen?I am looking to display the following as custom fields within that page: PO Header Note PO Change Order Header Note The requirement is to make these visible during the authorization process.If anyone has implemented something similar, I would appreciate your guidance. Thanks in advance for your insights.Harsha

Hello, we have a situation where we send material to a supplier and they provide us with a credit (i.e. no physical parts).  The process can take months and we want to know how much is at the supplier waiting for credit.  Ideally, we would have a purchase part (non-inventory) created on the purchase order line, be able to issue materials randomly.  Once the supplier has assessed the materials they determine the credit and report back to us.  So there is no correlation between the material sent and the amount of credit received.  While the material is at the supplier we would like to have the visibility of the material in our outside processing warehouse.  When the PO is received for credit, all the material issued to that line would be backflushed from the outside processing warehouse.We are on IFS Cloud 24R2Thanks in advance. 

Need some advise please We are using Rental Workbench to control external supplier hire. We created a Date Exception ID to not pay for bank holidays. This means transactions will not generate for those days. However some suppliers have charged us for these days, we have tried to create a manual event at standard 100% price factor on that day, however it records the manual event but will not create transactions for that missing date. I have tried removing the date exception ID and repeating the steps but this still does nothing. We now cannot match invoices because there is a cost of a single day missing, hoping there is an easy front end fix to this issue! 

Hi community!My customer is going to start using Internal trade between there companies A and B. Now er need to figure out how to fix the return of material as smooth as possible. Is there a nice setup or solution that anyone has for this issue? The standard process seems a bit “heavy”.  In this case company A takes material from Company B´s warehouse and sometimes the material is not consumed and returned. Can you somehow have a fast track where you just return the material and all the adminastrative work is handled automaically? Thanks for any input in this matter :) Best regardsEmma 

Using IFS Cloud version 25R1.We would like to have a custom action button on the Receive with Serials fly out window:We need to be able to assign a new internal serial number for a part that is coming in for repair and has never been assigned a Serial Number.It seems documentation is saying this flyout can’t be modified with form designer.  Any help would be appreciated.

In IFS Cloud, we set up the customer order delivery lead time per customer adress with the customer supply chain matrix.But, when using single occurence adress; this delivery lead time is not updated.So, is there a way to create a supply chain matrix per county and not per customer adress??In others words, is there a way to set up lead time on higher level than the customer??Thanks in advancePhilippe

Similar to the Cardex (P4111) in JDEdwards, is there a way to see a running inventory balance (quantity) of a part?
