Supply Chain

Hello All, Here is my situation. I have a customer on Apps10 that has multiple remote locations (field reps) that hold fixed amounts of inventory, that need to be replenished frequently. The replenishment inventory comes from an FGI warehouse onsite. The customer services people use a spreadsheet to determine if a replenishment is required and then create transport tasks manually.I know that the easiest and simplest way to create is to use Kanban, however this customer does not own Kanban so we are trying to use Remote warehouses with replenishment via Putaway zones. The crazy thing is as I’ve tried things here and there I have gotten things to work on some parts but not others, and I can’t seem to find how I got it to work.I’ve included all my setup in the attached document. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a case in IFS 10 where I need 4 operations on a shop order on the same work center. I would then afterwards like to connect these 4 operation with 4 operations from other shop orders in a block. But it is not possible to add more operations on a shop order to the same block, why?

Hello everyoneI would like to use supplier reminders to have these two types of cases:1/ Request a confirmation reminder if the purchase order is not confirmed 2 days after its creation date.(with daily reminders)2/Ask for a delivery confirmation reminder two days before delivery. (with daily reminders) 3/I'd also like email reminders, what type of method should I choose from the supplier? I've seen that there are fields to be filled in by the supplier, but nothing works...Please help me. !!  

Whilst completing a transaction in IFS this is the error message I get - it is not for all parts it’s for a specific.ORA-20111: InventoryPartConfig.NOTEXIST2: The Inventory Part Config Cost object does not existCan anyone help with this?Or point me in the right direction. 

Hello IFS Community,I have a question about the site MRP run. We’re experiencing an issue where, if an MRP run fails, it doesn’t provide clear information about which data might be missing—for instance, if a part doesn’t have a BOM assigned, etc. How do you handle this? Have you built a custom lobby for this or modified an existing one? I would really appreciate any ideas, suggestions, or even solutions.Best regards,Daniel

Hi,we have a business requirement to provide Provision to connect to Customer Order with Project if ‘Delay Cost of Goods sold to Delivery Confirmation’ check box is enabled at Customer order level. Current standard functionality does not allow the same and system throws an error “Project Connected order lines are not allowed when Cost of Goods Sold is delayed to Delivery Confirmation” if we try to connect project activity when the ‘Delay Cost of Goods Sold to Delivery confirmation’ flag is checked.I am trying to understand the business logic against this validation. also, on the impact in case we have to remove this validation as per customer requirement ? Any inputs from community is appreciated.

If I want to post provided parts from a purchase order at goods receipt with the backflush function, I get the following error message although there are enough parts available at the selected storage location. It can also be ruled out that the availability control ID is preventing the posting:Error - IFS ApplicationsNo adequate quantity is available for part XXXX.Assign a quantity to backflush manually via the Components button. Does anyone know the reason and has a solution?

I try to send a notification email and the email body contains the email text as well as the formatting characters. Please, could you advise what setting need to be corrected to get rid of the formatting characters.

Hello, on both of these pages it appears the status for Distribution Orders is programmed to show the status of its associated Purchase Order and not the actual DO status. (I believe IPAP inherits ‘Status’ from MPMS). Should this be considered a bug?If not a bug, I’d appreciate any takes on why and advice on a method to show true Distribution Order status in IPAP like is possible in Material Plan page via custom attribute. It appears IPAP page - OrderSupplyDetail entity does not support custom attributes at this time.Thank you!

Hi! I’ve created shipment order between remote warehouse and site (remote warehouse → site). Remote warehouse is in the same site as destination site. I’ve sent and delivered the shipment. Now I want to receive shipment order using: Shipment Management → Inbound Shipment → Register ArrivalsIs it possible to receive shipment order to location that is actually in remote warehouse (the source one or another, doesn’t matter, the source one preferably) which belongs to the destination site? I can’t make this happen and I wonder if it’s matter of parametrization or it’s just not allowed.

Hello,My customer has this error message when he tries to issue a reserved material line : “ The quantity reserved for part XXX on site XXX at location XXX should not be negative.” Thanks for your help. 

Hi All,I create a package part and I’m surprise that I cannot reserve the unit via the Customer Order page but to be Reserve via the Quick Order Flow Handling.And second, once reserved and picked, I create my handling unit and attach the part to it but I can’t find it in Handling Units in Shipment Inventory, giving no results. Looking for via Shipment ID, cust order nº or handling units Id.Something strange as well is the message when open the TREE, “Qty without attached reservations:1”which is something I do not get for regular/standard customer orders.Thanks in advance.

Good afternoon; I am experiencing an issue whereby Perform Putaway is creating Transport Tasks which cannot be executed.   We have defined a multi-zone putaway for part number A: Ranking 1 = storage zone of a single bin location to store loose quantities of part number A ( not on a handling unit ).  Dims and volume capacity have been specified for the bin and Inventory Part Storage Requirements have been defined for part number ARanking 2 = a storage zone made up of several bin locations, with handling unit capacity set to 1. When I execute Perform Putaway on a quantity of part number A (unattached to a handling unit), I receive a Transport Task with a To Location No as defined in the storage zone for ranking 1.  This is performing as expected.   However, if I execute Perform Putaway  on multiple handling units of part number A, I again receive a Transport Task with a To Location No as defined in the storage zone for ranking 1.  This would not be expected, as the bin location does not
