How to rename Operational Reports

Hello, I want to rename my operational reports when they print off. The file names are usually the Report Id with the result key. I’ve created a report rule to set property of the document file name but that didnt seem to work. Am I using this incorrectly? Everything seems fine based off of the technical documentation. Any and all advise would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,Bryan

On Time delivery and penalties for late delivery

Hi Team IFS,I would like to know how can I generate a penalty for late delivery .I mean, if a supplier does not respect the delivery date, he should pay for that extra delay with a new invoice attached to the original one.I know that it is possible to see the delivery time of each supplier but after that how can I create the feature above on IFS Cloud ?

MRP Part Information Only Shows Demand as far as the expected lead time

We are new to IFS Cloud and are wondering if we have something set wrong for our MPS/MRP.  We do have all our Level 1 MS Parts set for Create S/P Req for Entire Horizon.  When we look at components that may be 1 o 12 levels below the MS Part, we only see MRP demand as far out as the expected lead time.  We need to see the entire horizon for all parts and not just the top level.  Is there something else we need flag or set?

Does anyone know if its possible to split a customer shipment ship via by CO Line?

We have very large orders that are set up to ship say freight then the customer needs a specific line shipped via air.  Does anyone know how to set this up without having to move the line to a new Customer Order? We could always update the ship via each time but afraid it may get missed moving back for the remainder of the order.  We are IFS Apps 10. Thanks, Donna

Import Demand Plan Forecast to MS1

Running Apps 10.We were using 36 forecast periods in the Demand Planning server and importing the same periods into IFS for use with MS1 and MRP.  We recently made the decision to reduce the imported forecast periods to 18 months (periods).  It is my understanding that this is controlled via the “Date Range” field in the “Import Demand Planning Forecasts” screen.  With this range set from today through 6/7/24, IFS is still importing forecast for 36 periods.  The demands are also still visible in IPAP through November 2025, even after I recalculate MS1.We’ve tried reducing the number of forecast periods on the demand plan server to 24 months.  Importing the forecast data appears to have yielded the same results, with demand still visible through November 2025.  Shouldn’t one of these methods reduce the number of forecasted periods in the Exported Forecasts and, subsequently, IPAP?  Thanks for any help or feedback you can provide.

Separated picking locations for different customers

Hi all, Question from a customer that is thinking about acquiring a WMS solution and upgrading to IFS10 or Implementing the warehouse management features what is available in IFS (WaDaCo, handling units and the sorts). One of the questions that they have goes as followed; It must be possible to create picking zones for certain customers so 1 part can have 2 pick locations for 2 different customers groups.   The customer has the same parts for B2B and B2C commerce, but would like to pick in bulk from different locations as the B2C (small orders, mostly single lines).   Can anyone advise how to solve this issue?

Large products that are serial tracked but stored in different pallets.

A producing company assemble large units that are serial trackedThe unit is dis-assembled after finalized quality control and testing and stored in different locations and on different pallets. Challanges to be solvedKeep track of the completet unit as it is one serial no, when splitted in reality, to multiple locations The serial No cannot be splitted in inventory and placed system vice in different location, further more, no inventory movement kan be done per pallet. In shipment you cannot handle the pallets as you must have a qty in each pallet, in this case you have several pallets in reality but as it is one serial no, the qty can only be in one of the pallets. Following information about content, weight etc needed for transport booking. Yes, you can have a shipment and not add handling units but the company has a mix of products, large units packed on different pallets and in same shipment to the customer normal handling units with small parts.In short, a solution support the flo

Creating multiple Shipment Lines per Customer Order line

Hi,We are looking for a way to split a customer order line into multiple shipments (with different dates, as an example) without creating a new customer order line within the same customer order.  Other ERP systems, have the ability to build shipment lines off of a single customer order line to differentiate dates and or even shipping addresses.  Does IFS have this ability?  If so, how is this done? We currently are using custom logic to build our shop orders from customer order lines - as a result, we want to be able to have realistic ship dates on customer order lines that are split shipping at different times, without adding a new customer order line that would ultimately fire an additional shop order.  We currently wind up with false views of revenue recognition within reporting as a result of only being able to use one shipping date per customer order line. Thanks for any help/insight!

Putaway creating Transport Tasks which cannot be executed - Cloud

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

Kanban Reorder Point Request Creates Additional Transport Tasks

Hi All,I currently have the ‘Kanban Reorder Point Requests’ scheduled to run every hour. I have noticed that the new transport tasks are created each time the reorder process runs and if existing transport tasks are not executed before the scheduled job runs again, I essentially end up with too many transport tasks. Does anyone know of a way to prevent additional new transport tasks being created as long as there are existing tasks in a status of ‘created’?Here is an example kanban circuit I am testing with:
