I need to prevent a purchase part on a purchase order from having the revision number changed in register arrivals. We have tested enforcing change orders, but this does not prevent someone in the Register Arrivals stage from changing a part numbers revision. The client requires that a change order must accompany “any” change after a purchase order is released.Outside of an event or several events, is there a way to force any change on a purchase order to go through a change order?

I have my delivery site (CP005 in the screenshot) and my supply site (CP001).The problem is : when I create my CO with two lines, it creates a PO on CP005 only for the sale line, and a customer order on CP001 with 1 sale line and 1 rental line :Sale line on the original CORental line on the original COPO with only 1 qtySale line on the supply COSale line on the supply CO I would like to have in my PO parts and qty from sale and rental lines, and in the sale lines of my supply CO the same parts and qty. Did I miss something ? Is it possible to configure this process ?  Thanks

In a scenario where there is movement between 2 warehouses (within the same site) how can we include the transportation cost in the inventory cost. We have a scenario where the customer moves a significant number of items to a different warehouse within the same site. These items are heavy and there is a considerable distance between these two warehouses, therefore they are incurring a transportation cost. In such case how can we include the transportation cost in the inventory.  

Hello,My customer want to use planning method N (Next level) for a part. I tested it and it’s working well (supply is created at the release of the demande ) when part is added as component of shop order and on a material requisition.My issue is that it’s not working (supply is not created at all) when part is added on Work task. Does someone know if it should work and it’s a bug (or a lack of setup) or if it’s normal?RegardsAnthony

Hello,When running a report for aging parts from our Inventory Parts in stock page, we have multiple duplicate parts that were received on different lot batch No’s. Is there a way to prioritize shipping the oldest part received to cancel out some of these duplicate lines? I’ve noticed from this report that we will sometimes ship out a part from a newly received purchase order meaning we have an older part sitting on the shelf in the meantime. Thank you,

To all you clever IFS folk,Is there anywhere in the supplier set up that you can block the user from raising a Purchase Order (PO)? I know you can make the supplier inactive on the invoicing tab but this does not stop a user from raising and releasing a PO on the supplier? We are wanting an easy way with new suppliers to allow their setup and stop orders being placed until all QA documentation has been received. We are on our journey to Cloud but ideally need something we can put in place in Apps9 asap.Thanks Sarah
