Supply Chain

Hello, Can you explain to me how to use the backlog lines in the customer schedule please?Thank you.Lina

We use Demand Planner and have Purchased (raw) materials that we forecast/sell.  I have setup the part in MS Level 1 and registered a forecast manually through the MS Level 1 Register Forecast.  I ran MS - for the part and had expected to see something in the Purchase Requisition screen.  I don’t see anything there and don’t see anything in the MS Action Proposals.  Is there something special that I need to setup for this?

Hi Community,We are currently preparing for IFS cloud transition, and we are curious to know if the Inventory Negative On Hand functions differently in IFS Cloud application then it does in IFS Apps 10?Any input and comments will be deeply appreciated!Many thanks as alwaysMesh 

Is it possible to add Custom Fields onto B2B portals? And not just to display information, but also allow the B2B licenced user to fill the field out.  Here the question is specifically around Supplier and SubContractor B2B portals, but could apply for any B2B portal? 

Hi all, I have a hierarchy (parent) with more than 200 customers (child). Instead of linking my assortment to the 500 customers, I would prefer to link it to the hierarchy. In this way, the (child) customers would inherit the parent's assortment.I should point out that I can't link it to the sales prices because the prices are linked to a daily quotation.Thank youSoumia

We would like to request the addition of a custom field in the "Reference" tab of Business Opportunities. The relevant view and entity details are as follows:View: BUSINESS_OPPORTUNITY_REF Entity: BusinessOpportunityRefUnfortunately, we are unable to locate the BusinessOpportunityRef entity in the entity configurations. Additionally, it does not appear in the additional views of the entity.  Could anyone please assist in identifying the correct configuration or guide us on the next steps to add the custom field in the "Reference" tab? Is this can be implemented using standard features.

Hi all In the Shop orders operation menu, I have my selection of production orders for which I want to see the overall load.I select production orders by departmentIn my printout I have a global workload of 594h for W46 (including planned, requested etc etc production orders).When I remove the requested production orders, the graph falls back to 294h (this is normal).My problem is: I'd like to distinguish each load source in the graph (e.g. solid line for firm orders and dotted line for requested orders).How can I do this? I have this=> I want to do this to symbolise the load of the requisitioned shop orders 

Could anyone with IFS Cloud please verify if the same is popping up as at my place (I've checked two environments that are not connected, both IFS24R1)I want to see only the rows that have factor = 1. The above is the result. Makes no sense to me at all. Does this happen in your environment as well.First time in my career 😁that I could use Advanced search option:This gave me the desired result.

I have a three part question that has to do with IFS’s supply and demand capabilities:Is it possible to use enter a forecast, plan supply, and generate an MRP for a part(s) without actually generating shop order reqs, purchase reqs, or distribution orders. In other words, use IFS’s demand and supply capabilities to plan supply chain scenarios for new products that may be still be considered in a development stage (pre-production) and not yet released to market. We currently use Master Scheduling and MRP to generate supply requirements.  Is it possible to replenish certain parts (finished goods) to DC’s but restrict or not allow shipments of those parts to customers. We replenish DC’s via distribution orders from other DC’s and manufacturing plants, and direct shipments from external suppliers. We do have site supply chain matrixes setup as well as a multi-site Planning Network. Our DC’s are setup as different sites, and I am not sure if by this

Does anyone know why the Reference field appears three times on the search filter on the PO header?Found this in multiple versions (23.1.12, 24.1.4, 24.1.5). 

Hi all.Has anyone used Transformers in IFS10 to convert DESADV message?I have a customer that needs that the parts to be only once in the message. I mean, my DESADV has several labels (or several groups, I do not what it is called) for the same inventory part if this part has to be on, for example, 2 pallets, and on each pallet it is indicated how many kilos.But the customer needs only one line per inventory part with the total quantity (in this case, with the total of kilos)Is it possible to do this with Transformers? 

Hello !  I am having an issue with one of our intercompany orders we are seeing this error message: “ORA-20124: Error.NULLVALUE: Field [TAX_LIABILITY] is mandatory for Customer Order and requires a value.”I cannot see an issue with the delivery Tax information, or anything incorrect with the lines on the order. Does anyone know how I can further trouble shoot this ? Kind RegardsPaula  

Hi, I’m trying to implement a BPA workflow in IFS Cloud to automate the conversion of DOP Purchase Requisition Lines to Purchase Orders.I’ve identified two potential projection actions to use to perform the conversion, but both are unusable due to workflow limitations:PurchaseRequisitionHandling.svc/CreateRequisitionLineToOrder - Has an array parameter PurchaseRequisitionHandling.svc/CreateRequisitionLineToOrderWf - Uses COMMITHas anyone attempted this before, and maybe can share some guidance?Thanks

Hi,Does anybody know why it’s not allowing to use “Print Barcode Labels” option when selecting multiple lines from Inventory Part In Stock window. (This seems to be fine with serialized parts but not with the ones without a serial)Thanks

I have created a Manufacturing Control Plan Template and assigned this to specific Part Numbers.The control plan works fine until a new revision is made on the Product Structure or Routing, it then loses connection. The control plan then needs to be re-connected with the new revision. Is there a way to stop this from happening so the Control Plan does not disconnect from the part when a revision is created? Thank you!

Hi Team,I have set up Intersite and we are using Internal Purchase Direct (drop ship).The only challenge we are facing is the Customer will not have a requirement to manually “Register Direct Delivery”. They would like this process to be automated, where once the Supplyng Site Delivers the Customer Order, the Registering Direct Delivery would automatically be completed.Is this possible without a Configuration? Thank you,Alex

Hi All,When creating a Material Requisition to book out Inventory can you set up a favorites list?This is more for people who regularly book out the same consumables so they don’t always have to go searching for part numbers. Not sure if IFS has this capability or not. Thank you 

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?
