Traceability on purchased parts with tracked components

Hi Community, I’ve got a customer who purchase serial tracked parts to a a supplier, to do so, he delivers to his supplier  manufactured serial tracked parts. When supplier delivers purchased parts, he gives for each delivered serial the list of components used Part & Serial (PN/SN). Is there any way to register this traceability structure in IFS Apps 10 ? At this time, the best I’m able to do is knowing on which PO the components were used (PN/SN), even if all parts are in multilevel tracking. NOTE : if possible, we would like not to use Shop Order with external work centers. Has anyone had an idea or a lead ? Thanks in advance, BR, Jean-Christophe

Intersite transactions with end user information

Hello all,We’ve built intersite automated transaction, where we make customer orders using the supply code “Internal Purchase Direct”. This automatically creates the PO and the intersite Customer Order.Client order → Customer Order #1 → Purchare Order intersite (automated) → Customer Order #2 intersite (automated) → Pick from inventory and direct shipment to ClientThe issue we have is the intersite CO will show the delivery address of our own company (the company sending the intersite PO).Is there a way to program the intersite transaction in order for the end-user delivery address (entered at the Customer Order #1) to show in the Customer Order #2 page? At the moment, we have the address appearing in the delivery note and the packing list, but the customer service clerk processing the intersite customer order #2 would like to see the address before printing any documents.Thank you!

customer RMA in register arrivals : inventory part does not exist error

HiWe are upgrading from 22R2 to 23R2 and are currently testing the changes as they affect us.In 22R2 we do our customer returns successfully from the RMA screens but in 23R2 this has moved to the ‘register arrivals’ screen.  Typically for us an RMA will be for 1 item among the many delivered, not the whole order, and the item being returned will be on a project activity.If we use ‘receive with serial/lots’, then it works ok.  However, if we use ‘receive parts against order deliveries’ (which is preferable for these partial returns) we get an ‘inventory part does not exist’ error.  On investigation, it appears to be checking for the returned part in activity 0 rather than the activity it is actually being returned to.17:14:32 TRACE - DATABASE {"origin":"DB","indentation":"19","time":"224614507","category":"FRAMEWORK","level":"DEBUG","type":"Key values","text":"Site: GB01, Part No: ESR-48/56B F, Configuration ID: *, Location No: PICK, Lot/Batch No: *, Serial No: VW131021032W0, Rev No: 1,

Receiving Extra Units that aren't invoiced

We purchase labels on a spool of 25,000.   Our supplier always adds an additional 500 labels (for good measure) to every spool but does not invoice us for these extra units.  When receiving in the spools, is there a way to automatically “count-in” the additional 500 units so that the quantity on our handling units reflects what is actually on the spools?  We don’t want to increase the quantity on our PO’s because we aren’t being invoiced for that full amount.  We’ve considered using the inventory conversion factor and updating it to 1.02 but our finance department is worried about UOM conversions/reports/accounting entries as well as audits.

Shipment lines management

 Hi everyone,I use a shipment to support the creation of Shipment lines from a projetc deliverable.According to the standard, the lines are created on the most recently created expedition.Question 1 : do you have an idea of how we can be able to select the Shipment No we want to create the shipment lines on, from project Deliverable?To avoid this problem, we use the work around of reassigning line on another shipment after their creation. However, we face another problem : we are able to reassign lines only one by one.Question 2 : do you have an idea of how we can be able to Reassign shipment lines massively?If you met theses problems and find work arounds, create a BPA codes or a developpments, I am very interested.Many thanks

Intrastat Regime Code 19 and 29

Hello, Since 2024, the flux intrastat with regime code 19 and 29 are needed to be valuated if the goods are exported for free.Today, those flux are considering at 0 as statistical value, and have to be changed by hand.The idea we got is, for the flux 29 (exportation), to automatically fill the “statistical value” of the intrastat with the “Custom value” in the expedition lines multiplied by quantity of exportation, to make it compliant. I attached you the PDF with the european rules, and the field in IFS “Customs Value” Traduction :a) General caseIt must be indicated in euros for each declaration line, rounded to the nearest whole unit.nearest whole unit. Lines with a value rounded to zero (or with a negative value) must not be declared.not be declared.The value to be entered on the EMEBI response form in the case of taxable movement  (schemes 11 and 21)is the fiscal value. The fiscal value includes the net value of the goods and ancillary costs (freight,insurance, distribution costs,

Inventory Part Availability Planning - Wrong linking to Work Task demand (sometimes)

In view Inventory Part Availability Planning, it happens sometimes that my customer experiences wrong linking to demand of type Work Task/Maintenance Material Requisition. The Supply/Demand link takes us to another Maintenance Material Requisition than the one the demand comes from (the Work Task that the material req is connected to may be corrrect or incorrect. Sometimes even the site is not the right one, and the part no may or may not be correct).  We are not able to re-create this in a structured way, it just happens sometimes without us understanding why. Since the customer has high security we cannot let IFS support enter the IFS instance but only the ref environment. Because of this, and since we cannot re-create it in a structured way, we cannot get help via bug report. There are no customizations present.Cloud version 23.1.14

I know that search in context is available elsewhere.

Exact "Order Date" not filtered in Purchase Orders

IssuePurchase Orders (page) > Order Date (field) – Not working correctly - PURCH This was supposed to be fixed in UPD23 but fixed in UPD24Steps:Go to "Purchase Orders" window > Populate all POsSearch from Order Date for "Exact Date". In my case I tried to search 9/14/2022 but no data found. Cause:The reason for this error lies in the database where the data is saved as "Timestamp" in the Purchase_Order table.Resolution:Based on the findings of the issue, a JIRA ticket (SCZ-25165) was generated to address it. The R&D team committed to resolving the ORDER DATE issue and incorporated fixes in the UPD23 release as outlined in the ticket. However, the error persisted in UPD23 but was successfully rectified in UPD24. The bug ID for this resolution is 168570.

Automatic Shipment Stops before parts are picked

Hi,To streamline our processes in our of our business lines we decided to automate part of the shipment process. To do so, we’ve created a Customer Order Type and a Shipment Type which both stops after the order confirmation is printed, meaning that in theory once the parts are reserved it should create a pick list, pick the parts, dispatch and invoice the order. Unfortunately, it doesn’t do that, If we reserve parts it gets stuck there though if I press “Report Reserved Quantities as Picked” it triggers the processes and it will automatically perform the steps mentioned above. My assumption is the issue lies somewhere with the pick list so I’ve added the pick list report in Report Printers and set it to No_Printout but that hasn’t changed a thing. Any advice would be welcome.Cheers !

*In title shoul be ”not” shown... (and not “now” shown...) In the view Inventory Part Availability Planning, the point is to see all demands and supply. However, for Work Task demand, as soon as a pegged purchase requisition is created, the demand dissapears from the view, and only the supply (the pegged PR) is visible,. Anyone else that has noticed this?This must be a bug, right?Using Cloud, version 23.1.14
