Supply Chain

I am receiving an error when trying to edit a customer order line that is released. It says cannot connect to shipment because all package components have been supplied by internal purchase direct supply. Any ideas? Seems to only happen for supply code pkg parts (package parts). We have shipments that are auto created when a customer order line is released. IFS app10

Hi Team, One of our customer wants to remove the standard SEND_FREIGHT_BOOKING integration and get rid of the application message that are generated with the Error status. I initially instructed him to disable the below routing rule But even after disable the routing rules, they still gets the Application messages. They dont want those application messages at all as they never used this functionality. Is there a way to disable this functionality to avoid such application messages are genereted? Best regards,Kapilan

HI For those of you on Apps10 UPD11 (IEE) has anyone experienced IFS screens suddenly shutting down ?No error or warning, no pattern we have detected so far.

Dear Community, How can we change the settings so that in the event of any modification to the price of the purchase order, approvals must be taken again, because at the present time on the existing options, the price on the order may be successfully modified with the same old approvals.the screenshot below shows the current setup.  Regards

Hi Team,I’m testing “Calculate Planning Data “ function to auto populate planning data. Followings are my setup:1.Rather connecting commodity group 2 inventory part and statistical period through it , I have updated “Pred Year Cons Qty” on the inventory part2.Then I have set planning method C on inventory part3.I have enabled the safety stock, Order Point and lot size checkboxes for auto update.4.I have updated the inv interest, Ordering cost and service rate with values.After running “Calculate Planning Data “ job ( background job is ready ), system still not update any of those values.What could be I'm missing here? I have created few demands ( customer orders ) for current period as well. 

Hello,the Inventory Part  is created/connected for Site B2251in PO we bought 40l but this qty results from gathering all our demands of all sites (here 15l for site B2251 + 25l for site B2252)we didn't want to create two PRs for two different Sites because then we should create two POs while we want optimize our number of POs and our costs and we have better price depending on the qty (the more you buy the less you pay).after delivery we made receipt according to the PO to Site B2251.now, we would like to split qty of 40l to sites B2251 and B2252 - to clarify: on stock B2251 we have 40l and 25l we would like to transfer/relocate/issue to stock B2252.is it possible to do that in IFS, if so, what we should do. Regards, Kruthika

We are currently using the demand planner in IFS but are starting to reach its limitations. As a result, we're considering implementing a dedicated third-party forecasting and planning tool. Ideally, we need a solution that seamlessly (or near enough) integrates with IFS and supports planning across 18 months in weekly, monthly, and quarterly buckets. It should also include all the functions found in the current demand planner, such as promotions etc.Additionally, we are looking for optional advanced features, including:Seasonality adjustments and trend analysis. Capacity planning based on demand forecasts. Integration of supply chain constraints, such as lead times and inventory management. Scenario planning for changes in material costs or market demand fluctuations. The ability to run simulations for new product introductions or adjustments to production schedules.Do any of you have a similar setup, and what tool

Hi Team,We have set up a supplier with 2 EFT payment methodEFT 1(address id 1) using one bank accountEFT 2 (address id 2) using 2nd bank account.When we save the Eft method system is forcing to set up one as default payment method, and it is using the default payment bank details in the payment proposal.We want to know if there is a way, we don’t tick the EFT default option and have the option to choose the bank account we like to use.Thanks in advanceSneha

Hello,Can we create same item codes with 2 different sites?Regards,Kruthika

Hi Folks We are using APPS 10 and looking at the various Lot Size options within IFS, when planning MRP requirements does the system start with the Min Lot size them move to Max then multiple or does one of these options take priority over the rest? (does one supersede the other)Should the Max and Multiple be the same value?Trying to figure out of there is some logic flow to these values if all three are filled in. Min Lot Size: The value in this field indicates that the lot size for this part will be at least equal to the quantity specified. If the value is 0 (zero), the lot size will not be calculated. Max Lot Size: The maximum lot size defines the maximum size of lots generated by material requirements planning (MRP).  Multiple Lot Size: A value in this field indicates that MRP will round up net requirements to a multiple of this value when calculating the recei

We are down a person in my group at the moment and the person who normally does this step to setup a new user in IFS is not available.This said, how do I set a user default buyer like I used to do in 10 IEE in cloud? This is all I need to set and I can’t find it anywhere in cloud.

Hi All, We have two customer groups (e.g., Group A and Group B), each with one or more customers assigned to them.When creating an order for Group A using a sales part, is it possible to apply a price break to the group of customers?For example, the price group could be as follows:Min Qty: 1000, Price: $20Min Qty: 2000, Price: $15Min Qty: 3000, Price: $14In this case, I may have 2 orders for Group A (the orders would be for 2 customers), and the total ordered quantity is 2500 units. Does IFS have an option to apply the price break based on the cumulative quantity ordered across these orders?  ThanksDivya 

Hello,I am looking to understand the logic of automatic reservations for customer orders. I would assume that the lines that are due the earliest would be reserved first, and that would flow until there is no more available inventory. However, that is not what I am observing.I came across the following posts on this topic:Customer Order Lines auto-reservations, what is the field used to determine what is reserved first | IFS CommunityThis mentions there is not a way to do auto-reservations by Planned Ship Date which is ultimately what I am wanting.

Hello Community, What is business reason behind changing the Wanted Delivery Date and Promised Delivery Date of a confirmed PO line when the Ship Via Code connected to the PO line is modified .  BRChampika

We have a problem in IFS APPS 10. When a customer order is created on IFS and the order type is “XPR”, IFS will issue the part from the last location used and not its default locationI think this is because the option below is set to “All locations” and not “Only specified location”.If I change it to “Only specified location” does that mean it will only use the default location?Or do I have to set something else?Thanks   

How does Handle Customer Order Shortages work in IFS cloud. i assumed that if i placed an order on the system and there were no corresponding shop order raised prior to the required date this would show up as a customer shortage prompting me to communicate with the other business units to find out why there is no build demand  

We are recently moved to Cloud from Apps9 and have an issue where if we make a change to a Supplier Part or Description on a Supplier for Purchase Part record, these changes are not reflected in the PO lines of any open POs we have for said part. New PO lines added after the change, pick up the correct/updated part/description Does anyone know if this is ‘to be expected’, a bug, a workflow/process we’re missing, a new action required in Cloud vs Apps9? Any information gratefully received. Thanks!Linda
