Dear Community,As per my understanding the MRP-job deletes unreleased purchase order requestions (status=planned). This is how it is also described in IFS online documentation “Phases of MRP” in Phase 1, as attached below.However, at our customer (IFS Cloud 24R1), released purchase requisitions are also deleted and recreated by the MRP job (new ID, status planned) Is this a bug,is there a new setting/a new behaviour of IFS Cloud?Thank you for your help.  

Hi all, Relative newbie company having not long gone live. - First time posting! We’ve been asked a question as to whether it is possible to limit where users can issue stock from? We have a ‘PROD’ location no where we want our users to to issue parts from but, there are other locations which should not be picked from - including ‘IN - PICK’. Ultimately, we want the logged in user to use Manual issue shop order material line to have a limited view as to where they can issue from. massive thanks in advance for any replies.

We have a Released RMA with the Credit Chargers lines which has denied by mistake. Now need to Cancel the entire RMA as the user doesn’t need to proceed with it. But system throws an error as the credit chargers are in denied status. Let us know the possible solution to Cancel the entire RMA. Thanks in advance.

This is for IFS APPS 9.  We have just had to move our Demand Plan server from one physical server to another.   The Windows service is running fine.   I log in and I see in the Demand Plan Server  routine under TAB Server Dashboard, the new server running… green light, and the correct Host: NXIFSDB9.NXSTAGE.COM.     Every other user still sees the old server.   I have asked them to log out, reboot their laptops and come back in, and they all still see the old server host.    What do I need to do to get all of the other users to see the new Demand Plan server?    Thanks!  

I need to add a Note text to a Quick report and could not find a place where it is stored.  

How are Suppliers added to the Approved Supplier List?   There is an “approved” toggle in the quality section of the Supplier>Purchase application, but it does not seem to add to the ASL.

Getting this error only for Purchase Order line excel migration. Can somebody help? 

we are trying to do an inter-site stock transfer from Site 02 to Site 01, using a PO and CO as we want to receive the stock into the receiving site (01) with the freight charges included in the inventory value. When we do this currently, with customer/supplier records set as "Internal", when we receive the inventory part, it stamps the inventory value as the inventory value from Site 02 and completely ignores the prices and charges on the PO. Is there a way to include transport charges into the inventory value when doing inter-site purchase?

Hi,  I got this error message after I revised my PO. and want to update the PO. can someone advice me?appreciate if someone can help me. Thank you.

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

There is a purchase order authorization rule with two steps Step 01- Authorizer A with a limit of 500Step 02- Authorizer B with a limit of 1000Expected resultsWhen a purchase order is created for a amount of 300 only Step 01 will be valid for the original authorization.- Works fineNo authorization within the order amount in change order - - Works fineA change order will be created and the amount will be changed to 700 , Here I need both the steps A and B to be included for authorization of the change order.- Does not work as expected. When I use the below set up on company level , it does not pick any authorization for the change order when the amount is changed to 700.If I do not use this tick it will just pick the step 01 considering the delta amounts.Can anyone explain how to use this set up properly to achieve the expected results? Summary of the question   

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 tools would you recommend?

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
