Purchase (raw) for MS Level 1

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?

I would like to have an Inventory Part overview window with columns like:Site Part Code Part Description Planning Method Safety Stock Lotsize etc.Does IFS Cloud have such an overview or do I need to create a Quick Report or likewise to view this information?I know there is MRP Part Information, but that is a 1 record window and not an overview

Inventory Part Status best practice?

When working with Inventory Part statusses there are basicly 2 options:Use a minimum number of statusses based on the possible combinations of settings. For example:Encode the different departments in the status so you know who at any moment is responsible (when creating new parts or updating them)Any comments on how this is done are welcome :-)

visualizer is not appearing in Inventory Part Availability Planning

Hello, we are running IFS APPS 10 (Enterprise Explorer) Update 8 and for some reason we cannot seem to get the visualizer gadget to appear on our IPAP screen. We have it in our shop orders screen and have granted every thing we can think of under permission sets and we have checked profiles and still cannot get it to appear. Someone asked this question a year ago and no-one really answered it other than saying to check configurations and that’s what we’ve done but we don’t know where else to check. thank you for the help!

Pick by Choice

Hello,I have a question around pick by choice. I have a pick list which contains 10 Handling Units which have been reserved against a shipment. I process the pick using WADACO Report picking of handling units. If I’m asked to pick handling unit 1 but it’s at the back of handling unit 2 so I pick handling unit 2 instead of 1 what should happen? Should handling unit 1 be unreserved or should it stay reserved? I’m seeing sometimes an unreserve and sometimes a re-reserve.What should be the outcome?Thanks,Jamie

How to stop automatic creation of Purchase Requisition before without approving the Incoming Customer Order

Hi All,Currently facing the issue during customer order process. Created the CO line with “supply Code: Int Purch Dir” and released the CO. Then, demand PO will be created against the CO line. Finally before approving the “Incoming Customer Order”, automatically Purchase requisition is created in Planned status. I have tried with running the MRP before approving the “Incoming Customer Order”. But system should not create a Purch Requisition before approving the “Incoming Customer Order”. So kindly suggest to stop the generation of Purch Requisition before approving the “Incoming Customer Order”.  Thanks in advance for your understanding.Shiraj

Master Scheudling: Demand without planning parmater

When calculating the MS or MRP planning parameters are taken into account, such as the Min. Lot Size. Here the demand is 3500 pieces, the Purch Req. of course 5000 pieces. In Purch. Req. I see the 5000 pieces, but not the original requirement of 3500.Is there a possibility that I can also see the original demand of 3500?Is there a standard solution here?Thanks for your tips

Implications of Unreceiving a Part

Hi all, Wondering if anyone has dealt with unreceiving a part in IFS. Specifically, let’s say there is the following scenario: Receiver in warehouse receives items on PO 12345. After completing receiving, it is discovered that something is wrong with part/they over received/or something else causing the need to “Unreceive” parts.  Does anyone have this function turned on in IFS and if so, do you have some pros & cons and best practices on dealing with these situations?Any information on what potential implications could arise from unreceiving - first thought is Finance with invoicing, etc.  Thank you,Steph
