Time registrations to Shop Order Operations: why it's possible even if shop order and connected project is closed?

Dear IFS Community,I have a question regarding the ability to register time to shop order operations even after the shop order and the connected project have been closed.In our organization, we've encountered situations where our employees have accidentally recorded time to shop order operations, and we've noticed that the system allows this even if the shop order and the connected project is closed (i.e. project management project is in closed status and financial project is in completed status).I am curious to understand why system allows this and whether this intended functionality within IFS Applications, or is it a configuration setting that we are able to adjust?As a consequence, both the financial project, the project management project and the related activity need to be reopened to transfer the transactions to General Ledger- This results in unnecessary extra work for anyone performing the transfers.Another issue this creates is that time registration is prone to errors, as it

Sequence in Master Schedule

Hello All, I am facing an annoying thing in IFS Cloud… when I make a selection of items which I want to plan the following happens. If I go to the Supply and Demand section in the Master Schedule and make a change to a shop order and go back to the Master Schedule the item I just did moved to the top and I need to find the next item in the list. If you need to do that a few times that is not a problem, but more it gets really annoying. IFS, can something been done about that please??? Best RegardsCarlo

B2B Supplier Portal Attachments

Has anyone out there recently started having problems with communicated PO’s not showing PDF copies of PO’s on the B2B Supplier Portal? Everything for us was working fine for years until recently. Now, when our puchasing department communicates a PO, it may or may not send the PDF of the PO to the portal. It happens randomly and it hard to reproduce. If a user goes back into a failed PO and re-communicates the PO, it will work without anything having changed otherwise. It can happen at any time of the day, to any user, and to any supplier. We recently patched IFS and, coincidentally, this is about the timeframe when the problem started, though we can’t say for sure that is related.

IFS APP 10 Availability control ID only working for certain Inventory parts

Hi All,There is an issue I’m facing in IFS APP 10 environment regarding applying Availability control ID. When we set a value for ‘Default Part Availability bin value’ for the inventory location some of the inventory parts which are receiving to that location(Using move inventory part) are getting the Availability control ID, but some are not.As far as I know all the inventory parts which are receiving to that location need to be applied with the Availability control ID. Can anyone understand the reason for this kind of an issue.Thanks,Nadeeka

Force reserve or pick of full HU's

Consider the following scenario:Customer produces foil which is stored on roles (handling units), the qty is not a fixed given. So .e.g. there are 3 rolls on stock:HU 1: 1100 kg of foil HU 2: 1080 kg of foil HU 3: 980 kg of foil Total on stock is 3160 kg of foil A shipment order was planned op front for 3000 kg's of foil, when reserving the first 2 HU's are reserved in full and on HU 3 only 820 kg's is reserved.It is not allowed to break down HU's, it is expected that they will be shipped in full.Is there any way we can get passed this? Ideally we would like to make sure that for certain HU types we only allow them to be reserved and shipped in full, breaking down is not allowed.Does IFS Cloud currently hold functionality with which we can handle such a scenario.

Connect two series ids for customer invoices

Hi All,In my case, user creates customer order and when it release, application creates customer invoice automatically. The series id picks for the CO invoice base on invoice type in default. Before print the invoice does user has any change to change the invoice type? I have a requirement to have different invoice number sequence for special invoices. If we have chance to change the different invoice type, we can set unique sequence for that. But in application Invoice Type field shows as read-only. What option I have to fulfil this requirement? Is it possible to keep two series for customer invoices? Regards,MalinG

Creating a Transport Task with 2 Users, 3 Locations

Here is a scenario: I want to move a Part from one location to a drop-off by one user; then I want another user to move that part at the drop-off to different location. Currently, I must create a Transport Task moving it from location to drop, then when until that is finished; then create another Transport Task moving it from drop to location. There has to be a way where I can create just ONE Transport Task programing that second move by another user, no? Does anyone do this, or have a way around this? Thanks,Tony

Inventory Part Availability Planning - Supply Code

Hello together,we are using Apps10 and the menu “Inventory Part Availability Planning” actually gives a great overview of demands and supplies for specific inventory parts.Unfortunately, at least from my point of view, the supply is shown incorrectly. Here in my case IFS would consider a purchase requisition in status “planned” as a planned receipt into stock. The same would happen if I transform the PR into PO but don’t release it. Then status of part is released but PO is still planned. If I would use this information for a demand and supply planning and give it to our purchase manager, he would calculate with an entry of 10 parts in the near future. Which is wrong because we never sent out the PO. Is there any setting in IFS where only PO in status “released” are considered as a supply? Thanks and regards, Stefan

View the Invoice Text in Customer Invoice Header once Printed

Invoice text that added at the preliminary stage of the customer invoice is not viewable once the invoice is printed. Invoice text can be added or edited only when the invoice is in Preliminary state. Once Printed, no invoice text can be added or edited. This is to make sure that nothing will change after printing the invoice.After printing the invoice, Invoice text only can be found at the bottom of the printed invoice as the ending text. This cannot be found in the application once printed. This is the intended behavior of the application.

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.

Intersite - Price Freeze and error Registering Arrival

Hello IFS Community!In this workflow we have a 4-Level Intersite PO:What we call “the Order Desk” (L1) The Product Line in USA (L2) The Product Line in Canada (L3) The manufacturing facility (L4)Going into the details as to why the PO matrix is structured that way would be going on a tangent, and to make this post as short as possible (is likely going to be long anyways as the problem is not easy to be described) I’m going to concentrate on our issue.Take this PO for example (where you can see the 4 levels stacked up nicely in the Supply Chain Customer Order Analysis screen)Our issue can be summed up like this: after releasing a L1 CO, IFS goes and automatically creates subsequent Level 2 CO and PO, Level 3 CO and PO and Level 4 CO and Shop Order (where the component really gets manufactured) for us. After that, eventually the work gets done, Shop Order is Closed, items are shipped to customer, the Level 4 CO Invoiced, etc, etc. So far so good.And then the problem looms: in one (and o
