Duplicating customer order lines and the price?

When duplicating a customer order line, why does the price not also get copied over? The quantity does but not the price. Our units are second hand so the price varies so we do not have fixed pricing on our sales part. What is currently happening is the price of £0.00 on our sales part is what is populating the Price on the duplicated line rather than the price from the line it was copied on. is there a way to change this, selecting price freeze doesn't seem to stop this.

Purchase Order Not Being Automatically Created

Hello,We’ve changed some of our parts to be Primary Supplier Transit on their Sales Part Record. We have Customer Orders currently in the Planned state that contain these parts. I had assumed that if I change the Supply Code of these parts on the Customer Order to be Purch Order Trans, that their PO’s would be automatically created when the job was released. I’m finding that this is not the case. Automatic PO creation was working in our TEST environment if I created a new Customer Order with the changed parts on them and then released the Customer Order. The automatic PO creation just doesn’t seem to be working on Customer Orders that were already created before the parts’ Sales Part sourcing option was changed. Anybody have any ideas?

Transport Task - Customer Order

Good Morning Community,  Is there a way to create a Transport Task within a Customer Order in either the planned or released status that allows for a direct Peg to be achieved?  I see an order Ref option in the Transport Task screen but cannot get a direct connection.  This could also apply to Work Orders or Shop Orders as well. Thank You

Material Requisition Cannot be Closed

Test PlanCreated and released 2 Material Requisition lines for 2 different Purchase Parts on the same MR.  RMB on each of the above lines show that 2 Purchase Requisitions created respectively. [No Project connection] Both the PRs processed and converted to the Pos. Out of the two, only one PO is received and closed. After issuing the materials of the relevant line of that PO, the MR header is in ‘Partially Delivered’ state Now the user cancels the other PO and selects ‘No’ to the question to reopen PR lines. So the PR remains in the closed state Now how shall I close the MR?The user actually changed the Due Qty to zero on the MR line and tried to remove the line. But it gives the following message.“The Material Requisition Line Demand “1” is used by 1 rows in another object (Material Requisition Purchase Order) IFS App9 UPD14IFS Support Case ID CS0109018

We do not wish to use Sales Part Cross reference functionality .

Is there a basic data setup that makes the system use Sales Part Cross Reference.  We have recently upgraded to VS10 and did not have to use this in VS8.  How do we stop this error occurring - ORA-20110: ExternalCustOrderLine.CUSTOMERPARTNOERROR: Customer's part number ****** does not exist in sales part cross reference.

Aging report/turnover analysis

We are a relatively new IFS user (14 months). All I want is a simple aging report from IFS.  Does this software not accomplish this?  How can it not have a canned or easy to create Aging Inventory report?  I have run turnover rate analysis, but it gives inaccurate data as compared to Inventory Parts In Stock or transactions history.  This is unacceptable.  This data for almost any retailer, manufacturer etc is critical.  Why is there not even a manual to be able to help intelligent people like myself who is a CPA and went to law school be able to figure things out?

Indivisible Quantities in Inventory

Hello,Our customer has spools of wire in inventory,  Each may have different lengths of wire.  One thing is certain, they quantity that they need has to be continuous.  The could supply 500 ft from a 600 ft Qty in Stock for a single item.  But, they cannot supply 500 ft with a 400 ft piece and a 100 ft piece.  They use the term “Indivisible”.We’re looking for a way to tell the system that we only want to pick from a single spool and not have it think that even though we have have plenty in stock, that we can fulfill that demand by use two or more lengths.Has anyone worked a solution for this? Thank youPatrick

How to freeze charges in a purchase order

Dear all,when creating a PO and its PO lines, purchase charges are automatically fetched according to the setup. However, if we decide to remove one of the charge, this one is automatically re-applied when updating the quantity and delivery dates (same if we set the charged qty to 0). Do you know if there is a way to freeze the charges on a PO?Thanks for your replies 😀

Custom page with an existing logic unit

Hi, We are using IFS V9, I noticed we can create a new custom page with an existing logic unit, but if we do like this the existing logic unit can’t be edit in the new page. For instance I want to create a new page for customer order lines for planners to confirm planned delivery date, because the standard customer order lines function include price information which should be limited to access. Is it possible to create a new page like customer order lines but having limited columns and users can also edit the columns like customer order lines?  Thank you very much.

Notes in Count Per Inventory Part screen

Hi,I want to find the table that the “Notes” field in “Count Per Inventory Part” is stored in (see below). It is not a custom field,  and there is no SQL column for it in the “System Information” panel. The debug window doesn’t tell me where it is coming from, the logical unit does not have anything on it either.Thank you for any replies.

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

Inter-Purchase Direct Transaction Cost Issue

Hi Community,We have Inter-Purchase Direct transaction which is supplied by a Shop Order.This is giving a cost issue when Direct Delivery is registered - below error comes. Also, we see a Discarded status Incoming Delivery Notification (DIRDEL) for this exact PO line.The same PO has some other lines with Invent Order Supply code and they have registered without any issue and Incoming Delivery Notification is Approved status.Does any one know how to troubleshoot this?I tried to check in EDI message handling and I do not see a column for COST in there. So, how Cost from Supply site is taken to Demand Site?And our Internal Orders are with 0.01 Prices. ThanksGayan

Change Default setting of 'Release for Mtrl Planning flag' on a Customer order line

Hi All,Can the 'Release for Mtrl Planning' flag on a customer order line set to default as unchecked when the order header is in the Planned status and only check when the customer order header is released. The default in IFS standard is to have this checked and user to uncheck. Speaking to our technical team it looks like we may need to create a custom event for this, but I wondered if anyone knew of a standard way to do? Thanks,Susan

How to cancel wrongly closed, unpegged Direct Delivery PO?

Hi!Case:Direct Delivery orders CO + PO were done Customer Order lines were unpegged from the PO After that related Direct Delivery Purchase Order was closed with “register direct delivery” (and the supplier invoice was matched and paid) Now the Customer Order is hanging in status released (unpegged from the original closed PO). How to cancel the wrongly closed direct delivery PO? RMA from CO is not available since the order was unpegged. Nor can we do an RMA manually from scratch as the CO is not delivered.

avoid Handling Unit picking when picking entire HU to shipment

Dear community,Situation: in the main warehouse we are working with HUs - plastic bins that contain smaller parts. These bins remain in that warehouse. Parts are picked out of the bin into a shipment area. Mostly this works fine, except when a bin contains the exact amount of parts on a pick line: in this case IFS assumes that the entire HU is picked and moves the bin onto the shipment location:2 CO line reservations, 1 for a complete stock record and 1 where only a part of the stock record is needed: 2. the pick list, notice that IFS picked up an ‘outernmost HU’ for the stock record that is picked entirely:3.The picked lines in the shipment inventory:In reality the HU 166 stayed in the main warehouse just like the other bin (136) is there any way to avoid IFS core logic from doing this? And if not, is there any way to unattach the stock record from this HU 166 in this stage? So far the only way I found is to attach the line to a shipment and then unattach on the shipment (and then rem

Selling single item with different pack quantities

Hi AllI am new here and new to IFS. We have a requirement where a customer might buy e.g. 18x PARTAWe actually stock PARTA in bags of 1, 5 and 10 for ease of picking/packing/handling.As far as the customer is concerned they are buying 18x PARTA, however in the background we know the most effective way of picking/packing these parts is 1x BAG OF 10, 1x BAG OF 5 and 3x BAG OF 1.We operate with price breaks, so 1-5 of PARTA would be £x, 6-10 would be £y and 11+ would be £z. Option 1In an ideal world we would just add 18x PARTA onto the customer order, and the stores would be told to pick/pack 1x BAG OF 10, 1x BAG OF 5 and 3x BAG OF 1.This means that the price break side of things works correctly. Option 2The other option would be that we add 1x BAG OF 10, 1x BAG OF 5 and 3x BAG OF 1. to the order, but then the price breaks get messed up and the customer ends up paying more for the goods. Does anyone have any thoughts on how we can achieve Option 1? Or any other approaches we could look at
