I am using IFS Demand Plan 4.0.2.16 APPS9. I am trying to figure out if the Std Forecast Model (EWMA Level) overrides the Forecast Model (Manual) field and Std Seasonal Profile (Automatic) overrides the Season Profile (3x Yearly - 162 during the create forecast job. Can someone provide input?    

Hello, on both of these pages it appears the status for Distribution Orders is programmed to show the status of its associated Purchase Order and not the actual DO status. (I believe IPAP inherits ‘Status’ from MPMS). Should this be considered a bug?If not a bug, I’d appreciate any takes on why and advice on a method to show true Distribution Order status in IPAP like is possible in Material Plan page via custom attribute. It appears IPAP page - OrderSupplyDetail entity does not support custom attributes at this time.Thank you!

Hi! I’ve created shipment order between remote warehouse and site (remote warehouse → site). Remote warehouse is in the same site as destination site. I’ve sent and delivered the shipment. Now I want to receive shipment order using: Shipment Management → Inbound Shipment → Register ArrivalsIs it possible to receive shipment order to location that is actually in remote warehouse (the source one or another, doesn’t matter, the source one preferably) which belongs to the destination site? I can’t make this happen and I wonder if it’s matter of parametrization or it’s just not allowed.

Do you have any idea why I’m receiving the following background job error when attempting to invoice? Please advise on how to resolve this. This is our first time invoicing consignment inventory parts.Ownership Consignment is not allowed for this supply code.                    ORA-20105: ServiceInvoice.SERVICEINVERROR 

Is it possible to have a part automatically populate in ‘Inspection Management’ after so many x amount of deliveries?I have tried using the Triggers such as ‘Interval Scheduled’ and set the Interval for 3, but I still have the part appear in Inspection Management for every delivery. If anyone has any idea on how to do this or if it isn't possible, it would be very much appreciated :)

Hi All,I create a package part and I’m surprise that I cannot reserve the unit via the Customer Order page but to be Reserve via the Quick Order Flow Handling.And second, once reserved and picked, I create my handling unit and attach the part to it but I can’t find it in Handling Units in Shipment Inventory, giving no results. Looking for via Shipment ID, cust order nº or handling units Id.Something strange as well is the message when open the TREE, “Qty without attached reservations:1”which is something I do not get for regular/standard customer orders.Thanks in advance.

Good afternoon; I am experiencing an issue whereby Perform Putaway is creating Transport Tasks which cannot be executed.   We have defined a multi-zone putaway for part number A: Ranking 1 = storage zone of a single bin location to store loose quantities of part number A ( not on a handling unit ).  Dims and volume capacity have been specified for the bin and Inventory Part Storage Requirements have been defined for part number ARanking 2 = a storage zone made up of several bin locations, with handling unit capacity set to 1. When I execute Perform Putaway on a quantity of part number A (unattached to a handling unit), I receive a Transport Task with a To Location No as defined in the storage zone for ranking 1.  This is performing as expected.   However, if I execute Perform Putaway  on multiple handling units of part number A, I again receive a Transport Task with a To Location No as defined in the storage zone for ranking 1.  This would not be expected, as the bin location does not

Hi All, When inter-site flow is executed, is there a mechanism to transfer external customer order line's price towards internal purchase order line and supply site's customer order line.

Hello Team !  I need to input a global internal transport leadtime (of the ‘From external supplier’ variety) that applies across all registered suppliers (we have 800+ in our database) for a given ‘Ship-via’ option : is there a way to do this without manually creating 800+ items in the ‘Supply Chain Matrix for Supplier’ screen - one for each Supplier address ?Any help will be greatly appreciated - thanks in advance :) Julien

In doing some testing, I’ve noticed some strange behavior with the rebate functionality where Final Rebates are being calculated when minimum Sales Target have not been reached.Environment: 24R1 SU2Business Scenario:Rebate Criteria: Percentage Agreement Type: Use All Sales Parts Periodic Settlement: N/A Final Settlement: Yearly Customer Hierarchy: Will be used.  Deal for all Sales Part Periodic Rebate, Rebate Cost are set to 0% Final Settlement is set as Min Sales: 10,000 – Final Rebate: 4% Min Sales: 20,000 – Final Rebate: 5% Test Cases:Create Customer Order with a total of $100. Reserve, Pick, Ship, Invoice Rebate Transaction is created as expected Run Final Settlement Selecting the Agreement and Date A settlement gets created for $4. Why is a settlement getting created for $4 when the target sales minimum is 10,000 I’ve also reviewed the Aggregate_Final_Settlement function, but nothing jumps out at me to further investigate why this is the noticed behavior.  Has anyone else

Hi,customers often have parts with serial numbers. when ordering several parts, it is difficult to open the flap, select the serial number, close the flap, etc... for several'” items.I propose to review this screen as it lacks ergonomics for users. 1- Possibility of importing a CSV file for invoicing purposes  2- EDI message - INVRPT - Inventory status 3- Have a simple list screen

Environment: Apps10 Goal: We would like for our operations team to only be able to manually issue from Floor Stock locations and to only see inventory in Floor Stock locations when manually issuing. Current Process: managing this via an availability control and a custom event. Inventory in a picking location has the availability control AFB99, which cannot be issued from. When moving the inventory to a floor stock location, we use a custom event to clear the availability control so it can then be issued from.Challenge: Since the event requires a move to the floor stock location prior to removing the availability control, the inventory goes into the floor stock location with an AFB99 control. This becomes problematic when we move multiple pieces of inventory to the same location with the same part/lot combination because we then have two different availability controls so a wdr number is required to move the material. This wdr requirement is causing issues in the plant because it is a f

I have place and ICO (Purchase Order) on my factory. They have now decided to dispatch the materials by the agreed freight term over to us.Is there any way the materials location on IFS10 can be changed to reflect the same being in transit? Any report or tracker which I can utilize to monitor the materials in transit?Could anyone urgently assist on the same please as I have close to 50 containers headed my way but with no traceability other than MS Excel sheets which are cumbersome to manage.

Hi,When an Apps 10 user runs a query they can select the “Advanced” tab and run their query using some Group and Sum functions. This Group and Sum feature does not seem to be available in IFS Cloud 24R1. Has anyone encountered the same limitation?Has anyone resolved this limitation.A good example of this would be to use the group and sum features to;List a sum of the internal cost of stock grouping by Site. Hope to hear back from someone soon.Thanks,Steve Barker 

Hi, A customer contact does not receive customer order confirmation e-mails. However, in the order history, I can see a record when I click on e-mail order confirmation for this contact. Also, this emails I cannot find in application messages as well.However other contacts of this customer do receive order confirmation without any issue.Do I need to check anything in the IFS person/contact setup to resolve this?Thank you.

Environment: Apps 10 Goal: Our company needs to limit issuing to only floor stock locations. When manually issuing materials, we would like to only see the material in the floor stock locations as an option to issue.  Current Practice: We are managing this via an availability control and a custom event where inventory in a picking location has the availability control AFB99 which is then removed when moving the inventory to a floor stock location. AFB99 does not allow issuing so stock in that control does not appear as an option when trying to manually issue material.Issue:  When we move material from picking to floor stock, it initially keeps that AFB99 control before the event removes it. Therefore, if another inventory stock record has the same part/lot combination and already exists in the floor stock with no Availability Control (which is very common), wadaco requires a wdr number. We would prefer not to utilize the wdr number regularly since it is a free field so operations has t

I’m trying to find a history log of user ID changes to part specific data i.e. planner type, safety stock, lead times? This would be very useful!  IFS applications 8 

The customer noticed that when trying to print old customer invoices(PDFs that have been migrated from file storage to cloud storage) using "Original from Archive" or "Original Duplicate," an error appears in the Print Manager view: "Failed to getFullXML: null Caused by: null." The reports can only be printed by selecting "Reprint Modified."Is there a specific reason this might be happening? Any insights or solutions would be greatly appreciated!

We have been attempting to use consolidated Shop Order Pick Lists. However, we have a business process that forces us to have our finish goods shop orders at a lot size of “1” for each finished good. We may complete 8-15 of these in a day in a single assembly line, so the materials group would like to pick them all at once in bulk for the 8-15 finish goods and have their pick lists match this process. Ideally if the Shop Order Pick List could be consolidated further so that any matching part number and location with a sum of qty, this would solve our issue, but we’d also like it to be ONE transaction line (not just a printed report change like in this post) because we’re using scanners to complete the transactions.   Is this possible?  And if not, are there alternatives to further consolidate these Pick Lists by PN and Location so that we can more quickly and accurately get product from our warehouse to our production floor?
