Supply Chain

In the Parts Order Lines tab of a Purchase Order, there is a column called “Inv Conv Fact”. Additional information for this column states, “This field displays the conversion factor between the purchase unit and the inventory unit. The formula is as follows: Purchasing unit = inventory unit * purchasing conversion factor.” We have a part which has a problem in its setup and is creating an Inv Conv Fact of 174 in this column. I’ve tried to research where the inventory unit and puchasing conversion factors are but I’m not finding them. Does anybody know where these are?

Hi All,I have a question regarding the possibility as to whether there is a possibility to block certain Sales Part for a customer. If so, please let me know.Thank you. 

I have a scenario where I would like to configure WaDaCo process REPORT_PICKING_PART to use pick by choice for serialized parts in inventory and lot/batch parts. But we also have serialized parts at receipt and issue only. According to documentation pick by choice does not work for those:The Report Picking of Parts process does not support the following:Report Picking of parts that are serial-traced at receipt and issue (but not serial-traced in inventory), when Pick by Choice setting is enabledThis means I'm forced to either make everything traceable in inventory or not use pick by choice.Anybody found a way around this? 

Community,there is a scenario we are facing, wondering how to map it in IFS?We have products need to be sent to China for coating. IFS Supplier Material function should work well with it. but recently, the products completed in China will not be sent back to Canada in all, partial will be sent to Belgium, our sister company. China supplier is not in IFS system, Belgium does. The business between China and Belgium is Buy and Sell relationship. Thank you.

Hello,We recently went through a migration where inventory parts were given the wrong UOM and inventory was migrated. How can we update the UOM to correct the issue. The qty is correct but the UOM is incorrect. Does this require a DB level change?

In the Apps 9 Shipment Lines window there was a field call “Available Qty” which is connected to the Inventory Part in Stock window. But in the Cloud environments, (21R1,22R2) this field no longer available. Does anyone know the reason for this or what is the alternative solution for this?

There was a typo in the Due Qty and Reserved Qty of a Material Requisition, and has been reserved by accident.We would like to unreserve the line or Cancel the Material Requisition all together and redowe are using the IFS Cloud.

FSM is experiencing multiple database locks daily, but cannot pinpoint specific issue(s) causing the problem(s). Have stepped through logs, sessions are remaining open. Have done queries to try and isolate the problem. Not sure if it’s related to: Mass Updates, rule execution points, rules using asynch vs. synch, a combination of things, other? Consistently seeing sessions remaining open. Any specific debug tools that can help? Thanks.

where do we link a shop order to a transport task and in what cases?is it possible to generate a transport task automatically from a shop order?And is it possible to cancel a transport task with created status, which is linked to a shop order already closed?

We accidentally created several shop order pick lists. Is there an easy way to delete them in enterprise explorer?

How can I see what delivery number a serial number shipped on?  The serial numbers show on the Delivery note, but If I want to go the opposite direction, I can’t seem to see where the serial number records what delivery note it shipped on.

Hello - if I print off a handling unit label from a shipment in Apps9 there is a space for Supplier Code - however in my system the value is null and I can’t locate where in the UI that this field gets it data from, anyone able to help me please, thanks.

 Hi Team:What could be the best way to obtain a query grouping (or counting) the parts in one location or warehouse?Why we dont have the same possibilities available than in GL Balance Analysis. ( see image ) ?  

It is possible to change the values in the tabs of Export License (path: Part Master Data > Export Control > Export License > Export License) even though the Export License State is Approved. Change of values does not Triger a state change as well. Normally when the License is in the Approved state, it makes no sense if it can be altered.For example, it is possible to add a site in Site tab. This is what it is in 21R1 to the latest.Is there any desired functionality on this?Component: EXPCTR

Hello Experts,If goods have been returned against a customer order, for which we were already payed commissions, will IFS application create any commissions lines to deduct the already payed commissions based on the credit invoiced created  ?, or do we need to manually deduct that commission amount?I did following steps in the test Instance. -Create a customer order with Qty =5 and add a commission line with commission %=10. -Process the order till Invoiced/Closed. -Ran the "Calculate Commission" job for the "Site", "Commission Receiver Group" and "Commission Receiver" combination. -It updated the record in "Commissions Per Receiver and periods" window with correct commission amount. -Then, retuned, 2 parts via RMA and created the Credit invoice. -Customer Order > Order line details > Order line details has not been updated upon "Update all Commissions"Cheers!

Hi folks,after 15 months of IFS live the ITH is up to 3.4 Mio records.That takes around 30 minutes to fetch all the data from ORACLE into MS SQL Server.I would like to load the data incremental.So the questions are:Is a ITH record fix the moment it is created or could it be changed?Is the TRANSACTION_ID “ongoing”, so we could be shure, the last (maximum)is the latest in a row? If so, I can easily fetch max(TRANSACTION_ID) from destination and use this as a filterfor the ORACLE fetch SQL command.Many thanksMichael

Hey there,How can we cancel the line in Sales Quotation or Business Opportunity with closed status?As a matter of fact, according to the attached file we have closed SQ or closed BO how can we cancel the two lines in In Progress status? All the best 

Environment: IFS Cloud Hi I have a scenario whereby a Project is created on Company A. Theres a requirement for External Rental of equipment from Supplier 123. However Supplier 123 only has an account setup with Company B.   Driving the demand and supply through the Project on Company A, is it possible to create a Rental to Supplier 123 from the Project? This is straight forward with Material, as we can create an Interco PO & CO from Company A to Company B and have a back to back PO created from the CO (Purch Order DIR) to the external vendor and Register a Direct Delivery.  With Rentals, Im not sure whether this is possible? Has anybody faced this scenario in the past? Ideally, we do not want to create an admin burden with Interco transfers but im open to options here.  ThanksJames

Hi everybody,my goal is to print a report twice if a material requisition is done.I’ve created the following report rule but it doesn’t work.Can anyone help? 

Hello IFS Community, We are starting to use APB in our company and for it to work properly, I need to apply a material constraint. Since we are still new to this, we would like to apply this to only some Components PN. The question is: Is there a fast and convenient way to change the “Sched Capacity” for several PN at once, or at least in a list without having to open one by one in Inventory Part? Since we are still just testing it, I wouldn’t like to rely on our IT for it. Any tips?

In our Apps 10 environment we use MS Level 1 to enter the Master Schedule Forecast.   We have the site manufacturing calendar set up for a 5-day work week starting on a Monday and ending on a Friday.  We are able to enter a forecast date of a Saturday but not a Sunday.  Why are we able to enter a forecast date of a Saturday when Saturday is not a workday?  We also have an exception ID for our holiday days.  We are also able to enter to enter a forecast date on a holiday day, why?   The example below has allowed a forecast date of 7/1/2023, which is a Saturday.  It also allowed a forecast date of 9/1/2023, which is on the holiday exception as a non-workday.
