Supply Chain

We have supplier Kanbans, Signal Type is Electronic, and we want to create Purchase Orders in the Planned status upon Kanban replenishment. On Inventory Part > General, the Default Supply Type is set to Order. Upon using Kanban Replenishment Request, a Purchase Order is created, but it is always created in the Released status. Is it possible to have these Kanban replenishment POs created in the Planned status? We are using v10.

Hi,One of our users has Registered a Direct Delivery against an Unpegged Order.I would put good money they would have seen the warning message:But hey-ho. That customer order line was then  processed on a subsequent req.Does anyone know a way to back out the delivery. We have a GRNI entry now which is incorrect.Many thanks,Matt

Hello All, Any idea on how to hide a forecast flow in the demand planner for myself? We need to keep these because of history, but I am not interested and prefer not to see them. I tried to do it in the user demand access area but I think it is not possible there.Any idea on how to do this? Thanks and best regards

We are trying to use Cycle Counting in Apps9. we have entered data for some parts such as 1,2,3,4 days for cycle counting but after 1 day of entering data we created a count report with part selection ‘Parts with cyclic counting'. When the report is created we can see it has included all the parts with different cyclic counts. How can we filter out the parts? Is there a way to run the report for the parts with specific cycle count?  

Reported IssueOn several Aurena screens, applying a search or filter using the "Date Created" field with the "Exact Date" setting, does not work (i.e. it returns no results at all). The customer are reporting this issue for several windows in different product areas. For supply chain product category this was reported for supplier shipment, purchase orders, Distribution orders and we have delivered this fixes separately. However the customer has recently found Purchase Requisition Lines (page) > Rejected Date (field) – Not working correctly. The Customer RequestThe current approach of IFS seems to be to try and fix only those specific fields which we have identified, but this method will inevitably continue indefinitely as we find more and more fields with the same bug. As we understand it, the issue occurs whenever the Oracle Database holds “DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS” but the Aurena page only displays “DD/MM/YYYY”.

Hi,When I try to delete a work center resource, I got the error message below. But I can’t find Resource Base Schedule screen, could you show me how to find it?Thanks. 

Hi All,Wondering if there are any idea how a customer could disable Condition Codes for Parts?I found that if I cycle count the on-hand balance to zero, I was then able to turn off “Lot Control”, but it still will not let me turn off “Condition Code” on the Inventory Part. Note: I also ran the “Clean-Up of Inventory” job, because I thought that was the problem, but that did not help.  Any thoughts? Thank you,Alex

In Apps 9 GRNI Report shows both Positive Values (Receipts) and Negative values (returns/ Scrap). But in the 22R1, report only shows the Net value and even we return the total quantity after invoicing the receipt, the negative value no longer display in the report. So we are unable to track down the Credit amounts that needs to be received from the Customer. Also, this created variance between GRNI GL value and the report

my query is that how we handle left over part in ifs, i  have to send left over part into the inventory. The problem is that if we returned the whole part that will be  not issue ,issue is  for partial part, for example there is part which is 6 by 6 feet iron plate, the shop consumed only 1 by 1 sheet  from that 6 by 6 sheet , the left of the part they have to returned to the store for further when it need ,if we unissued that part it unissued 6 by 6 plate but physically its 5 by 5

Safety stock: If I run MRP without selecting "Plan safety Stock Receipt considering MRP Run Date", MRP does not give me a purchase req. If I do select this option, I get a PR. What's the reason that not selecting that slider does not give me a PR, even though I’m dropping below safety stock in the future? Any ideas?   

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.

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

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

We can send emails from IFS Call Center, but the responses don’t load back into IFS, everything past the original email is in Outlook.  Is there a way to get responses to emails sent from a Call Center case back into the case?

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.

Hello All,can anyone enlighten me about the lead times mentioned in the inventory part in the section Manufacturing? Example attached with the lead times. B'regardsCarlo Koenders

Hi,We often get this error message when moving inventory part, does IFS have some configurations to disable the check behind?We are using IFS9 now.Thanks.

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

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 

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.
