Hello,How can I change the expiration date of a material? Under what conditions is the expiration date value assigned? Is it possible for it to be automatically assigned? Currently, when I right-click on the material stock information screen for the relevant material, the Expiration Date field appears grayed out and is not clickable. I would appreciate your valuable insights.Best regards. 

Hi All,As you know we can define the maximum limit for the Supplier Agreement and if we create a PO by exceeding the maximum amount, then system will throw an error by preventing the PO line saved. (Supplier Agreement Max amount option is Do not exceed)  If we create a Purchase Requisition, the part price/Curr is fetched from the particular Supplier Agreement. But the error is not triggered when the PR line is saved as similar to the PO. (The error only produces at the point of converting PR to PO)  Can someone tell why the validation is not checked when saving the PR as same as the PO? Thanks in Advance.

Hi,Does Freight Charges calculation put the same Value to both Charge Price and Charge Cost? 

Hello IFS Experts, Hoping to hear some ideas or solutions to an issue we are having!Currently for our offshore PO shipments, when we are notified of this shipment, we receive into arrival into a non-nettable location. By doing this it allows finance to have a payable and trace ownership of our in-transit materials through GL. Once the material is physically received, we then move the material from that receipt to arrival non-nettable location into a nettable picking location. This was the recommended way from IFS during our implementation 2 years ago. We would like a solution to not have to receive in material that is not physically received because we may need to change the Incoming Dispatch Advice/PO Lines if we find any updates or corrections are needed for the shipment ID #, quantity, or price, or most often the needed to change is the arrival date. Once received the system, it does not allow changes, which this makes sense because it has been received into the system. Does anyone

Community, searched in the community,  I don’t think I have got what I need. below is the scenarioBelgium Site send purchase order to Canada site, so intersite order created at both sites (Belgium site purchase order, Canada site customer order). Belgium site make changes, cancel purchase order lines. instead of using “Send Change Request”, Belgium site sent message using “Send Order”.This scenario ends up in below consequencesCanada site approves the incoming message, result in error, customer order already exist Belgium site realized the error and tried to send “Send Change Request” again,  but the message does not include changes (cancelled purchase order lines), and it does not make any changes to the customer order in Canada site. We assume the changes have been consumed by the previous message that was sent wrongly.Question is, how we could handle this kind of scenario? either we could make Belgium site send change request include the change info or we could do unpegging and make

Does anyone know how to show and search the Location_no field on the Inventory Parts screen.  We have some parts where the default location is set but that part doesn’t show on the ‘parts in stock’ tab of the warehouse navigator.  As a result, the warehouse staff cannot delete the location because that default location exists on another part.  The user has no way to find out what part is stopping them from deleting the location. Thanks 

Is it possible to email an ORDER BASED confirmation reminder, without having to use the print preview?From the purchase order confirmation reminders screen it is possible to print an order based confirmation reminder. But when using the e-mail confirmation reminder option it will always create one e-mail per line. Is it possible to configure the e-mail (event action) in such a way that an order based e-mail is sent?I already compared the reports that are generated, both have the same report id and report title. So I can't use that as conditions. Is there anything else I can do?

HelloWe are trying to run RRP for more than 60 weeks (periods) but it will only return 60 periods of data. The parameters we need are 66 weeks of data. I have checked the calendars related to each of the period templates for each site are extended past the end requirement, same with the period template themselves. Planning Units in weeks also extend into the future past the required date. Is there a maximum number of periods we can see in RRP? Is there any way to increase the number? Thankyou

One of the previous companies I’ve worked with is registered in IFS as a single-site-per-company. In reality that company has multiple sites under same company with the same country. But in IFS, those sites are registered as diferent addresses only. Those days I was thinking of a way to change it, but I couldn’t. What do you think will be the negative issues as a result of this incorrect setup? Do you think they’ll manage to change it at all, given there have been a huge transaction history of about 10 years after the initial IFS rollout?

Hi,We are looking for a way to split a customer order line into multiple shipments (with different dates, as an example) without creating a new customer order line within the same customer order.  Other ERP systems, have the ability to build shipment lines off of a single customer order line to differentiate dates and or even shipping addresses.  Does IFS have this ability?  If so, how is this done? We currently are using custom logic to build our shop orders from customer order lines - as a result, we want to be able to have realistic ship dates on customer order lines that are split shipping at different times, without adding a new customer order line that would ultimately fire an additional shop order.  We currently wind up with false views of revenue recognition within reporting as a result of only being able to use one shipping date per customer order line. Thanks for any help/insight!

Community,Since site is the planning level, if we only has one site in IFS, and I cannot plan a purchased part to be replenished by Kanban via ROP, as well as by external supplier via PR?There is one site currently in our system, but manufacturing building and warehouse are in different locations. We would like this part can be replenished from external supplier via MRP and PR/PO, but when comes to internal replenishment, we would like to replenish by Kanban ROP via transport task.External supplier replenishment internal replenishment via Kanban ROP.I don’t think within one site we could do planning for one part using different replenishment method. kindly share your thoughts here.  Thank you.
