Customer Calander on Demand Order and Supply Code Int Purch Dir.

Hi,How is it supposed to work when we have customer calendar connected on demand order and we have supply code Int Purch DirThe calendar is transferred to supply order line, so you can see on order line address that the calendar is connected.But if the supply site change Planned Delivery Date because it is not possible for them to deliver and the date is a holiday on the customer calendar,the supply site does not get any information that it is not possible to deliver at customer that date even that there is a customer calendar on the order line.Is this a bug or how it is supposed to be handled? RegardsAnna

MS level 1 for many variants

Hi all,Our customer wants to start using master scheduling level 1, level 0 & S&OP in IFS Cloud. However, in their product strategy there are many possible SKUs (colors, sizes) in a product group, which makes it difficult to forecast each item because many variants/items are only created to order.The question is whether anyone has experience with a work around or adjustment where the product forecast is initially defined at product group (intermediate) level to drive MRP & capacity load from there and where consumption is aggregated from item to group level.It is important to note that the customer does not use Configure to Order. Thank you for thinking along and sharing recommendations.Willy

Error Message when processing a RMA

We are experiencing this on 2 RMAs currently, 721 and 1048. (please check the image for the error) - The commonality between the 2 RMAs is that they were processed as a Return to a different Site than the originating RMA (Original Order was placed in ST003; return being sent to ST001).- The originating RMA 720 and 1047 were set up and linked to the customer order the parts were sold under. I just tried to receive in the parts under 721 with a different lot number and was received in Successfully. We will now have to manually adjust the inventory to reflect the correct lot number which is not ideal, but the RMA can be credited.What’s the reason behind this error?

MRP does not create Shop Order for Material needed in "Work Task - Service"

Hi All, Playing around with “Request Management” & “Work Task - Service”, I noticed something strange.I created a Work Task - Service with Material. The material demand shows up on the IPAP - so far so good, but when I run MRP, it does not generate a Shop Order Requisition. Although I would expect this since there is not enough material on stock of my manufactured part.I’ve added my steps below. Anybody have any suggestions? Best RegardsRoel   Process:Step 1: generate New ‘Request’ in Request ManagementStep 2: adding Work Task because I used an empty ‘Service’ from my “Service Catalog”Step 3: adding material to my Work Task, QTY = 6 Step 4: Request is Released - we can see the material under “Request-Service Work”Step 5: the demand is visible on the IPAP, but we only have 2 on stock so we need additional 4 PCSStep 6: Running MRPUsing background jobs to Making sure MRP is finished  Result: Nothing is happening on the IPAP. The MRP runs - demand is there but no Shop Order Requisition

Is It Possible to Change the Name of an Entire Warehouse?

Is there any way in the Warehouse Structure and Attributes to change the name of an entire warehouse to avoid having to create all new locations. We historically have a location name imbedded in the warehouse name and we recently moved making that location no longer relevant.  A simple example of this could be stated as saying our warehouse name was warehouse “Columbus” and we would like to change its name to anything different, say “Warehouse 1”.  We have moved the entire warehouse and locations, so this name is ultimately just causing confusion now. We are not looking to change the location naming convention at all since it meets our purposes completely.

Discrepancy between the Demand Planner and the exported forecast into MS1

Can you experts share your knowledge and confirm it the system behaves as expected or if there is some bug/missing settings?Below is the description of what we found out: The System is adding additional forecast just beyond Planning time fence, where it’s not needed, since the forecast within the Planning time fence already exists and covers weekly needs.  The Total forecast for May in MS1 is stated as 40,5124 according to the Demand Planner Importing Demand Planning forecast: The system is adding additional demand on the 8th of May which is not correct, since there is already a forecast for the 6th of May, that covers the entire week.

Partially Delivered Customer Order Lines do not always invoice

We are in IFS APPS10, UPD16Sometimes our Customer Order Lines in status “Partially Delivered” will invoice the delivered qty and sometimes it will not.We’ve checked online help and are uncertain if there are settings we need to revisit.The behaviour we would like is for the invoice to generate for the partially delivered quantity, and then an additional invoice when the balance is delivered.I’m seeking a suggestion for which settings to check and consider in our setup.

Blanket PO Creation

Blanket PO is where we get approval for first PO line and we add subsequent PO lines within the approved amount. However, once we enable “Project Unique Procurement” check box at project level; it is not possible to add subsequent lines to the PO due to below error.   Is there a workaround for this or any other way of creating a bulk PO from purchase order window itself.

Changing Lifecycle stage of just one part

Hi,Is there any way to manually changing the lifecycle stage of just one part without affecting other parts or company level/ asset class level set-up? We have one part tagged as expired but we need to change the status since it’s not allowing us to receive the new purchases. The only way I can see if to perform a dummy receipt and an issue out to trick the system. Appreciate if anyone can share what they did.Thank you in advance
