Supply Chain

Hi,It isn’t possible to connect a project activity from the order object if the item has moved beyond the Planned status, regardless of whether it is a Customer Order Line, Purchase Order Line, or Shop Order. The item must be in Planned status to enable the connection.However, several customers have raised concerns about this limitation, expressing the need to have the “Connect to Activity” functionality available even after the Customer Order (CO) is released to connect projects, as this is a common scenario in real-world business operations. Thanks,Vihan Weerapura

We are facing an issue where items reserved by a Work Order (WO) cannot be packed into a Handling Unit (HU). Our goal is to group these reserved items into a single HU so that we can move them as a whole to the work center.However, IFS does not allow packing as the items are already reserved for the WO. Canceling the reservation is not an acceptable option due to process constraints.Question:What is the recommended way to handle this scenario in IFS? How can we pack reserved items into a HU while keeping the reservation intact and still be able to perform a bulk transfer to the work center?

Hi all!  I’m looking for standard templates for all the EDI message formats for IFS Cloud 24R2. I cannot find any documentation of this. Is there anyone who has the templates avaliable and can share? Thank you it wil be much appreciated.  Regards, Julie 

Hi,I hope that you are well.Does anyone have a presentation on “IFS Cloud - Export Control Functionality” or a document detailing functional improvements/changes from APP10 to Cloud, please? Thank youKind regards,Samiru

The shop order linked to the Dop oder in planed or release status,it is possbile to update the structure revision from the Dop oder.But if the shop order linked to the Dop oder in  parked status, it will not be possible to update the structure revision from the Dop oder.Is there any solution for this issue? And we want to know the reason of this. 

Our Customer Service team members spend a great deal of time entering orders received by email. We use EDI for some larger customers, but we receive orders by email from many smaller customers. We are interested in solutions that could help automate data entry into IFS. Please share your experiences, ideas, and suggestions.

In IFS Cloud/Aurena > Interim Order Header page, I can see that many status are available on this object (such as “Cancelled” for example)=> How to get this status ? How to cancel an Interim Header ?=> Does anyone have a diagram for interim header process (possible switch between status) ?Thanks.

Hi,After updating from 23R1 to 24R2 we are missing list of value on Address Type under Warehouse Navigator/Remote Warehouse/Delivery Address/Address Type. Does anyone know where we can set up?   

I am seeing a task where you can cleanup customer orders and one of the selections is for cancelled order headers.  I believe cancelled orders would not have any transactional history and really are only taking up space.  I tested that and was able to delete the cancelled customer order for anything older than 12/31/23.  My question is, can we do the same thing with Distribution Orders and Purchase Orders?  I am aware of the concern of deleting something that has transactional history and I don’t want to do that, but I would like to get rid of stuff that never had anything happen.Suggestions?

Hello,during the creation Supplier for purchase part we define the price per UoM; e.g.:1 psc = 50,00 PLNbut we have the cases when the price depends on the purchased qty, e.g.purchased qty between 1-50 pcs - 1 psc = 50,00 PLNpurchased qty between 50-100 pcs - 1 psc = 40,00 PLNpurchased qty between 100-200 pcs - 1 psc = 25,00 PLNcould we define  somehow in IFS this kind of pricing depending on purchased qty for one Part?could we assume any condition here? in order to have appropriate price during cretation demand/PR.

Hi, we want to implement Large Order Quantity check.I would like to get some fields. Can someone please help me to get the right value in DB?  On Hand Qty for a part, I found it in table IFSAPP.INVENTORY_PART_IN_STOCK_TAB, but it can have multiple rows because of receiving part. But I would like to get a sum amount of a part like IFS showing in page. Should I sum all the rows relate to the same Part_NO? Or I can get it from some other places? Dose Catalog_No in IFSAPP.CUSTOMER_ORDER_LINE_TAB is as same as Part_No?

I got this error trying to move into stock after Register Arrival. All serial parts are in stock. I can not see that there are anything wrong with basic data for Inventory Part ether.Is there anyone how has had this error and found a solution?Thanks, Anders 

Hello Team,I would like to know if you already have this kind of issue.I cannot Move the receipt into One location. Each time it’s saying the error message.The “inventory part” is existing, but we have nothing in “inventory parts in stock”. Could you please help me ? 

IFS help, https://docs.ifs.com/ifsclouddocs/25r1/MaintainInventory/AboutMovingPartsInMaintainInvent.htm, describes different scenarios for moving parts within the same or across different companies .The transport task allows to move from one site to another with different companies involved.  This creates COMPM-IN and COMPM-OUT transactions.As I consider different companies as different legal entities, I expect this kind of intercompany trade also triggers an invoicing flow.How is this invoicing flow handled in the system for the transport task scenario? 

Hello,Can the charges of the customer order be calculated based on the weight of the part?Thank you in advance.Sincerely, Lina 

Using IFS Cloud, is there a way to keep company owned and consignment stock in the same inventory location? There is a toggle under site/warehouse management to allow multiple owners for inventory part, but this does not seem to work as stated

I have a warehouse W2 and route orders defined at Bay level as follows. The idea is to move parts using transport tasks (TT) based on the route order. Parts are in stock under locations belongs to each of these bays.Bay No              Route Order01                        0402                        0309                        0215                        01 However, when you select parts from these four different locations and create the transport task, the TT lines do not follow the Route order by any means. Then I tried executing it with wadaco and it followed the Bay order (01,02,09,15) again NOT following the Route order by any means. Can someone please shed some light as to where this ROUTE ORDER is being used at all ?

dbms_output.put_line(‘Hello World!’); I’ve recently started recording videos on using IFS Cloud functionality. They’re supposed to be beginner level but I’ll also get into more advanced topics once the basics are covered. I’ve started with Supply Chain topics and I plan on continuing with Manufacturing, Service, Technical in the future.Have a look at my YT channel. Maybe you’ll find something useful.I’m also open to ideas what functionality I should cover next 😀. https://www.youtube.com/@MarcelAusan

Hi,When we try to run APB in IFS Cloud, after we choose site => Click Ok => it is downloaded => Click Run => the client starts for two seconds before it disappears again. Happened in several environments to different users. Tried both Chrome and Edge, same issue.Anyone who’ve had a similar issue? Guessing it’s a bug but could it be something that needs to be enabled in order for APB to work? Br/M  

Hi, We would like to set up Punchout integration in IFS cloud 25R1 for one of the supplier.  We have got the Punchout URL and Secret but I am not sure about the other details.   Could someone help in understanding what values it should have and how to fetch them.  We would like to use the cXML,  what is  “Domain” , “Identity”, “Sender Domain”, “Sender Identity” ?   what is this “use Mac” ? should we enalble that or skip ?  I would like to have a more simple set up.  What would be the client ID and domain name given here under basic data for punchout ?  Is the client here same as the “Identity” from add supplier puchout set up ?    Is the client ID nothing but a user ID in IFS ?    I would really appreaciate if you could help. Thanks!

Hi,When we revoke the approval of the order quotation, order quotation line Revision No is remain unchanged. but when we check the Request Lines History, we can see that the Revision No is captured.  Is this the standard behavior or a bug?  Thank you! 

Hi, when using CTP in customer orders to calculate the delivery date, the system uses calendar days to calculate the purchasing lead times rather than using working days in supplier or distribution calendar.Pls. consider adding an option to either use calendar or working days. If this is is considered to be touched in a future release, consider this as well Additionally consider this if CTP gets touched We are happy to decribe in more detail if needed.  Thanks

Hi, The calculation of the cumulated lead time for purchase parts does not consider any calendar setting. Neither the distribution calendar, nor the supplier calendar nor the external transport calendar in supply chain matrix. Pls. consider making this consistent or parametrizable to use calendar settings if set up in the system. Thanks
