Supply Chain

ok forgive my naivety, but I need to know if something is possible. We would like to set up a safety stock system on Part A, which would trigger the production of Family B (Different Part Number), which creates 12 different parts, including Part A. When we run Family B, we use the Alternate parts transaction to put the parts into stock. Is there a way for Part A to trigger Family B?We are ok with alternate parts and setting safety stock levels, its just the demand calling for another part number.thanks in advance.

We can reserve component material on Supplier Material for Purchase Order Line. How do we ‘Un-Reserve’ component material on Supplier Material for Purchase Order Line? Currently we don’t have any option to ‘Un-Reserve’. In Reserve Part, I tried entering the Qty Reserved in Negative (like how we Un-Reserve material on Material Requisition line) but this didn’t work here either.Any information how we can un-reserve material from supplier material for purchase order line is greatly appreciated. 

We received this requirement from one our customers and following describes it in high-level. Any knowledge about a solution? *********************************************There have been legal requirements for years that companies need to register and keep information about the goods they handle that contains specific substances. There are several different regulations depending on what country you are delivering the goods to but to mention a few we are SCIP, REACH, RoHs, 3TG and Cobolt. Further to this the legal requirement to report to governments introduced in SCIP in January 2022. These different regulations states what chemicals that needs to be disclosed, you need to report in which parts they exist and how much of the substance the part contains. The substances and tolerance associated to that can vary between the regulation standards. Is there any standard functionality for this in IFS? We are aware of the Dangerous Goods Clas

Hi,I am trying to create  Consolidated Transport Task via Inventory Part in Stock Reservation. My question is whenever the reservation records have different location groups (same location type -picking) it triggers a separate Transport task instead of consolidating into one despite the parameters I have set up in Site level ( refer the attachment) . The warehouse setting is NULL so Site should override ( I have thoroughly tested different scenarios, but ending up with same result). I got this checked technically as well. Can someone pls explain the logic behind having the location group preventing a Transport Task Consolidation ? Or whether you found a work-around for this ? Thanks in Advance !RegardsYashodha

Hi All,Can the 'Release for Mtrl Planning' flag on a customer order line set to default as unchecked when the order header is in the Planned status and only check when the customer order header is released. The default in IFS standard is to have this checked and user to uncheck. Speaking to our technical team it looks like we may need to create a custom event for this, but I wondered if anyone knew of a standard way to do? Thanks,Susan

Hello,So I know that for the “Over Delivery” field, the system looks first to the Purchase Part, then if that’s blank, to the Purchase Group, and if that’s blank, to the Site. Question: How will the system behave if all 3 are blank?

Hi All,We've received app crashing issues from many customers after installing the latest Scan It 10 update (1.0.10) in android. This is indeed a business critical issue and we've given top priority within R&D to fix it. Until that we recommend to download the previous app version manually as instructed below. We know this could not work for customers who are having many devices and handling devices through automatic updates centrally. But it's the only workaround we can provide for android at the moment until we restore previous app version in the app store. I'll keep you posted when the previous app is restored in the apps store. If you have any issues/concerns please contact me directly on teams.Steps to install the old app on your device Uninstall the current app Go to https://tas-app10.ifsworld.com/D

Hello. Whenever creating a entry on the General tab of the Invoice tab in the Supplier page the username is defaulted with a userid that does not match the person that created the entry. Also Invoicing Supplier is auto populated with a supplier that does not match the given Supplier. Does anyone know where the defaults for these fields are maintained? Thanks.  

Hi, We went live with IFS in January and no longer have the consultant who was heavily involved in costing. I see there are three ways to set standards for new costs (as explained by IFS help). Bullet point three is occurring but I may want to utilize bullet point two. I would like someone to confirm that this is the estimated cost field they are referencing. THANK YOU!   

I need to assign reorder level for set of items and notification should be pop up when it reach to reorder level.any one can help me on this?

Hi, App10 - still not possible to add multiple lines to a Purch Req template? Seems to only allow saving of one line, I tried with no part lines. Also header and lines need to be done separately? Any efficient way to get a nice template with multiple lines, preferably header + lines in one go? Creating the header from a template and then again another template for the lines containing only one line is pretty much just as fast as without a template... any good ideas on this? Any plans to get templates in Aurena? Maybe not worthwhile putting too much effort into this if they won’t be in Aurena at all. Appreciate your input, fellow Purch Req people!

We have a situation where we are selling goods to a customer but holding the stock on our site for a period of time before delivering. Therefore I need to make a sale and generate an invoice along with all the postings that go along with it. But, the stock needs to remain in IFS and move to a location that is customer owned. Is there any way to do this (on IFSAPP10)?
