Is there a simple way to Freeze inventory for a group of codes?  Or is the only way to do each code individually?  For us, I am told it is an all or nothing option when it comes to freezing inventory, and we do not want our MRO parts needing froze for cycle counting, affecting raw material inventory for production.

Hello.Could you help me to answer our Customer’s question:………….we are using Transportation task to move stock from between companies/sites. however, although on the finance side this works fine for us on the inventory side it doesn't work well. mainly because Transport task only is to move material thats in inventory. what we need is to be able to see intercompany stock requirement and schedule production (MRP to see the demand) and then ship it to the other company using the Transport task.We tried using Distribution order but only issue is that Distribution order only allows us to schedule one material per Distribution Order. Also in a DO we have to create AR and AP invoices and payments althought all these transactions are intercompany.  ………...

Usually when we are creating a RMA, “Sales” Qty to return and “Inventory” Qty to Return are always the same. But I came across a situation where Sales Qty is 4 (which is Correct) and Inventory qty is 0. Is it possible to happen in the system? Do I have to change any basic setting?

But in app10 we noticed that it has been removed and ReceiptInfo has been introduced.We need to verify, if inventory part/non inventory part specific receipt data is identified from the value inventory_part (TRUE/FALSE) in receipt_info_tab?And...What is the use of PurchaseReceipt in APP10 which was already there in APP9 as well?

Hi Community,We have Inter-Purchase Direct transaction which is supplied by a Shop Order.This is giving a cost issue when Direct Delivery is registered - below error comes. Also, we see a Discarded status Incoming Delivery Notification (DIRDEL) for this exact PO line.The same PO has some other lines with Invent Order Supply code and they have registered without any issue and Incoming Delivery Notification is Approved status.Does any one know how to troubleshoot this?I tried to check in EDI message handling and I do not see a column for COST in there. So, how Cost from Supply site is taken to Demand Site?And our Internal Orders are with 0.01 Prices. ThanksGayan

Hello Community,We are using IFS 8 .There is one customer order which is type Service.It is in Delivered state and its sub status also is in Invoice approved state. This customer order has been created against the wrong customer.Can we cancel this customer order.

I have an issue with a standard IFS functionality for Intrastat reporting. For the Intrastat reporting purposes we are getting two separate xml files from IFS: one for Import and one for export goods.The issue is that one of important fields is missing in export report.We have to generate Import and export file separately. ‘Import’ xml output file is correct while in ‘export’ file the ‘Country of origin’ information is missing.Can anyone please explain why this might happen 

Hi,  I’m wondering if there is a ‘’bolt on enhancement’’ for Apps8 CRP to take on all of the enhancements Apps9/10 now have. The client is not in a position to upgrade at this moment.Most significantly is the calculation date which is not available in Apps 8, this would be really advantageous for the client. Is there any other means of doing this calculation in CRP? Has anyone written a custom event that mirrors this?  Thanks 

I am curious how other people are handling Blanket Orders Pick list prints.what’s the best way to reserve all lines on blanket order on the order enter date and create picklist but not print until its ready to process.thanks

I'm assuming from what little i know about customs, this address information is logged and held here?  What we need to understand is how this connected to a customer record and then how that pulls through to the CO when an order is raised.Also on the shipment screen as this is the point they would print/email the document. Is there a field where this shows the Customs ID which would be connected to the customer order record?  Any help with this would be great Thanks 

Hi all,sometimes this pop up appears when a modify in exactly this line is happening, sometimes not:  Any ideas why this might happen? Has anyone experienced similar behaviour?Without this pop-up the modify wont be inherited. Thank you!BestM

Hi,Maybe there is someone who knows that Cusyomer’s question (IFSAPP 8 version of our app) …..Should the system monitor the posting of a purchase requisition to a work order in case of detaching the WO from one project activity and attaching it to another activity?Should the purchase requisition (created on the WO associated with the first activity) inherit the decrement from the new project activity to which the WO has been attached?At the moment we have a case that this does not happen.……..BRMarcin

Community, We have a request when at customer order shipping, we would like the system to give notification that certain parts needs to be tested/inspected, wondering whether IFS could do something at shipment stage on this? Thank you.

Hi all.I’m trying to create a part with same code for different site and different unit measure.I could see that the system allows do it just if the base UoM is the same.is there a way to disable it or another workaround?That’s because I have an integration with another system and this situation e commom.I already have lots of parts using those so that I can’t delete them and create others.Tks a lot. 

I would like to peg make-to-order line items on customer orders to the supplying shop orders.  When the shop order is closed and the item is reserved to the customer order line, though, the item cannot be moved in the warehouse.  I understand the argument that if a made-to-order item is ready and reserved, the next logical step is to create a pick list.  For various reasons, however, we do need to move these items.Is it really not possible to move a reserved item?  Or are we missing something?Using IFS app 9, update 10.

How would one go about adding inbound freight cost to an inventory part without altering the per item cost of the PO line?  I know I can edit the lot batch cost but that is time consuming. Thanks in advance.
