Good Morning,  Is it possible to change a Customer on a Customer Order?  In our event we selected the incorrect customer and want to change it.  We have a large PO tied direct ship so Copy Order to generate a new Customer Order with a new PO would require a large amount of rework. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks

  Hi, Does anyone have an idea about how to define Backup Path in Demand Plan Server?should we define this in a system parameter by pointing a folder in an extended sever? 

Hello,We use manufacturing tools to constrain our schedule with APB in Apps 10. Recently, we have encountered an issue where some shop orders are scheduling in APB, but many other shop orders are not getting scheduled in APB. After looking through many of the potential causes, we have determined the most likely cause to be the manufacturing tool. If we remove the tool from the the shop orders, the shop orders will schedule. We have run several parts and several scenarios, and APB seems to only schedule 5ea shop orders- regardless of how many are attempted. We have tried to schedule varying amounts of shop orders (13, 91, 102, etc)- and each time only 5 shop orders are scheduled.We are not having this same issue with other Manufacturing tools. Other tools seem to be scheduling all attempted parts / shop orders correctly. But one particular tool seems to be having issues, limiting the amount of shop orders scheduled to 5.Is there a setting on the manufacturing tool that might be controll

Hello,This error message appears:When entering the preparation in the shipment.  For inventory parts configured with durability For inventory parts reserved on different lots and different locationsSo, my question is : “Why this message exists whereas we hadn’t changed the expiration date?”Thanks.

As an admin, what should I change to give a user an access to Active Work Orders? (AURENA)

I have several distribution orders that have had partial quantities received. The “delivered” quantity shows it is for the whole quantity but I have not actually received the whole quantity. IT seems we made a mistake in processing the shipment and cannot get the outgoing CO to recreate for the open balance. We would just prefer to cancel the DO and create a new one for the balance quantity.

When run MRP, some shop order would not like to being proposed to change as “Later order” or “early order”, when we can set up to make it happen, someone can help to solve. thank you very much.  

Hello Everyone;I am working with a client, and when they are brining in updated customer schedules via EDI, backorder lines are being cancelled.  The Customer Schedule Agreement was initially set to “Ignore in reconcile” for the Plan Backorder Option.  It was updated to “Include in reconcile”, but the lines are still being cancelled.  This is happening regardless of if there is a quantity change in the back ordered lines. Any notion of why this would occur?The client has a significant number of back ordered lines, and a very significant volume of schedules, such that any type of manual review is not practical.   Thanks in advance!

Hi all.I have a question about Request for Order Quotation.Purchase Requisition created from IFS DOP Order cannot create a Request for Order Quotation.It seems that this is the functional restrictions of IFS.I'm being asked by a customer why can't make an Order Quotation from DOP Order.I want to know the reason, and please let me know if there is a case where a customer who has implemented IFS create Order Quotation from DOP Order. Thanks & Best Regards.

Hi All, I’m wondering, is there any way to upload the FC from my customer for several parts at once? I mean, I work with over 700 different PN’s, and in order to release the FC to our colleagues at the PPD, at this moment I had to upload one by one for each single part, is there any way to load the FC for all the parts we supply to our customer, at once? Believe me is quite time consuming to do it, part by part…. Thanks a lot for your support or ideas of how to do it.

Hi All,When using ‘Pick by Choice’ option, it allows you to pick any quantity, provided there is enough stock. This is fine when the ‘Qty to Pick’ is less that what's on the CO ‘Sales Quantity’. But, when the  ‘Qty to Pick’ is higher than what's on the CO ‘Sales Quantity’, this results in additional goods being delivered and thus invoiced to the customer which is quite a mess.Is there a way to restrict this from happening?At least a warning message saying that more quantity is being picked than what's mentioned on the CO would make the picker think twice. Isn’t it?Any thoughts/ideas to cater this requirement?Thanks,Arunalu

Hi,I am looking for information about the hierarchy between ex. inventory part and supplier for purchase part, which is the top level in regards to data structure.For example, it is possible on the supplier for purchase part, to setup "min order qty", and on the inventory part a "min lot size", this is the same: the minimal that can be purchased?Since the inventory part cannot be blank, and it seems this number is used in the MRP, then when is the number from the supplier for purchase part used?The same for lead time, lead time can be se up on different levels, but which controls in the end the MRP.Looking for info exactly which fields are used in the MRP and which can override each other? BRAnders

Is it possible to restrict users from using the Reprint options on Customer Invoice screen in IFS9

In a screen [frmWindow], open the search dialog, enter a value for any column and hit search. When clicked on search, I need to format the value given and use this formatted value to populate the screen.For example: In Customer Order screen, I enter value for Customer as “ABC” and hit search. But in the background, I need to format the “ABC” as “%ABC%” and search for this.We can achieve this using Saved Search but I need to implement it in the form level. I found QueryWhereStatementFormat but came to know that this can be used only for child sources.Any suggestions?

Dear All, does anybody know is there is a way to configure a sales part price according to the purchase order line price when using the supplier direct sourcing? For example, add 30% from the purchase order line price to the customer order line sales price. Thanks a lot for your help :)  

Hi, what is the best option to get parts in stock with supplier ownership? Not consignment stock, but parts in a location with ownership Supplier? The documentation gives the option of using this and transferring the ownership, but I have not found anything on how to get/receive the parts in stock so that they clearly state that they are still Supplier Owned:  “Supplier-OwnedThe supplier-owned setting is used for externally-owned stock that is supplied with the intent that once received into stock, will be converted to company-owned. The supplier-owned ownership is used as a temporary ownership between the arrival and receipt into stock if the value of the Ownership Transfer Point list in the Company/Distribution/General tab is set to Receipt into Inventory. No inventory postings will be created until the parts are received into stock (e.g., picking, floor stock and shipment) even if the purchase order is of a service or exchange type. These parts will not affect the inventory value or

First Off I am on apps 9 and upgrading to apps 10 shortly   I have a couple of sites where the pricing is based on FIFO.   One is a Duty Free warehouse.  Each time we receive the Purchase Order we can apply to the cost from the PO convert it to the base currency of the company and add in the cost based on the Cost Templates in the cost bucket assigned to the part for freight percentage add on. Now I would like to sell those parts to the other warehouses that it feeds.    I want to then add costs based on the cost templates in the cost bucket to add in Duty/tarrif/Freight costs.    But I want the starting point to be based on the costs that the parts are stored in the Duty Free warehouse as.      I went in and added the sales part base price for my item to the duty free warehouse.   I checked the flag for origin from costing.   I selected cost set 1   Inventory Value.    I went in and updated the costing with the batch job.   It doesnt see any amount for the costing.    Any ideas?   doe
