Hello, I would like to do something like the conditional formatting in Excel: If(Sales Qty - Reserved Qty - Picked Qty - Delivered Qty > Available Qty ; text in red) Is it possible? Thanks for your support. 

All of our customers are E-Invoice setup based but some of them are EDI some are non EDI. We need to get a full list of non EDI customers.

HiI have a question  Is it possible to do full subcontracting with postdeduction of components in the intercompany flow ? Thanks for your ansmers BR

Hi everyone, I’m trying to establish a cycle count program using count reports and I’m having an issue with the business logic being used to add lines to the count report. I’m finding a disconnect between the cycle interval on the inventory part, and the last date an inventory part has a COUNT-IN or COUNT-OUT transaction. It appears the ‘Last counted date’ which is being fetched by the Get_Last_Count_Date function,  is populated on the inventory part in stock, but is granular down to the part/config/location/lot/serial/ecn/wdr/handling unit combination. So if I count a part at a specific location, then move it, the last counted date will be lost.  My interpretation of the cycle interval logic is as follows. If the cycle interval on the inventory part record is 60, and the part is counted on October 1st, then the next time the part would be fetched and added to a count report would be December 1st. (our distribution calendar is 7 days a week @ 24 hours a d

Hi - We are a food manufacturer selling on Amazon and having trouble assigning a warehouse based off the Amazon vendor code found in the PO. Would anyone have any solutions for this? 

Hello,I found we can change ‘Qty to Issue’ on warehouse task but can’t be saved. The reason why I want to change the quantity is because warehouse may issue excess materials to shop floor due to physical package limitation. So is it possible to change the quantity and then execute the task?Many thanks. 

We’re using IFS 9, version 14.Has anyone ever had experience when attempting to manage the difference between cost (such as Estimated Material Cost on the Inventory Part, or Latest Purchase Price on Supplier for Purchase Part) versus the price in the Feature Pricing (Configuration Base Pricing/Price List Pricing). We want to have visibility into when our cost is eating into margins, and the difference between the pricing on the Configuration and the cost of the part is what’s we’re interested in seeing. Since multiple parts (therefore multiple different costs) can contribute to one feature, or vice versa, I’m trying to determine if there’s a way to effectively manage variance between the cost and price, when price is not directly connected to the cost in the system.

Hello,I made a mistake when reporting the picking of a shipment and clicked report before I corrected my mistake. Now I don’t know how to release that part.Report picking: done Shipment status is still preliminary Serial number: 663. I have an issue with that part and I cannot ship it.  I found that it is possible to reassign shipment connected quantity. Unfortunately, it says that the reserved and picked quantity will not be released. How else can I do?Do you know how to proceed to cancel the picking/reservation of that part? Thanks in advance for the support. 

We are in Apps 10 UPD 10 trying to use Handling Units in outbound shipments. We are entering weights for (pallet) handling units. A few of the handling units are used both our European site and our US site, both of which are in the same Company. The European site needs to use kg (metric measurements) and the US site uses Lbs. How do we accomplish 2 different UoMs for Handling Unit weights for the 2 sites if they are both in the same company?   Thank you .

We are in Apps 10 UPD 10 working to implement SSCC, Shipment and Handling Unit labels.  After clicking Create SSCC when clicked on the shipment, I do not see an SSCC number for the entire shipment. I have the appropriate checkboxes checked in the Handling Unit rows and do see an SSCC has been generated for each of the 4 pallets   When I am clicked on the Shipment line in the Handling Unit Structure,  and click  ‘Print Shipment Handling Unit Labels’, No of Handling Units = 0 when in fact there are 4 pallet Handling Units in the ShipmentThe report  only contains information for the last of the 4 pallets, not all 4, which I would expect for a Shipme

Hi,  Problem: When printing the Shipment Pro Forma Invoice, the Number/Date format sometimes changes to the correct Number/Date format of the receiving country and sometimes it does not.What factors makes this Number/Date format change for the Pro Forma Invoice and Is there a way to automatically change the Number/Date Format option? The language for this Shipment Invoice is by default en, but the number and date formats can change. There does not seem to be an option in the report rule to control the Number/Date Format.Test 1: Printing Shipments from FI10, Receiver still in Finland gets the fi-FI when printing.  Test 2: Printing Invoice Shipment from DK10, Receiver is also in Receiver ID in fr

HiI have a request in a customer that has Customer Order Lines with Supply Code “Pur Order Direct”.The sales part is a purchase part with product structure and the components are supplied to supplier.When i create the customer order with purchase order connected should be possible as in Register Arrival:1 - Supply Material to Supplier, or2 - Backflush the Components when Register Direct DeliveryThese options are not avaiable. Can anyone confirm if this is a limitation because of supply code “Pur Order Dir” or is a bug ?VS

Hi everyone, I would like to add work_order_status to the ‘Work order cost/revenue analysis’ screen and I need confirmation regarding whether I need to add a logical unit and custom field to effect this? I have managed to add the item to the View, but IFS cannot ‘see it’, so I can’t select it form the Column Chooser. Cheers,Neil. 

Is it possible to receive a RMA without actually creating inventory?Like the Purchase Order Arrival function before move to stock.

Is it possible to register a RMA for components of delivered products?Often not the complete machine is returned, but only the component(s) that need investigation.

The scrap system requires multiple steps through multiple operations and multiple departments. What is the easiest way to get replacement parts to the line to keep production running.

Dear community,Situation: in the main warehouse we are working with HUs - plastic bins that contain smaller parts. These bins remain in that warehouse. Parts are picked out of the bin into a shipment area. Mostly this works fine, except when a bin contains the exact amount of parts on a pick line: in this case IFS assumes that the entire HU is picked and moves the bin onto the shipment location:2 CO line reservations, 1 for a complete stock record and 1 where only a part of the stock record is needed: 2. the pick list, notice that IFS picked up an ‘outernmost HU’ for the stock record that is picked entirely:

Trying to understand some things about part characteristics as they relate to master parts and inventory parts. Considering characteristics for parts, but want to make sure of the most appropriate creation and flow, assuming the idea is to create a master part and inventory parts (may be many inventory parts, due to different locations) from the master part. Also the more relevant scenario where many master and inventory parts already exist.Part Master Data>Master Part>Part has a Characteristics tab that seems unrelated to Inventory Part Characteristics, seems to just happen to be named Characteristics Am able to populate the Technical Class and Attributes (App Base Setup/Characteristics/Basic Data) by creating them, then template and assigning template, but I don’t think this is necessarily relevant to what we’re after...this seems likely independent of inventory part characteristics, and doesn’t seem to flow to inventory part characteristics once created

Hi,It was observed in IFS that there is no specific methodology used in standard to define the different numbering sequence for any Purchase Transactions (like PR, RFQ, PO etc.).Is there any way of defining any specific numbering sequence for all the relevant purchase transactions, as per desired format.? As it was also observed that someway it can be handled via Coordinator Groups as well, to some extent, as long as Purchase and Distribution Orders are considered. For which the character string is also limited for 1, which is not desired though.By any chance we can address this issue in standard IFS (with Aurena Client).?Any valuable feedback or remarks on this would be really appreciated. Regards,Prabuddha

I was trying to register the Purchase Agreement with backdated entries under ‘Period’ tab. But, system is not allowing to enter any previous dates which lies before sys-date(Current date), in the ‘Valid From’ column. It immediately pops-up an error message, “The Start Date Cannot be earlier than today.”Any inputs on how to cater this Valid From issue in Supplier Agreement screen, would be highly appreciated.Regards,Prabuddha 

I'm looking into making use of the Repetitive Inter-Site Message Handling as described in https://docs.ifs.com/ifsclouddocs/Sales/AboutInterSiteMessageHandling.htm. Does someone have more information regarding this or the setup guide that the help refers to?

Hi, For a specific client need in IFS (not FSM solution) we have the following requirements : 1) RMA advance replacement : the company does not await for items under RMA to be returned before to exchange the part and send the new one to the customer2) RMA item quality inspection at arrival : the items need to be inspected (parts are company owned now, not client property anymore)3 options after inspection : A)  ScrappingB)  To be reconditionnedC)  Supplier return if the part is still under warranty (The part can not be directly send to the supplier by the customer, previous analysis by the company is a mandatory step)3) If the part can be reconditionned, a repair action must be launched.4) Once the repair operations has been performed, the item must be identified as a repaired one and available to be resaled to another client or used for a maintenance operation (not necessalery for the same client as the o
