Hi, I dont know if it’s the right way to mention a potential case but i noticed 2 quite strange things in IFS cloud on 2 different environments : - Transport task to remote warehouses deletion after “Refill putaway zones” batch launch→ Transport tasks previousely deleted seems to be created again after a few seconds, without any user action.- Refill source method chamges (invent order or purchase) on remote warehouse assortment are not taken into account : if I change the refill method from invent to purchase, i still have a transport task generated if launch “Refill putaway zones” batch.Thanks for your help and expertise on this topic, it may be an error from my side in the setup. 

What are my options in APPS10 to handle a customer order with multiple order lines if we need to ship the items in multiple boxes? Is there a way to track in IFS how many boxes shipped? Currently our Parts department determines how many boxes are needed when they are picking/packing the items. They want a packing list for each box but right now we just put a copy of the delivery note in each box. Any suggestions? Are there any demos?Thank you

I’m following an inter-site flow where once the external customer order is released, a purchase requisition will be created at Release of customer order. Now I have a customer order at Released with a Released CO line for which a PR is created. I need to add a new line to the existing CO which is Released. When I did this, the line status is set to Released automatically however the PR was not created as there was no trigger. How can this be solved?   

Hi, I have a part which was not tracked by serial at the time of issue, later it got tracked by serial in the system. Now i m trying to return the part which i issued without serial. system is raising error that system requires unique serial for each line.when i put serial system raise error saying this serial is not registered in part catalog. how can i receive this serial tracked part without registering the serial at the time of RMA receipt, and then to identify its serial from inventory part in stock. Thanks 

There is a subsidiary company in USA and another subsidiary company in Australia under the one group of companies. USA company manufactured a raw material at the cost of 75USD and sells at 100USD to Australian company. Currently in IFS, selling company in USA inventory is valued at 75USD where as buying company’s inventory in Australia is valued at 100USD.But Australian company wants to value the received inventory at 75 USD and not to value at 100USD because the received inventory should be valued at cost for the group and they do not want to include 25USD markup in inventory which increases cost of sales when Australian company selling  finished goods to their customers. Is there anyway to handle this scenario with this current setup as shown below?  

Hi, Is it possible to send samples to ‘Prospects’? Our samples would be Serialized and tracked in order for us to know where they are so they can return at the appropriate moments. For customers this is all easy, but what about prospects that are not yet converted to customers? Is it possible to create some kind of shipment so we can track the samples being sent to them? Or is it mandatory to convert the prospect to a customer despite the fact that they have not (and maybe will not) do a purchase? Best RegardsRoel

When creating a PO in IFS to an external vendor with PO Inventory Lines all set to customer owned, upon receipt IFS does not create a liability to the external vendor.  I understand that the customer owned inventory will hit the balance sheet a zero dollars, BUT I do have a liability to pay my external vendor for the parts.  Shouldn’t IFS handle this like it does of external service orders for inventory parts?  Upon receipt of those inventory PO’s IFS posts the M91/M92.  But these customer owned inventory PO lines that I am purchasing from an external vendor not creating a liability seems to me fundamentally wrong.

Is there any functionality that can implement for Apps 7 which will allow to scan a part, then scan the shelf location, which would them update the inventory part record if IFS?I suspect this may be functionality that is supplied from a 3rd party vendor. If so, can you supply any contact information so that we can contact them?Would this require any type of modification from IFS???

Hi, does anyone know how to create a warehouse task from transport task?(I’m using APPS 10) and for warehouse task, does it only support the link to:transport task, shop order pick, customer order pick?how about customer order delivery ?  

Hi,On the sales part it is possible to set a minimum sales qty, but is it also possible to set the sales qty as a fixed multiple. For example, you can only order multiples of 100 (100 - 200 - 300 -...) and not 250 for example?I would think there would be a standard field for something like this but I can’t seem to find it. Best RegardsRoel Timmermans

How can i remove any stock left in In Transit?

Is it possible to print the handling unit labels directly once you have done the register arrival process in CloudR1?Seems like you need to do it from receipt or from the handling unit view.

Error reads “Expiration date may not be later than from-locations exp. date”

Hi,Is there a way to set a quantity level of a part (like safety stock in inventory part level in overall) in a specific location, so that refilling of the part to that location will be triggered, only when the qty of the part falls under a specific qty in that location ?For an example, part A is there in location X and location Y, and location X need to be refilled from location Y, only of the qty of part A in location X is under 10. IS there a standard functionality achieve this. Any way to achieve this ?I have tried putaway zones functionality, by ranking the storage zone for location X, above  storage zone for the location Y, and after running/scheduling the task “Refill All Putaway Zones”, a transport task is created to move all the qty in location Y to location X, since I have not defined any storage requirement restrictions. Thank you in advance !

Hi All,Im trying to use the RMB 'Pack According to Packing Instruction' from the Inventory Part in Stock window, but it is greyed out.From the looks of it, the only reason i can think of is because it is an 'Arrival' location type. This is the same for location types of 'Quality Assurance’.Am i correct or am i missing something here? Any thoughts?We are using Apps10, UPD 11.Regards,Arunalu  

Currently working with a client who uses customer consignment heavily - all of the items are serialised. The demand site to the customer does not hold stock, so the stock is being transferred to the demand site via an internal purchase transit order line from the supply site, to the demand site. If the customer then decides to return the consignment item we are handling this on an RMA from the customer back to the original demand site (consumption needs to be done before the RMA). This part works fine without issues. However, I am having issues returning the item from the demand site back to the supply site. I have tried to do this using a return on the inter-site PO and also via an RMA and neither work. When using the return on the PO the error states “Subsequent transactions on the serial part XXXX prevent the reversal of this receipt”. When using the RMA back to to the supply site I get the following error “It is not allowed to return in to inventory s

 Kindly let me know how to update “Actual Ship Date”?
