Hello,

 

I have a scenario as follows:

 

Site A (main site) usually manufactures a part, but due to capacity problem wants to send to site B (separate company in IFS). Materials will all be sent from site A free of charge.

 

Site A has been setup primarily as manufactured for the part, but I’ve also setup a purchase part and supplier for purchase part to purchase from site B. 

 

When purchasing and sending materials site A are currently used to using the supplier material function in IFS. My question is, can this be used inter-site? How would this generate a PO for component parts at site B end?

 

If that’s not possible I assume I could make the site A purchase structure blank and have them raise a PO on site B. Site B then runs MRP and generates a PO on site A for all of the components. Just means we wouldn’t be using the familiar supplier material process.
