Hi,

 

When i create a Purchasing control plan with all basic data set up correctly (compared with IFS Cloud) and then create a purchase order, register this purchase order at arrival, the arrival can still be registered without filling in the mandatory control plan analysis filled in.

 

 

Sample frequency trigger is: At Arrival

Inspection percentage is 100%

Receive case is: Receive into arrival and inspect at Arrival

Control plan is mandatory for site and part.

 

My experience with IFS cloud is with the manufacturing control plans, where clearly an operation cannot be approved without giving in these analysis results and where the option is available (button) to fill in these results. That`s what i`m missing in Apps10 Purchasing control plans.

 

So, 2 issues:

  1. The purchasing control plan that is mandatory can easily be ignored when registering for arrival. It can also not be added afterwards (to a separate purchase order)
  2. No clear option to fill in the control plan analysis, Or how to fill in the results correctly?

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Regards,

Michiel

Issue 1
In Register Arrivals, the mandatory analysis appears as being ignored because it has no role in the process. The analysis is related to the Receipt record that is created by registering the arrival of a product. You would not be able to move any of the product from Arrival to stock and complete the Receipt without confirming the analysis.
And yes, there have been requests to allow Receipt-specific Control Plan Lines similar to the functionality in a Shop Order Control Plan, but nothing has been done in this area.

Issue 2
Looking at the Control Plan > Purchase Order Analysis tab on the Receipt, I see that I have an Analysis in Planned status. This was generated by the Arrival trigger, and I must enter and confirm results in this Analysis to allow the receipt to be completed. When I right-click on the line, I navigate to the Analysis Result page where I can enter my results.

 

Hi ​@matt.watters, 

 

Regarding this topic, i have a question where you might help me with as well..

When i want a Purchase Part to be (received and) inspected at Arrival, i want the documents to be present and according to that approval the parts can continue, where am i able to see which criteria must be inspected to determine if the inspection results are approved? (In the Register Inspection Results-field)

So, in this case it`s about a purchase part that doesn`t have a control plan connected (yet), but does require an inspection - the presence of documents. Where can i see the requirements of the inspection to determine if the parts are approved? Nothing pops up or is indicated where to find this criteria…

 

Looking forward to your reaction, thanks in advance!

​@Michiel12Guide I would recommend the non-control plan inspection requirements to be in a document connected to the Supplier for Purchase Part. Through an Object Connection Transformation, such as below, this documentation would then be visible at the Receipt page where you are registering your inspection results.

Dear Matt,

 

Thank you very much for your response and explanation. I haven't gotten around to it yet, and our client prefers a different approach, so my question is no longer relevant for now. When it does, it would be helpful to have your response available. Thank you very much!

 

Best Regards,

 

Michiel
