Hello IFS Experts, Hoping to hear some ideas or solutions to an issue we are having!

Currently for our offshore PO shipments, when we are notified of this shipment, we receive into arrival into a non-nettable location. By doing this it allows finance to have a payable and trace ownership of our in-transit materials through GL. Once the material is physically received, we then move the material from that receipt to arrival non-nettable location into a nettable picking location. This was the recommended way from IFS during our implementation 2 years ago.

We would like a solution to not have to receive in material that is not physically received because we may need to change the Incoming Dispatch Advice/PO Lines if we find any updates or corrections are needed for the shipment ID #, quantity, or price, or most often the needed to change is the arrival date. Once received the system, it does not allow changes, which this makes sense because it has been received into the system.

Does anyone share our same situation and have potentially come up with another solution?

Does anyone know if there any new opportunities within IFS future roadmap that brings these two functional area needs together, Cloud version possibly?

• If we do receive into arrival it satisfies Finance payable requirements as well as tracking ownership of the goods through GL, but does not satisfy the needs from Supply chain by receiving the PO which closes the opportunities to update the arrival dates. 
• If we do not receive into arrival, Finance has no automated way for creation of payable or to track ownership of those goods, but Supply Chain will now be able to update PO and lines until physically received into their location.
