Hi ,We are trying to confirm a planned shipment date for one customer order with a date in 2026 but the system will not allow us to go past 31/12/2025. I have set up the accounting periods and all of the vouchers for 2026 but this has not resolved the issue.The planned ship date does not seem to exceed 31/12/25. I am trying to add lines beyond this date.Can you pls explain why.Regards,Patan M.

Register Arrival (into inventory) for self-billing without Receipt Reference

Hi Communiy, I have experience the below system behavior in Register Arrival on 24.1E environment.When I enter ‘Register Arrival’ for PO line with self-billing, Receipt Reference is NOT required.The generated PO supplier invoice has an invoice numbe which comes from counter of ‘AS’ Series ID instead of Receipt Reference.However, if I use different compnay/site in the same envrionment, I can not reprodue this case by using the same pruchase part and supplier. I was required to enter Receipt Reference when I enter arrival registration in this case. Do you have any idea how can I make self-billing PO invoice without Receipt Reference?The below screen shot describes self-billing invoice generated from PO receipt. This one has AUTSUPPINV invoice type and but Receipt Reference is NOT required. Regards,Kohei Okigami

RMA processing after IFS go-live phase when data exist only in legacy tools

Hi Community, We’ve proceeded to our Go-Live and have migrated all outstanding data concerning customer orders, PO’s, etc…. Historical data remains within our legacy software.We are considering that we’ll face the situation where a customer will contact us for items that he would like to return to us as RMA (either for credit or rework/replacement).As it will concern data that won't be in IFS as not been migrated, we are wondering how it could be handled.So here, it’s more a post to ask you for advice/knowledge on how you handled such situation where an RMA needs to be processed in IFS while data exist only legacy software.Thanks in advance for your comments and experiences. Regards.

Stock movement

Good morning Everyone,We have a doubt considering stock movement in IFS APP 10.Besides permission sets, availability controls and controls on sites, warehouses, locations and inventory parts, is there a way in IFS to control whether a user ou usergroup can access or not access a specific inventory location or inventory location group, besides all of the above?So for example, can we user by user, or user group by user group control which inventory locations or inventory location groups they can or cannot have access to?Thanks in advance for your inputs,Carlos Mendes

CO Invoice in Error - "Only a Tax Code with Zero percentage ..."

Has anyone encountered issues in Apps9 where a Customer Order Invoice errors with the below message? The setup is a bit complex - multi site in the same company, multiple places of supply therefore multiple tax situations for the customer, but this error only occurred when I created a CO and applied “Additional Discount” in the CO header. I processed another CO on exactly the same site/customer/parts/tax scenario with discount on the CO lines, and the invoice processed without error. “CO Invoice in Error - "Only a Tax Code with Zero percentage is allowed when Customer is exempted for Taxes..." Any thoughts/suggestions/solutions gratefully received! ThanksLinda

Error Message when processing a RMA

We are experiencing this on 2 RMAs currently, 721 and 1048. (please check the image for the error) - The commonality between the 2 RMAs is that they were processed as a Return to a different Site than the originating RMA (Original Order was placed in ST003; return being sent to ST001).- The originating RMA 720 and 1047 were set up and linked to the customer order the parts were sold under. I just tried to receive in the parts under 721 with a different lot number and was received in Successfully. We will now have to manually adjust the inventory to reflect the correct lot number which is not ideal, but the RMA can be credited.What’s the reason behind this error?

Search in Context IPAP IFS Cloud

I posted this question before but the conversation has gone stale so I’m posting it again.. Can we do “search in context” in IFS Aurena (cloud) on the IPAP screen like we can in IEE?The reply that I got was not on the IPAP screen but another one, if you post screenshots please verify that we can sort and filter on the IPAP screen. I know that search in context is available elsewhere.

Changing Lifecycle stage of just one part

Hi,Is there any way to manually changing the lifecycle stage of just one part without affecting other parts or company level/ asset class level set-up? We have one part tagged as expired but we need to change the status since it’s not allowing us to receive the new purchases. The only way I can see if to perform a dummy receipt and an issue out to trick the system. Appreciate if anyone can share what they did.Thank you in advance

Cancelled order line with unreported pick list

Hello,I have a bit of an odd one.We have managed to cancel a customer order line that had an open, unreported pick list against it.I didn’t think the system would allow this, but now the order line is showing as cancelled, but the order line parts still show as reserved and on a pick list..I’ve tried cancelling the pick list to clear the reservation, but I get an error saying the pick list cannot be reported for customer order line objects is status cancelled. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can clear the pick list and reservation? We are on Apps 10 UPD 8. Many thanks,Steph.

Blanket PO Creation

Blanket PO is where we get approval for first PO line and we add subsequent PO lines within the approved amount. However, once we enable “Project Unique Procurement” check box at project level; it is not possible to add subsequent lines to the PO due to below error. Is there a workaround for this or any other way of creating a bulk PO from purchase order window itself.

The Purpose of Address Setup screen

Hi, Can someone explain the purpose of the Address Setup screen in Enterprise Basic Data? Even when the User defined Row Length is set to 35, I can see Addresses 3 and 4 filled in up to 100 characters. It seems Addresses 1 and 2 have no bearing on this setup anyway

Work task material Line does not show up in IPAP

Hi All, I’m doing some tests and having an issue. I’m creating a Service Quotation that is released and accepted and converted to a Work Order. I put the Work Order and the connected Work Tasks in Status ‘Released’. Now I was under the assumption that the ‘materials’ Required for the Work Task should be visible in the IPAP, correct? However they do not show up.When I take a duplicate of my Material Part Line, that duplicate line DOES show up on the IPAP.Another strange element: when I try to change the Qty on my existing Line, I get a pop-up to complete the ‘Required Fields’ but there is no more Required fill that I did not enter. So that also raises questions. What can be going wrong here? best RegardsRoel
