Dear community,
I wonder if the following is possible? any ideas would be great.
I know you can peg the Material Req demand to existing PO “manual pegging” but this is for non-inventory part or non part coded items.
Any help would be great.
Thanks.
David

Hi David,
There is no direct option you can use to connect already created no part purchase order lines to an existing work order.
But you can try using Divide Postings on Work Order functionality in Manual Supplier Invoice form.
Usage
Use this window to distribute the costs in a supplier invoice to a work order in IFS/Work Order Management, provided that the invoice is finally posted. This allows for internal cost follow-up on the external cost of each work order. This window is reached via the Work Order right mouse button option in the Manual Supplier Invoice and Final Posting of Supplier Invoice windows. The upper part of the window shows information on the supplier invoice. In the lower part, you can enter information for one or several work orders to which the costs in the supplier invoice are to be distributed.
Hope this information helps.
Best Regards,
Thilini

We used the divide posting on the Work Order Window in the Manual Supplier Invoice screen and it worked as described, but we couldn't add it into the work order.
In my opinion since the postings were done, that was enough.

Hi
A quick follow up question: what version of IFS are/were you using? We have apps 10 and I’ve been unable to find this functionality at all.
Hi
We haven’t had any luck finding this functionality in apps 10. Which is unfortunate because we feel this functionality would be really beneficial in our case. We have a scenario where we could have a PO with 3 lines if this functionality existed, but our workaround without the functionality has resulted in a PO with 150 lines. There’s still mention of the functionality in the apps 10 online documentation, too.
This is just my own theory, but my guess is that when they introduced work tasks in apps 10 as the transactable object, there was some reason this functionality wasn’t recreated for work tasks. We’ll eventually be moving to IFS cloud , so my hopes are that that functionality will return in cloud.
Thanks!
