Landed cost

Context:

I created a purchase order with a unit that is different from the inventory unit of the product

Item's inventory unit = Metric Ton

Purchase order's unit = Cubic meter

The conversion exists therefore, the system accepts to create the line in the purchase order with this unit.

Conversion is: 1MT for 2 cubic meter

I placed the purchase order on a voyage. On the voyage, I estimate a landed costs of 10 EUR per PCS (category : PCS).

As my purchase order line have a quantity of 10 cubic meter, I am thus expecting an estimated cost of 10 cubic meter multiplied by 10 EUR, which makes 100 EUR in cost inquiry.

However, the system calculates the costs based on the inventory unit of the product, i.e. MT and thus the cost inquiry gives me a cost of 5 MT multiplied by 10 EUR, which makes 50 EUR thanks to the conversion.

We would like to change the behavior so that the system can take into account the purchase unit rather than the inventory unit only.  

Incorrect Item number is reflected on Released product details after the creation of Production order/ SO/ Planned order after enabling the following features "Display product info in user's language" and "User specific product name and description" and activating Product information management parameters "Show specified language" and "Show user language" and defaulting a personalized View after adding new filed in the General fast tab in the Item card ex. “Created by” and “Created date and time”.

Add a new Data Entity in the Data Management addressed to import the 'Configuration Rules' within the Bill of Materials (BOM).

Unexpected Quantity and Substitution variance is generated on the Production orders when using Resource groups on the route.

The Resource requirement for the route operation is set for a resource group. The standard cost is calculated considering the resource group as the resource (Item/Resource column)

When the production order is scheduled, the actual resource (which is part of the resource group) that will be performing the operation is suggested. Therefore, the realized cost for the production order is based on the consumption of the routing operation performed by the actual resource.

When ending the production order the system incorrectly calculates Quantity and Substitution variance due to the fact that the standard cost calculation includes resource group while the realized cost includes the actual resource.

Given that the resource group and the resource have the same cost categories configured, the system shouldn't provide any variance in this scenario.

Schedule maintenance works for workers only from the chosen maintenance worker group, when it exists.

Nowadays, when scheduling a work order that has a maintenance worker group filled in in the header, the system does not respect the group of employees and schedules the work for employees outside of the group. 

The module Rebate management is 100% legal entity shared.

There are company constellations where this makes no sense at all. Even worse, it is a big security issue.

In the standard, a user from legal entity A (who has only permissions for legal entity A) can view in the rebate management module e.g. customer information and sales data / rebate transactions of customers in other legal entities.

In a company group with numerous legal entities and almost only B2B customers, this indeed can be a big issue. This "feature" of legal entity shared data can be the reason which makes the module unusable.

It would be great to have a parameter implemented in the Rebate management parameters which controlls, if the data in the module should be legal entity shared in the company group or not.

In Procurement and sourcing > Purchase orders > Purchase order follow-up > Open purchase order lines, the information in the grid only displays the vendor account number and not the vendor's name. It would be greatly beneficial for anyone using this report to have the vendor account name able to be displayed for quick reference. The vendor's name is only available on the Header and not the Lines for a purchase order. Our buyer's reference the open purchase orders report daily for vendor follow-up and accuracy of live orders across the network.

Send a push message to the worker or a group of workers, all or active only workers in the (new WMSv4) app

This would allow the warehouse manager to request a few workers to finish the current pick work in Pickzone 1 and move over to Pickzone 2, or to announce that there is a celebration in the cantine.

The message should be signaled by a sign (red circle with number of messages) in the top right, like in many apps incl. the yammer viva engage app)

It should be displayed in each screen (not only the start screen or menu), also when the user is executing a work.

The worker can press on the symbol to view the message(s).

When posting production order for item with costing method is standard cost, and production order has error quantity which will be scrapped the cost of error quantity is posted to quantity variance account not to the assigned scrap account.

The production performance and efficiency might be distorted, and the quality issues might be hidden.

Production Quantity variance posting account is being used instead.

Required: to get the error quantity cost to be posted in Scrap account assigned.

Actually, it is only possible to add costs, create voyages, and use the different features of Landed costs module regarding the purchase process.

However, a lot of our customers ask us to be able to add costs, create voyage, tracking goods and record 3rd parties invoices regarding the sales process.

Indeed, the cost price of the item will not be impacted but it will be easier to see the margin and it'll improve transportation follow-up on sales side a lot.

Finally, the landed cost features, if replicated on sales side, is way more easy to use than transportation management module for outbound transportation when customer does not track routes and rates.
