The short version
DynamoDocs automates IFS Cloud document entry for food and beverage producers. For food and beverage producers, ingredient and packaging invoices plus high-volume grocery and foodservice POs demand fast, accurate entry under thin margins. DynamoDocs captures each document, AI reads and classifies it, codes it to product line and lot or date code, validates it, and posts approved records into IFS Cloud through the IFS Cloud REST/OData APIs, so traceability holds and thin-margin orders are entered fast and accurately. IFS Cloud runs ERP, EAM, and field service for asset- and project-intensive enterprises in manufacturing, energy, and aerospace & defense.
The mapping
How Food & Beverage paperwork posts into IFS Cloud
Each document is coded to product line and lot or date code and posted into IFS Cloud as the right native record. Nothing gets dropped into a CSV to clean up later.
| What food and beverage producers send | Where it lands in IFS Cloud |
|---|---|
| Ingredient or packaging supplier invoice | a supplier invoice, coded to product line and lot or date code |
| High-volume grocery or foodservice customer PO | a customer order, coded to product line and lot or date code |
| Order carrying lot and date-code references | a customer order, coded to product line and lot or date code |
| Co-packer or freight bill coded by product line | a supplier invoice, coded to product line and lot or date code |
| Made-to-order RFQ or request for pricing | a quotation in IFS Cloud |
A worked example
IFS Cloud for food and beverage producers, from inbox to posted record
Imagine a food and beverage producer running IFS Cloud that receives an ingredient invoice from a co-packer, it has to carry lot and date-code references for traceability. DynamoDocs picks it up from the monitored inbox (or a drag-and-drop upload), and AI reads every field and line, no template required. It is coded to product line and lot or date code from your rules and vendor or customer history, then validated against totals, required fields, and your own checks. Anything that fails is flagged field-by-field for a quick review; everything clean posts straight into IFS Cloud as a supplier invoice through the IFS Cloud REST/OData APIs. Connects through the IFS Cloud REST/OData projection APIs. Your food & beverage team reviews the occasional exception instead of retyping the whole document, so traceability holds and thin-margin orders are entered fast and accurately.

IFS Cloud for Food & Beverage FAQ
How does DynamoDocs handle food & beverage documents on IFS Cloud?
For food and beverage producers, ingredient and packaging invoices plus high-volume grocery and foodservice POs demand fast, accurate entry under thin margins. DynamoDocs captures each of those documents from a monitored mailbox or upload, reads every field with AI (no per-vendor template), codes it to the right product line and lot or date code, and posts it into IFS Cloud through the IFS Cloud REST/OData APIs. Connects through the IFS Cloud REST/OData projection APIs. Clean documents post automatically; only exceptions reach a person, so traceability holds and thin-margin orders are entered fast and accurately.
How does a ingredient or packaging supplier invoice post into IFS Cloud?
It becomes a supplier invoice in IFS Cloud, coded to the right product line and lot or date code, with header and line-item fields validated before anything posts. Posts supplier invoices, customer orders, and quotations. A visual field-mapping engine shapes the record into exactly what IFS Cloud expects, so nothing is retyped and nothing posts half-filled.
Can it keep our IFS Cloud coding right for food & beverage?
Yes, that is the point. Each document is coded to the right product line and lot or date code from your rules and vendor or customer history, so records arrive in IFS Cloud already coded instead of waiting on a clerk. Anything that fails a rule is flagged field-by-field for a quick fix, which keeps IFS Cloud clean and traceability holds and thin-margin orders are entered fast and accurately.
How do purchase orders and RFQs from food and beverage producers post into IFS Cloud?
Purchase orders become a customer order and RFQs become a quotation in IFS Cloud, with every line, ingredient and packaging supplier invoices included, read and validated first. Maps to your IFS company, site, and part numbers, with project references where they apply.
How much time and money does this save food and beverage producers on IFS Cloud?
Keying one document into IFS Cloud typically takes 5–10 minutes and costs $2–$6 in labor, before the cost of fixing mis-coded product line and lot or date code. DynamoDocs does it in seconds and only flags exceptions, which commonly cuts document-handling labor by 80–95% while traceability holds and thin-margin orders are entered fast and accurately.
