Hi,in work task with workorder connected to projectis it possible to have invent order by default instead of project order ?because my stock is not on project.Regards

It would be nice to have the ability to choose to define a maintenance document reference, revision number and revision date on the maintenance order that would then be spread to the work tasks. This would allow the engineering or planning groups to define what the current revision of their reference document is when creating and starting the maintenance work. Keeping that information on each work task will then allow the technicians that perform the work to know at a glance which specific documents and revisions they should be following to complete the work. Technicians would also need the ability to modify these reference fields in case of a mismatch or error.

Hello,Has anyone faced the issue in apps 9, the search field in a wizard not lasting till next time, it always gives a new search wizard, without the previous memory? This is not common for all the users but this is not user friendly for a planner that he has to enter the data every time he comes from a different page where else the standard functionality would allow you to see the searches from the previous day as well.Any suggestions or feedbacks?

We have found an issue when we create a Customer Order that originates from a Business Opportunity.When we change the quantity, it will add another line of discount and doubling it. Business Opportunity created for 2 units and converted into a Customer Order: Changed quantity to 3 units and get this pop up (the first 25% discount comes in automatic from the Customer Agreement?): Now line level shows 50% discount instead of the 25% mentioned in the agreement: When I right mouse on the line and go to Order Line Discount, I can see 2 lines now - 1 for agreement and 1 for manual? Doesn’t matter if we add and deduct the quantity, an additional line will be added? Is this a bug or a setup issue in the Customer Agreement?  Thanks,Michael

Hi, IFS has multiple asset related tools.  Looking for suggestions on the following.  I can’t get into details else you will know the client. Client has a vision for the future, where they have visibility to all assets, the content / configuration of all assets.  Assets can be located globally.  Assets would be owned by the client as well as owned by other agencies.  Number of assets would be large, probably several hundreds of thousands. Vision is the ability to know the configuration of an asset before a service technician steps on site for a repair or enhancement. Part of the business is managing these assets in terms of service, upgrades, repairs.  Knowing the configuration of all these assets would be very helpful for increasing up time (consider most assets as critical to the safety operation).  Suggestions would be very helpful, I have my ideas, but that’s just based on what I already know. This will be for a future effort, so this would include IFS Cloud version / not limited t

When it comes to defining project deliverables, there is an option to create an asset structure (followed by a functional structure) and an equipment structure. What are asset structure (also functional structure) and equipment structure in a real business context? Can someone provide an example from the real business world?

Hi team,In the scheduled tasks, is there any way to set the current system date as the value for the above marked “From Date” field dynamically everyday?Thanks in advanced.

I have a Service Contract with a service line that has a Location as  the scope.This location is connected to the customer of the service contract.Location has multiple Serial Objects connected to it.When I create a PM action connected to this Service Line, I can select any of the serial objects connected to my location.But I cannot generate any Work Order from this PM Action. I get this error in PM Action/Maintenance Plan/WO Generation Error note column.ORA-20110: PmAction.NOTASKGEN: No Service Contract found, Work Task not GeneratedLooks like the PM generation process does not find serial objects connected the location.Am I missing something in my data setting or is this a functional limitation?Thank you. 

HiDo you know why i get an error when i accept the assignment in worktask ? I like to create an other visit. Ressource capacity Parent ressource capacityThanksregards  

Hi All, What is the difference between Group ID and Object Type on the Serial Object? Group ID allows us to group Serial Objects for classification - but Object Type seems to be doing the same thing and has additional technical advantages.So what is the added value of the Group ID? Additional question: can these filled be auto-completed on creation of the Serial Object based on their part? It seems foolish having to manually define these every time we create a Serial Object. Is there any standard IFs functionality or are we directly looking at a CRIM? Best RegardsRoel

The actual object in the work task is not filtered by the work task site. How do you get the work task to display only the objects related to that site?

We have a user trying to generate a Work Order from a PM Action Maintenance Plan but the RMB → Generate Work Order option is not appearing. He is able to generate all others apart from 2. What would prevent a user from being able to generate the Work Order? Thanks, 

Hi IFS Guru,I am looking for the insight, about Priority field in Fault Report, if I will select the Priority e.g. within 1 Week, will system give the Latest Start Date and Latest Finish Start, I need this, once I will select the priority, system should give the LAFD (Last Allowable Finish Date), which is fundamental to our business process applicable for Corrective Maintenance Work Order generated through Fault Report. Regards Shehzad   

We need to update a Time Report that has been transferred with the incorrect Hours. How can we correct? we cannot remove from Work Task as we get an error How can we reverse the transfer and correct the Task Transaction?

How can we trace components being sent out for repair when the  components were received as one asset Here is my scenario I generated one RMA for a valve assembly - the Valve assembly was then received for repair We do not know what the valve assembly requires  hence why the customer is sending it in for assessment / repair once the valve assembly is assessed a few components of this assembly need to be sent out for Repair  EX:Generic part # 3454365677   was received  under RMA X112233 - It is now received and placed in our inventory under customer owned WO is generated “ 12345 The valve is then assessed  and  a few components of this assembly need to be sent out for RepairHow are we able  trace components received under one asset better yet how can we tie in those components to the main Generic part originally received ?

Hi IFs Guru, Looking forward help  on creation of Spare Parts with Quantity etc. and then link to Object ID so that we can use it in WO created on the same Object IDExampleCreate Mechanical Seal as Spare Parts with Qty 2  and attached it to the Object ID XXX-130-P-0001.Appreciate if you can provide the steps to create such scenario.
