We need to add a fixed charge to each and every Work Order we create but would like this to be done by the system rather than administrators due to volume of work orders and the tendency for them to forget. How can this best be achieved? thanks,

Hi All!When I create a new task from the maintenance engineer portal,not all of the new reported work task are counted by the NON ASSIGNED element.

I am currently working on IFS Asset Management - Equipment - IFS Cloud lesson which is a recoded session and I am trying to figure out how we create a site that can be attached to a functional object.  

  Hi,On serial objects placed in the equipment structure, there is an option to return a serial object to inventory - "Move to Inventory". The reason to return the Serial Object to Inventory could be for sending it for repair or to take care of an old component as an extra spare object. But it is not possible to return the serial object to Inventory if the Part No linked to the object only has Serial Tracking "At receipt and Issues" and the Serial Tracking "In Inventory"=FALSE. The selection "Move to Inventory" is only enabled when the Part No connected to the serial Object has the Serial Tracking "In Inventory"=TRUEI tested and it is the same behaviour in: APP10 UP16, as in Cloud 22R2 UP5.My customer says that from a logistics perspective, it is highly desirable not to track their parts in stock, only in part serial.Why is it not possible to return a serial object to stock if the item is not serial tracked in stock? The serial tracking is anyway in the part serial catalog.Best Regards

ProblemThere is a customer, who is in 22R2 SU4. Their reported issue appear due to not returning any value from the following method call.BEGIN   -- Call the function   :RESULT := DOMAIN_SYS.Get_Translated_Values(domain_ => :domain_, lang_code_ => :lang_code_);END;  Following is the Get_Translated_Values method content.Both methods return, null. According to the following Get_Ctx_Values__ method, context_value_ variable always returns null in customer environment. domain_ is ‘WorkTypeCategory’value is ‘gb’Following values are available in customer environment. So, my question is, can anyone please let me know, what could be other reasons for not returning any values for , context_value_ := Sys_Context(context_, nvl(value_, 'PROG'), ctx_length_); In 22R2 core environment following records were returned any issue. 

Hi All,I have a purchase part (No inventory part connected) with a connection to non-inventory sales part. If I create a purchase requisition for this part in a work task (connected to a customer) and process it until receipt the purchase order, I do not get sales part auto populate in the sales tab in the work task(screen shot attached). This is tested in one of the IFS cloud demo environments also (22.R2) and can recreate this issue there as well.Looks like a bug. Any information/thoughts about this pls ?. Is there a workaround for this scenario other than adding the sales part manually?Thank you,Roshan

Hi All!Few weeks ago, I couldn’t generate the WO of next line of PM if the status of the actual work task in “not completed”. Today I discover on Aurena V10 (UPD16 version) that I can generate all of the WO one by one without any restriction.Is that a new IFS rule on this object?Thank to all your advices

Hello,The issue I am having is that I am wanting to import some assets but some are already there but incorrect.  The status of these has been set to scrapped. Is there a way to rename the serial number so that I can import the correct information ? 

Hello All.When I have a huge list in my maintenance plan (PM action), how can i hide the first row when the WO is finished. I want to see on the first row only the next one that required a WO to be generated.Thanks a lot

Hi Team, One of our customers had raised an issue with the flow of raising credit invoice for invoiced Customer order. The Customer order is work order connected and SEO type. In App8 For these kinds of invoices we create credit invoices by RMB on the customer invoice and selecting credit invoice. But in App10 for SEO type customer invoices we can’t raise credit invoices through customer invoice window. You have to do this through the invoice preview window by searching for the workorder and then RMB and selecting Credit lines. They have few concerns over this, 1.Finance users doesn’t necessarily have access to Work order windows to raise the credit invoice.2.Raised credit invoice create a new customer order. Which create two Customer order numbers for one scenario. This is how the system works as of now. I would be glad if someone could explain the reason why this is changed in APP10? Best Regards,Peshala

Anyone aware about default data generators for Object Classes in Asset Design Basics, please share some light.

How to create new data in the Serials table?

Hello,I am having difficulty understanding the combination of Failure Analysis Setup Navigator i.c.w. Fault Reporting. It was my initial understanding the FASN should we filled so mechanics would have a smarter/ filtered way of reporting causes.However, what I currently see, is all of the options. This does not seem to directly relate to each other. Could somebody please explain what I am doing wrong?Below a some screenshots;example Item Class: Measuring Equipment​​​​When creating a fault report I see all of the other fault types. While I only defined 2 fault types. The same applies for Causes and Symptoms. Thanks in advance

Equipment Object Navigator>All Objects shows a mix of functional and serial objects. I have added a custom field to the Serial Object entity and would like to display this in the All Objects list. How is that possible? Looking at the existing fields I often see Equipment_Object_API.Method as column name. Maybe someone can elaborate on this entity/view in general. Is the merging of Functional and Serial Object mainly done in the database view?

Does anyone have experience editing object connection services? I would like to create a new service to object connection. The new service is CRIM and we like to connect those records to IFS Business objects (WO, Equipment, …).

Hi, Trying to help customer but did not find any answer in documentation on what is the functionality behind in PM Action fields: -Test Point,-Test Number,-Alt Designation,-MaterialAre they MWO related fields and hence not mentioned in help. Also field definition missing.  

Hello We are trying to work with PM actions but our category objects cannot be connected to these actions. We service trains and the object is mostly a wagon which makes a vehicle. A wagon can be be moved to another vehicle of required.   Should we change our object type to make pm action work? Or is there a workaround? We are using apps 10 with a planned transition to Aurena next year.
