Assets (Asset Management)

Hi IFS Guru, Can anybody enlighten me on the following scenario: I m creating PM Action on piece of an equipment without Work Task Template, need to put some information about craft man hour etc. I can visualize that once Work Order is generated from PM Action, you can go and put steps, material and man-hour for each steps. But this will create a lot of work for the planner, to go and amend all the Work Order with the required info, is there any work around by putting all these detail without using Work Task Template ? I am using IFS Cloud Version R 22.1.1 Shez

Hi All, is there any way to not include a resource group in the MPB scheduling as the same for the individual resource?E.g. I have a work task with 4 groups in demands, but just one group should be assign in MPB, the person in this group will receve in mobile and the others are just assistants.There is this option for individual resource, but is there anyway to do this for the resource group?I need to include the others group in demand because of the planning hours and costs. The leader of the task will register the time report for each of them in mobile device.Tks a lot

Hi All!Is it possible to make all WO of MP visible in the tile of portal maintenance engineer as non affected?Thank you All  

Hi all!We are using the maintenance engineer portal to create maintenance tasks.Do you know when do I need to provide information on those fields on resource detail page?Is there a link between this field and the LoV of resources groupe. The resource group LoV is not rising up when the field (Site & Org main) is not filled.Thank you 

Hi,I would like to know the real business reason of why Category objects are not included in PM actions.For example, let’s assume I have a Solar farm and I need to Group all panels by adding this as a Category object so all solar panels can be inspected other than defining separately each.Then I add this category object on a Service Contract but here I could not create a PM action so that I cannot create regular work orders activities for this objects? Instead we can include a category objects in a work order though its not possible in a PM then we need to add Contract details each time in work orders which is not feasible?I understand that this is possible if the Solar farm is defined as a functional object setting the relevant object level. Then please explain how exactly we can use this function with some actual business function? Best Regards,Kasun 

Hi I would like to used QRCode that point to IFS screen The url a catch does it change or it never change ? if it often change what is the solution ?  Regards, Thanks

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.
