Hi, I am using IFS Enterprise Explorer. Client vers: 9.0.57.0, Server vers:6.90.20.0 I am a new to the application - with little training, so I am sorry this should be a veryy easy question. I would appreciate some orientation around the ’Structure in Tree’ dropdown options for (I am assuming) ...ordering the Object Hierachy. See the attached picture. I seem to have (by default)... an Object ID ordered Hierarchy. The Dropdown for ‘Structure in Tree’, displays ‘Location’ and ‘Process’ fields (amongst others). I would like to know where these fields are exposed in case I can edit them to display the Hierarchy more intuitivelyI am aware that I could add Structural Parent Objects (and provide Alphanumeric ID codes)  however it seems from the drop down and from other answers in the knowledgebase that options for re-ordering the tree are already available .. I have Serial and Functional Objects, and have been loo

Hi All,One of my customer is looking feature in IFS which can be used to conduct Audit on their equipment’s. Asset Audit can be done by internal Auditor or by 3rd Party vendor.Here is a link of an example how usually Asset audits are conducted. Do we have direct feature tied up to Asset Management in IFS where such audits can be conducted and maintained in application for a asset.https://www.sortly.com/blog/how-to-perform-an-asset-audit/I am aware the audit process requirements and technical parameter will change based on different business area of customers. But do we have something common ? Work Around - Use Work Task Template to capture Audit questions, PM Action to fire WOs periodically per equipment. This will maintain audit history based on specific Action used on PM Action and Work Type on WOs.Thanks i

Dear Community, We are currently on IFS Cloud 22R1 (update 5). We were informed that the feature ‘Miscellaneous Resource Allocation’ would be available as of 22R1.Am I checking in the incorrect location or is it available in a later update? Below screenshot of my IFS Cloud view:  Thanks!

Hello All, Any one have ideas on how to acquire IFS Report Designer software that is compatible with IFSAPP 7.5 Regards

Hi,What is the business case when should we copy Project Deliverables Structures to Asset Design, when to Equipment structure? Customer in Cloud.In project deliverables we can copy the project product structure to either Asset Design structure or Equipment structure. This is a parameter setting which one to use. Now I’m wondering when should we choose one or the other? I have understood that from asset design we can copy the structure further to Equipment structure.Anyone knows about this? 

When creating a Retrospective Work Reporting EAM, a Work Type is entered. On the Work Order that is created, the Work Type is blank. Is there a way to automatically have the Work Type added to the Work Order?  The Work Type shows up on the Work Task associated with the Retrospective Work Reporting EAM but my client would like it to also show up on the Work Order record. Thanks,Gregg

Hi,We are fairly new to IFS and still learning. We now have some of our equipment’s that have been disposed off. The Finance Team have processed them to remove from the Service Contracts and Fixed Assets but we are wanting to confirm the best way to remove the Serial Objects.Do we scrap them to remove from Inventory or is there a better Disposal Process to follow to correctly remove these assets as Live Assets in Inventory.Thanks, 

Hi all, We want to use Aurena but it has a lot of errors and functionality missing.   For example: Create a purchase requisition by using the wizard, and without articles, you can not “Connect it” to a work order or a work order task… only Project and ordinary account-dimensions…   Are we the only customer  who is missing this ?  

Hi, Is there any way to add a sorting parameter to these side bars? IFS doesnt recognize that 2 digits are less than 3 digits   

I am using IE to create Lobby Elements for Aurena.  I am trying to create a Lobby Element for Active Work Orders that are 90 days or older.  The Actual Start date field in IE is REAL_S_DATE.The Actual Start Date field in Aurena is RealSDate In IE, on the Data Source Designer, I can set up Condition to beREAL_S_DATE < to_date ('#NOW#', 'YYYY-MM-DD-HH24:MI:SS' ) -90and it works in IE.  If I try to create the Lobby Element for Aurena using the same Data Source, I get an X.  How do I set up the Condition for Aurena?  Does the field name need to be changed to match the one is Aurena?  How do I search for Work Orders that are 90 Days or older on the Active Work Order screen in Aurena?Is this correct? Thanks,Gregg 

Hi All, We are using APPS 8 SP1, In our environment we are using LDAP authentication.While we are using the IFSAPP credential for login to the application, initially we got 3-4 time operation time out after that application login.But the other application users which are authenticate to LDAP, they are not facing any issue.Can any one suggest me, what will the issue of this.

IFS Cloud - I am looking at a request to have a Functional structure and also a Location structure for assets. My pre-conception was that a Location Structure is a different view of the same assets based around a concept of locations. However, this looks to be wrong.  What is the functional purpose and use of a Location structure, that cant be better served utilising the Functional structure , possibly with connections, using map positions etc.  My expectation is that this Location structure will not be visible on MWO as I have not seen it there before.  Any examples of using a Location Structure usefully will be much appreciated.        

Background: A month ago, we updated our MAINT calendar to not skip weekends and holidays.If a monthly PM Action is supposed to be due on the first of a month, but if it was generated prior to the MAINT calendar change, its Maintenance Plan will show some due dates that are on the 2nd or 3rd of a month (if the 1st was a weekend of a holiday).In such a case, I used the “Regenerate Plan” option and the future due dates are all corrected to the first of a month, as expected.What is UNexpected, however, is that PAST maintenance plan entries (with Due Dates that are NOT on the first of a month) are added to the maintenance plan after the REgenerating.For example, the Maintenance Plan tab (prior to REgenerating) had a line with Due Date =1/1/2022 (Saturday), which is good. After I used the “Regenerate Plan” RMB option, in addition to that line, IFS now shows another line under the Maintenance Plan tab with Due Date = 1/3/2022 (Monday), this line

Hello, Whenever I create a PM action, My maintenance Plan does not generate automatically, nor when I click regenerate.I am creating my PM actions with and without a Work Task Template. I can create Work Orders, but if I try to create more than one, it uses the same date range as the first WO.Any insight or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you, Gen 

When you are in work task template there are two fields available that both are called “Created by” and gives different search results. When using advanced search i can see that one is connected to “CreatedById” and one to “DoneBy”. This makes me confused since i cant find information about “DoneBy”. I think this is difficult to understand and very confusing for customers.1. Using search condition “created By” that is connected to CreatedById2. Using search condition “created By” that is connected to DoneBy

Dear Experts,I am trying to depreciate an object. However, I am getting the error below soon after ‘Post Depreciation’ action on the depreciation proposal. Can anyone of you assist me to resolve this issue?  

When creating a New Database task for PM Calendar generation, I have seen examples for the Start and Stop Date being added.  Some of the examples I have seen are actual dates:Question:1- Are these dates actually needed on the Database Task?  When you create a New Schedule, you can add the Start and Stop Dates on that page.2 - Can these dates be in the past (as shown in the screenshot)? Would this prevent any PM Actions outside the Start and Stop Date being generated? or does the date on the New Schedule override these dates?3 - Can you just have SYSDATE and SYDATE+7 for the Start and Stop Dates? Thanks,Gregg 

We have recently implemented automatic reservations in our system for customer orders to attempt to give customers a better real time knowledge of our inventory availability. We are currently reserving blanket orders 60 days out due to items with longer lead-times, while all other orders 365 days out to capture anything that may have got an extended lead time due to supply chain issues. We are experiencing issues in that we are increasing inventory levels by so much due to the amount of blanket orders we service and this is putting a stress on our total inventory value. Have you or other customers used automatic reservations and how has it affected your business? Do you have solutions or tips for ways to handle automatic reservations better?

Hello all,One of the deliverables on the implementation of Asset Management (Service and Maintenance in IFS) is to get insight in future activities.Now I know it is possible to generate Work Tasks, which we could summarize and present. But I don't believe this would suit the request for a Long Term Maintenance Plan.Such a plan (I imagine) would give an overview of larger maintenance activities (overhauls/ revisions/ modifications etc.). Could someone please assist me on this topic? Thanks in advance!Wout

Hi All.Could someone help how could I set up an object transformation from TaskTemplateWorkStep to PmActionWorkStep?My need is to transform an image from worktaskstep template to the pm actions and finally to a workorder. Also as I create a new revision from it.This is the transformation I’m using:TASK_TEMPLATE_ID=PM_ACTION_JOB_API.Get_Std_Job_Id(pm_no,pm_revision,work_list_no),TASK_TEMPLATE_REV=PM_ACTION_JOB_API.Get_Std_Job_Revision(pm_no,pm_revision,work_list_no),WORK_LIST_NO=ROW_NO,WORK_STEP_SEQ=pm_action_work_step_seqTrying to do but getting the error bellow: Tks a lot  Server error messages:580416c0-2cbc-4384-b02a-337d04fa

A service quotation is created and a work order was connected to service quotation using the connect service option, a task template was connected with work order, which got populated on the service quotation as well, service quotation is in released status, then status of Work task template is changed to obsolete and created a new revision of work task template. Now if we try to create new revision of the Service Quotation, we are getting error, that task template is obsolete and its not allowing to disconnect the work order from quotation, nor we are able to change the task template on work order

in the resource demands or in work task template/ PM action resources we can enter ‘additional qualifications’ by RMB option. Then the additional qualifications check box will be checked for the demand line. Other than that, how do we find out about additional qualifications that are required for an employee? when we ‘assign work’ the certificate requirement is not taken as a constraint. ( we can assign to any employee in resource group).  So when we do the work assignment how can we find out which employees has the certificate ( or not!) in a resource group?
