Please guide me on the steps and requirements to set up IFS Apps10 to auto-generate Work Orders / Tasks for Preventative Maintenance on Functional Objects.We want to auto-generate Work Orders for Slot Machines (Functional Object) in bulk based on PM Actions like eg. Weekly Inspections on a bank of slot machines. Online documentation does not help in terms of the basic data and config and steps required to set this up.

Hi,IFS Cloud 24R2. We have main warehouse and secondary (department) ware house. In maintenance secondary warehouse is alway used to issue materials. But reservation happens on main warehouse instead of secondary warehouse. Is there a way to set up reservation default warehouse for maintenance?Availability control doesn’t help.Thanks in advance.

I everyone, i have an issue when I want to create a new service line : When I try to add a scope line, no objects are displayed in the LOV. If I cancel the line and try to recreate it, the LOV appears well.Do you know where it comes from and if there is a solution ? Thanks

In 22R1 there is a new concept introduced to identify equipment object, key will be “Equipment Object Sequence”. Object can be moved from one site to another, also to another company. What appears to be not possible is to change Object ID. I am currently in project where the Object ID itself tells in which process facility etc. the object is located and therefore they are constantly (in their legacy system) changing the Object Identification. The object ID could change from e.g. 10-22-45-67-11 => 10-22-44-67-11. There is of course a unique ID in the background, similar to Equipment Object Sequence.  Once we now have a new key, Equipment Object Sequence, does it make easier or even practically possible to make modification that would allow to change the Object ID?  Is that kind of functionality in the requirements backlog? Viewing the location in functional hierarchy in equipment object navigator has been proposed, but the problem is that it does not show the parent structure of give

We have tested creating 1 Invoice for multiple Work Tasks (Reported) and it works.If we create 2x Service Quotation->Work Order->Work Task, set it to Reported and try and create Generate Invoice Preview, we get an error “No Invoice Preview(s) created for given criteria.” Although when creating separate Invoice Preview from Conclude Work Order for these 2 Work tasks, the individual invoice Previews are created.Is it that Generate Invoice Preview does not work for Works that come from Service Quote? Or is it that there might be a setting missing to allow this?This would be a critical win for one of our customers if it would work.Any suggestions are welcome and much appreciated.Thanks,Rita

Hi,From viewing past community posts on accumulated Condition-based PM generation, the calculation to predict next maintenance is the last 5 valid measurements. Is there a way to increase the number of measurements it considers for the calculation? Thanks    

New employee does not have access to workorders in time registration , and I can not find where to add the employee into maintenance. Can anyone tell me where the employee/employee number should be added , I guess in basic data somewhere. The employee is already added to a resource group which is “ticked on” for using in Maintenance, is added to site, company, etc… In timeregistration, only Project is available, and not workorders…. We are running IFS Cloud 23R2

Hi, We have a requirement adding more object status for functional objects. In IFS APP 10 we have three fixed status set by IFS like “In Operation”, “Out of Operation” and “Scrapped”. IFS doesn’t have the option to add more status using administrative / regular users as like changing basic data. Please note that, now we are in process to move in IFS Cloud by next year from IFS APP10. I can understand, it’s a bit of customization required. My question is, if I requested to IFS for such change, does IFS require IFS core code modification ?  Thank you

How does the “Technical Lifetime” is defined and used when we define Functional object for Maintenance actions? In what processes it is used and how? 

Hello All, We are having an issue with IFS objects and GIS connections. Hoping for a resolution.We have one base layer and one feature layer, and they have been added to a layer group and we can see the objects using the GIS MAP page. We want to see the “object” from the Functional Objects page, and we have followed the documentation ( Page name = Functional Object;  Label = View Map ; Page = page/GISMapClient/MapPage; NavigateFilter = { LuName = 'EquipmentFunctional', KeyRef = $[KeyRef]}                        KeyRef did not work well - so we tried using MchCode as well.                                                     With MChCode, the link has the correct object id (25057)        {page/GisMapClient/MapPage;$filter=LuName%20eq%20'EquipmentFunctional'%20and%20KeyRef%20eq%20'25057';path=0.1632440489.1043127562.1054673758}. The GIS map opens but it does not filter/highlight the object that we want to view…..instead it shows all the objects on the GIS map.   Any insights / ideas woul

Hi All, I am trying to setup the "Enable Navigation from IFS to GIS Map" for Functional Objects but am having little joy. I have setup the button to the best of my abilities as per this document About GIS Map (ifs.com) However the instructions are not correct for NavigateFilter. I have used the tool to add the filter "LuName eq 'EquipmentFunctional', KeyRef eq $[KeyRef]" but when I click on the View Map button it opens the map but does not select or zoom to the asset. This is the URL that is being generated to open the map:https://topo-d07.build.ifsdemoworld.com/.../MapPage...Any help would be much appreciated as we ideally need this by close of play Monday. Many thanks in advance

Hi Experts,We have a requirement to identify whether technician-reported times are overlapping. For example, a technician might submit one time entry from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM, and another from 10:45 AM to 12:00 PM. As you can see, there is a 15-minute overlap between the two entries. We need a way to either prevent such overlaps or at least identify and flag them for review.Currently, the application does not restrict technicians from entering overlapping time reports.We would like to know: Can the standard application be configured to validate and prevent overlapping time entries? Is there any existing validation mechanism for this? Specifically, can the “Is Clocking Validated” field in time clocking be used for this purpose? If so, how does it function and how can we leverage it? Any guidance on how to implement or configure such validation would be appreciated   Thanks.KM

Hi All, I’m working with a customer that recently upgraded from Apps10 to IFS Cloud 24.2.3.In Apps10 they were using Repair Work Orders to install moulds/tools in production machines. Now they have a RWO in IFS Cloud:task 12570 - used to issue for repair and move the serial to Inventory task 12571 - should be used to issue the serial and move the serial from Inventory to In Facility As you can see from the Serial Object History, everything worked well to move the Serial Object to Inventory.Now when we try to issue the serial in order to place it In Facility we get the message that Serial Object already exists in the given site, so it cannot be moved.anonymous_block at line 1 MANUAL_ISSUE_ASSISTANT_HANDLING_SVC.CRUD_UPDATE at line 5393 MANUAL_ISSUE_ASSISTANT_HANDLING_SVC.CRUD_UPDATE___ at line 7608 MANUAL_ISSUE_ASSISTANT_HANDLING_SVC.CRUD_UPDATE___.CORE_PROJECTION_MANUALISSUEASSISTANTHANDLING at line 7602 MANUAL_ISSUE_ASSISTANT_HANDLING_SVC.ISSUE___ at line 8128 MAINT_MATERIAL_REQ_LINE_

Hi team,I have equipment whose status is out of operation. However, work orders are still generated using PM action.I would like to know how to stop generating WOs for PM Action when the equipment object status is Out-Of-Operation. Is this functionality possible in a standard system?   

Hi,Hi, I have a problem with publishing an HTML model in the Scope Tool. When I export it in two language versions – EN and CZ – the generated model is only created in English, and it's not possible to switch to Czech. Do you have any recommendations or experience on how to generate the HTML model in a language version other than English?  

Hi IFS,I can see some changes in New Service Request process In 24R2 version 4 and 24R2 version5. Please send us information behind these changes we still dont understand why it has been changed like that.Step 3 that is Task/Appoinments is missing in 24R2 version5ThanksKM

Hi, We’re on Cloud 23R2. I have set up data on Failure Setup Navigator. The expectation is that when a dispatcher records a service request using “New Service Request” page, after filling data for symptom, and clicking Next, it comes to this page.The Task Template is not auto picked based on the information entered before. Instead, any task template can be picked manually from the list. Additionally, even in the Tech Portal (screenshot below), when completing an assignment, even if the technician fills in all information like the Item Class, Failing Function, Fault, Cause, etc there is no automatic application of the Work Task Template. What is the purpose of attaching a WT template in the Failure Analysis navigator? How is it intended to be automatically linked with the process?TIA 

Is there a way in Equipment Object Navigator to see if a child node is out of operation (Red) without having to click through and expand each parent node (especially in a large tree). In the image below there are objects one level down that are out of operation but there is no immediate visual indication of that.Or is there a way to turn the parent icon Red if at least one child node is Red?Equipment Object Navigator 

Hei,Can you please make it possible to rename regardless of ownership (Company Owned is supported today) but for us it would be a MASSIVE help if we could be able to rename assets with ownership Company Rental Asset / Customer Owned as well.We are renaming our tools on a daily basis (Ownership Company Rental Asset / Customer Owned), and have approx. 4000-5000 renames yearly, so to have this as a core functionality would be a massive help.Please make this possible.

Hi Experts.We have this requirement to capture engineer start and end times of Time registrations. Example: Here in MWO they enter start and Stop time so the hours is captured. But in the Cloud we could not see these start and Stop times instead the Hours only??   We need to produce a Report to the HR with these Start and End times so that they can analyze Productivity with engineer time reporting pattern, so where in the application we can get these data? Following is an Exmple from another system you can see From and To time as well,,what we are after.   Kind RegardsKM

Hello,what does the zoom function “Permits” do in the form “Work Task Template”?It never provides any information about permits, even if permit is connected to Work Order an Work Task Template is used in that Work Order.What connected between Permit and Work Task Template should exist to see permits via zoom function Permits? 

Is there a way to display the Current Portion of a Lease in IFS? Ideally would want to be able to reclass the entries monthly into their own current and non-current accounts rather than a singular Liability account. Is this possible? From IFS: Want to show: 

When trying to create a Calendar based Maintenance Plan, and having entered all the relevant data,  the system generates an error message Error MessageThe system does not recognize any of either the Action specified in the Selection Parameters as being valid:Actions & their validityNor does it recognize any of the PM Actions within the system:I can find no way at either the Actions or PM Actions level of being able to do anything that will change their status or validity to prevent the error message from being generated

Hi All,While create new work from MWo facing error as per screenshot. Is there any setting we have to allow creation of new work apart from configuring workflows.We are using 24R2. 

Hi Experts, Could someone share the 25R1 IFS Documentation for “finish with work task” functionality in Work order? Regards,Thilina.
