Hi FolksWhat is the most convenient way to manage team/crew members? Is the Resource Navigator the only tool? For example, 5 teams/brigades of 2-3 people go to the field every day, but the composition of the teams may change every day. Maybe some mobile solution for the composition of the team management? 

Hi folks,Does anyone know if Rnd decided to remove the functionality that was available until IFS APP10 UPD7, that we could change assignment status of an employee after transfer to mobile before the user download it. After UPD8, It’s not possible any more. Could anyone help please? The situation of my customer is that it has some external employees that they do a work but don’t have license, therefore the planner needs to assign a task to them and report time using the status change of the assignment.They send to mobile because the have some users that have license.UPD 07 UPD08 and 09 - Not available anymoreTks a lot

In this particular customer project, they have 2 companies operating in China and Taiwan. China uses the simplified Chinese – Sim Sun and Taiwan uses Traditional Chinese – Ming lu. They want to see the standard reports in these respective language forms. I have already configured things for China - where the language is ‘Chinese - simplified (zh)’ with a compatible font (SimHei) and everything is working fine.  The issue I am having is that China does use the zh language code and reading into the ISO standards zh is used for both simplified and traditional by adding the sub-fixes CN and TW. IFS currently has the simplified zh language added and in the RFC 3066 code loaded as zh-CN for China as it should be. My problem is that we cannot use the zh twice as the language to get a RFC 3066 code of zh-TW loaded which should be Traditional. I tried to add the traditional Chinese language using zh and it will not allow me to enter it twice. How do I get IFS to load both fonts with the same la

Hi everyone,could any one help with this issue? I created an assortment, linked two parts and activeted to limit the sync parts to mobile but no parts are shown in mobile.I already linked to the mobile user in mobile parts basic data, sync all the entities.The flag “sync all parts” in TAS is off.I’m using IFSAPP V10 UPD8Do I need to do something else?tks 

We are looking for best practices in IFS10 when it comes to work task planning for several resources.In the example below we have one work task template with one work list connected to several resources. The duration of the work list is 3 hours. In the scenario above, each resource will not use 3 hours, but we want to keep it to one work task since they work together on the task. Is there a way to plan the duration per resource, other than splitting the work list into one work list (and work task) per resource? Our aim is to use the Resource Analysis to analyze the planned hours per resource group. 

Hi,I have read a few whitepapers on portfolio management from IFS. However I have never seen any practical demos or system setup showcasing a solution.Most companies probably run an external tool. So do we but this is not to our satisfaction. Our portfolio management is basically running a spreadsheet managing a portfolio of billions of SEK and a very large number of inititiatives.We are trying to find a solution within IFS. Any experiences or advice would be most welcome.Best RegardsAnders

Hi everyone, I’ve been trying to connect a tool/equipment resource to a serial object in IFS Apps 10 but so far I have not succeeded. Does anyone know the exact steps to follow to do so ? I have noticed the empty field “ID object” on the Tool/equipment page but I can access the LOV or enter any data. Thank you everyone. 

I have a customer, who configured PM Actions with ‘Performed Date Based’ option, and wants to schedule the Maintenance Plan lines through Maintenance Planning Board.The Maintenance Plan Lines are scheduled through the MPB and generate the Work Order for the first line and execute. When the Work Order is completed, the succeeding Maintenance Plan Lines in the PM Action will be regenerated and the lines revert to ‘Needs Rescheduling‘ status.  With this, the customer not able to use the MPB for the PM Actions. Any Idea how other customers are doing scheduling with these type of data setups.

Hi All,When I try to accept the Service Quotation which is created from a PM Work Order (Work Order generated from PM Action) getting an error as ‘It is not possible to modify object for a work order generated from a PM action.’ Any idea? Or is it Service Quotation can’t be used for PM Work Orders?ThanksBhaskara

We have been told there is an O&G functionality where the offshore users can view inventory parts onhand on other rigs. We can’t find it in the documentation or in the application. Is someone using it and where is it found? We are running IFS10 UPD8 O&G Extension

I get  error message TASK_RESOURCE_SEQ when I try to open sheet Time Reports on a work order task…  I have checked that everything regarding this has been granted in the role I am using for test.

IFS10, UPD8 O&G Extension We are planning to start use the automatic ordering of spare parts based on demands on Work Tasks. To achieve this we have set the planning method to B on all inventory parts, parameters as per below.  Now, we have scheduled the job Create Order Proposal for one site to run each night. The problem is that it runs forever: The job started yesterday morning at 01:00 is still running… Parameters in the scheduled task are set as per below. We want to create an order proposal for all demands on all parts on work tasks, which is the reason for entering % in the parameters.  Questions: Why is the background job never finished?Is there a limit of how many parts the order proposal creation can handle? Any other limitation when it comes to demands, like planning horizon or similar?

We are on version 8.  The following Information Message was received when attempting to receive an asset into inventory.  The inventory location is valid.  Were are Inventory Location Expiration Dates set? The Expiration Date for this location is 5/5/2020.  Do you want to proceed with the arrival?

We are investigating how we can use Project forecasting in a way to follow up the forecasted total cost of a project (activity).  Now, we have entered estimates for all activities.  Planned cost driver: Estimated Cost Progress method: Manual Our idea is to have the estimated cost as the initial EAC. BUT if the actual costs exceed the EAC we would like the actual cost in relation to the manually entered cost progress to be calculated as the EAC.  Example 1:  Estimated cost = 1000 USD Actual cost = 1500 USD Cost progress = 100% This would lead to EAC = 1500 USD Example 2:  Estimated cost = 1000 USD Actual cost = 1500 USD Cost progress = 50% This would lead to EAC = 3000 USD This is definately not how IFS is designed. But whatever alternative we try out, we end up with the estimated cost of 1000 USD either as the ETC or the EAC of the budget.  With the forecast option “EAC Recalculated” we end up with 1000 USD as ETC and 2500 USD as EAC. With the forecast option “ETC Recalculated” we end

I need some help understanding how Planned Finish Date and time is calculated on the Maintenance Plan of the PM Action. It seems like the system is only looking at the work list with the longest duration when calculating the Planned Finish Date. If I have a work list with duration of 4 hours, my Planned Finish Date will be 4 hours after my Planned Start Date, even though I have multiple operations with shorter durations on the PM Action. I have set up dependencies for all work lists (Finish to Start). RMB on the line and select Jobs and Work Lists displays the correct date and time for each work list and the generated work orders also have the correct planned start and finish values. Any suggestions on how to fix the Planned Finish date on the maintenance plan?

Hi,   Is there a way for a user to receive an alert when a part is received in stock /manufactured other than subscribing to changes on the purchase orders or shop orders.   Thanks !

We have a Lobby Element that summarizes orders by status for 4 date periods. Now we want drill-down capabilities so when they click on any of the Status rows they see the detail behind it- Order#, Status, Date, Quantity, Price.   I couldn’t find any documentation on this- does some exist? I didn’t see an Element that has this; Link looks like it just drills down into a screen, not a report. Would it/could it drill down into the Customer Order screen with parms to restrict results?  

Hi, we have a prospect customer in Tel aviv, Israel and seeking the local support. Could anyone introduce a local IFS partners? Thank you!
