Community,

question here.

a product is built in-house via a shop order, so it has its own as-built structure.  then it is not sold to customer, and used in-house as well. and it is handed over to maintenance department. then, maintenance department might need to disassemble the part and re-use the component onto other shop orders. so question here, how IFS could handle this?

The reason for this question is, we realized that the serial-controlled components being disassembled via work order, cannot be reused onto other in-house shop orders, as the previous as-built structure is still valid. we will get error message “ ...there are too few tracked component XXXX...” on shop order when you are trying to receive the shop order.

thoughts?

For this purpose you can use a multilevel repair shop order. 

You setup the site to use multilevel repair shop order.

Then create a repair shop order. Reserve / issue the serial number of the product to disassemble. Then you can remove components from the as-built structure and receive them back to stock as Salvage Parts using the multilevel structure tab (or separate page in Aurena)

@Björn Hultgren thank you for your input.

so it should not be the work for maintenance team right? the object they are working should be customer object, correct?

Unfortunately I’m not much familiar with maintenance and work orders. Just know that multilevel repair shop order is a way to disassemble parts back into stock keeping as-built updated.
