This post is relevant for manufacturing customers using operational reports. It is a heads-up that we are planning to deprecate below listed operational reports.
Background
Although the transition to paperless manufacturing is still in progress, the demand for printed documentation or reports shared as PDFs has noticeably decreased. We have several reports that we believe are either not used or have numerous alternative options available in IFS Cloud for sharing such information. Maintaining these reports still consumes time that could be better spent developing new functionality. Therefore, we plan to deprecate these reports
Reports planned to be deprecated
- Kanban Audit Report
- Kanban Supplier Receipt History Report
- Capability Graph Data
- Qman Sample Value
- SPC Graph Sample Data for Variables
- Analysis Result History
- Recipe Print Out
- Routing Report
- Structure Information Report
- Structure/Routing Report
What happens now?
This deprecation will be communicated officially via the release notes in IFS Cloud 25R1 GA, but we wanted to give this information as a heads-up and also give the opportunity to give feedback if some of these reports are used in a use case where information cannot be shared in another way.
