Assets (Asset Management)

Hello together, at the moment the “attributes”/”technical classes” are so to say available when clicking on an service object and then to scheduling information and from there clicking on the attachment tab and from there clicking on attributes. Please see attached the screenshot. Could we please bring these information up on a higher level, so we have a generalistic view about all possabilities for fields/functionalities? ThanksMarc

An Object was moved from CIP to Equipment and then we received a credit from the vendor.  The credit is sitting in CIP as a negative.  How do I get this out of CIP and applied to the original asset?  I have tried to add value to the object along with adding a child to the object and the message is “the value can’t be a negative number.”  What is the best way to accomplish this?

Hello,Current our company uses the FASN (Failure Analysis Setup Navigator) to follow the Maintenance Strategy for each Item Class.But sometimes are performed specifics studies, assessments and this studies must be inside the IFS and connected to that specific Item Class.Of course we can attach inside of each Item Class their respective studies, although we need a more centralized library, where I can identify all my studies/assessment files and manage where they are applied.Is there any documentation management where we can do this kind of thing? And use IFS as a live library for strategy in FASN?

Hi!Where can I find the Interval setting for events in PM actions in IFS? I want to configure different PMs to generate at different intervals within the same event. I´m usin IFS Cloud. Its described in a answer 3 years ago;  “When you enter the event data into your PMs you just enter as follows.PM ‘X’ - Event = <event name> , Start = 1, Interval = 1 PM ‘Y’ Event = <event name> , Start = 1, Interval = 3Now when running your event generation for event <event name> you will get PM ’X’ generated each time and PM ‘Y’ every third time.” kind regards Emma

Hello,In Work Order Planning (Gant) form there is identification line for Work Order “Earliest Start” and “Latest Finish”: the green line:I can move the “Latest Finish” manually:But “Latest Start” is not possible to move manually. Why?Thank you beforehand for any explanation:)

 Hello experts!  Anyone has a  good idea around this query?                                                                                 In service contracts where a non-inventory sales part is defined, can we do a standard increase of price  for same parts in all active contracts % wise or amount wise( for same part in all active contracts in one go)? on this same part is in service contracts but in different prices. Customer agreement won’t work as different its different customers. Price list not applicable as each service contract has a different price for same part , so we cannot maintain same sales part with different prices to increase. 

It seems both apps gets updated and the functionality seems to be quite identical. What is the exact difference between the 2 apps? 

Hi All, We are getting an error saying “Object ID is invalid” when we try to enter an measurement to object. What can be the reason behind this?  TIA.

I loaded 400 measurements against the object and has below setup in system but in Performance Details page, I do not see any information    What could be the reason for the above?

When working with a detached spare part list that has a multilevel hierarchy, we observed the following behavior: The Level 1 part in the detached spare part list has two connected child parts (Level 2). When retrieving the detached spare part list from the Maintenance Material Requisition (MMR), it is not possible to directly navigate or view the Level 2 parts from the hierarchy. To access Level 2 parts, we need to manually add the corresponding Level 1 part in the MMR, then re-query and add spare parts from the detached spare part list. Only then do the Level 2 parts appear. This process results in multiple iterations when dealing with hierarchical spare part structures. Additionally, once the Level 2 parts are retrieved, the previous level label does not provide contextual information about the parent part. We’re trying to understand whether this is: A system limitation by design in handling multilevel hierarchies within detached spare part lists; or A potential enhancement

 Hello Experts,Please suggest if there is a mechanism, trying to avoid doing a CRIM here.When WO created from service contract/ PM action with a resource defined with an assigned person in contract with relevant hours required,Can same person be assigned in WT/assign work allocation? (can it be automated to fetch from PM action as its already added there?), now it flows to work demands but no allocation is made thought data is existing.Can we automate creating allocation link without a crim, just want to see the best options available?Reason because 900> WO exist initially to manually assign.When WO is created, go to allocations, demand shows but not allocated, can we apply it automatically? 

Can work Order Planning gantt in IFS Cloud 24R1 be enriched with custom fields?I have a requirement where work order planners need to plan and schedule work orders based on Equipment Object groups. Object group is not visible in the gantt view, so my intention was to add it as a custom field with page designer. However there is no list of attributes in the page designer. 

We are trying to delete an inventory part because it was entered incorrectly and are getting the following error message.  

IFS Cloud 25R1, IFS MwO Maintenance 25.3.1443.0Serial Parts added onto a material line and Reserved on a Work Task.The Work Task is assigned to a Resource and Trasferred to mobile.I am unable to issue the reserved material in the work task using MwO. When I try to Issue the materials for the Work Task on MWO, I get the following message : Part Reservation is not available to Issue. Use Planned Material to issue the part instead. On the Technician Portal , I am able to issue the reserved materials on the the work task. Has anyone faced this issue before ? 

Hi, In the Resource Monitoring Gantt, the assigned tasks displays the Work Task no. and the Task Description. E.g.   Is it possible to show the Actual Object instead of the Task Description without the need to modify the system? The Actual Object and further fields are displayed when the mouse hovers over the bar. Thanks in advance!

Hello,In MWO I set Work Task to Incomplete, filled incompletion reason and hours that are left till completion. Where to find that incompletion information that was filled on work task? I do not see it in MWO Work Task and also do not see in IFS Cloud application:Where I can find incompletion information for work task?

Hello, Please help me with assistance in MWO to create additional work task for the work order.I tried to create via “New Work”, but it creates Work Order with status Fault Report:I tried to create via “Additional Work” and it creates work task that I cannot found in the system and WO and Work Task numbers are very strange:I cannot find such Work Tasks in IFS Cloud application with such Mobile Task ID:Thank you beforehand:)

Hello,I created additional work i MWO:I see it created in MWO with strange number:Where I can find this created additional work in the system? I do not see it no in Prepare Work Order form no in Work Task form.Thank you for help:)

Hi All,I would like to understand what capabilities we have, if any, with regard to planning Isolation Orders in conjunction with Work Orders.The background for the question is that for any larger work, it is to be expected that also isolation orders need to be planned with resources, materials etc, and are likely to be carried out by the same people as the actual work orders. This would mean that it would be required to handle these two order types in the same way.The work on isolation orders will also generate transactions, that potentially are billable, should be accounted etc Thanks & Best Regards,Nipun

Has anyone here gone through the process of properly sizing the hardware requirements for deploying the IFS EAM solution?I’m currently working with a client that operates a single cargo ship and will have around 20 concurrent users accessing the system. I’m looking for guidance or best practices on how to specify the right server resources (CPU, memory, and especially storage capacity) for this type of setup.Any references, calculation guidelines, or examples from similar implementations would be greatly appreciated.

Connected objects is a functionality designed for identifying things that need to be isolated before work in the IFS EAM module.  See screen shot This is very useful, but for some reason, I can’t find the connections in the technician portal or on mobile work order.  Am I missing something?  Is there something that needs set up?   We’re on a big utilities project and need the techs to have visibility to this field.Thanks,Jerry 

Hello,I am using IFS MWM Office Version: 8.0.0.485 and would like to know where I can get access to the Solution Manager or Configuration or Administrative Tools. Any help would be appreciated ThanksLorry

Dear All,When material is issued from MWo Maintenance as part of remote warehouse (Van Stock), MMR (Maintenance Material Requisition)will be created in IFS Cloud through sync process. Is there a way to identify that MMR is created through MWo. I checked if there is any column in the view or table but could not find any column which distinguishes between IFS Cloud and MWo MMRs.IFS Cloud Version: 24R2Thanks for your time and thanks in advance for your responses.Regards,Srinivas

Hi,I have seen some posts here mentioning APM functionality in IFS. Is this a new component in IFS Cloud? Are there any docs, ppt etc describing the functionality?B RAnders

Hello community,Our client upgraded to 25R1 recently, and since then, for “lot tracking” part, an asteric “*” is filled by default in Register Arrival > Receive with Serial/Lots. Therefore there is no “flag” to fill up that number.Previously in 24R2, whenever the assistant Receive with Serial/Lots was opened, the field Lot/Batch No turned empty, which was forcing the user to enter the Lot No. It lead to the following misleading behavior:In case of “Receive to stock”, we get an error message after validating the reception confirmation pop-up (Your part will be received ...) : “a lot number must be entered for this part”. Obviously, since the Lot Batch No is  “*”.However in case of “Receive into QA”, there’s no warning, and parts gets moved to QA location without Lot Batch No. Warning only comes after inspection, at the move to stock stage, which is late.Is this a product behaviour since 25R1 ? or a bug ?Thank you very much for your kind help! Anita
