Part Types

Hi IFS Community In our business we use a variety of different Part Types in IFS APP10 (Master Part, Sales Part, Purchase Part, Inventory Part & Engineering Part), for example, if you were to look at a Finished Goods part it has a record in all five part types. We have sales parts to allow us to sell goods to customers, Inventory parts for production and storage of raw materials and purchase parts to buy the raw materials from suppliers.  I suppose my question is do we need to have all these different part types, are they all linked, do you have to start with a master part and it replicates all the way down through the other part types? if they are linked is there a document or work instruction/flow to show how everything is linked together?   Only been using app10 for 1 year and trying to get my head round the system set up. Any help would be appreciated.

CRO: Repair order and forwarding agent selected

Hello, everyone, is it possible to create a Receive Order in CRO or a Purchase Order with the selection of the forwarder (FedEx, UPs)? For a potential customer there is a need to create a stand-alone part repair flow. A customer opens a repair request and our potential client needs to select a forwarder to receive the part and proceed with the repair and then send the part back to the customer. Is there anyone who can help me? Could anyone point me to a possible solution to manage this flow?

Person Calendar Exceptions - Assigning tasks with long durations

Hello,when I try to assign a task with a long duration (more than 1 day) on the Schedule Board, I get the following error:“The technician has person calendar exceptions that prevent the delegation of this task.”This is because although I'm trying to assign the task to a day when the technician is available for work, as the task covers the next day when the technician has a calendar exception, the aforementioned error already occurs.Are there any parameters/configurations that can be changed in order to assign tasks to this scenario?Thanks!

Automatic Generation of PM WO through Calendar Generation

Hi IFS Guru,I have a scenario where I need to create Automatic Generation of PM WO through Calendar but for specific Object IDs, as our plant is in commissioning stage, we have created PM actions for all the equipment but in preliminary status, some of equipment handed over to Operations and PM Action is in active status, now we need to implement Auto Generation (Avoid going manually to each PM action and click Generate WO) system should be able to create PM WOs (as a background) based on interval for specific Object IDS (that is very important). System should not generate PM WO for all the Object ID even if it is in Active Status. We are using IFS Cloud Web version: 22.2.8.20230509084539.0.Appreciate your help on this matter. Shehzad

Can you call a Security Checkpoint in a Workflow?

Dear all,In applications 9, we had a custom menu (PLSQL) that populated some custom fields using PLSQL. Prior to the modify API being called, we could call this API to force the Checkpoint prompt.  Security_Sys.Security_Checkpoint('CHECKPOINT_ID', msg_);Now we are moving to cloud, I have been able to recreate the updating of the custom fields with a BPA Workflow, but I dont know how to call the security checkpoint to activate it.  Does anyone know if this is possible and if so, how to do it? Many thanks,David.

Lookup Screen Child Relationships

Hi All,I’ve been struggling to setup a working child relationship on the CONTRPRODCOVLOOKUP screen (FSM 6.5 Smart Client).  I’m wondering if there is some type of limitation to handle relationships on lookup type screens?We have a field I want to display gos_contract.ext.is_paid.  I can add the field to the screen, but it never shows a value regardless of what is set in the database.  Maybe I’m just overlooking something.Any suggestions?Thanks! Child Relationship on contract selections screen. gos_contract_ext Custom Metadata

Miscellaneous resource allocation in MWO

Hi,This is a question regarding the UI of the application. The miscellaneous resource allocations can be access from the mwo Navigator. It is not displayed as a tile. Is there a reason for this action to only be available in the mwo navigator. If Customer is using this functionality frequently, it is good to have it as a tile in the dashboard. Is there a way to display it as a tile? Thanks !

Why do i get a "resource not found" message after executing a MCPR workflow?

Hi allContext We created a workflow in context of MCPR. We attempt to trigger the event when an employee gets linked to a Customer Company for MCPR. The underlining should afterwards  update to the adjusted CompanyId, EmpNo & EmpCatName The workflow exists of the following parts:1 READ to get the empcategory from the original employee 1 script taskt to (store it as a variable)1 READ to read the employee you want to change(1 script task for etag compatibility) 1 PATCH to update the employee with the category  ISSUE: When filling the time registration of the MCPR linked employee, we receive the error “resource not found”. We started troubleshooting to see if the error comes from the workflow itself. On first look, that was not the issue. On second look, when reading through the log window, we define a bpa automisation error as u can see on the log window below  How to fix this error?  Warm regards

Passing Parameters to Crystal Report in Aurena

We are looking to start the transition to Aurena however we are having issues with Crystal Reports,In EE we have custom right mouse buttons that open a Crystal Report and take a field from the page and input it into the report, e.g. when a user has a Shop Order on screen they can right click, select the custom right mouse button for Shop Order Summary and this will open the Shop Order Summary report and pass the Shop Order number from the page to the report,Is this possible in Aurena? I can create a Command Group to ExecuteQuickReport and select Crystal Report as the report type however I am unable to map parameters from the page to the report We are using IFS Apps 10 UPD 19 - If this is not available in IFS, is it planned to be released to IFS?
