Product Structure Parts Utilization

There are  parts which have repair, assembly product structures to either repair or assemble. but sometimes it is only 60%-80% parts are required to do the repair or assembly. Is there any way to that it can be fed to the IFS 10 Application as a factor so that it will be considered when replenishment.  Is there a way in IFS to help order items that are not used 100% of the time?

Component Repair Quoting

 Before creating component repair orders sometimes , it is required to create quotes and follow the quotation process. These each component has it own standard product structure and the sale prices are all fixed and any over/above parts also have pricing. Can we do this in IFS App10?what is the most convenient way to perform repair order quoting?

(Manufacturing) Labor class

Hello together,I just tried some things in the routing. I want to setup the costs for the setup time and the machine time, but for both fields “Setup Labor Class” and “Labor Class” lead both to “Manufacturing Labor Class”. How can I setup the setup costs and the mascvhine costs independently?Thank you.Regards Markus

shop order shortages for assemblies

Hi,Is there a way to check shop order shortages for multiple levels deep within its BOM? The Shop Order Material Availibility is close but it only checks the immediate BOM level below. What I would like to see is it pick up a shortage say from a purchased part that feeds into a sub-assembly and that sub-assembly feeds into top level assembly which is the shop order. Thanks in advance!

Closing complex assembly work orders

Hi team, We have an MRO who receives the engine for repair and, while disassembling it, sometimes determines that engine is beyond economical repair and, therefore, will strip the items to stock.  This will require labor, tools, and the costs involved in disassembly/disposition operations. CRO was created for those items and performed repairs if parts could be repaired. The output of this is that we end up with 10 to 20 parts in stock that are in a serviceable condition that equals the value of the labor, parts, and capital. When performing stripping down the engine and sending items to stock, the assembly side of the Complex assembly MRO work order does not need to be completed. (Only disassembly SO are closing) Can we do this in IFS App10 so we can close CAMRO without completing the assembly section of a work order?What is the most convenient way to perform this strip down to stock using complex assembly work orders? Thank you!

Labour per Hour per Production Line

Hi, Once we have scheduled the work centres we would also like to be able to say the labour required per production line/workcentre based on the routing crew count.  Is there a way to get a summary overview from APB/IFS that shows this type of detail? Thanks

Part Characteristics VS Technical Classes

We are planning to use part characteristics or technical classes and attributes to make it easier for users to find parts or products. Initially we thought it is the same thing and hoped that after technical attributes are defined that they would also be shown in the inventory part as well. This is not the case.What is the system logic to separate part characteristics or technical attributes? Which of these two functionalities are suitable to be used in what cases?

How to create a control plan which is triggered by 'start shop order ' and manual combined

In BGB, we are testing the manufacturing control plan for shop order operation testing. We would like to cover the 3 testing scenarios, by default, system offers standard feature to for collect data per shop order operation for settled sample quantity. That is fine and will be ok for basic full testing scenarios. But it cannot cover the random testing requirements. For instance, there are 4 shop orders produced in one line production line within 1 day. The random testing requirement is not based on shop order, but based on production line. So in that case, we would like to manual trigger one of shop order to collect variable data. Hereby, the question is how to setup those random control line that is triggered by manual according to business requirement? Our expectation is like:data point 1/2/3/5 is triggered by starting shop order based on inspection code sample quantity, which will cover full testing scenario. Data point 4 is triggered by manual, which will cover random testing scena

Shop order operation's labor class is different from the workbench user's labor class

In shop floor reporting,  shop order operation's labor class is different from the workbench user's labor class. Is there any setting in the application to choose which labor class is to be used for costing?

Consignment Inventory

Anytime our inventory numbers are off or sales support consumes something they shouldn’t have, we have to jump through hoops to invoice block the lines, or invoice the inventory and do a credit, then fake ship inventory to repopulate consignment stock.Is there a way to “un-consume” consignment stock or another way to handle consignment stock/transactions?Thank you in advance.

Reesource share per part

Hello together, I just dealt with the “rescource share per part” in the routing and asked myself, how the calculation works there. The help says the following:“When 0,1 is insert, and the lot size is 5, it means that the operation will take 50% of its resouce capacity during operation.”I can not really see how this calculation works. Can anybody explain me or draw one two examples? Thank you in advance! Regards Markus

Looking for a robust process to change a part from Serialized to Lot/Batch Tracking?

We are using Apps 10. We are following the guidance from a previous question in the community “Can a part that has been serialized be un-serialized later?”To start, we cycle counted out all the inventory that was in stock.We confirmed there is no stock in transit. When we toggled off Serial Tracking At Receipt and Issue we got error message “Receipt and Issue must be enabled if the part is serial tracked in inventory” So we started again and toggled off Serial Tracking In Inventory and got the error message “Condition code can be enabled only in combination with Inventory Serial Tracking and/or Lot/Batch Tracking”So we started again and togged off Miscellaneous Part Settings, Allow Condition Code and got the error message “Condition Code usage cannot be disabled if an inventory part exists”.  However, we don’t have any inventory on this part.

Standard list of Functional Areas for SOD Analyzer

Hi there,  We are about to start using the SOD Analyzer in IFS10 and preferable do not start from scratch. I therefore like to ask if anyone has a good list of (standard) functional areas, conflicts between those functional areas and the underlying methods? Any input is more than welcome so we do not have to reinvent the wheel. Thanks in advance for your support!

Build Structure for all Parts

Community, Wondering you have experience using “Build Structure for all Parts” this RMB function in Receive Shop Order window. see the screenshot attached. I have a parent part, and its components are all serial controlled. if the shop order lot size is more than 1, wondering how system control the parent - child relationship, how the as-build structure is built.for example, if lot size is 2, I reserved the parent part serial no S1, S2, meantime, I reserve the kids C1 and C2(assume we have only one kid and assembly qty is 1 also) serial no to the material line and issue to the material line.when doing shop order receipt, can I adjust the parent - kids relationship? for example, I can adjust S1 - C2, S2-C1 or S1-C1, S2-C2.Thank you.
