Finite Scheduling in IFS Cloud version

In the IFS Cloud version, is it possible to set Workcenters and other resources to Finite schedule as we could do in the previous versions to get Shop Orders to schedule based on constraints?  If not, is there a plan to use PSO or something else to get to that point?I know there is sequencing in APB, but was looking for a way to automatically slot/schedule the orders.Best Regards,Jeff Mazer

IFS FIFO picking setup

Hello, I have been looking for help on the FIFO picking in IFS (for Customer Orders and Shop Orders). I am looking to confirm that when IFS generates a picklist, that it is directly the associate to the oldest stocking record so that we are using our oldest material and shipping our oldest product. Is there a way to verify this is properly configured in IFS Apps 10? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Not enough material when receiving

When receiving on the workbench IFS gives the rather generic error “not enough material has been issued”  What is the easiest way  for shop floor user to specifically identify which material is the problem?

Control Plan data points responsibility divided into several parties

Hi,What is the best way to handle the below scenario in setting up Manufacturing Control Plan? I have several Data points to check. But the responsibility is divided into Operator, QC and QC lab. Some data points checked by all parties but some by one party. Since we can have only one control plan, I have to register all the Data points under one Control plan and once the Analysis Result generate all the Data points comes in the Analysis Result. So the all data points in the Analysis Result are not relevant for a specific party.  Is there a better way to setup this scenario?

Copying IFS Spare Parts from PDM?

Hi IFS Community,I have a question about functionality so-called Spare Parts, in Engineering Part Revision (TAB).Engineering\PDM\Engineering Part\Engineering Part RevisionQ: Our customer's question is what this tab is for or better - whether it has an connection into some other/next processes, specifically into the service/maintenance, where Spare parts can be defined at the level of Serial objects (also TAB)?An official help (F1) mentions the following: "The spare part list can be copied to the modules IFS/Project Delivery and IFS Maintenance.”Q: What exactly is the possibility to use the filled TAB from PDM in other processes?Thank you in advance for any information regarding this,David

Prototype Shop Order is sellable

In IFS Cloud I am able to create a Prototype Shop Order, produce a serialized part, receive it into inventory and reserve it on a Customer Order. Is it normal? I don’t think it is correct that a prorotype could be sold, furthermore with the same price of a normal item.Could anyone explain me if there is any setting to prevent this scenario?Thanks a lotStefano

APB and Labor class

Hi, We would like to start using our employees/labor classes as a Finite resource. Now, only the work centers are finite.Is it correct, like with the work centers, we just need to put the labor class on finite capacity and connect the calanders/ calculate capacity? How does APB behave if you don’t have anough capacity on your labor class? Let say you need 2 employees, but you only have one. Can you than say ‘it will take double as long’ or does he just say ‘not possible’?Thanks!

IFS 10 - Multi Sites Pros and Cons

Hello, We acquired a company and are in the process of merging them with our IFS Apps. 10 environment. (FYI>The acquired company is also operating on IFS Apps. 10, too.) The company does have a couple satellite offices and a warehouse which performs all aspects of receiving, shipping, customer order fulfillment and shop order assembly work.  We are leaning towards setting up a 2nd Site for this company. Has anyone prepared a Pros vs. Cons analysis when evaluating the setup of Multi-Sites within your IFS environment?Thanks,Rick Messina

WIP issue during month end

We are currently facing an issue where our WIP is being driven to a negative balance that appears to be driven by partially completed shop orders. As customer demand fluctuates, our production planning schedules are adjusted based on the priority of the newer orders/jobs received. Orders currently in process may be paused to start the newer, higher priority orders. Because of this, we have many shop orders which are processed partially, have operations reported partially and have shop order receipts received partially into finished goods. At any given time, there are a large number of shop orders found in partially completed status.The partially completed shop orders are receiving the full cost of material and labor into finished goods instead of a proportionate amount of material and labor. As a result, it appears that more cost is being taken out of WIP than has been added to it. For example,A 500 piece shop order is partially completed with 300 pieces. Expecting only the following t

Purchase Order - Document Name

Hi All,I have successfully managed to replace the IFS Purchase Order report with our own Crystal Report, all works fine.  When you email the purchase order the pdf is attached to an email example : Purchase_Order_18042.pdfthe number in the document name (i.e. 18042) relates to the unique RESULT_KEY field (from PURCH_INFO_SERVICES_RPV)   generated each time you request a Purchase Order print.Is it possible to change the document name so it includes the Purchase Order number and not the Result Key.Thanks.

Transfer inventory part unit cost to costing

Hello!Is there a way to transfer Inventory part unit cost, which IFS automatically updates, directly to under costing, for example to cost set one? What we would like to do is update our Sales part base prices from costing that way that we could use unit cost value which IFS calculates when receiving purchase parts. So that Inventory part unit cost could be transferred to one of the cost sets under costing and from there it could be transferred to sales part base price. Thanks for all answers!-Eetu

Update the shop cost - Standard Cost

Hi, We are using manufacturing modules with configured parts. The setup for the inventory parts : Weighted average for the purchased parts Standard cost, per configuration for manufactured partsAt the creation of the shop order, the standard cost is calculated using the structure information.I have a question regarding the standard cost update :We may have a time lap between the shop order creation and the shop order process. So if the components parts costs are updated (eg.: variance of the purchased price) I would like to update the standard cost and include the component parts costs, into the inventory value.I have already setup a migration job, to update the shop order costs. But this migration job, doesn’t update the standard cost.Do you have any inputs regarding the automatic update the shop order standard cost, through the shop order cycle ?Thanks, Tarek
