Unit Cost updated from esimated shop order cost

Hi All, When using the inventory cost setting; Standard Cost, Cost per Part, Zero Cost ForbiddenIn previous releases of IFS, you was forced to calculate cost and copy to cost set one, before receipt of the part as inventory value zero was not allowed. The calculation of cost and set standard cost is a fundamental concept for many companies. We are now running IFS Cloud 23R2 and notice that you are not forced to calculate and set standard cost anymore, is that a new parameter implemented to get old logic to be used?I have read release notes from App 10 and later but haven’t found anything related to this issue. To set Unit Cost based on estimated shop order cost when first received is not accepted by all controlers.

MRP Make entries for phantoms

Will there always be MRP make entries in MRP Part Information and Inventory Part Availability Planning for phantom parts? I guess they are needed for the correct explosion of demands to the next level, but users think it is confusing since they will not create any shop order requisitions.

Costing Parameter - Help documentation is not complete

I just created a new site in our IFS 10 environment.When checking the basic data in costing, I found, that UPD 21 has several new Costing parameters . Unforturneately, IFS documentation Define Cost Parameters https://server/documentation/en/Costing/ActivityDefineCostParameters.htm only describes some of the parameters.I had a look in the latest doc of 24R2 (https://docs.ifs.com/ifsclouddocs/24r2/Costing/ActivityDefineCostParameters.htm which is lacking a description of most of the parameters as well.These are new parameters in IFS 10, or in some of IFS 10 Updates.Parameter CodeCAPTURE_COST_SOURCESCOPY_APPROVED_PARTSCOPY_SUBCONTRACT_COSTSCOPY_SUPP_DELOHCOPY_WC_LC_COSTSINCLUDE_COMPONENTSINCLUDE_CONFIGURABLEINCREMENTAL_COPYUPD_INV_EST_MTRL_COST Can anybody provide a complete explanation about the system effects of every parameter available, not only the description what is in the application.

Shop Order Lot Size Change Error

Hello,I can’t change some of shop orders size. When I want to change it or increase it, it says “The shop order estimate cost of the manufactured part will be negative. This is not allowed. Check By-Product setup.”How can I change the lot size of shop order?

Shop Order Receipt Error

Currently, we are encountering a hard stop error at shop order receipt whenever we attempt to consume a subassembly part that is associated with an open MRB into the parent shop order. The error message reads: "Component part serial 'part number/' exists in an open MRB case; receipt cannot be processed." While we are able to issue the component to the shop order, we are unable to complete the shop order receipt due to this issue.For context, the MRB pertains to a limited subset of impacted parts, not all parts of that part number. Additionally, these parts are both serial and lot-tracked, but it seems the MRB screen does not support the use of unique identifiers so it’s grouping all inventory tied to that part number. We’re currently on Apps 10 Update 20 in the IEE Client.I’m interested in learning how other members of the community are managing MRBs (Material Review Boards) for subassemblies. Any insights or best practices on how to handle this situation would be greatly appreciated.

Create a custom menu on Transport task line to display the part number barcode as in Inventory part in stock

Hello IFS family, As we have a standard functionality in ‘Inventory part in stock’ screen to print barcode we want to have the same functionality on Transport task line, first of all is that feasible? I tried creating a custom menu for the same and stuck here, as in the process to trigger a barcode from a data line when we click on the custom menu a new barcode Id needs to be generated and stored in the ‘inventory_part_barcode_rep’ view as it works for the existing functionality. But I checked and this - ‘inventory_part_barcode_rep’ is in read-only state as seen below, so how do I add the data for triggering the data. Please suggest a way out of this or maybe a total new approach to meet the requirement. Thanks !!

Estimated Material Cost Value

Hello, We are looking to improve manufacturing cost estimates and cost reporting through IFS. We primarily design and fabricate custom systems with job-unique BOMs. We are not using DOP at the moment, but have it on the radar in the future. On the shop order costs page, we can see estimated and actual material, labor, machine, etc. costs. Until items are issued or operations are reported, the actual cost is $0. Thus, the estimated cost can be useful. An issue with the estimated cost is that it is $0.00 for new items that don’t have a history in the system. Even once these new items are received into inventory and there is an inventory unit cost, the estimated material cost field on the Inventory Part Unit Cost page still shows $0. Thus, other than our interconnecting piping, fittings, etc. that are used on every job, our estimated cost is completely missing. We can add a CRIM to update the estimated material cost field after material receipt, but it seems that this field gets filled in

Outside work center

Hello,I need help to correctly set the deadlines in subcontracting, I was in V9 we had this problem and I do not see any improvement on the 23r1. I created an external load item and attached a calendar to it, telling it 1 day = 60mm so that I could talk in days but not in hours for subcontracting. I don't know if there's a simpler way of setting this up.The problem with what I'm doing is that when the subcontracting operation is in progress, if I recalibrate my production order, it doesn't recalibrate the external operation dates correctly. Translated with DeepL.com (free version) as long as the external operation is in Released status, the recalibration takes the 10-day delay into accountRemaining Machine Time is set to 10I have sent my production order to subcontractors and my operation has been placed in work-in-progress.the Remaining Machine Time field is set to 0 and this poses a problem because if I reset it takes this data and as there is 0 it does not correctly reset my phase.

SO Material rows pasted - cannot be manually issued

Not entirely sure what our expectations should be here… We have a user who has copied/pasted material rows from Shop Order A onto Shop Order B. Parts are in stock on the relevant site; Supply type on Shop Order B showing as Invent Order. User then attempts to directly Issue material to the rows newly pasted onto Shop Order B (select row/Manual Issue). Manual Issue Shop Order Material screen comes up blank. If the parts are entered onto Shop Order B by a new line being created, Manual Issue Shop Order Material comes up with stock available to be issued as expected. If we run the ‘Redefine Supply Code’ and change to Project Inventory and then run the ‘Redefine Supply Code’ again and change back to Invent then the Manual Issue… screen is populated correctly. Has anyone else experienced this at all?Thanks!

Earned value cost is difference depending on Structure Depth of DOP.

Following question was raised to the IFS Support.The amount of the Purchase Order is 420,000. Progress is calculated to be 25%. However, the DOP amount is 420,000. This is 28.57% progress. Although the amounts are the same, the progress is different. The document says that progress is calculated from the amount of the object.Why do we get different progress rates even though the object amounts are the same?The monitoring amounts are different because of the different progress rates.This is what we initially inquired about. Why are the monitoring amounts different? Following answer was provided by IFS Support for 3 different scenarios.In "AC1" (Pattern A) the PO is an object that is directly affecting activity progress because it has come from PMRP, and since you have received it 100% progress is reflected for that, and that's an overall weight of 25% of the planned cost for the activity.In "AC2" (Pattern C), the Misc Demand is handled through the DOP alone so the progress of the DOP su

Defining a default team in shop floor employees by site but doesn't affect SFWB team clocking

There are ways to define an employee’s default team in Shop Floor Employees by Site. However, I have found that when you log in to Shop Floor Workbench by that team, you still MUST add people to that team BEFORE you can do any team transactions. Has anyone encountered this anomaly before? Has anyone developed a CRIM to transfer the employees listed as team members in Shop Floor Employees by Site to the employees on the team logged in to Shop Floor WorkBench?

Last count date: location based vs lot batch based

We noticed that last count dates remain with the location after we have moved a lot batch from it. Our cycle counting criteria is to have the count history/tracking tied to lot batches. My question is, is Last Count Date a functionality of location counting only or can we somehow configure IFS to tie or link a count date to lot batch and have that count date follow or trail the lot batch as it is being transacted from location to location.

Product Structure - Data Mapping error

Hello,When we navigate in a product structure (TDC5961 for example), a data mapping error due to type mismatch occurs.The components don’t go back. What is strange is that all the lower TDC orders are indeed present but do not "retranscribe" as components. The error does not come from the product structure either, which is in "Constructible" status and the components are also associated with it. I looked on Community and they refer to support tickets. In addition, the error is random, sometimes it happens on TDCs taken over and other times on new TDCs created. Same on the levels, sometimes the upper level is devoid of components but at the lower level they are there. 🙁 We had compared the IFS 7.5 and Cloud tables and no change. Everything is taken over identically both with those in error and those without errors.The error messages are the following :{"@odata.context":"https://url_prod/main/ifsapplications/projection/v1/DopHeaderHandling.svc/$metadata#DopOrderSet(DopId=%273%27,DopOrde

Prevent shop order / Inventory from shipping

We have shop orders in process that will be completed but cannot ship until quality approves shipping. Inventory is lot tracked. We cannot put availability control on the lot because the shop order is still in process. What is the best practice to prevent a shop order from shipping when it is completed? Can availability control be setup ahead of time so that when the shop order is received into inventory, there is a control on it? Regards,Eric
