Hi.

Why IFS delete the cost set 1 from the Work Center if you are copying an inventory part cost from, for example, from cost set 2 to 1 and one the work centers do not have the cost set 2?

 

I tested this case in  IFS 9, IFS 10 and Cloud. I think this is a BUG because the Cost Set 1 is the unique mandatory cost set.

 

I tested this case in  IFS 9, IFS 10 and Cloud.

Hi,

I suggest that you log this with IFS support so that it can be investigated.

Is there any reason why you can’t just add Cost Set 12 against the Work Center (with a zero value)?

The functionality should then work as expected.

Alternatively, as a workaround, you can untick the ‘Copy Work Center and Labor Class Costs’ check box when you copy to Cost Set 1.

I hope that this helps.

WC without Cost Set 12.

 

I copy the cost set 12 to Cost set 1 for the inventory part 79-TEST1.

 

IFS has removed the Cost Set 1 in the WC

For the moment, I will talk with my customer to untick the checkbox “Copy Work Center and Labor Class Costs” and at the same time I will try to raise a case at IFS Support.

Thank you.
