Community,
We would like to implement a new form(see attached) in manufacturing and I was wondering if IFS had any modules already built in that accommodates:
It isn’t a separate module, but rather a separate field against the inventory part in stock record. It is called W/D/R, or Waiver/Deviation/Rejection number. It is a user assigned separate identity that makes the individual inventory part unique from that point forward so that it must be transacted as both the part number and the W/D/R number.
It is part of the process model under Handle Availability Control for Part in the help
Since you already have the approval form, you would just need to provide some sort of coding or identifier for the part that relates to the approval form.
regarding the form, shall we use document management to have it flow in IFS system or you have other great ideas?
Thank you.
Document Management is one possibility with the document Revision or similar number added as the W/D/R number.
Our version is designed with the MRB Case as the origination point for documenting the Waiver - we don’t use a separate form. Then we use the MRB Case ID as the W/D/R number.
In either case, the number being assigned becomes unique to the situation and essentially auto-generated by IFS, thus removing the need for user interaction or a separate log.
No, not the approval steps, just the MRB Case ID itself is used. The case would be a 1-to-1 relationship with the item that requires the waiver.
