Have any other users of the system been able to find a work around with Gantt dependencies when using the scheduler? Our PMs are getting frustrated because they spend time linking dependencies together and then the only way the schedule button on the Gantt view aligns and considers those dates is to just push everything back to the earliest start date of the entire project. It’s not workable for them, just wondering if any other customers have a smart work around.

Hi, We are global company, and start using APP10 to set up multiple company reporting. We need knowledge on this. we have bunches of engineers from Canada are working on a Belgium project. They are trying to use the Belgium report code to do the time reporting, but not be able to. We know that could be resolved by MCPR setup,  your step-by-step documentation is very much appreciated. Thank you.

One of our MRO customers are having an issue where, when you manually add a blow through part (Type K) in an ASO material line and then include a random part to the same work scope from the Disposition Summary Screen; after the releasing of the Interim order structure, the manually added blow through part gets removed.Kindly explain why this is happening as I believe think this an incorrect behavior.

An MRO customer of ours is requesting for solution for the following scenario:Customer is having a part which is always replaced every time in the parts of the unit that composes the received repair product. There are multiple number of these replacements parts under each unit, and the customer doesn't want to issue a Disposition Shop Order because they are getting replaced every time. But he wants it to be able to be connected to ASO material tab as well. How can we handle this on the system?

Hi all, On IFS10 - UPD9 In EE - you can simply drag and drop screens to a different place in the navigator.How to do this in Aurena?For example, instead of having to open 4 menu’s, (Human Capital Management / My Self-Service / My Expenses / New Expense Sheet) I would like that New Expense Sheet becomes available directly under Human Capital Management.  

Hi,Is it possible to set certain defaults for a user.We would like certain order types to be set as a default depending on the User.

Hi community, Do any of you know how we could handle the repair of purchased raw parts. Those are parts that have no structure. Example : We want to repair Off the shelf part 12345 in house without sending back parts to supplier. We would need a repair shop order to book time and possibly add components.Thanks!

Hi,The customer is using Apps10 (EE)Does somebody know how the load source (in the work center) influate the result of the RRP calculation  : In addition, another related question : the customer want to use the same work center for RRP and CRP (that is possible with IFS). After calculation of RRP and CRP, they would like to see the load coming from the master scheduling and the load coming from the order proposals / shop orders on the same screen. Is there any way to do this ?Thanks for your answers.Regards.Nicolas

Hi all, We are working with IFS10, UPD9 setting up IFS Aurena and have run into two issues in regards to Contexts. A: Assigning context: For us, using Usergroup would be the best to use, but it’s not working due to a known Bug. But did anyone found out where to define “LEDGER” on an User? B: Default field:On My New Expense Sheet, we have made the Purpose mandatory. However, you can still create the Expense Sheet without the mandatory field being filled.Is this a bug, or is this a “bad design” and we will need to add some development to stop this from being possible?

The Task completion checkbox must be unchecked or Progress set to 0% before the Activity can be set to Canceled. The Task will then be deleted and there are no track on actually performed tasks on the canceled activity.The core functionality of deleting tasks is more suitable for Deleting a Project Activity than cancel of an activity when looking at an option to cancel a started activity. Test Scenarios:1. Create a project activity, set to status approved2. add a task with checkbox Completed set on the activity3. add a task with a progress between 0% and 100% on the activity4. Change status on the activity to Canceled (RMB/Status from the activity head)5. Verify, not possible to cancel activity due to task progress >0%-> Need to change task progress to 0% before Activity can be canceled and then all tasks are deleted -> No track on already performed work. Should It be possible to cancel an activity

Hey, long shot. Can anyone point me in the direction in Apps8 where I can find how IFS is pulling pricing for a byproduct? We have a by product with the same base and the byproduct has come out with a much lower price than it should be.  Where can I find where this is pulling from and/or why is it different?   thank you!
