Campaigns for Discounts

Good Morning, We are looking into using a Campaign to manage customer discounts. We have over 1000 customers and some of them get offered a 2% discount off our entire product range between certain dates of the year.We have set the campaign to a customer and applied the to and from dates along with the discount however it seems we have to list every item in a range in the Buy field? Is this a way around this so the discount will be put against the customer for the time frame against every customer order raised for them regardless of the sales part?

On an MTR How do we make a default pull value for part

When we do an MTR is there a way to set the UOM to 100 for a particular part number? Right now we have some items in packs of a 100 and if someone wants 99 we really need to just pull 100 regardless since they are small items in bulk packs? We can’t seem to find a place to do this, anyone? We are currently in Apps 8 moving to 10 at some point. thank you!

Lobby Element Designer questions

Hi, I have 3 questions on Element Designer.   In the Element Designer, there is a Form Mapping section. I would like to know how to use it. I found an example in the Bar chart ‘Vacancies Progress’ which is mapped to ‘frmTabHeadCountPlan.  But in the Head Count form, I have not found anything related to this lobby element… In the Navigation section, I would like to have information on the ‘Use own process’ checkbox and its Process id. In a Bar chart, in the Data section, what exactly is the ‘Transpose data’ checkbox for ? Thanks   Michel

Using Siemens TeamCenter with IFS

We have a request for implementing an interface between TeamCenter, the PLM system of Siemens with IFS10. Do you have it up and running or have you looked at it. I don’t need full specs here, more a sense of how difficult it would be to prepare such an interface or that it can be bought from a partner or Siemens. Thanks in advance.

Copy Spare Parts option at Create New Eng. Rev.

When creating new Engineering Revisions, we need to copy the related spare parts in the same process. If not we will miss them as our structures are too complex. Example as follows. This is applicable for Copy Services also and there is no option to copy spare parts.Do we have any solid solution other than copy/paste objects.

Restricted Documents

Hi, I am very interested in how to control access to restricted documents in IFS, particularly ITAR. We are on IFS Version 10, UPD7 and use Active Directory Federation Services to connect users to their Active Directory accounts for login.  We have multiple companies and sites across a number of countries.   I am quite familiar with Document Access and Document Class Management using assigned person groups. However, the loophole is that a Document Control rep at one of our sites with access to Document Basic Data can inadvertently add a unauthorized person to a person group that is assigned to a restricted Document Class. I am also interested in the best approach in terms of the Doc Vault. We presently use Shared Files. Storing document files in the database is not feasible given the impact to system performance with the volume of documents in use across all of our sites. We are at the point of removing the restricted documents completely, storing the files in site specific file server

Operation Block Sequencing Logic

When scheduling a block of shop order operations in sequence, what logic is used to determine the sequence in which the operations are scheduled? Is the final sequence based on prioritization by Order Need Date, Operation Finish Date, Remaining Resource Hours, something else?

Project Pick List

Hi, Just wondering if anyone knows of a way to generate a Project pick list - this would specifically cover items on the “Demand” tab of a Project activity. I’m hoping there’s something core in the application that work’s similar to the Report Picking of Shop Order Picklist functionality but struggling to find anything obvious in the application.Thanks,Andy

Mixed UoM's on Recipe Structure

Currently all of our raw material and finished parts use gallons as their UoM.  However given a change in our process, we have a need to reflect some of our raw materials as pounds or gallons, depending on the finished product.  We would like to create an alternate recipe that would be used to reflect pounds on the shop order by multiplying the finished product lot size on a shop order x the Qty per Assembly x the density factor on the inventory part.  Does anyone know if this is possible and if so, what settings on the recipe alternate are relevant and what value should we choose.

Issue operation material with simplified material check on shop order

Hi all,When we issue material to a shop order, we always use “simplified material check”. The problem is that if we have not issued more material than the required qty, we cannot approve the operation: The system will try to backflush the remaining qty and the Simplified Material Checkbox is disabled.How do we solve this?

Perform ABC, Frequency and Lifecycle Classification

I ran Perform ABC, Frequency and Lifecycle Classification for the first time in a test environment.  We have been on IFS for 15 months.  A majority of our items changed to C even though Inventory Basic Data is set to I aggregate inventory every month.  Is there anything else I need to do before running Perform ABC, Frequency and Lifecycle Classification?  Do I need to close Statistics Periods?  Is there any way to print the logic that was used in calculating the new ABC code?  This is our first time doing this and I’d like to this information for documentation purposes and for audit purposes.

Inventory Part Structure Defaults

Hello, I am attempting to set specific defaults for Reserve/Issue Method and Issue Overreported Qty on the Inventory Part Manufacturing tab. I have not found a Basic Data or setting that would allow me to specify these settings when adding a new Inventory Part.Essentially i would like the Reserve/Issue Method to default to “Backflush” and the Issue Overreported Qty to be checked by default. I’m not sure if this is possible or not. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
