Engineering Part Navigator and new revisions

When creating a new engineering revision,  any text in the field Note is copied. We would like to find an empty Note field when a new revision is created, and keep text on previous revisions. Can this functionality be implemented in coming IFS Cloud updates?

Cost Estimator (Person) - Part Cost

Hello Community, With regards to Costing Basic Data, a Cost Estimator is a person responsible for the cost calculation of a product. Of course, in order to define cost estimators, they should be first defined as persons.In other words, when it comes to a Cost Estimator, it basically means that a company can decide whether or not there should only be one person that can create & mantain the cost calculation of a product, or is there anything else to be mentioned regarding Cost Estimators? Happy to receive any feedback.Thank you,A.

Park Shop Order if Failed Analysis Result

Hello, I am looking for a way to automatically park a Shop Order in the event a failed QA analysis is confirmed. I am hoping to drive this from an event action, but I am not sure what the scripting would be to configure the event to park the shop order with a park reason. We are currently using IFS Apps 10 UPD 15. Any guidance would be appreciated!

Phantom BOM data missing when using MRP-Code "K" in a DOP-ordre

Hi all, I work in a Danish machine company called GM and we have been using IFS for a little over a year now. We are currently working and testing the IFS Configurator, to be able to configurate our machines to make it easier for us and our customers. There have been done several tests and our issue right now, is when we make a DOP-order for a machine, the phantom BOM of the machines sub assemblies with the MRP-code “K” isn't visible in the production order. Meaning our production won´t be able to see where all the different parts belong to. We have tried some different things incl. adding a BOM that have a MRP-Code “K”  to the order, which came out as It should. - Also if the BOM is with a MRP-code “P” it will also come out correct, BUT we have run in to problem with the “P” MRP-code, so we don´t want to use that on. My questions is therefore, what can we do to fix the above issue? - we want to use the MRP-Code “K” and we want them to shown in the order when adding a DOP-order in our

Hello! We are using: IFS Cloud Web version: 22.2.10.20230705163153.0IFS OData provider version: 22.2.10.20230705114338.0 In a customized Pl/SQL Package we are using approval_routing_api.Notify_Group_Members and approval_routing_api.Notify_Users to generate notifications for specific steps in specific times. It is working fine having the module Inventory Part for example. and the Part_No is included in the email contents. The needed modification is to have the Part Description included as well. Is there any way to have such a customization without touching the IFS Standard Packages?Thank you in advance.

Supplier Material Reserve/Issue Only from Specified Locations

Not sure if anyone else has seen this issue. Using Cloud but behaviour is the same in Apps 9/10.I have a purchased part, with a buildable purchase product structure. I want to send the components to the supplier using supplier material.I am trying to get the system to only reserve the supplier material from a supplier’s location, not from a main warehouse stock location, as the part will be ordered and drop-shipped to the supplier. I want the application to raise a purch req if there’s no stock in the supplier’s location.But even though the inventory part is set to reserve & issue only from specified locations and the location is entered on the buildable purchase product structure for that component line, it still allows me to reserve the supplier material from the main warehouse stock location.The purchase product structure is buildable because I want MRP to plan the material, which will be issued to the supplier using supplier material on the purchase order line. But it allows me

Scheduling with multiple operations

Hello everyone.  I am hoping someone can give me some suggestions for how to resolve this conflict.  Our manufacturing process is a conveyor belt line.  The first machine does task 1 and the product goes down a conveyor to a second machine that performs task 2, then on to the conveyor belt again until it reaches another machine for a 3rd task.  Then further down the conveyor belt the product is packaged at the final work station. We have these set up as operations within our route, and each operation has a unique work center.The production team reports scrap at the operation level to allocate the correct cost at time of scrap.  They also report labor at the operation level and use for productivity measures.  This has worked great for the production team, but our planning team is downloading files and planning outside of IFS.Our planning team would like to be able to schedule within IFS, but they would like to do so using a single bar in either APB or VP, without the spaghetti effect or

Location to Unissue

Hello, When we unissue component material from a shop order we do not want to unissue back to the original location. Instead we ask the production associates to unissue to a location under a specific location group and the Location to Unissue page. I would like to create a custom event to validate that the user is selecting the appropriate location group when unissuing from shop order but I cannot seem to find the correct logical unit to use. Any ideas?

MRB Case Status IFS 10

We are using IFS 10 UPD9.When the operators create a new MRB the status goes to Created.However, on a least 3 cases the MRB went into status Planned.  We can’t figure out what is making the status be Planned vs Created.Planned doesn’t even seem to be a valid status (doesn’t show in the search options).Can anyone shed some light on why MRBs sometimes create in status Created and sometimes Planned?

Phantom Functionality for Production Recording

Does IFS allow for phantom functionality for production recording? What a phantom should allow is to record the FG in in one UOM (drum) but backflush through the immediate component to the next level lower in the BOM in another UOM. I’ve seen this in other ERP system, but sure in IFS.

Changed Cost Template but Cost Buckets dont change.

We have changed the cost template on a phantom part and rolled up the top level part but the cost bucket does not change. When we changed our template we expected only two variable cost buckets, 200 and RAW. However, LABOH which is a fixed-cost has remained. Any ideas on how to remove this?

Is it possible to report time on the Shop Order Screen without workbench?

We are exploring the feasibility of enabling direct time registration on the shop order screen, even when the shop floor workbench is not in use.This capability is currently present for work orders, allowing time registration on work assignments, which subsequently appears on the time registration screen.

MSO: HR Integration?

Hi, 22R2 and onwards brings the MSO feature, to replace APB in the end. A major drawback of APB was the lacking integration with HR. Employee schedules and rules are not used for APB, which means that hollidays for example are not taken into account for the capacity calculation of a certain labour class. Is this resolved with MSO? Practical example:We have labour class “Welders”. The labour class consists of 2 persons, Person A and Person B,, each working 8h/days 5 days/week. That means, we have a capacity of 16h/workday in the labour class Welders.Person B will go on leave in week 43. This is entered in IFS, in the HR module. However, APB will not see this drop in capacity. In week 43, you will still have 16h/day capacity for labour class welders, while in reality you will only have 8h.Will MSO be able to solve the issue?

Having trouble with MRP Planning on a single sub-assembly

Hi Team,I have transferred an updated EPR Structure to a Manufacturing Structure and set it to Plannable as I always do, but for some strange reason MRP is failing to plan for the child parts. There is significant forecast demand that is appropriately driving demand for other parts in the same parent structure.Is anyone familiar with this error we are seeing when trying to create a Prototype Shop Order?Any thoughts would be appreciated.Thanks,Wade
