Hi We are using APPs 10 and trying to schedule operations in sequence so they do not plan to start in parallel. We have created a new work centre which only has one operations that travels through the work centre, set the ‘ concurrent operations’ to NOT Allowed - Group start in sequence (work centre below)when  the MRP schedules the operations it plans for the operations to start before the previous operation is finished. In the routing there is 0 Overlap and a crew size of 1, its physically impossible to do this, why is the system scheduling in this way?regardsJamie 

I’ve created a new shop order by following a training doc support. I’ve got the following error message : “Structure Revision is null. Issuing is not allowed”. And during the flow, the following question (Popup) appears : “The shop order is for revision of part XXX-YYY. The location you selected in row 1 have different revison for the part. Do you want to continue?” I’ve answerd yes after checking that they are both rev 1. All advices are welcome. Thank you. 

Hi,  I just notice that in  Parts Master,  there is an attribute called “Allow Sub Lot”. and in “Part Lot Batch” screen, there is a “Sub Lot” Tab.But is there anyone know how a “Sub Lot” be generated? I tried split a shop order ;  partially receive a purchse order but the there is No sub-lot generated. is there any doc regarding this?   

When we are using the comprehensive split function in shop order to split shop orders in the middle of the production process. Is it possible for the “Split Catch Qty” to be automatically fetched since it takes a considerable time to manually enter the “Split Catch Qty” to the material lines. Is this the expected functionality of the application or are we able to make it fetch the catch quantities automatically?

Hi,IFS has a menu called “Storage Optimization”Warehouse Management>Part Handling>Storage OptimizationDoes any one know know what’s functionality it offer? any documentation of it?

Hi, Does anyone know of a way to make Material Requisitions default to create in a Planned status? I know this is configurable for POs & Shop Orders (etc.) but I can’t see any settings for Material Requisitions to default this.We COULD event it but I would worry that the event would fire while the req is being filled out and then cause an error and the user would have to start over.Hoping someone can assist and point me in the right direction.Thanks,Andy

Hi All, we are unable to close the shop orders as we are near to closing of the month. this becomes the show stopper for us.

almighty Community, when parts arrived at the dock, for serialized parts, we might use supplier serial - Configuration ID 1 use our company serial - Configuration ID 2for option 1, we use one configuration which could scan serial no directly. We configured Register Arrival ID 1for option 2, we use another configuration which user has to assign Pre, Padding, Seq… to assign serial no manually. We configured Register Arrival ID 2. then it comes to a problem, user has to switch back and forth from 1 and 2 when receiving parts,  and each time they switch, they have to scan Receipt Reference and PO No again. would it be possible for WADACO, can switch by just click one key without back out the whole session? or we even don’t have to have 2 configuration ID, one ID that could handle this kind of scenario? Thank you.

hello everyone! I need your help with some steps or screenshots if you can. I have a problem with count report, we are taking to much time counting the parts because there are thousands and we are late sometimes. we want the IFS10 do it automatically. because they are classified by A,B and C. There are any way to do a cycle count automatically?Any idea would help, please.

Hello Community,We are using IFS APPS 8.What is Cycle counting and how we can use it . RegardsDeepak

We are looking to make a change in the way floor stock (small screws, washers, etc) is handled when putting a shop order to the floor.Floor stock is set to purchased items but does NOT show in “on hand” inventory. This causes the material to show as a shortage on the pick list. However, the material is on the shop floor in bulk and available for use.I looked at changing the floor stock to Part Type: Expense, but results in a error message “ routing head and structure head exist”. The organization does not wish to remove floor stock from the BOM.Does anyone know how to set up floor stock items to be on the BOM but not on the stock room pick list as a shortage?  

Hi, Community, for some reason, Part Description needs to be changed. i don’t think it difficult to change it via migration job, but since it’s a global description, it was brought forward to, for example, Inventory Part, Purchase Part, sales part, supplier for purchase part…. my question is, shall we have to change one by one(inventory part, sales part, purchase part….) or we have a smart way other than that? Thank you.

Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me this, we have multiple sites and companies and i was wondering if there a way for a user who have granted access to multiple companies to switch between companies? 

Hello all, Is there anyway to link specific inventory lot to specific customer ? For example,Inventory Part : ABCLot : 123456To be link with customer code 123456 only And can be invoiced only to this customer.I’m thinking about  to use Availability Control ID to handle, but it doesn’t seem to solve the problem. Thank you.

Hi,Is anyone aware about a documentation regarding system requirement for APP10 CBS ?Thank you for your help in advane!, Regards,Naveena

For an Apps9 customer, I have observed that when creating MCPR invoices the ‘Multi-Company Project Invoice No’ is not updated correctly in the customer transactions.1. Create MCPR transactions > Approve from both companies > Create the preliminary invoice from Employee company2. “Multi-Company Project Invoice No” field is updated correctly in Customer company transactions.3. Release the Preliminary invoice > Then final (PJ) invoice will be created4. ‘Employee Project Transactions’ > Note Invoice No is updated correctly5. Go to Customer Project transaction > ‘Multi-Company Project Invoice No’ is not updated correctly. Any reason for this?Thank you

How do I find PO’s that correspond to a certain shop order by looking up the Lot#

Does anyone have a planned schema for setting up Standard Names, Main Groups, and Part Classes as a best practice?  Looking to integrate our PLM system for the first time into IFS (has been a separate application to this point), just curious if anyone can offer your methodology to give me some ideas as I go through the design for our next site.  We are still on V9, and will go live on that version before going to Cloud next year, not sure yet whether that makes a difference, but don’t want to do something now that has to be undone later.

Hi,We are having an issue related to history tab of MRO Shop Orders.When you manually add a material line to the SO, you can see that the order history captures it and includes the part number as the new value. But when you delete this material line, the order history doesn't capture the deleted part as the old value. I believe this should be captured.Can someone please validate?

A serial object was created from a customer order line where the Create SM Object box was checked, after the line was delivered. Is it possible to delete the serial object?

How do I find PO if I only have the Batch Number?

Is there a way to undo the delivery of a customer order line that has the Create SM Object box checked?

I’m a new on IFS and I’ve followed a 2 months training on IFS apps10. When I create a distr. order, I need to repeat the process many times or click on refresh many times to get it released. Is it possible to scan this process execution through a menu (background processing)? and how to do it?

Hi All,I would like to move WIP items between internal work centres and keep track of the movements by having one work centre transfer the item out and the receiving work centre transfer it in essentially. What is the best way to do this?                 

I have a customer that would like to have the cost of a manufactured part set to 0 in the standard cost, even though it has components in the structure. It is a part that is usually generated as a by-product but they still would like it to be set as manufactured. it has the setting Only Zero Cost allowed on the Inventory part so the inventory value is always 0, but the standard cost that they use for pre-calculation is incorrectly set to the calculated value. Any tips and ides is welcome!
