When it comes to APB related issues, there are some issues raised due to end user specific machine settings. For example my operating system is windows US whilst the customer windows OS is a different. Q: Is there any way to create similar kind of environment settings in our local machine

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!

If I have one main operation and others are parallel, is there a way that the parallel operations are tied to the main operation, so that drag the main operation will bring the parallel operations together, without leaving them behind?

Hello,I’m searching for the best option to receive into multiple warehouse locations from a large manufacturing Shop Order.   Currently, our systems appears to be set up for just one location. Thanks,Dorretta Brummet

Hi All, When transferring custom pages from our development to test environment the screen formatting is lost.  The fields end up in a different order on the page in the test environment.  Thanks 

Hi There,I am new to IFS, I am researching on CICD of IFS 7.5 and IFS 9.Is there a way to connect IFS to some source control like github and any CICD tools to perform automated build and release to different environments.Please provide suggestions on devops in IFS.

Hi, Community, Need your expertise on HR clocking , Shop floor workbench clocking and more.We are acquired by our parent company year ago, and the parent company is starting the standardize program, standardize the time clocking system. we are on APP10(upgraded from APP8 at technical level only), never use time clocking system before. Parent company’s expectation is to have everyone of the company using time clocking via IFS, plus we have lots of contractor working on production line, they also need manufacturing clocking to get the payment. your feedback is very much appreciated. Thank you.

I am trying to set up a custom field that is a checkbox which is going to be true if all the checkboxes are true at line level below or it wont get checked in the checkbox if even one of the values at line level has the checkbox unticked(due to line level logic) I tried to set that field as a read only field and wrote below script ( I am using using select statement as Implementation type) - select CASE WHEN((select count(CF$_TEST) from PART_AVAIL_STRUC1931493261_CFV J WHERE CF$_TEST = 'False' AND J.TOP_CONTRACT = :TOP_CONTRACT AND J.TOP_PART_NO = :TOP_PART_NO) > 0) THEN 'FALSE' ELSE 'TRUE' END FROM DUAL Now when I finish the process by selecting field type as enumeration and boolean where enumeration is FndBoolean I get the attached error Can somebody help me understand, where is the issue what I might be doing wrong ?

When manually reserving a serial object, it would be beneficial to filter by the customer or shop order to identify the finished goods from a specific shop order. This would be helpful when a shop order has a large quantity of finished goods (i.e. serial parts) so it is too cumbersome to filter by serial number. And if there is another shop order with the same part and config ID, it is impossible to tell which serial parts belong to which shop order. Suggestions please?

Hi I have a finished good with a standard cost (BOM & Routing exist) but I want it at zero cost in my inventory, ie all actual cost on the shop order comes as a shop order deviation in P&L. I guess the best idea is to set the item to ‘zero cost only’   but when I try to save it I get an error   But I have no idea how to set the cost of the product to zero!Anybody now how to move forward here ? Thanks,    Søren

Hello Community,We are using IFS APPS 8. What is Back Fulsh , Auto Report of Operations and Simplified Material check and its uses while reciveing shop orders. For teting purpose I have create a shop order with Lit Size of 1000.Then I have manually reserved this shop order with only one qty  of component parts in Material Tab.Then I have Issued manually One qty.Then I have reported total 1000 qty.Then I have Checked Simplified Material check option in Receive Shop order window in Material and Operations and received manually 1000 qty. This behavior of shop order receipt does not required coponent parts stock in system.If only one component is reserved and issue then user can receive 1000 qty shop order in system. I need to know what is the purpose of this Simplified Material check tab. RegardsDeepak 

When the Site is set to auto build tracked structures, what logic is used for allocating reserved lots of component parts to the parent serials/lot(s) on a shop order? What determines how much of each lotgoes where?

I want to generate purchase requisition when the levels of some parts get to a certain level but first i have to activate a kanban circuit. Somebody know how can i active a kanban circuit i use IFS10.

I have a manufactured part I only want to build when I have actual demand, not to forecast. I would use a planning method of next level demand, however, there are very long lead times for the purchased raw material to build the component and I would like the Finished Good forecast to drive requirements for the purchased material. Consider this example…Finished Good – BikeManufactured Component – WheelPurchased – Tire I want to purchase enough tires to support the Finished good demand. However, I don’t want to assemble the wheels unless there is actual demand for the bike. Reason being there is a very long lead time on tires and a very high cost of assembling wheels.Is it possible to not have MRP generate requisitions for the component or finished good, but still generate purchase reqs for raw materials? Is it possible to accomplish this, and still have the make parts included in CRP?

Listed here is what I can tell is the list I have available to myself to search for approvals.  I don’t see where I can search approvals on projects or requisitions.  Anyone know if this is an option?

Can anyone explain why there is missing numbers the inventory barcode sequence? What happened to 39501 ?

Hi all,Our current Manufacturing Lead Times (as found in ‘Inv. Part’ - ‘Acquisition’) are not accurate.This is because the calculation used by IFS totals all the values we’ve specified, including the queue times (entered manually) for each work center in the routing of a part. This formula doesn’t seem correct. Case:Consider part, P, which has an MLT of 100 days.P could have 3 operations, at 3 different work centers, with 3 different queue times.WC1 - (queue time against the calendar in working days) = 10 WC2 = 20WC3 = 70 In isolation, the values for each work center are true. For example, if anther part, P2, has only WC3 in its routing, it may need to wait 70 days based on the loading of the resources to begin work.  However, the original part, P, routed through WC1- 3 doesn’t have a lead-time of 100 days. Since the 70 working days of queue time is greater than the preceding operations, this would absorb the wait time for the 2 prior operations. So, the actual queue time for P would b

Is there a way to search by Report Distribution Groups, and individual?

Hi,Is there a way to Filter out work centers from APB Master data. When there is a long list of work centers that are no longer use or RRP work centers which will not used in APB planning, would be nice to  remove from the Master data. 

For example:If you have the same part in two companies/sites. In the Aurena client, first set the search criteria to one site. Then run the search for the part number.Both the parts from the two companies/sites are fetched for the query results regardless of the previously set site search criteria.In IEE client this filtration is available and only the part corresponding to the filtration criteria which was set initially will be displayed.

Hi all,Another one thats driving me up the wall.Apps10Requirement is to insert sysdate + 14 into target completion date when a user creates an NCR.First stop was writing a custom event to populate the field.I’ve made so many code alterations i cant even remember if this is the correct one now so use it as an example.DECLAREpragma autonomous_transaction; INFO_ VARCHAR2(200) := NULL; OBJID_ VARCHAR2(200) := NULL; OBJVERSION_ VARCHAR2(200) := NULL; ATTR_ VARCHAR2(200) := NULL; ACTION_ VARCHAR2(200) := 'DO'; DATE_ VARCHAR2(200) ;CURSOR GET_DATE_ IS select to_char((sysdate + 14),'DD/MM/YYYY')from dual;BEGIN OPEN GET_DATE_; FETCH GET_DATE_ INTO DATE_; CLOSE GET_DATE_; Client_SYS.Clear_Attr(attr_); Client_SYS.Add_To_Attr('TARGET_COMPLETION_DATE',DATE_, attr_); NON_CONFORMANCE_REPORT_API.modify__ ( INFO_,OBJID_,OBJVERSION_,ATTR_,'DO');END; If i dont add the pragma then i get the mutating trigger etc.If i add the pragma i get.  So figured to get around this i woul

In App10 Quality Management/Quality Control/Basic Data/Quality Basic Data  - Part window the part lines cannot be deleted as shown below.  However, this functionality is available in App9. Refer below screen capture. Any reason for this change in App10 when compared to App9? 

When i create a fault report system always generate work task with customer order type ‘SEO’.Is it possible to change this default value?Vasco

I would to know if the operation status of maintenance object can affect the manufacturing work center status or availability?Or the other way arround when i report the work center has downtime because a problem. is it possible to automatically generation out of operation in maintenance object?Vasco Silva
