Dear community.I have seen this a bit but I’ve never understood why this occurs. Maybe someone can help me. I have a Shop Order with reserved material. I want to print a pick list, I RMB Reports \ Print Pick List. I make my selections in the dialog and select print. When presented with the print dialog, I preview, the pick list is blank, the only thing i notice about this is each time this happens, the Shop Order Pick Lis: Order No, in the print dialog is blank;  However If I go to “Manufacturing\Shop Order\Handle Material\Issue Material Using Pick List” there are no existing pick lists for this Shop Order.  How can I get a new pick list printed for this shop order and what is the behavior that is causing the blank as highlighted above? Thanks David. 

Hi all, Is there a page in IFS Apps 10 which enables the user to view all the items with independent demand (Proj. Misc) against it? As it stands, demand is released for each project, so if we wish to review the required date for product/end-item it needs to be done in isolation. Is there a way we can view the top-level of a plan so we can make macro decisions about what entire products to push out in exchange for others? thanks,Jay

I’m working on setting up a lobby element to show late PO’s per vendor. This is what I have as of currently (mind you i’m relatively new to IFS and SQL); This is the request for the element;I wanted to post and see if anyone had the ability to help me with getting this in order. Thank you in advance. We have an element that does this currently, but with the PO lines rather than the PO as a whole. And if it helps, we are on APPS9, UPD16 I believe.  

Hey folks,IFS 10 here, is there a way to do copy costs to cost set one with part family filtering?I tried with migration job but it endedup with thousands of lines in background job.

In Apps10 when a DOP order is raised for a structure that contains a phantom planned item as a component part, the DOP structure and shop order is not exploding the phantom parts structure out, even though there is no stock of the phantom item. The only option now is for the user to go to the created shop order, find the phantom component line and to RMB replace with phantom part with its components. Is anyone aware of a method without custom events to achieve a phantom explosion in the DOP structure automatically?

We use the Project Deliverables Navigator to calculate the total cost of all the deliverables in a project. Based on the total cost, we determine our sales price for the project. The impact of a Price List discount can be significant on the total cost and thus the sales price of a project. We found out that the data of the Price List on a Supplier for Purchase Part is not always included when preforming the Gross Requirements Calculation in the Project Deliverables Navigator. Scenario 1: Price List on one Item with Purchase PartWhen you connect a Purchase Part with an Item in the Project Deliverables Navigator, IFS calculates with the discount in the Price List on the Supplier for Purchase Part. This is as desired. See the example below: Scenario 2: Price List on multiple Items with Purchase PartsWhen you connect the same Purchase Part with multiple Items, IFS does not take the Price List discount on the Supplier for Purchase Part into account. Conclusion: Price List discount is calcul

Hi all,We are running a production with a considerably amount of programming (cad/cam/dtp) between operations. We need to register the time used. For that we have created a the work center, Programming. The routing can look like this:This leaves us with some challenges. The main one is that programming can finish before and after the other operations. E.g. operation 20 can finish before operation 10 (not possible in IFS) and the other way around.We suspect that we should do this in another way. Any suggestions? 

We use the full MRP - shop orders created by demand from sales and automatic purchasing but we are having issues with stock availability. There seem to be a number of reasons, most are down to custom fields/processes we brought in due to the unique was the business operates. Does anyone else experience issues? Considering performing stock availability checks outside of the system using a BI took, or other 3rd party app 

We are manufacturing products which can be sold under a different brands.  The product and the packaging is exactly the same (product structure and routing identical) , but the marking is different depending on the customer In IFS (V8), we have many sales parts linked to the same inventory part. The marking information is today carried by the sales part.Ex :Sales part A / marking A => inventory part 1Sales part B / marking B => inventory part 1Sales part C / marking B => inventory part 1The issue we are facing is that we have a project in-house to connect IFS to our marking machine to automate the marking operation and so, we need to bring the marking information in a routing operation. Alternates routing can manage this, but the choice of the marking must be automatic. And we do not want to duplicate our inventory parts.Is there any solution or tip to have a different operation or routing for the same inventory part based on the sales part ? 

We are currently on apps 9.7 and need to set up a second export license for a scenario where a purchased material must have a license, and can be controlled by multiple licenses, but in a way that we need to select one or the other when purchasing it.  Both licenses should not be connected to a single Purchase Order line because the licenses have separate quantities allowed to be licensed.Example:Part No: 923License: 8      Qty licensed for PN 923: 3500     This license is already in use and should be connected when the material is purchased for the purpose of being used in productionLicense: 9       Qty licensed for PN 923: 250    This license is new and should be connected when the material is purchased for the purpose of being used internallyPurchase Order:     Line 1/Rel 1 - PN 923 - qty 250 - should be connected to license 9     Line 1/Rel 2 - PN 923 - qty 500 - should be connected to license 8On the PO for this material each line shows as "partly connected" when only connected to

Hello, I am looking for a way to prevent our Logistics department from Delivering/Completing a shipment without approval. Currently, we have been experiencing issues with incomplete data being filled out by our shipping clerks. This is leading to post-shipment cleanup transactions. I’ve noticed in Shipment Type, there is an Approve before Delivery checkbox. The help seems to indicate that enabling this will require a shipment to be approved before Delivery can be made. Unfortunately, there is not additional detail on how this approval works. Has anyone used this feature before? If so, how is the approval setup? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! 

Is there a way in IFS to enter translations for Part Characteristics Values?  (Not Codes) 

My company has recently began to develop kits that include several items that are sold individually also. Demand for the kit is not driving down to the components.The kit part number has MS Level 1 forecast demand and customer order demand. Set up as G/30 with SS and Min Lot Size.The items used in the kit also have MS Level 1 forecast demand and customer order demand. Set up as G/30 with SS and Min Lot Size.The kit supply *shop orders* shows as demand on the kit component. The kit supply *shop order requisitions* does NOT. How do I get combined total demand for the kit component that includes all of these:Component MS Level 1 Forecast Component Customer Orders Kit Shop Orders Kit Shop Order Requisitions Thank you!

Good Morning Community.We are using IFS version 8.How can I restrict creation of shop order for specific part nos by unauthorized users.If part no is ABCD-OOGH-0001,ABCD-OOGH-0002,ABCD-OOGH-0003,ABCD-OOGH-0004then user jack can create the shop order for this part but not other users.

Does someone have the SQL code required to create a Quick Report for Supplier Age Analysis ? 

We have a problem with Shop Order requisition due dates relative to shop order start dates that result from a MRP run. If our order quantity is 1, the manufacturing lead-time is 5, and the due date is 09/25/2020 then the start date will be 09/24/2020; why is it not offset 5 days?  Should be offset by the fixed manufacturing lead-time. If we change the order quantity to 10, then the start date is offset by 10 days and is 9/15/2020; this is not good.  We want to use “standard practice” where the lead-time offset is not affected by the order quantity size. Can anyone please help with this? EDM

Does anyone offer tools or shortcuts that would aide in setting up permissions in Aurena? We have permission sets for functional areas in IEE that we would like to convert over.  The process now seems quite manual. Thanks.

Hello,  I’m attempting to use the Copy Part feature to copy an Inventory Part, Routing, and Product structure to another site in my system. Currently, we are creating parts in an estimating site that houses all of our work centers, labor classes, etc. Once the parts are finalized, I would like to use the Copy Part function to move those parts to the correct manufacturing site. I have noticed that the Copy Part function works, however it does not bring over my routing steps. I’ve tried changing the status to Build, but the routing steps still do not appear after the copy. I’m not sure if there is something I’m missing, or if this is how the Copy Part function works when you try to copy to another site.  The final item I’ve noticed is that you are not able to copy a new Product Structure component part to a new site unless you manually copy the part prior to running the Copy Part from the top level Inventory Part. My assumption was that if you run the Copy Part from the top level, if

Hi All, This question is related to BR version 5.0.9.0. Please see attached word document for related screen shots.   Attempt 1: I added a  customer attribute ‘SELECTION_GRP’  to FACT_TIME_TRANSACTION (source type - Function Call) and used it as a BR report parameter . The report will show LoV for ‘Selection Group’ when it runs from BR .But when I run it from IFS/Order Report LoV is not displayed. I think the reason for missing LoV in IFS may be ‘SELECTION_GRP’ is not a primary key item   Attempt 2: I did not see a standard dimension for ‘Selection Group’ , So I created a Quick Dimension  for Selection Group. And tried to create a Relation for Fact using Quick Dimension. but was unable to do so because I could not find a fact item id from FACT_TIME_TRANSACTION to the ‘selection_group’ source reference. The customer requirement is to see LoV for ‘Selection Group’  in IFS. I would like to know how do I achieve this.  Can someone please help?   Thank you!   Disna    

Hi, One of our manufacturing work centers (currently setup with a single resource and labor class, on a 24/6 calendar, equating to 24 hours of available capacity per day) needs to be amended. We’re looking for this loading cell to enable 48 hours of work to be done per day. A new calendar can’t be created (48/6). Our only option, it appears, is to include an additional resource.But in doing so, APB (our main scheduling platform) makes the orders released to this work center start in parallel to each other. Where, in reality they should be one after. Is there another way around this, without recourse to halving the MFG factor of the parts routed to this work center?Any suggestions? many thanks,Jay

Hi,Is it possible to somehow set the volume and weight on the customer order line of a configured part based on the characteristic values? If you for example enter the dimensions of the product as char values the weight and volume need to be calculated.Kind regardsKristian

Hello,The Quality Team has requested to store some data that in the standard environment doesn't exist.In details they want to manage the daily repairs they do during the production.The repairs are connected to an existing MRB case (Quality Management->Quality Assurance->Material Review Board->Case->MRB Case).What they need to store (and of course put in a report that will be developed later) is:1.MRB Number2.Part number3.User ID4.DateThere could be many part numbers in many dates for the same MRB Number. Each of them represent a single row of the table.For doing this it is necessary to create a new LU, isn't it ?The new LU has to be inserted into a new tab in the MRB Case LU, taking the field [1] from the header: how to obtain it ? As a parameter ? As a read-only field ?The field[2] has to be taken from the components of the shop order written in the header: my thought is to create a field type "Reference", but how to select only the rows belonging to the order ?And finall
