GDSN (Global Data Synchronisation Network) from GS1 can be used by Medical Device Manufacturers to upload their product data to make it accessible to for instance EUDAMED. I am looking for companies who have actually implemented a connection (either by file upload or machine-to-machine interface). If so, I would be very happy to get in touch to learn how this connection has been setup.

Hi, all of a sudden we have a printer that is printing double sided.  The 2-sided option within the device settings is unchecked.  The printing default settings and preferences are set to 1 sided as well.  Printing form other applications to this printer are 1 sided so it is something happening in IFS.  Printing to other printers by the same user results in the proper 1 sided.  We are using IFS 9.  Thank you for any assistance with this printer!!

I am looking to build a single query statement that pulls back all parts that are part of a given Part Structure.  If I look at the Tree view in Engineering Part Navigator it shows all parts that are part of the system.  I need the ability to query the database for all parts that belong to this tree.  If someone out there has done this can you please share.  Another way to look at it would be I want everything on the Multilevel tab.  Although the tab shows all part records the view it is based on does not (ENG_PART_STRUCTURE_EXT). Any help would be appricated.

Hello everyone.  I’d like to know if anyone does the following or if it’s even possible. We use standard costing.  Site A manufactures a part that has material, labor and OH cost bucket IDs.  The part is then transferred to Site B.  Currently we use the P-150 cost template to set the standard cost in Site B to be the same as the standard cost in Site A.  The problem is that the cost in Site B is only associated with cost bucket ID 510.  I’d like the material, labor and OH costs from Site A to be the same in Site B.  Is this possible?  Thanks!

Hi, How do we set the status “Scrapped” on Design Objects? When we try to do that, we get the message “This state change is not allowed when the operational status is In Operation”.And the Operational Status seems to be read-only. Thanks in advance!

Hello all, I am currently looking into a way to create an Event Action to notify a user via Streams that a Routing is approaching a Phase Out Date. I’m not quite sure how to do this, as there does not appear to be a way to trigger the the Event. The Phase Out Date would already have the date and it would not be updating, simply lapsing. In the screen shot below, Ideally a Streams notice could be triggered to send 7 days prior to 3/31/2021. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

We have decided to implement price lists function in IFS.  Just wondering if there is a document that lists some best practices to be followed and some do’s and don’ts. Currently we use product family and product group 1 to categorize the products.Engineering/PDM..product number, product type is not used.I am providing this additional information that may or may not be of help to group the products and develop some hierarchy for search, sort down the road.

When we search on screen  the result data can be changes and saved there only.Is this possible ?

Hi All,I am recently involved to setup some 21R1 configuration in various environments. When setting up I encountered various issues such as not knowing which projections to be granted in order to external clients to work, most of them are IAM clients. Which projections to be granted, information was passed by the Product Development teams which helped us. But is there a way to exactly know which projection should be granted so that the external clients would work. e.g. AdvancedPlanningBoard, MaintenancePlanningBoardIntegration I think in Aurena client we can search by Projections by Navigator so inside the client if something isn’t working, we probably can grant these projections to a specific permission set so the purpose is achieved. 

Hi, our customer has a requirement to generate a rework order(shop order) in IFSinside the rework order, (1)It should indicate which component need to be dis-assembly(2)And record the actual dis-assemblied Serial No and re-assebmly Serial No(3)And record the time and cost. In IFS, is there any function can meet this requirement?  

Is there an automated way to substitute an operation across all routings and routing templates.  I have a new operation that needs to be replaced across all routings and some of these are not related to a template.

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?

Looking for a simple way to create an export of all elements and sub-elements of a product structure to Excel.

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!

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
