Acceptance Sampling for not lo tracked parts

Hello,I was wondering if it is possible to use the acceptance sampling for not lot tracked parts, where the methodology would calculate then every time based on the lot size of the shop order.I have tested it, and it is possible - acceptance sampling calculates the sample size, however I am not sure what other consequences it might have? Thank you very much in advance for your help in this one.

Upgrade Shop Floor LTU projections - Report Operation

Hello, I’ve raised an IFS case CS0346331 because in 24R2 considering the new Shop Floor LTU permission set we lost some projections for my customer that their employees were using.I can understand that the goal is to reduce at the strict minimum the permissions allowed to LTU users but some of the projections should be in the Shop Floor LTU.Here is the list of projections we “lost” due to the upgrade : I highlighted in yellow the ones that should be still available in the Shop Floor LTU permission set. indeed these projections allow us to access to these IFS pages : In these pages, we can quickly report some operations, with or without a barcode. While operations can already be approved in the shop floor workbench, this page is easier to understand and more suitable for certain quick operations than the shop floor workbench.

Shop Orders Numbering

Dear All, When creating shop order from shop order requisitions, I have found the following behaviour. If a Shop Order is creating using the create shop order requisition the number will be set to a numerical number. Here 691.  If 2 others are created :  The next number is 265, meaning 2 others were created and deleted 263 and 264.Why do we have some shop orders created and removed ? Is it a normal behaviour ?

Inquiry About Component Reservation Settings in IFS Cloud - reservation of a valid version of an input component in Shop Order.

I would like to ask whether it is possible to configure IFS Cloud 24.2.2 so that when manufacturing a new (valid) version of a product, the system automatically considers the new (valid) version of the input component as well.Currently, we are experiencing an issue where, during the reservation of input components for a Shop Order (setting Reserve/Issue Method is Reserve And Backflush), the system incorrectly reserves an older version of the component (if it is in stock) instead of the currently valid version. Is there a way to adjust this behavior in the system settings?Thank you for your help and advice.

Saving a Column Ordering preference

Is it possible to save an ordering (Order By) preference of a table column like you would save a specific search.We notice that if you leave the page where you have Ordered a column that you have to re-Order it the next time you return to that page. Is there a setting somewhere to prevent the ordering from resetting after you leave the page. I didn’t see any functionality related column Order By similar to the Saved Searches functionality.

Part numbers structure across the entire process (Engineering → Production → Sales)

Dear Community!I would greatly appreciate your expert insights and experiences regarding part number structures in IFS.We are currently analyzing different approaches to part number management, specifically comparing:    Using identical part numbers across the entire process (Engineering → Production → Sales)    Using separate part numbers for:        Internal use (Engineering Part/Inventory Part)        External use (Sales Part)I would be very interested to hear your thoughts on:    What approach do you use and why?    What are the main advantages and challenges you've encountered?    How does your chosen approach impact the entire process.Thank you for sharing your valuable experience and knowledge!Best regards,Ada

Shop Order - Labour Overhead 1 - No increment for WIP

Hi,How it is possible to calculate Overheads to Shop Order, without it increases the WIP in Shop Order? GL Automatic Posting Rule is not a choice (for creating automatic posting for Debet M45 / Credit M40 after Overheads are applied), because of Shop Order’s value still gets increment.I tried to create a new Cost Set for this purpose, but I cannot see anywhere those Overheads at all.Any suggestions?Thank you all already!

Cost Tree for Components Not Coming Over on Cost Set 1Consistently

Hi Everyone, We are using IFS Apps 10.  After doing our year end cost roll, we noticed a few of our parts on the “Part Cost” Screen did not carry over the cost build Cost Tree for component parts after we do a copy from Cost Set 2 to Cost Set 1. Our steps for the cost roll are as follows, for all parts, all run through background jobs Copy cost set 7 to cost set 2 (Controls defaults to select the Include Components and is not editable) Copy cost set 2 to cost set 1 (Controls does not default to select the Include Components and is not editable. We found later this can be editable if we add anything to the Cost Group, Part Status or Part No Field, even a %) The copy from Cost set 7 to Cost set 2 worked fine and brought over the components.  We can’t figure out a reason why some of the parts included the cost trees in Cost Set 1 and some didn’t. We looked at two similar parts (same accounting group, product family, product code, etc) and one of the parts had the cost tree with the compon

Printing shop orders and generating lot numbers

I have a two-part Shop order question:Is there a way to batch print Shop Orders. Is there a way to batch generate lot numbers for shop orders. Furthermore, can we allow lot numbers to be in some cases duplicated for the same part without IFS having to assigned a suffix (hyphenate with a -1, -2, etc) to the lot number.

MSO Functionality / Resource Breaks / Work Center Capacity

Hi.  We are currently running IFS Cloud 23R1 in the Gov Cloud. My understanding based on release notes is that Constraint Based Scheduling (CBS) / Advanced Planning Board (APB) functionality will eventually be deprecated, to be replaced with Manufacturing Scheduling and Optimization (MSO) functionality.   We recently upgraded to 23R1, but the MSO functionality is not available, presumably because it is licensed separately.  We have security configured to secure ITAR data at the site level, so we have set up a regular non-ITAR site and an ITAR site for such locations.  These locations have work centers that are used for both ITAR and non-ITAR work, so separate work centers are set up in each site for the same physical work centers.  This results in a lot of manual work to maintain the schedules and capacity, so we are looking into a possible customization to have work center capacity / scheduling automatically updated for these work centers - so that when a shop order operation is creat

Create Purchase Requisition" option is not available in the Shop order material Tab

We are seeking a solution to the creation of material purchase requisitions directly from the Shop Order Materials tab within the IFS Application. This essential functionality is currently Not Available is the IFS Application, At present, users are required to manually input material requirements through the Purchase Requisition screen, which can be time-consuming.  and the function of “MRP” is available, however there is a connection between the “demands” and “supply” so a user cannot identify if his required materials have been ordered or not.Can we do it functionally or configuration?By adding the material purchase requisition creation process to the Shop Order Materials tab, the requisition would be linked to the shop order making it user-friendly and have accurate tracking of purchases to shop order. This will help to streamline operations, enhance accuracy, and ultimately improve productivity.Thanks

Cost per serial-Cost on CO does not include components

Good afternoon, I have the following scenario: I have a Customer Order for a Cost per serial part. In order to build that part, I am sending components to the supplier (The CS part has attached a Product structure to include the components).The Purchase Component Method is Customer Order and the items are not charged.The Cost on CO does not show the whole cost for Cost per serial part, it has only the amount that I pay for assembly. I run the same test for a non-serial part and the cost includes the cost of the components.Do I have an incorrect setting somewhere?We are using IFS 10 UPD 16.Thanks,Cora

Unit Cost updated from esimated shop order cost

Hi All, When using the inventory cost setting; Standard Cost, Cost per Part, Zero Cost ForbiddenIn previous releases of IFS, you was forced to calculate cost and copy to cost set one, before receipt of the part as inventory value zero was not allowed. The calculation of cost and set standard cost is a fundamental concept for many companies. We are now running IFS Cloud 23R2 and notice that you are not forced to calculate and set standard cost anymore, is that a new parameter implemented to get old logic to be used?I have read release notes from App 10 and later but haven’t found anything related to this issue. To set Unit Cost based on estimated shop order cost when first received is not accepted by all controlers.
