Hi all,  How can I update Need Dates for Shop Orders, in the event the Required Date for the independent demand against the top-level is changed?For instance, a product could be given a Required Date of next month. MRP then calculates backwards to determine the date at which each material in the bill must be available to salsify said date, using the component lead time (unprotected). I take it this is how Need Dates are calculated. But, if the business has a change in priorities, and we decide to amend our master schedule, I’d like to find a way to update the raised/released/started orders based on us having manually edited the Required Date.That way, when APB is executed over a group of orders, taking Need Date as a means to determine sequencing, it can reflect changes in our priorities at the top-level.Is there a report to provide this alignment? Any data requirements? As of now, we are not using pMRP or DOP. Just IFS Apps 10 (with APB for CBS Sc

Is it possible to prevent users over reporting operations against shop orders? A user a over reported the quantity produced on a shop order which I am wondering if there is a way to prevent happening again.

Hello,I am looking for a way to enable the “receive into inventory on last operation” by part number. I see that there is a way that you can do it by work center, but I can’t find anywhere to do it by part number. If anyone knows of a way to do this, I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you,Matt

I am trying to create shop order from shop order requisitions. But it gives “The Mrp Part Supply Demand object has been modified by another user.” error. How can solve the problem?  

Case:Kamstrup make operation report for every 3 pcs.(PCB’s) with 500 components on a shop order with lot size 3.000 = 3.000/3*500 =500.000 backflush transactions on one PCB order.PCB production line: On daily basis 3 lines runs with a speed of 140 pcs per hour = 140*3/3*500 = 70.000 per hour, 24 hours per day = 1.680.000 backflush transactionsFirst day we had 1.7 mill.When we run full scale (PCB/EL, Water and Heat/Cooling) approx. 25 lines will be up running. Three tables that involves:INVENTORY_TRANSACTION_HIST _TABMPCCOM_ACCOUNTING_TAB (here you will have the transactions times 4 due to nonstandard cost)INVENTORY_TRANSACTION_COST(here you will have the transactions times 2) Q1: First of all we need to find out if there are any other IFS customers running production with that many backflush transactions and if that’s a problem other than it takes out some space on the server and the proces

Is it possible to link IFS to an existing Document Repository?  If the documents are already stored in SharePoint or SCM Harvest is there a way to create hooks / interface to an existing Doc Repository?

Hello, we recently ran the task “Perform ABC, frequency and Lifecycle Classification” process in IFS using our cost = 1.  After the process had completed, all our Inventory Parts ABC class is now = C.  Our accounting group did recently copy a older cost set to cost set one.  Could this be the cause?  I guess it would be helpful as to understand why the system would ever assign class C to all parts.  Thanks!

We are using apps 10 and have created a product structure that contains a by product item.  The product structure is on a business opportunity and transferred to the customer order as a manufactured order, which creates a DOP from the customer order.  Once the shop order is created from the DOP, all components for the product structure appear except the by product item.  Does anyone know what is required to have the by product also appear on the shop order?

After scrapping 66 pieces on Op 230, Ops 180 – 220 show 0 completed? Can you please help me to understand why this report is showing funny.

Hi,in IFS10 IEE it is possible to create work order direct from project activity. Does Aurena have the same functionality?

We are working on moving to standard costing from weighted average and in our analysis, we do have a question on explaining why doesn’t Cum Qty per Assembly <> Qty per assembly?  What condition causes this?  Please see the example below:  Both part numbers 11032 & 11033 have 1 unit per assembly but the cumulative Qty per assembly = 0.  When adding on to the Total Cost to next level, it therefore does not take into account the cumulated level cost even though the unit cost has a cost.  Part# 11033 - unit cost = .9994 x cum qty per assembly = 0 = 0.  So the Total cost to next level just carries over the cost level from part# 11007 =.73So, I guess the question is if there is a qty per assembly value (1 in this case), why does it not carry over to the Cumulative Qty Per Assembly (0 is this case)?  

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?
