Hello All,    Is possible in IFS 10 that  authorized person will be move inventory part to other location (after inventory receipt)and   target location person received if he allowed.  Kindly suggest us that how can do this in IFS10/Aurena.   

Dears, what solution do you use to automatically fill in data into a control plan? So you measure something with a QC equipment, and the value is automatically added to IFS. Is this something the IoT business connector can do? Thank you,Merten

Hi, I don't fully understand the date logic in the time-phased supply proposals created by IFS for an end-item (in an engineer-to-order setting). Can you outline the key types of dates (or 'offsetting inputs') that figure within scheduling. From specifying when the user desires said item, to all the subsequent dates that are generated after BoM explosion. The 'tools' at are disposal are IFS Apps 10, namely, MRP that executes 'Infinite Scheduler' and 'APB' (our method to CBS schedule items to reflect 'live' capacity constraints such as the current load at a given work centre). I'll provide a brief description of our current practice and raise questions alongside that. If there's any misuse, do say so. Overview: A 'Required Date' is specified when demand is created, used to say when project 'X' is desired. Does this input need to be constrained by a lead time, whether plausible or not? For instance, can you specify the Required Date for X as 1/1/15? I'm not asking whether the system has

I have tried adding the Shipment Packing List (SHIPMENT_PACKING_LIST_REP) to the Document Footer in Company > Basic Data > Document Footer > Connect Report tab: On entering  SHIPMENT_PACKING_LIST_REP and pressing tab the Report Title is updated accordingly but not the Component this remains blank and is not updateable.   On clicking Save an error message is displayed ‘The Footer Connection Master does not exist’.   Is it possible to add reports to the Footer Connection Master, if so, how is this done. Thank you for looking. John

After trying to close a Shop Order, we are having ghost reservations which show as a Handling Unit reserved to an order, but the parts were issued to another order and do not exist.  When trying to close out we receive an Inventory Part In Stock error message.  We have tried to un-issue the materials to the location it says it is reserved to, which shows the materials on the Shop Order reservation, but when tying to un-reserve it says the bin cannot be negative.  Looking for any help with this issue as we have multiple orders unable to be closed.   

There are more than one occasions that I have come across that our users define one physical machine in 2 sites expecting to plan shop order operations seamlessly. But this set up sometime leads to very confusing consequences. Example : Company : A Site : X Site : Y Expensive CNC machine is installed in Site X ( defined as a manufacturing work center in Site X as "CNC-X"). But this usually runs under capacity ( lets assume that both sites runs on 8 hr calendar). So The company decides that they can put some shop orders registers in Site Y to be done in the under utilized work center in Site X. Therefore it is decided to define the work center in site Y as " CNC-Y" in IFS. Now lets assume that the manufacturing planner has access to both site X and site Y shop order operations. If you run CRP, since in IFS , CNC is 2 distinct work centers, the capacity available is 8 hr each. Which is not really the case. For both sites , the available hours are 8 in total per day. In such setup p

Hi,I need to add a custom dropdown for UoM. Is there a way for me to utilize the stock UoM menu option as my enumeration? I searched for ISO_UNIT but I didn’t see it as an option. I don’t think that I can use a reference because it can be different than the inventory part (or sales part or purchased part, etc) uom.Thanks,Mike  

A member of our sales team created a “Non-Inventory Sales Part,” added it as a line item on the customer order, and now I am unable to transfer the engineering structure since this item is already seen on the inventory side. This is creating a problem because without the structure, which the sales part doesn’t have, we cannot set the structure to buildable and issue shop orders. Is it possible to delete this “Non-Inventory Sales Part?”

Hi, Is it possible to extract the Notes from IFS? 

Hi all,We often have a scenario like this:We have a shop order for 10 pcs.For that we cut out 1 sheet and purchase a treatment at a subcontractor.We receive the sheet back a cut it out in 10 pcs.Routing:Cut 1 sheet Outside operation 1 sheet Cut 10 pcs The problem is that we cannot ship 1 sheet and make 10 pcs from that. At the moment, we create a extra inventory part for the outside operation, but it is not working well for us.Is there a clever way to handle this?   

We have 1 old transport which remaining for months. It it kinda stuck, we could not neither could not execute nor delete the line.

Hi,Is there a screen visible in IFS where you can see all transactions relating to a Customer Order.For example you could view order status, invoice number, any collections or credits raised against the order?

Hello, I’m trying to figure out what would be the best approach to identify parts that are eligible for discontinuation.  Basically I’m looking for parts that have very low sales over the last couple of years. What tools or methods does everyone recommend here?I saw there was a slow moving parts report in planning but the results didn’t make sense to me. Thank you, Matt

We have seen that whenever we revise a lower level component and set the previous revision to obsolete, every structure where that part is used still shows the obsolete revision level, instead of the latest one.The only way to correct this is to also revise the top level part to then show the latest lower level part revisions in the structure, which is time consuming and burdensome.Is there a way of being able to update the structure of either ‘Active’ or ‘Released’ Engineering Part Revisions which contains obsolete lower level (child) part revisions?

I am looking for a standard delivery note for the materials we ship to our suppliers. I can’t find it. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Hey guys after some help pleaseIs it possible to receipt in goods without inputting batch/serial/lot numbers? and if so how do you do this?

In IFS 10 we have very often, during shorter or longer periods during the day, very bad performance in the shop order cost window. System is just hanging when trying to go from shoporder through RMB to shop order cost and user ends up killing the session.In the overview shoporder costs we have not issues as this data is being updated by the aggregate shoporder cost job but when going to shop order cost by RMB  the same issue appear.The issue is the same regardless of the status of the shoporder (released, closed etc)We have not been able to figure out what is causing these performance issues, have anyone experienced the same issue?

Is it normal that IFS (Apps8) does not make any live control on the lot/batch number when receiving parts into stock from a RMA ?IFS should suggest the different lot/batch no related the customer order line. Today, we can enter a lot No totally different from the shipment.Is there a way to do so ?
