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)?  Thanks!Mark 

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

Hi Guys,    Kindly let me know  that how can see lobby in your mobile.   

Where can i fill the List of values for signature in the screen move serial object?

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
