Pick by Choice is a functionality introduced in App10, there we have the option to select the scope of the choice we should be given when making the choice. My question is when I allow this functionality to be used on stock for which the pick list has been created and printed how does it work when a change is made to the existing picking plan of that stock since the previous pick list has been already printed.

In APP9 when customers are in the “Shop Floor Workbench” screen, customers can clock in labor on multiple shop orders at the same time, both on the same resource and not on the same resource without the system asking or warning. The system does continue to clock labor on each shop order that is running concurrently, and each shop order that is running continues to show the gear icon. Question: If customer have “ask” selected under the “allow concurrent operations” for the labor class, why isn’t the system asking before clock in under multiple shop orders?

The customer is upgrading to APP9 and they are asking about the new History tab on the Shop Order. There is now an Order History tab and a Material History tab. I believe the Material History information was always available but now it is included under a History tab with Order History information. The customer wants to know that when they are tracking this Order History, how long will this information be available? Is this working with History Logging where they can have this automatically cleaned up based on the setup for History Logging or is this Order History on the Shop Order independent of that? The customer is also asking what is the impact that this additional history logging could have on our system.

The following question was raised by a customer: The customer would like to know if there is a way to include supplier material on a purchase order for an outside service. The customer encounters a scenario where another inventory part will need to be send to a supplier during an outside service (i.e. Heat treating). The customer would like to use supplier material for this, since it will never be charged to the supplier. When I attempt to make a product structure for the purchase part, I am unable to create the record for because there is no revision no (assuming this is because the outside service part is WIP and not inventory.) Is there any way to accomplish this?

I received a question by an IFS conultant regarding upgrade scripts of updating project posting types in App10 RTM. The question is ; We advise customers that ‘PRE’ scripts do not change data, and it is safe to run in current production versions of IFS when we do upgrades. But it seems that ‘PRE_PRJREP_APP10_UpdateProjectPostingTypes.sql’ changes data in the database. Could you please advise the reason that data changes in ‘PRE_PRJREP_APP10_UpdateProjectPostingTypes.sql’ are built into a ‘PRE’ script than a ‘POST’ script? In addition, can we guarantee that this will not interfere with the existing production versions’ functionality?

However, customer doesn't have the option to do that. but It does have the option to save as a template when trying to save a single line.
