Error "Error in SetManufactureStructureStatus- Item_num:4712032 Error:ORA-20110: ProdStructAlternate.NO_COMP: An Alternative without Components cannot be promoted to Buildable."

We have automation to create part numbers based on templates. I’m creating new parts based on the template setup and receiving this error “Error in SetManufactureStructureStatus- Item_num:4712032 Error:ORA-20110: ProdStructAlternate.NO_COMP: An Alternative without Components cannot be promoted to Buildable.” I’ve looked to see where I can add components to the alternative but can’t see where there even is an alternative. Has anybody seen this before?

MRB – Receipt Cannot be Processed Error

I’m interested in learning how other members of the community are managing MRBs (Material Review Boards) for subassemblies. Currently, we are encountering a hard stop error whenever we attempt to consume a subassembly part that is associated with an open MRB into the parent shop order. The error message reads: "Component part serial 'part number/' exists in an open MRB case; receipt cannot be processed."While we are able to issue the component to the shop order, we are unable to complete the shop order receipt due to this issue.For context, the MRB pertains to a limited subset of impacted parts, not all parts of that part number. Additionally, these parts are both serial and lot-tracked, but it seems the MRB screen does not support the use of unique identifiers. We’re currently on Apps 10.Any insights or best practices on how to handle this situation would be greatly appreciated.

Prevent shop order / Inventory from shipping

We have shop orders in process that will be completed but cannot ship until quality approves shipping. Inventory is lot tracked. We cannot put availability control on the lot because the shop order is still in process. What is the best practice to prevent a shop order from shipping when it is completed? Can availability control be setup ahead of time so that when the shop order is received into inventory, there is a control on it?  Regards,Eric

Shop Order Operation Modify by user ID

Hi All,In our work with shop orders we are not assigning employees or teams to the shop order operations but we would still like to see who is completing the operation. I do not see a record of the modify user or am I able to find a way to track this using the history log. Any ideas? Thank you.

Reserve from stock, but only issue from inbound/specified locations

Hi, In our current process, we reserve materials in the warehouse (picking locations). The warehouse worker moves those reserved goods to the production floor with a transport task (which is inside a warehouse task). The operator issues the materials and starts the shop order clocking. We want to make sure that the operator can only issue after the warehouse worker has finished the warehouse task. So he should only be able to issue from the inbound or specified locations (not from the picking locations).Is this possible?

Not possible to Change Delivery Address on Customer Orders

Good afternoon,After updating versions from 23.2.1 to 23.2.9 I am not unable to edit Delivery Address on the Customer Orders (but on the Customer Order I can do it). Our colleagues used to change Delivery Addresses on the list view instead of single Customer Order page. Is it possible to change the behaviour of this Delivery Address field to being editable? I have tried it with page designer and I can edit the value, but the Save button does not appears and I can not save the change of the address, after refreshing page it’s not being saved. The screen from Customer Orders after change the Delivery Address the Save button does not appear Should I change something more to Save the changes of this field?

Auto login to IFS IEE client with Oracle accounts

We are looking to simplify the login process for our manufacturing shop floor computers.   Our plan is to have the clients launch from this link to bypass the IFS Landing page https://ifsserver:49080/client/runtime/Ifs.Fnd.Explorer.application   My question is, can you pass login credentials to the IFS IEE client so it auto logs on?  The only use for these workstations, will be Shop Floor Workbench.

MS Level 0, MS Level 1, Sales and Operational Planning

Can someone please explain how MS Level 0  and "Sales and Operational Planning" interact with each other . I found an option to export the forecast to MS Level 0 . What is the purpose of this ?. This is to disaggregate the forecast to connected MS level 1 Parts  and to plan the actual Manufacturing/Purchasing? If this is the case what is the point of importing the  Demand Planner Forecast ? Or to simply Calculate the RRP load ? How the operational plan affects the actual Manufacturing/Purchasing?

Custom Attributes for 'Print Pick Lists' in IFS Cloud (23R2)

We are currently working with IFS Cloud (23R2) and have a requirement to add an additional column to the ‘Print Pick Lists’ window by creating a new custom attribute. However, we have encountered an issue: we are unable to locate the entity ‘PrintPickList’ or the corresponding LU in the ‘Entity Configuration’ window. Additionally, we attempted to create a new entity named ‘PrintPickList’ in the ‘Entity Configuration’ window, but encountered an error during this process. Could you please clarify if it is possible to add custom fields to the ‘Print Pick Lists’ window? If so, could you provide guidance on how to achieve this?Alternatively, is there a possibility that this functionality has been disabled for this specific window?

First article inspection

Hi I was wondering if there was a standard process for dealing with First Article Inspection. I was hoping for something that would inform users when a product is finalized and the shipment is coming in. Thanks.

Overlap error for Shop Floor clocking

Hi, When 2 separate employees are trying to report to a same shop order operation from Shop Floor Workbench at the same time, one employee is getting the below error.There can be situations where more than one employee will be working on the same shop order operation at the same time. Therefore, it seems that this error is not quite that much valid.Is there any way we can avoid this error, and allow more than one employees to report the same shop order operation at the same time ? Thanks,Thushitha

Generic Material Request - Pick - Transport from warehouse to target location

I think in discrete manufacturing industries, there exists a very similar requirement as described in https://community.ifs.com/ideas/shop-order-material-transport-tasks-53431 . We are an industrial equipment manufacturer with several hundred employees in the shop.The shop is very diversified, with welding, machining, inhouse assembly of mechanical, hyddraulics systems or electrical control cabinets.The different types of shops are in different buildingsAll shops are structured with several workcenters. Every workcenter is a collection of several physical workstations.The warehouses are also distributed in a range of several km.Same parts can be stored in multiple different warehouse segments, sometimes close by the requesting shop, in the main warehouse or even in the outdoor storage.Due to this structure of shops and warehouses, we have implemented a CRIM to support the process as described in this idea.Process:in general: request - pick - pack - transport (+issue) - receive(+issue)

Transport tasks for shop order

Hi, We would like to ‘pre-pick’ materials: for certain shop orders, all materials needed should be moved from Location A to location B. The actual picking happens after that: We pick from location B and the material goes to WIP (=issued) How can this be done? Can we easily create for example transport tasks to move all materials for a shop order/shop orders from location A to location B? Thanks!

Is it possible to Limit specific part number to be moved to shop floor location?

Hello everyone,I've reviewed the available topics and I'm unable to find a clear answer to a question I have. We have a list of 24 items that we need to use as Non-BOM items. I would like to know if there is a way to prevent those parts from being moved to Shop Floor Inventory locations. I only want those 24 items to be restricted from those locations.It would be great if there was a way to set limitations in the inventory part/product structure or at the inventory location level. However, I would be satisfied if I could have some form of AVID set on those parts to limit their movements to shop floor locations. Thank you very much for your help.
