Sequencing Multiple Operations in Visual Operations Planning

23.2.4In Visual Shop Order Operations Planning, I am trying to sequence operations with characteristics in a Work Center in the Machine Operations Scheduling Gantt.The documentation reads as:To sequence all operations for a resource or work center loaded in the Gantt chart, open the card for the resource or day and click Sequence. To sequence all operations for a resource or work center on one or several days, select the relevant day(s) for the resource and click Sequence. To sequence specific operations, select the relevant operations and click Sequence.For #2, how can a user select the days in the Gantt, where should a user click for this?For #3, when I select one operation in the Gantt the Sequence command is available, but when I select multiple operations the Sequence command is not available.

Lobby Element Bar Chart Order

Hi!We have problem to get a proper sorting (order by) on the X-axis in Lobby element Bar Chart.In our case we transform a date value to the string for start of the week, using to_char(TRUNC(&AO.Shipment_API.Get_Actual_Ship_Date(shipment_id),'D'),'MM/DD/YYYY') , for example 05/28/2023, 05/15/2023 etc.We are using above string format to get the order for the data.  I have also tried using year + week number and truncated date.  When I get to the lobby element I check the data source to use the data source order, but it keeps ordering by the y-axis amount.  I am doing a horizontal bar chart and get least to most from the Y-axis.  Bar ChartSo then my dates are in the X-axis are in the wrong order….??I saw there was a question exactly like this one from 3 years ago, but it did not have a solution.  It was closed so couldn’t reply there.  It looks like others are having this same problem.  Is there anyone who knows a solution for this, or is this some kind of limitation in the Bar Chart?

IFS Cloud - remove unused WC from Gantt-Chart

Hi All, Is there a method to exclude unused Workcenter Resources from the Gantt chart in production planning? Despite work centers being hidden or deactivated, their names continue to appear on the chart. These centers no longer have capacity and there's no necessity for their visibility in this context. Many Thanks,Alex

Adding Ship Loose Parts To Shipment

If we have ship loose parts (like bolts, nuts, etc.) that need to be shipped with an order (sometimes known at order onset and others not known until Manufacturing done) how can you add this to an order in IFS Cloud or at least have a notification of some sort for Shipping to know that these are required? We are on 23R1 SU10 currently.

Remove a serial number from IFS

Is it possible to kill a serial number in IFS? (Remove it from IFS completely) Only the top level manufactured part number is serialized in our system. (Lot/Batch tracking is not on, and no components used in the product structure are serialized) The serial number was built through a shop order. We have capabilities to scrap the unit or rename the unit, but we’d like to remove it from IFS completely.

Variable machine costs based off time

Hi We are introducing lights out machining and looking to get an accurate cost of our parts. We can start an operation during the day which can take up to 24 hours to complete. My question is , As the cost of machining from 6pm to 6 am is dramatically reduced is there way of capturing this cost?

Scrap on multiple Operations ?

Hello,With the introduction of MES integrations in IFS Cloud we have stumbled on an issue that is not isolated to MES functionality.Is there any way to distribute the scrap between operations.Example: Using Nesting system that calculates the best possible nesting result given the operations available.Each nesting will result in a more or less unique scrapping percentage of the ingoing raw material.we want to distribute the scrap equally between the operations so we get the issuing from stock correctly. Is there a way in IFS Cloud Standard to distribute scrap over a set of operations by selecting multiple operations or by Operation Block.With MES functionality I know that this can be handled before IFS Cloud by the integration platform, but you seldom want to create too much logic in a integration platform.Without MES functionality (or integration) we can set planned scrap and then do an inventory counting afterwards, but that sort of misses the point.

Incorrect Lot/Batch Displays in Tree of Multilevel Repair Shop Order

Apps10 UPD15I have an As-Built structure for a multi-level lot/batch tracked (non-serial) part PZ-000 lot/batch UDF-6, quantity of 1, that looks like this.I released a multi-level repair shop order for PZ-000, lot size = 1. I manually issued lot/batch UDF-6 to the order. The Multilevel Repair Structure, though, shows lot/batch UDF-12 in the tree. What could be the reason? Was this corrected in a later update?

Create Serial Equipment with all Parent and Child Parts

I want to create a Serialized Equipment Object that contains the Parent Part and all child parts from Engineering Part Hierarchy.  I have been able to create the Inventory parts but now would like to create the Equipment.Engineering Part Hierarchy was part of this post Engineering Part Navigator - MULTILEVEL to Inventory Parts | IFS Community I created this equipment object one part at a time.  I feel like I should be able to create it based on the Hierarchy. I need to create about 50 of these at different sites and would rather not do them individually. Thank You

Backwards pegging in Shop Order

Hi,We are using IFS10 update 15.Basic setup is so, that we have warehouse in different site than manufacturing is. Customer orders are entered to warehouse site and MS level 1 part is active in warehouse site. If there is a need to manufacture more to warehouse, system creates Distribution order to manufacturing site. Also purchase order and customer order between the sites are created automatically. In manufacturing site, they create Shop Order and then they do ’backwards pegging’. Sometimes, there is that situation that DO receipt date is two weeks ahead but production has possibility to produce earlier (SO need date is earlier than DO receipt date) → when they do ‘backward pegging’ correctly to SO, Why DO date is not changing ?    If manufacturing is later than original DO receipt date, then DO date is updated correctly..

Automatic Calculation of Operation Cost in Product Estimate

23.2.3I have copied the structure and cost from part A into product B in an Estimate.There is only one operation with a Mach Run Factor of 1.0 hours/unit and an operation cost of 130.00.I edit the Mach Run Factor to 1.5.The operation cost remains at 130.00.Q: Shouldn’t this cost automatically update to 195.00? I believe it did in Apps10.When I calculate the estimate item the operation cost remains at 130.00.Q: Shouldn’t the calculation update the operation cost to 195.00?With the operation cost not updating the Estimate cost is not correct.

Creating Spare Parts in Functional Object/Serial Object

Hi,I am working on connecting the spare parts to the serial objects. Is there a way to connect the Spare Part to same Parent Object cross all sites?Let’s say main part number: xxx always have the same 6 spare parts and I want all 6 spare parts with fixed quantity to get uploaded under all sites. I can see I need to put that manually every time for each site. Isn’t there a way that we can link the same 6 spare parts from the same site to the main part number?

CAMRO Partial disassembly and assembly

In IFS application complex assemblies can be partially disassembled and assembled as per the business requirement.Work scope is defined from “Define Work scope” screen. It could be defined with maintenance levels and modules and can be further included or exclude as per the business requirement.Once the work scope is released MRO interim order structure will be created according to the defined work scope.In the interim order structure, the disassembly and disposition shop orders are crated only for the selected work scope. Once the disassembly and disposition process are completed, they will be reserved in the corresponding assembly shop order along with the remaining assembly (assembly which was not included from the work scope).The assmbly parts which are not included to the work scope was directly reserved as a partial part in the corresponding assembly shop order.Final assembly shop order will complete the assembly with the partial part and disassembled components.
