Where in IFS would I go to modify how shop orders get released so that I can force a “Customer Owned” Ownership on certain parts? Is this even possible?We have an issue where when the shop order gets released the parts from below get wrongly marked as Company Owned and they need to be manually changed to Customer Owned. 

Error: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host while fetching General Ledger report. I am getting this error after 15 mins of transaction. Checked the JTA configuration. <Timeout Seconds> = 36000s, <Abandon Timeout Seconds> = 900s. I changed <Abandon Timeout Seconds> value to 1200s as well still it gave error after 900s.

Helllo,I am trying to sum all the raw(purchased) material (MATERIAL1, MATERIAL2) for my product. (According to qty_per_assembly) I just generated simple structure of L1 product. It looks like this: What i need to do is to sum the MATERIAL1 and MATERIAL2: MATERIAL1 (8,25kg) goes to part_no L4.1 (1 pcs) and component L4.1 (1 pcs) goes to part_no L3 (16 pcs) that means: 8,25 * 1 * 16 * 1 = 132 kg (level4 * level3 * level2 * level1) MATERIAL2 (0,75kg) goes to part_no L4.2 (2 pcs) and component L4.1 (1 pcs) goes to part_no L3 (16 pcs) that means: 0,75 * 2 * 16 * 1 = 24 kg (level4 * level3 * level2 * level1)  How to do it in oracle? Thank in advance.

Hello,We are producing a part in UoM = PC. To manufacture that part, we are outsourcing operations on the shop order for:transport  manufacturing processBoth are assigned with an outside operation items for which the purchase requisitions are generated upon shop order release. Those are then converted into purchase orders and upon arrival of the physical items, we receive all of them and close the shop order.Items on the shop order are in UoM = PC, Outside operations items are a non-inventory parts (paying for the service) however one of the suppliers for the manufacturing process is charging us and sending an invoice per kg for one of those outside operation items (manufacturing process)Question/Problem to Solve: Is it possible to have purchase order for this non-inventory part in UoM = kg, but receiving it in UoM=PC on the shop order? How to solve this differentiation?

We are planning to upgrade our Apps10 PROD environment to the Remote Deployed 23R2 Cloud Setup soon and I want to clarify if IFS has any restrictions or suggestions NOT TO USE Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Express with the Cloud DB.

I received this question in a private message: Can you think of a solution, on how to prevent the system from issuing new WDR beyond maximum shelf life?Example Scenario:A bag of chocolate chips is received with a 1-year expiry when sealed.After opening, it must be used within 2 months.A WDR Change - Receipt updates its expiry from 12 months to 2 months.Now, WADACO and IFS prioritize using this stock first.example: A bag of chocolate chips is received with a 1-year expiry when sealed. It stayed in the warehouse for 11 months, it has one 1 month left. When moved, the system might change the date to 2 months because is opened. How to make sure it will give only the maximum shelf life inherited from the original date?When stock is moved or repackaged, we want IFS to apply 

Hi All, I wonder if anyone of you Heroes and Doers have good and effective solution to the problem, same time not causing overloading the system.   In some cases, WDR is used to change the expiration date. A raw material, has a maximum shelf life when sealed—let’s say 1 year. However, once opened, it remains fresh for only 2 months. How to prevent the system from issuing new WDR beyond maximum shelf life? Example Scenario:A bag of chocolate chips is received with a 1-year expiry originally sealed. When a product is received in the warehouse, it has assigned an expiration date based on its full shelf life. This date is stored in IFS under the batch/lot information.When is being moved from Stores location to floor location, system will treat it as opened, and to be be 

Hello.In the multi level structure tab, we sometimes have a negative value on the qty per assembly field. What’s the meaning of this and is that possible to update the value to set a positive value?

When running MRP with the Plan Alternate Component option enabled, component part is not reflected in the MRP Part Information page tree structure and, the component part does not see the demand from its parent part. This happens only when Mutual Alternates are set up for the parent part.Environment:24.1.4Steps:Create Parts and Product Structure as shown below.   Part B and Part B-Alt are mutual alternates Create a demand for for Part A Perform Site MRP or Selective MRP for Part A Check the MRP Part Information page. Expand the tree structure you can see the demand coming from Part B in the MRP Part information record of the Part C.  

Community,Wondering where to define the Period Version in Sales and Operation Planning for Make to Stock window? see below LOV, it only shows the period defintion till 2024-12. Thank you. 

Currently in IFS Apps 10 we have multiple users that have search functions which sort the results via multiple criteria, an example of this is below,The above will show the user the stock of the entered part number in all the locations on site, the results will be ordered by the Location in ascending order and then by LOT number in ascending order, aiding the user to see the oldest LOT first.  The results would be then sorted in the format below   I am unable to find a way to perform this in IFS Cloud 24R2, I only seem to have the option to sort by a single column, are there any work arounds that will resolve this issue or is this function addition with in the roadmap?

Hi all, Can you help out how to set-up these configuration settings? We have Configurable sales part A, manufactured Sales part A can consist of B1, B2 and/or B3, depending on what is choosen. We never have B1, B2 or B3 on stock. B1 consist of C1.1, C1.2 and C1.3B2 consists of D2.1 and D2.1B3 consist of E1 B1, B2 and B3 will always be manufactured when its needed for a configuration. We don’t have stock of these.Cx, Dx and Ex will always be on stock. We have a safety stock of these, so we can manufacture them in advance using shop order reqs from MRP. Let’s say I run the configurator, and a DOP gets created. In that DOP, after release, I want to see the shop order to create Top Part A, shop orders to make B1 and B2, and a reservation for C and D components. Is it enough playing with the netting parameter on the inventory parts? Should I use supply setting DOP for more than the to

I need to delete the customer order line but couldn’t because it has some pegged quantities associated with it. To reduce the pegged quantity to 0 I did RMB on the order line and clicked on “Manual Pegging” to navigate to the “Manual Pegging of Customer Order Line” window. The “Pegged Qty” in the header section shows 24 as shown in the image below. But, in the Purchase order tab, the Pegged Qty is already 0. Initially I thought if I had some qty in the “Pegged Qty” field in the purchase order tab, I would reduce it to 0 but it’s already zero.  On the customer order line, the pegged qty is still showing 24 as shown in the image below:

We are using IFS Apps 9 and rely on the Shop Floor Workbench to clock in time for shop orders. Currently, when sharing time, users select multiple shop orders and click “Start Production” to allocate time across multiple orders with the same work center.However, when attempting to job onto multiple shop orders with different work centers, the “Start Production” option is greyed out. Is there a setting or configuration that would allow users to share their time across different shop orders with different work centers?We appreciate your guidance on this

We are currently in 23R1 and are prepping to go to 24R1 in IFS Cloud.  But, we are having a bit of an issue with our Shop Orders and associated time reporting.  We normally will set our Routings to have identical Machine Run and Labor Run Factors, and we adjust our Work Center Capacities to account for the number of people there (e.g. 1 person is 100% efficiency, 2 people is 200%, etc.).  But, with our larger projects, it is very common to have something take a month to manufacture.  And, during this time, it is VERY normal for the sites to add additional people to a Work Center for a day or two if they have some extra workers available (say, another Work Center is down for material issues or Maintenance).  But, when this happens, our Remaining Hours gets out of alignment.  For example, Person A will Start Production for the day, starting Labor and Machine Time, and then use Stop Production when they are done, totaling 10 hours for the day (say 6 am to 4:30 pm with 30

We had an issue over the weekend.  we went from Standard Time to Daylight Savings time.  From about 1AM to 3:00AM the time on our Time Clock and the Time on the Shop Floor Workbench did not match.  The Shop Floor Workbench was 1 hour ahead of the Time Clock.  During this time operators could not clock into jobs on the SFW because it said: “Start time for a clocking cannot be a future time.”  Once the actual time change occurred, this error fixed itself.Do the SFW and the Time Clock get their times from separate places?We are on Apps 10.

Hello, I am getting this error But I have checked the Routing, the Workcenter, the resource templates, and resources to make sure that they are setup correctly and they are.  I am thinking that maybe there is a company wide setting that needs to be set.
