I need some advice regarding capture cost sources when we copy SET 2 to SET 1. 

 What is preventing this transfer from being completed / how do we find out what is preventing the transfer from being completed?When attempting an engineering revision transfer we are getting this warning. This is preventing us from completing the transfer. When we go to Eng Transfer History this is the transfer description we have. What is preventing this transfer from being completed / how do we find out what is preventing the transfer from being completed? 

I have seen that there is already a “Component Repair Order to handle Configured Parts” topic, but is there any feasible process in IFS as of today for repairing a configured part that has once been delivered to customer?Buy/take into stock from owning customer Some sort of repair order (multilevel, dissasembly/assembly) etc Delivery to customer againHow would IFS recommend us to use the system for repairs/overhauls if we produce them as configured?/ Kenneth

Hello, I’ve created a few distribution orders to move some parts from Site A to Site B. The multiple parts were all added to the same PO/CO and all looks good. On Site B, I can see the released PO and the lines are available on the register arrivals page. Of course, I cannot receive the lines until the customer order on Site A is delivered. That’s all fine, but when I try to peg material lines on a shop order at Site B, the corresponding lines from the released PO are not displayed. Is this intended behavior or am I missing a step somewhere? Thanks for your help,Dylan

Hello,My customer has this error message when he tries to issue a reserved material line : “ The quantity reserved for part XXX on site XXX at location XXX should not be negative.” Thanks for your help.

Hello, We are looking to improve manufacturing cost estimates and cost reporting through IFS. We primarily design and fabricate custom systems with job-unique BOMs. We are not using DOP at the moment, but have it on the radar in the future. On the shop order costs page, we can see estimated and actual material, labor, machine, etc. costs. Until items are issued or operations are reported, the actual cost is $0. Thus, the estimated cost can be useful. An issue with the estimated cost is that it is $0.00 for new items that don’t have a history in the system. Even once these new items are received into inventory and there is an inventory unit cost, the estimated material cost field on the Inventory Part Unit Cost page still shows $0. Thus, other than our interconnecting piping, fittings, etc. that are used on every job, our estimated cost is completely missing. We can add a CRIM to update the estimated material cost field after material rece

I just created a new site in our IFS 10 environment.When checking the basic data in costing, I found, that UPD 21 has several new Costing parameters . Unforturneately, IFS documentation Define Cost Parameters https://server/documentation/en/Costing/ActivityDefineCostParameters.htm only describes some of the parameters.I had a look in the latest doc of 24R2 (https://docs.ifs.com/ifsclouddocs/24r2/Costing/ActivityDefineCostParameters.htm  which is lacking a description of most of the parameters as well.These are new parameters in IFS 10, or in some of IFS 10 Updates.Parameter CodeCAPTURE_COST_SOURCESCOPY_APPROVED_PARTSCOPY_SUBCONTRACT

 In Part Master Data > Revisions and Attributes>Part RevisionWas there a change in IFS at some point that auto-populates the Revision No into the Revision Text field? We use revision text occasionally for a different piece of part master meta data and now seeing a system generated value in this field is causing issues and confusion.   

Different customers ordering same Part No - but needing handling unit quantities to be different Is there a way to accomplish with SAME Part No? 

When a user who has the access to this screen tries to open it, it fails to load with this error. I have tested this with another user account with the same permissions, etc and I can access the screen and do a search. I have tried going to this screen with debug console on with the user account that fails to load it, and nothing is output to the console.IFS 10 update 21, hosted internally.Any ideas what could be wrong please for this one user? Thanks  

We are using Apps 10. We are following the guidance from a previous question in the community “Can a part that has been serialized be un-serialized later?”To start, we cycle counted out all the inventory that was in stock.We confirmed there is no stock in transit. When we toggled off Serial Tracking At Receipt and Issue we got error message “Receipt and Issue must be enabled if the part is serial tracked in inventory” So we started again and toggled off Serial Tracking In Inventory and got the error message “Condition code can be enabled only in combination with Inventory Serial Tracking and/or Lot/Batch Tracking”So we start

Is there a place in the system where the total weight of a handling unit and it’s contents are displayed?  I put a bunch of material into a drum and the handling unit label sums it up, but I can’t find anywhere in the system where that weight is available.IFS 10 UPD9

We are trying to become ISO certified and for that we need to have better traceability.  I’m finding if we turn on lot tracking, we have to create all new part numbers because the system would lock up since all the current products don't have lot information.  Is this an accurate statement of what will happen, and connected is there an option to start manually putting in a lot number for products, so eventually when we turn on Lot Tracking it wont cause issues.  From a quality perspective I want to be able to locate a finished product and digitally trace it back to the raw materials.  I just don't know if there is a middle group between the forced lot process and nothing. Thanks in advance

Hi!I have created saved search to hide some inactive work types. I can separately here choose this saved search but when choosing three dots from the Work type menu the whole long list with  comes up. Is there any way to put also the same saved search as default to the next pop up window? 

We have a scenario where a business has expired stock and they wish to perform an Inventory Control Plan to re-test this stock, prior to potentially updating the expiration date. However, when we create the Inventory Analysis, we are unable to populate the Lot/Batch record and receive an error ‘Inventory analysis cannot be updated. No available quantity exists in the Lot XXXXXX for Part No Y in Site Z’ The only way around this appears to be to update the expiration date, but that defeats the purpose of the test. Is it really not possible to have a control plan for expired stock?

This is for IFS Cloud (Cloud hosted) new implementation with IFS Cloudthey are facing a challenge with IFS Cloud Hosted environment regarding the use of Shop Floor Workbench Kiosk Accounts under Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). This method conflicts with their security policies, particularly around MFA, and they need a solution that complies with these requirements.Business Impact: We are currently unable to use Shop Floor Workbench Kiosks in the IFS Cloud Hosted environment, which is preventing us from utilizing the functions and licenses we have acquired in a secure and compliant manner.NOTE:Customer was  on APP10 On prem and Currently, they have 50 kiosk stations, each with 2-5 employees who log in using a general Kiosk Full User License (username and password) in IFS 10 on-prem, within a secure network. After logging in, they access the Workbench screen using their Employee IDs to perform tasks. Looking for guidance to accomplish this  f

Hello all, I have not been able to find the answer in the help section, or through general testing. I am trying to enforce the requirement of a decimal point in a variable analysis entry. We are currently using IFS Apps 10 UPD 22As an example: If the nominal value is 90.5, Outer Min is 90.0, and Outer Max is 91.0, is there any way to force the operator to report the measurement to at least 1 decimal place?The fields appear to be basic numerical entry fields and I do not see any settings for variable that allow you to specific to a certain decimal place. I am not sure if this functionality exists or not, but I am hoping for some guidance. Thank you. 

Hi All,according to this Video (11:05) it is possible to enable RoHS in the ECO-footprint part-information. (APPS 10 ) However, in Cloud 24R2 there is no such an option on the same page.Is it possible that this function is blocked and we need another module?

Is anyone experiencing issues with Shop Orders set to Auto Close intermittently not closing on Manual Receive?We have had a number of instances recently where this has occurred (resulting in a rather expensive assembly being received twice...)Early days of investigation currently but it doesn’t seem to be only one user/part/site and all bar two have Close Code of ‘Auto Close’We are on 23R1.10.Any feedback appreciated!    ThanksLinda

I want to change operation status from ‘Partially reported’ to ‘Released’. So I tried to remove record from Shop Floor Clocking. But it gives me “Parallel operations should be scheduled in the same direction” . I try changing scheduled direction but it is not worked. How can I remove these records.  

HiThe customer sends me materials to produce. In IFS, I enter this as customer-owned material. Then I produce it and sell it as customer-owned material and receive a labor fee.At present, the customer sent me the relevant materials that need to be repaired. As a return, I have to enter the materials, repair them and send them back.How can I deliver the products owned by the customer to my warehouse by entering a return record according to the sales order? This is not allowed on the sales item return screen.  

Dear experts,We are in the process to implement Project Budget (Forecast) functionality for one of our client who is in Project based manufacturing business.I understand that Project Budget functionality only controls Procurement related transactions against a pre-defined active budget, however, system is not checking Project budget for Purchase Order/Purchase Requisitions generating for outside operation on Shop Order releasing.Though, system properly updating Planned Committed Cost, Committed Cost for Shop Order but not updating Purchase Order related cost on project.Not sure whether I am missing some setup.​@Marcel.Ausan  ​@Buddhika Kurera ​@matt.watters 

I have a shop order that I want to unissue, but I’m getting the following error.  Furthermore, if I try to reverse the quantity shipped for an external operation, I’m encountering the following error.
