​​​​​​Hi, Has anytnig  changed in that topic? Is there  any way to force the system  to  take the tool for calculations?   If we have 1 tool that we used for manufacturing several products and we have  1 work center with several resources that this tool can be used.  How can I set the system not to schedule this product at the same time?   

Hello IFS family, As we have a standard functionality in ‘Inventory part in stock’ screen to print barcode we want to have the same functionality on Transport task line, first of all is that feasible? I tried creating a custom menu for the same and stuck here, as in the process to trigger a barcode from a data line when we click on the custom menu a new barcode Id needs to be generated and stored in the ‘inventory_part_barcode_rep’ view as it works for the existing functionality. But I checked and this - ‘inventory_part_barcode_rep’ is in read-only state as seen below, so how do I add the data for triggering the data. Please suggest a way out of this or maybe a tot

In shop order operation using IFS Apps10 we have assigned the operation to 2 employees with different labor class. I found that in estimated cost for the shop order the labor cost is taken from the labor class of operation line level and not from assigned employees. how this point can be resolved?Thank you.

Fields from empty data in this element appear as NA. How to change that these NA s are 0.

Following question was raised to the IFS Support.The amount of the Purchase Order is 420,000. Progress is calculated to be 25%. However, the DOP amount is 420,000. This is 28.57% progress. Although the amounts are the same, the progress is different. The document says that progress is calculated from the amount of the object.Why do we get different progress rates even though the object amounts are the same?The monitoring amounts are different because of the different progress rates.This is what we initially inquired about. Why are the monitoring amounts different? Following answer was provided by IFS Support for 3 different scenarios.

Community, Do we have a detail report for Inventory Part Supply/Demand Details out of box? it should be the info that be drilled down to below RMB function and bring the demand/supply info about on one single report. 

Hi,Does anyone knows if IFS provides UFI (unique formula identifier) codes functionality?UFI is a code printed on products with hazardous mixtures meant to help calls to poison control centers to determine the contents.Best regards,Bernadeta

There are ways to define an employee’s default team in Shop Floor Employees by Site.  However, I have found that when you log in to Shop Floor Workbench by that team, you still MUST add people to that team BEFORE you can do any team transactions.  Has anyone encountered this anomaly before?  Has anyone developed a CRIM to transfer the employees listed as team members in Shop Floor Employees by Site to the employees on the team logged in to Shop Floor WorkBench?  

On Shop Order > Control Plan tab we turned history log tracking on for some columns. The cells that I select are populating in the Record History / History Log. This issue is also occurring for a custom field created in the Analysis Results page. The results show in the oracle database, but I am unable to find them in IFS.We turned history log on for some columns in the material and operations tabs without issue we have had no issues, history log its functioning properly and accessible via View>Record History. This is true for IFS standard and custom fields

We noticed that last count dates remain with the location after we have moved a lot batch from it. Our cycle counting criteria is to have the count history/tracking tied to lot batches. My question is, is Last Count Date a functionality of location counting only or can we somehow configure IFS to tie or link a  count date to lot batch and have that count date follow or trail the lot batch as it is being transacted from location to location. 

Hello,When we navigate in a product structure (TDC5961 for example), a data mapping error due to type mismatch occurs.The components don’t go back. What is strange is that all the lower TDC orders are indeed present but do not "retranscribe" as components. The error does not come from the product structure either, which is in "Constructible" status and the components are also associated with it. I looked on Community and they refer to support tickets. In addition, the error is random, sometimes it happens on TDCs taken over and other times on new TDCs created. Same on the levels, sometimes the upper level is devoid of components but at the lower level they are there. 🙁 We had compared the IFS 7.5 and Cloud tables and no change. Everything is taken over identically both with those in error and those without errors.The error messages are the following :{"@odata.context":"https://url_prod/main/ifsapplications/projection/v1/DopHeaderHandling.svc/$metadata#Dop

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?

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.

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 

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.

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?

We are using Aurena in IFS APPS 10We would like to allow users to connect a change request to Functional Objects that represent our equipment.  We have been able to add the EquipmentFunctional selection in the Object Connection.However, our users don’t seem to have the correct permission to query the EquipmentFunctional data.You can see the (no matches) and when find in clicked no data shows.When logged in with IFS APP all data shows and can be found when clicking the FIND optoin.   

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

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.

In Aurena (Upd 13) on the Change Request Form we are using the Object Connection to point to Equipment Functional Objects.Out of the box things are working good.We would like to be able to search via a Custom Field.  Which we can get to show but we get an error when searching. Loc is the custom field.When we search with the Loc Column we get the following error:An internal server error occurred. Contact administrator.Url: ////main/ifsapplications/projection/v1/ChangeRequestHandling.svc/DynReference_EquipmentFunctionalCfv?$filter=(startswith(tolower(Cf%24Loc)%2C%27okc%27))&$skip=0&$top=101Request Id = 730b0e63-e279-46fd-9f13-36e0e1dad6ecDate = 2022-06-22T04:11:58.200ZClient version = 10.14.123.0Any Help would be greatly apricated.

Hi, Hoping to gather how others have handled undo’s/corrections when the “Issue Inventory Part” screen is used (eg. “use count-in”)as there doesn't appear to be an undo transaction? Currently we are in APP9 Thanks!

Hello,IFSAPP10I am trying to copy work center on the right mouse button:  but i got this error message:I just checked the tab “Cost” and the column “End date” is filled everywhere. any hints?thanks

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? 

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?

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.
