Hello,We are currently starting to work with disassembly workflows, as an addition to our standard assembly process. The aim is to receive a good that is to be retrofitted in our factory, and to track the whole process in the system.We have been able to create disassembly structures and use them in shop orders, but we now would like to have it work as what we normally do on our assembly processes.For example, we typically link each assembly to a project activity (Project/Sub Project), and in the contexte of this current project, linking both disassembly/assembly would be a way to track the overall cost of the disassembly/assembly process on the subproject.It seems like this feature is not possible for this kind of shop order (Link), is it possible to confirm it ? Many

Hello everyone,I would like to inquire about the limitations of Excel reports. What are the possible causes that prevent an Excel report from being successfully previewed in the Order Report when displaying a large volume of data?Currently, I am encountering an issue when attempting to preview data sets containing more than 1,000 rows and over 30 columns.An error message is displayed when I try to preview the report. 

If I have 2 sites, Site A and Site B, and I created a Customer Order for Site A and the DOP Header is created for Site A, is it possible to create the PRs required for the DOP to be created in Site B. This scenario is since Site B shouldn’t see the stocks of Site A, but the stocks must be procured from Site A and sent to B as a centralized procurement.Is this possible in the IFS Cloud Standard?

Hi,How to connect the cost in sales quotation lines from product structure and BOM estimate?Thanks.

I was wondering how to maximize capacity for resources on the Advanced Planning Board (APB) I’m seeing a situation where a finite resource has availability, but it isn’t being optimize when backward scheduling. For example. I have the tool and the labor class as finite and the work center as infinite. But what I’m seeing is the OP10 and OP20 are being scheduled correctly., but then when OP30 delays for 2 days later. But you can see that the tool and labor class still have availability.  Why isn’t trying to fill that void when there is availability? APB Load settings Also to note, I tried this with the Re-assign Resources and it gave similar results.

HI,Is there an easy way to copy or Export/Import the CTO configurations for a configurable parts with all the Conditions & Action including the associated Combination tables & Formulae for the definedSales Rules, BOM Rules & Routing rulesWe have created the rules in One environment and need to copy the same to another environment after testing. Appreciate your help. Thanks in Advance Siva

When multi-level tracking is required on Lot/Batch enabled parts, there are scenarios where standard quantity of a component in the product structure is not truly required to complete the produced part, for example it would OK to issue 9.8 pounds of flour instead of 10.  Or perhaps the component quantities are not discrete, rather going out several decimal places in quantity required, for example a component UOM is pounds.  And as long as the actual amount issued is close to this it would be OK.  With Multi-level tracking turned on, none of these scenarios are possible, as the tracked structure requires all the required quantity to be reserved or issued, or the tracked structure is not complete.  Has anyone found work-arounds for this? I am thinking it might require a modfication to change the validations to allow some level of tolerance around quantity issued versus qty required.

I have a Shop Order that requires an outside process to be done at a different site. I issued the Outside process PO, but nothing is popping out at my other site. Any ideas on what I could be missing?

I’m  trying to find out where the cost bucket sequence is identified in Apps10.  Thanks  Dave 

Hello all,How can we adjust the serial number sequence for serialized products?The serial numbers need to be unique, but when Auto-generate is selected, all serialized parts start at number 1.For example:Part 1 starts at 10,000Part 2 starts at 20,000etc.Is there a UI where this can be managed?Creating the first serial number manually and then switching to auto-generate is not possible due to the large number of serialized parts.Kind regards,Willem 

Hello,How can I add a custom attribut to Shop Floor Workbench page. I created the attribut.But it is not accessible from Page designer.  

Community, for new purchase part that received into stock, system does not automatically enabled the supplier warranty, this works fine for those parts that will be built onto final assembly and dellivered to customer ultimately,  but not for the parts that used in facility. any settings we missied?  we are on APP10. 

Hello, In 24R2 - MS 1 is always creating the Supply request (Shop Ord Req) considering the product structure revision based on the Due date even though ‘Use Current Revision for Past Due Supplies’ check box is enabled at Site level. With the Same setup at site level, we tried the below scenarioCreated manual Shop Ord Req with the due date as in the MS generated Shop Ord Req, it is picking up the latest revision, not considering the due date of the shop order.  Manually updating the quantity in MS 1 generated Shop Ord Req, the Product structure revision changed to the latest revision in the Shop requisition Conclusion: MS1 is not working as expected with ‘Use Current Revision for Past Due Supplies’ check box is enabled at Site level. I am not sure whether i need to setup some thing more to Use this feature for MS1. Appreciate your help in advance. Thanks,Siva 

Hi all,We work in IFS App 10, and I’m looking for a ‘get’ method ! My starting point is the shop order operations list, and I need to retrieve the start date of the ‘next operation’ based on a given operation number… there doesn’t seem to be a ready-made ‘get’ method for this, so I’m trying to find a workaround / combining a couple of ‘get’…I have already identified this method : SHOP_ORDER_OPERATION_API.GET_OP_START_DATE  for retrieving a given operation’s start date ; however, I am struggling to find a method that retrieves the number of the ‘next operation’ based on a given operation number ! Can anyone help me with that ?

I have a couple of clients in 25R1 that are using or want to use Visual Shop Order Operations Planning to drag and drop operations from a  workcenter to another workcenter;  However, we are finding a few oddities:We have resources within a workcenter that are blocked yet the resources still appear in the Gannt chart.  Why? The calendar has definite time periods per day that the operations can be assigned .  However, Gannt chart still shows the full 24 hours.  Can we filter out th enon-working time and if so, how? How can I filter out particular work centers so I don’t even see them as them on the Gannt.chart even though the work center is active?Thanks!

Is there any documentation on the plot setting tab  of the scheduling settings in the advanced planning board. I was exploring the Characteristic Code Values, but I don’t know what the exact “codes” are and what to use to make it work correctly.. I was wondering if there instructions or a list to go off to code? 

 Hello,I am in production at my client's site. He upgraded yesterday to version 25R1, and I am getting this error message when receiving an OF. Have you ever seen this message before?  ORA-01400: impossible d'insérer NULL dans (\"IFSAPP\".\"SO_COST_DISTRIBUTION_TMP\".\"COST_BUCKET_PUBLIC_TYPE\")"}]

How can I set up a purchased part to only drive purchase req’s from created shop orders?

I have several top level assemblies that consist of a few sub-assemblies. I am getting the components of each sub-asseb,ly when I print the Work Instructions but I am not getting the routing for them. Is there a way that I can :A: Have the routings for each sub-assembly show with the top level shop order. orB: Have the system link all the routings together 9Meybe with the sequesce?

I have a customer that has a requirement to send detailed cost information of their parts manufactured in Mexico to the Mexican Government.  To do this, they use an excel spreadsheet that is used to load into a customs broker system called Aranxel. The standard report, “Cost Build-Up Report - High Detail”, contains all the necessary information but it is meant to be printed; not into Excel.  The “Structure Multi-Level” display shows all the breakdowns but it does not include the cost bucket breakdowns. The “Part Routing Costs per Cost Bucket” display does not explode through the product structure. Does anyone know of a standard query that can exreact multilevel cost information by bucket?  Alternatively, has anyone developed such a query?   Here is the format used currently: 

Hi together,I got a question.Is there a specific reason why a direct transfer of eng parts is not allowed in standard for multiple positions?(mask: Engineering Revision Transfer Status)all positions are in status assigned and single position direct transfer is possible all for positionsKinds regards 

Hello,When working in a team on the shop floor workbench and an operation is started there is the option to select team members. With this option I would expect the shop floor clockings would only be created for those team members. But when Im checking the shop floor clockings after stopping the production, the clockings are created for all team members. Am Im missing a setting or can this be a bug? Kind regards, Willem

We are using control plan for purchasing receipt inspection, there is option to trigger type of manual with help document description like below:Manual - This is not triggered by any existing value in the system, instead it can be used to create custom defined triggering points and connect them to this trigger type.Given the above help description, we still don’t know how to and where to create this custom define triggering. Is there further instruction and support document for help? Thanks a lot.Semon

So we have a situation where we are trying to adjust the On Hand Qty of a part that is sitting in an Arrival type location. Somehow after this part was received and subsequently moved out of the arrival location, a very small quantity than 1 (see 1st screenshot) remained in the Arrival location and now we cannot adjust it out. We have tried doing an inventory issue as well as a count per inventory part but the arrival location does not show up as a location we can do the adjustment for. We have tried backing out that quantity from the PO which was somehow cancelled, but we couldn’t do it. As you can see from the second screenshot, somehow IFS performed a move for 3029.xxxxxx. And I kinda why the On Hand Qty that was left behind is what it is. This part in Inventory Part had the Qty Calc Rounding set at 16. How do we get rid of the 0.0000000000000001 qty.  

Suppliers have non conforming material that they want us to disposition before we receive. What is the best way to do. Would like to go through the material review board but can’t create MBR since part is not received
