Issue Description: Shop Floor Workbench "Identify"Environment version: IFS Cloud 23R1Details:Test Plan>> Navigate to Shop Floor Workbench window>> Type in the number 1 into the Employee box in the Identification Popup>> We would like to get rid of the List of Values that come up as people type in their badge number into the Employee Field. Here as 1002 - ABCD, 1004 - PQRS Here, concern is that In the Shop Floor Workbench screen, when an employee goes to Identify, as they type in their badge number, a list of values populates with other employees that have the same beginning numbers. We want to eliminate that list of values completely.If anyone don't want any other employee numbers or names to come up as they type. Is this possible? Please see the attached screenshots for reference. They don't want employees to be able to log into the Shop Floor Workbench as other employees.

Hi,When we close a shop order, the inventory item is being booked into inventory at a different cost from the actual shop order cost, with the difference being booked as SODIFF+ and SODIFF- (also shown as Calc Variance), and we can’t understand how the numbers in SODIFF+ and SODIFF- are being calculated.I’ve attached screenshots of the General tab, the Costs tab and the Misc Part Info tab from the Inventory Part screen, as well as the Overview Unit Cost tab and the Cost Estimate tabs from the Shop Order Costs screen. On the Overview Unit Costs tab of the Shop Order Costs screen we understand the Accum Cost figure of £8,339.49 as we can see the detailed breakdown of this under Actual Cost Details, but we don’t understand how the Calc. Variance figure of £1,601.75 is calculated.  The product has been booked into inventory at the total value of £9,941.24, so this is impacting on inventory value.I understand that in some instances the shop order looks at esti

Hi all,On a DOP Order I want to change the structure and Routing Alternate.When I try to use the action button “Change Structure/Routing” I don’t have the possibility to select the alternate. Do you have an explanantion? Thank you per advance

Hello,On the multilevel list of Engineering Part Navigator, the list was not well sorted. 

In IFSv10, do setup and factor unit “hours” costs distribute based on the quantity quoted or based on the standard lot size from the inventory part or part cost record?  In IFSv7.5, we had issues with it based on the quotation even though we manufacture in a higher lot size.  Is there a way to base all interim cost calculations based on a standard lot size to avoid cost variation for the same part? It looks like a new field was added in part cost/part cost details called Standard sales quantity.  How is this used? Thank you,John

Hi,I am trying to create a “Sales Rules for Template”, but without success.I have look also at the IFS Cloud Documentation and follow the mentioned steps.But in the LU “ Sales Rule for Template” is not a Button “New Template” Do sombody have experience with “Sales Rule for Template”?I would be happy for some help or inputs.Thank in advance for your support. 

When you receive a shop order, what is the calculation behind the scenes regarding check on the amount of material issued. I currently have the following scenario: Shop Order Lot Size = 10Material AQty per Assembly = 1Qty Req Excl Planned Scrap = 10Scrap Factor = 20%Qty Required = 13Qty Issued = 13 Despite the lot size being 10, I can over-report to 13. However, let’s say we increase the lot size to 11. I now have: Shop Order Lot Size = 11Material AQty per Assembly = 1Qty Req Excl Planned Scrap = 13Scrap Factor = 20%Qty Required = 14Qty Issued = 13 For some reason in this scenario, I can only report upto 10pcs. Reporting any more results in error message ‘Not enough components issued to receive this quantity’. Assuming I’m missing something, but I cannot see how I can report 13 in the first

Hi,Can I create a custom Menu in the Customer Order→ DOP Info.So that I can directly Navigate to DOP Header Screen → Tree Structure tab, with the TREE structure expanded.so that if we can directly navigate to DOP header page always opened on the tab “tree structure” and with the expanded tree every time ? Thanks in advance,Thean

Hello, We have a shop order with a main product and a by-product. A user is asking why the by-product does not appear as a supply on the part’s inventory part availability planning page.  Does or should IFS treat a by-product has a supply signal from a shop order? For context, the part that is the by-product is also part of the materials to be issued. Please see attached screenshots below. Any information or context would be appreciated. We are currently running IFS Cloud 23.1.7. Thanks,Kyle

Hi, Can we set the planning method in the transfer template, so the inventory part has it directly and it’s not just A? In the help, it says it does, but where? Or which field should be added using Page designer? Part Transfer TemplateThe part transfer template is a pre-defined template of inventory part information. It can include part planning information and the planning method. The part transfer template also includes inventory and manufacturing part attributes. It further includes attributes that control the transfer of alternate components defined in engineering. The template can be used in the the conversion from engineering parts to inventory parts, based on the part type. If the template does not exactly match the desired attributes, you can select one of the inventory part windows and update the information. 

When creating an Inventory Part from an Engineering Revision through Part Transfer Template , is there any place to set the Planning Method?  or Is it always ‘A’ and we have to manually change it? 

How or where is the flag for “Is shop floor employee” checked in the manufacturing labor class tables? 

Hello All, I am using IFS Apps 10 UPD 22, and I have setup and activated an Inventory Control Plan for a part that is currently in stock. I have scheduled daily checks, however, I have noticed they are not creating. I attempted to manually create one via RMB on the control plan header, however, I received an error message. I have confirmed I have the necessary permission grants. According to the help, I have completed all necessary prerequisites, and I’m at a loss as to why it would be generating an error. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!Server error messages:e5c8e3b3-a041-475b-be66-17efb17cbfcbIfs.Fnd.FndSystemException: Unexpected error while calling server method AccessPlsql/Invoke ---> Ifs.Fnd.FndServerFaultException: ORA-01403: no data foundFailed executing statement (ORA-01403: no data foundOR

We’ve noticed some strange behavior with Control Plan triggers and SO status; it’s possible to have an SO header move to “Started” (which correctly triggers a control plan) but with a certain sequence of operations (If product is issued to a shop order, the SO header status goes to Started, then if it’s unissued goes back to Released, then re-issued, back to Started again)Below is an example of an order that spawned three Control Plans, but we’ve seen many more orders with just two. It looks like there’s no duplicate detection on the start shop order trigger; is there a better way to handle this? Is this expected behavior?IFS Apps 10 UPD 21  

Hi, Are there any improvements done in IFS Cloud when it comes to importing IPC files to part Eco footprint?Currently substances and emission per unit are imported to part specific emissions but  the HomogeneousMaterial name is not imported.We have customer requirement to present emission build up include  HomogeneousMaterial.We are currently on IFS 10 but plan to upgrade to Cloud next year./Anna

I am using an assortment to create parts on other sites and I have set the default for DOP Netting = Netting.However, when I go to Inventory Part it is set at No Netting.What factors affect Netting that may be causing the system to override my default value?

Hi,We produce chemicals and each part has its Product Structure and some components-part type for these are Purchased (raw)-have alternante components. We use the screen Simulate Material Availability though we can’t seem to view the availability of the alternante component and there are no options to change one component for its alternante and view the overall availability. Cheers !

Hi Team,Is it any option available in IFS to restrict the user to do changes in the shop order lot size ? Other than custom event and screen properties. 

Customer needs to have a permission set for each tools in the attachments toolbar :1 permission set for Approval Process1 permission set for Corrective and Preventive Actions1 permission set for Documents1 permission set for Non conformance Report1 permission set for MediaWith that structure of permission sets, they can manage the access to the attachments toolbar for each user and what tools they will have access to. But they are getting an error when we trying to build that structure. As an example the permission set for Approval Process :To use the approval process they have granted the permission for the below the activities. But when they open the approval process tool, they are getting the below security error and you can also see that they have access to the corrective and pr

Hello, I have one question regarding APB/MSO.When MSO will replace APB, will APB functionality still be available on environment (just won´t be supported anymore?), or will be APB functionality no longer available to our customers.This should happen during R2 release. Thanks a lot for any usefull answers. 

Why is there a gap between the start date of a parent DOP Order and the finish date of its component DOP Order?24.1.1Site Mfg. Calendar = 24/7 with all dates generated through 2030.Site Picking LT = 0.Each Work Center uses calendar 24/7 (1440 minutes/day) with capacity calculated through 2/15/2025.Each Work Center has only one resource, valid from 1/1/2020.All QPAs in every structure = 1.All lead times have been calculated (manufacturing, purchasing, cumulative).DOP Header is for 10,000 lb and is the only source of load for these work centers.DOP Structure has been created but not released.Each part consists of only one operation in a part-specific work center running at 1000 units/hour, so each level takes 10 hours.CRP has been performed.DOP Structure, all levels shown are manufactured parts.

Hi!We are having a problem when trying to create inventory parts for a new sales site, with the type code Purchased(raw).The master part is configurable, and it is manufactured on the manufacturing site.The manufacturing site has the inventory part created with type code manufactured.Routing heads and configuration structure heads are removed, so should not be an issue.When i try to create the inventory part for the site i get the error: We are running IFS Cloud 24.1.1.  

Hi All, I’ve been looking at a scenario where Master Scheduling is being used in conjunction with Order Gap time, but I’m struggling to understand the logic of how MPS is generated.  I’ve set up a simple example in my test environment (24R1) to demonstrate: Max Lot size = 10Order Gap Time = 1 (just to simplify - in reality this would be different hence why rate by period hasn’t be set up)Test 1 - Works as I would expect - the MPS generation stops at the PTF, so the system cannot keep the Projected balance positive and an Action Message is generated. Test 2 - However, if I split the forecast into 2 overlapping periods, the Order Gap time rule is ignored and multiple MPS/SORs are generated on the same day and the project balance is now always at 0 or above.
