We are trying to make our Functional Object ID (aka mch_code) be an auto incremented field.  Does anyone know how to do this or if it is at all possible?  Maybe with control - datasource or something in Page Designer?  I am not having much luck looking for help or examples in existing posts.

Hi Community. we have only a few employees unable to clock onto shop order operations due to the error message below about being unable to get costs from the labour class.the operators are in the correct labour classes and are active shopfloor employees connected to the correct site.we have recently created new manufacturing labour classes and update the labour costs and the issue has only happened since then. Other employees are able to clock onto the operation without any problems.Any ideas what could be causing this for a certain few employees? regards Jamie

Hi Experts,Can someone please throw light on Shop order  replication, which is under Site > Manufacturing Tab.Didn’t find much information in the E-Learning as well.Thanks ! 

Hi all,I am looking to implement the following sequence in IFS App10 :starting point : A is a purchased inventory part, appearing as a component in multiple finished and/or semi-finished products ; Planning method is set to either A or G, meaning part is handled on a purchase-to-order basis, and there are no parts in inventory ahead of time. step 1 : setup B as an alternate part for part A at master level (B is also a purchased inventory part) : this, I know how to do (side note : B is effectively an alternate purchase structure relative to A : A and B have the same drawing number, A has an empty Purchase structure, B has raw material included in its Purchase structure) step 2 : receive / register PO from customer, launch / release corresponding DOP order, end up with a shop order that has A as a component (all this is fine as well) step 3 (this is where I need help) : based on internal factors, we might decide we want to buy part B instead of part A for this particular shop order / re

At Shop Floor Workbench, the shop order is running, we want to interrupt it, we go to Stop Production, Can we change the default to  Ideally, we could assign a default option for the most used interruption cause too.Could we adjust the defaults? Operators 😤 “2 vs 6 clicks, need to run the machine” and they are right. Thank you in advance, 😀

DocReferenceObject Object connection transformations are not working for routing operation work guidelines to shop order operation work guidelines when the routing work guidelines have configuration work guideline rules.If the shop order is manually updated using the Configuration>Updated Materials and Operations action from the RMB context menu of the shop orders screen, then the transformation will work, and display the documents as expected. This Object transformation works fine when no configuration rules exist on the routing operation work guidelines.

Hello all, as i am starting with IFS, i am very very confused and searching for some stuff is very difficult. can someone please tell me where to find the details of the delivery notes we have received with supplier material?  thank you very much 

Hi ,I am working in Apps 9 and I have a question regarding forecast consumption. There are no actual demand for this MSL1 part on 6th, 7th and 8th month. So how come the Forecast is consumed ?   Checked in Inventory Part Availability Planning as well.

Hi All, I’ve come across some unexpected behaviour when I over report on a shop order. I’m on Cloud R23R1. In my scenario, I do not know the exact qty for the shop order,  so I capacity plan using a best estimate. If production goes well, there is a possibility I may need to over-report. I am receiving in the finished product 1 at a time and backflushing the material & auto reporting the operations. The material side works well, as I’ve ticked the “issue overreported Qty” on the components. On the operations, Over Reporting is set to “Allowed”. On the site settings I have Auto Close Shop Orders set to off. However if I have a Shop order for 10, as soon as I receive in the 10th part,  while the Shop Order stays open, the operations on the Shop Order get automatically closed. When I receive in the 11th Part, the part is received & the additional material is issued, but no operation reports/transactions are created. There’s no warning message when I click receive and select auto r

Hello everybody,I would like to know if there is a way to automatically generate several Lot Batch No. (one Lot Batch No. per position) when creating a Shop Order. The article is set to Many Lots per Production Order. But a Lot Batch No. is only created automatically if "One Lot per Production Order" is set in the article.  -->Then it is only one, and we would really need a separate Lot Batch No. for each article of the Shop Order.   Hope somebody can help me. Thank you!

I have a manufacturing control plan where I want all (100%) of the lot size/reserved serial numbers to be included in the shop order analysis. I have a question about when the lot size changes. Please see example and questions below. Control Plan Data Point - control plan only has 1 data pointData Type = Categorical Inspection Description = 100% Inspection Inspection Percentage/Quantity = 100Shop Order AnalysisShop Order Lot Size = 4 Shop Order Reserved Serial Numbers = 1, 2, 3, 4 Shop Order Analysis Sample Size = 4 Shop Order Analysis Serial Numbers = 1, 2, 3, 4 Results were entered for all 4 serial numbers.Shop Order Lot Size is IncreasedShop Order Lot Size = 6 Shop Order Reserved Serial Numbers = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Shop Order Analysis Sample Size = Remains as 4 and cannot be changed Shop Order Analysis Serial Numbers = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Results must be entered for all 6 serial numbers.QuestionsWhy doesn’t the sample size in the control plan change when the lot size changes?

Hello everyone,There is the option in the IFS to deliver items to bulk goods

The Shop Orders at our customers often have a long through put time while the raw materials are located in silos with a limited capacity.In IFSCloud the MRP proposals for the total component quantity of the shop order are placed on the start date of the order.Is there a technique in IFS to spread the supply/ receipts proportionally to the demand consumption over the lead time of the shop orders so that the silos are regularly refilled with a smaller chance of overflow? 

We are building different part #s (so they are on different SOs) to the same build process so we want to be able to charge time and execute the operations of the individual SOs at the same time. How would an employee be able to charge time between 2-5 SOs, where it either evenly splits between the operations, or splits based on lot sizes?

Hello,How can I start the production of an operation block, using timeclock interface? 

Hello all I am trying to implement a Kanban replenishment for a part from supermarket to line.when scheduling a new database task, I get an error that the production line does not exist for the replenish source. the problem is that I am not replenishing from a production line but a warehouse (supermarket). In the Kanban circuit, I have set the replenish type as location and everything seems to be correct.  

Hi CommunityRegarding the change of transaction processing date, the issue arises where the price recorded in the journal entries for manufacturing withdrawals and finished goods receipts does not correspond to the valid standard cost at the time of recording.Although it was previously mentioned that this issue could be addressed as a standard service request, it was found that even if the recording date is corrected, the cost is not updated, rendering it unusable. Please refer to the attachment for detailed information.How was the issue of the system's inability to provide specified date costs (historical costs) resolved after "Modify Date Applied" was performed in Inventory Transactions History?Thanks & Best RegardsKomine

Community, Does anyone know when the RMB menu option ‘Update Earliest Unlimited Supply Date’ is enabled? below screenshot, supplier 100201 is the primary supplier for this part. Thank you. 

Our company does creates manual shop orders for the pre-assembly of equipment based on forecasted need. Business opportunities and sales quotes are used to anticipate future need. My question is, is there a way to peg  a shop order to a business opportunity or sales quote for pre-assembly purposes, since there is no customer order created yet.

Is there anywhere or any screen, I am able to get these information for all the manufacturing parts?  Client would like to see how far away of the system calculated Manufacturing lead time compare with the average actual manufacturing time for all the manufactured parts in their system.  Thank you in advance.  Ada.

Hi,One of our customer wants to upload a consolidated forecast into IFS so it can be expanded out to show the growth in raw material and component demand and allow the Purchasing Team to see the longer term requirements for several years.This is very top level rather than at customer level by which they normally enter forecasts.Ex: My question is can we upload this forecast into MS Level 1 and derive raw material/component demand for coming periods, with/without generating supplies (PRs, Shop Order Reqs etc?Also, would that be possible to register this forecast and calculate the demand for raw materials separate from the actual forecast register for this year using a different MS level set? I appreciate any feedback you can share.Thank you 

Could you please give me some examples of Shop Order Priority Categories values?
