Work Center having different UoM than hours

Hi all,does anybody have the practical expirience with UoM different than hours on the level of Work Center? How does it work together with UoM of the manufactured part? What is the impact on the lead time? Is there any documentation on this topic (not just describing that you can fill here different UoM than Hours which is the default)? Is there any typical industry where this setup can be applied?Currently on IFS Cloud 22R2, but accepting any information independently on IFS version:), wondering what was the idea behind in RnD, looking for an acceleration and a decision (applicable vs useless) on this topic and not having so much time to study PLSQL source codes.Thanks in advance.With kind regards,Zdenek

Community,We are on APP10, UPD9. We are setting shortage handling functionality.We are expecting alert message “ There are shortage on Inventory Part XXXX” prompted when the part is really in short. But system just remain silent though we do see the part in Inventory Parts with Shortages window.I remember when in APP9, system does have this prompt. why APP10 behaves differently? Thank you.

Arrears Handling

Good morning We are currently using IFS Apps 10 and have a question of best practise when it comes to arrears handling. Our business provides engineering and manufacturing service a multitude of sectors with all orders being MTO. We process a mix of new and repeat components in large and small batch sizes.We have a current situation of having multiple custom order line due date past due (total past due hours on average 1800) which results in all lower-level supply/ demand being past due. This creates the problem of not being able to provide a realistic manufacturing plan to the shop floor departments and purchasing plans to procurement due to the fact we are unable to travel back in time to manufacture/ place an order.The planning base data has been validated, routing times, structures and lots sizes all correct.My question is how have other people handled this situation before? Do we plan in arrears and hope we catch up which seems unlikely as we are always loading new work?Do we not

Difference Unit Cost - Part cost

Hi, Can someone give me some insights on the difference between unit cost and part cost? If I manufacture a standard part, with labour and material, for the first time, it looks like IFS puts the standard cost into the unit cost after receiving (I did not do any calculation up front). This value is ok, do I need to do the part cost calculation? What’s the consequence If I don’t? Configurable parts, with standard cost and cost per config setting, seem to have that cost on the unit cost. If i make a config for the first time, IFS adds the cost in the unit cost. Do I need to do the calculate cost up front in the DOP of interim header?

Availability Check

In IFS I am being asked to make the availability check at customer order entry check the entire structure for availability, not just the top part being ordered. Is there a reason why this would be needed. I found documentation saying it specifically uses the top level only. I was under the assumption that demand considers the components already, so there's no need for the availability check to also do it. The Availability Check at Customer Order Entry and Customer Order SourcingThe availability check at customer order entry is a planned delivery date estimation based upon an organization's material constraints. It is an order-promising calculation that verifies and/or suggests a delivery date by analyzing material. It considers the available material for single-level product structures.

Scheduling in APB parts with dependent manufactured components

We are using APB to schedule shop orders. Parts are manufactured in four processes on different work centres with the different sub-assemblies (manufactured components) identified as separate parts. The processes need to be scheduled so that they are completed in time for the next part to be started. We are backward scheduling and the top part’s need date should drive the scheduling of the previous (lower) parts in the structure. APB is not scheduling the shop orders of the parts as we had expected. How can this be achieved in APB?

Standard Operations: Routing and Operation Tab ( Shop Order)

Hi, there is a question I need to discuss about Standard Operations and where and how they are used to create Operations. I’m sure I can referenced or copy a Standard Operation in Routing.However my question is: When I add a Standard Operation in the Operations tab of the Shop Order do I have the option to "copy" or "referenced" the operation or is this functionality ONLY available in Routing? I hope someone can clarify my doubt. Thank you

How is calcute the shop order actual cost?

Hi.I have a customer that have differences between the estimated and actual cost. In fact, the shop order actual cost is retrieving work center cost and labour class cost when these data in IFS are zero (I checked all the work centers and labour class). The inventory parts are valued at “Cost Standard” but never the cost set 1 was copied on any of them.Has anyone ever had this problem?Actual cost:Inventory part: Routing: Some Work centers Labor and Operation History

Capacity smoothing

We have high forecasted demand for many parts on several work centres in January 2024, with these requisitions resulting in an overload on these work centres. We are not able to increase capacity on these work centres. We have available capacity in October, November and December where we could produce them in advance. We have planning time fences of maximum 20 days for the manufactured parts. Ideally we would want the available capacity to be filled pulling forward any requisitions that overload the work centres in January. Some of the purchased components in the product structures have long lead times and will need to be ordered in July for production in October. What possibilities do we have to do this without manually pulling forward and creating shop orders for October, November and December and without using order gap time?

Restrictive Shop Order Pick List

When you create a shop order pick list it adds all reserved parts onto it. Is there a way to be more selective about which lines are include? (We don’t want to pick the entire shop order immediately) TIA, Chris.

What permission is needed to print custom fields in an Operation Crystal Report?

What permission is needed to print custom fields in an Operation Crystal Report? We have multiple operational reports printing using Crystal reports but we cannot print custom data fields. If the report view has joins to _TAB sources, all fields will print through Crystal. IF we change a join source to _CFV because we have custom data to print, nothing prints or is visible. The data is visible in the report view but not in Crystal. It is visible using the Crystal report editor but when run from Order reports the data is not visible, blank.Is there a permission that needs granted?

Split Lot

Hi, I am wondering if there is an ability to split an existing lot number into two lot numbers? So example would be that we have a part that is 25 linear meters in length, lot number 123. I now want to create a new lot number 234 for 10 linear meters whilst reducing 123 to 15. Is there a transaction or method to achieve this in IFS? Thanks
