Community,We had a request from PLM team, how we could disable the document requirement though it is set up in the Doc Req Profile? in other words, see below screenshot, if P_EQUIP is set up in Doc Req Profile field, it is mandatory to upload 3 document class as listed below. I am sending this post to see the opportunity to disable this requirements though they are set up in Doc Req Profile field. Thank you.

I have product that is MS Scheduled as it is forecasted.  It does not have a ‘buildable’ structure as it is only made as by-product of other parts.  There are plenty of Shop Orders that will make this part as by-product but they are not showing up as Supply in IPAP.

In the documentation for About Disassembly Cost Calculation, in the second example it states:Gen OH = ((Mtrl1 Est Cost+ Mtrl2 Est Cost+ Mtrl2 Est Cost * Mtrl2 Del OH + Machine Cost+MOH1+ MOH2+ Mtrl1 Est Cost * Mtrl OH) * OH factor) / (1 - Scrap factor).To result with the values listed in the table for MK-DISASS1 and MK-DISASS2 of 351.94 and 234.63 you would need to use an OH Factor of 15% and 10%, respectively. These values, however, are not listed anywhere in the diagram.What should be used for the OH Factor, highlighted in the equation above?

What would cause the Structure default not populate on a shop order?  

Apps10IEEScenario: Shop order operation is for a quantity of 10. Emp 1 will complete 6 and Emp 2 will complete 4. They cannot be part of a static team (I think) because they normally would not work on the same shop order at the same time. They will probably start and finish at different times.We just purchased SFWB licenses. I am making sure we are doing this the most efficient way possible. So far I have:Emp 1 Starts ProductionEmp 2 Uses Modify Ong Op to join the operationEmp 1 uses Approve Op and changes Qty to Report to 6 and does not close operation and does not stop clockings because Emp 2 is still working on the operation.Emp 1 then uses Modify Ong Op to leave the operation.Is there any way for Emp 1 to report a qty complete and leave the operation at the same time instead of doing it in two steps as I have above?Thanks

Hi ,Could someone please tell me whether IFS Product Bid Management can be used to Service related Business to estimate the Service of the Customer Products in IFS Cloud 22R2. RegardsLokesh

When trying to change a part to Serialized not in inventory, I get a hard stop error message, Part exists on a purchase order line.  How do I resolve?

Few important concerns related to the CRO process in IFS Cloud has mentioned below.  01. The customer mentions that the company he/she sends the Part to( which was sent through the Customer Order) , would want to cancel/delete the CRO Exchange because the part has been damaged or scrapped. If so how can it be done without receiving the Part back?02. Since the Part is Customer Owned, the company will scrap the Part. In that case how can the CRO exchange status Could be changed from the customers end?03. Further He mentions that CRO Exchange created with a Part that’s "Customer Owned" and Exchange Code = “Single Swap” > Customer receives the item via customer order (dispatched quantity = 1) and “Dispatch Approved” = “No” > Via Operation “Scrap at Customer” is performed --> Qty Scrapped at Customer = 1 is there but even though its scrapped as mentioned in Point.No.03 > the CRO exchange status is still In Exchange. Note - The related concerns have been discussed and swarmed wit

We recently received a report from one of our customers regarding a critical issue in their production environment concerning a user.it appears that the issue is linked to the maximum number of roles enabled, reaching a limit of 148. Solution: I suggested to the client that reducing the MAX_ENABLED_ROLES to below 148 could resolve the problem.Problem: customer has expressed difficulty in reducing the assigned roles for this particular user.They've explained that current role structure involves end user roles, each linked to various functional roles. Changing these end user roles would impact multiple users, making it an impractical solution. Question:Please can I know is there any alternative solutions beyond maintaining the role count at 148?(Some IFS users have encountered difficulties with this limitation, and we are keen to find a workaround that ensures both functionality and flexibility.) Best Regards,Shafraz Mohamed

Hi I’m using KPI element designer it show cross mark.  In data source designer I’m using two columns current month and previous month.but the element showing ‘X’.Any one please let me know what is reason about this.

Hello, it’s possible to set field RevNo for the first default value “0” in application or I need a customization?Insert Engineering Parts, first RevisionI found the artical with info about IFS/Manufacturing Standards and there is the sentence: “ This is the number that designates a current or past version of a part or assembly. If IFS/Manufacturing Standards is not installed, the Part Revision value is set to 1. If IFS/Manufacturing Standards is installed, the value is retrieved from the Revision No field on the Manufacturing Standards/Part Revision and Attributes/Part Revision window. “, BUT I didn’t find it in my app. I don’t belive that I don’t have everything instal in my app IFS CLOUD.How to edit "Revision No" field | IFS Community

Hi! We manufacture serialized devices. Each device is programmed firmware, and the firmware is frequently updated. We want to have version traceability. We had the idea to create a non-inventory part for the software, and include it as a component of a product structure so that it can be selected in that way. However, this doesn’t seem to work. Does anyone know if it’s possible to have a non-inventory part as a component of a shop order? And, if not, does anyone have advice for firmware traceability when manufacturing devices? i.e. we want to know what versions of which software was installed when creating each lot. Thanks in advance for any assistance! 

How is it possible to revalue the weighted Average costed part?Imagine a scenario where the inventory part is set up at Weighted average and made several receipts. The part has been in inventory for several years without any recent transactions. Now the business understands the value of the stock has gone down. Is there a way to revalue the inventory so that the previous value will change and the lost value charged against PnL. This is possible under standard cost.. but the concern is how to do this under Weighted average method.

Hi, i created a costumer schedule and wanted to analyse how it appears as a forecast in the MS.Therefore i imported the customer schedule (no errors came up in the background jobs) , but there is nothing in the forecast 1 of the MS by part table. Probably there`s nomething missing in the part data but i couldn`t find out yet.Does anybody have ideas why it`s not working? Sample setup would be helpful also Thanks in advance  Raphael

Community, We are trying to use manufacturing tool to auto route the routing Alternate. my question is, how to make this happen? where the tool demand is to be set up in the origional demand, for example, parent shop order?Thank you.  

Hi All,Apps 10 - UPD14Does anybody know of a way to hide ‘other employees’ shop floor clocking's from being visible in the Shop Floor Workbench ‘Clocking’ tab?Currently, when a workshop operator views the ‘Clocking’ tab on the Shop Floor Workbench, they can see all other users clocking's. Any help / assistance would be greatly appreciated. 

Dear allI’m not sure who knows how to get a specific product general cost with the real cost, because currently we have so many cost price in system, which is the right one for the cost, if we want to have a clear cost which with current actual purchase price not with system weighted average priceor you can provide me all the different way to get the cost from system, i can analysis each way to find the one which i need. thank you in advance.standard price weighted average price average purchase price estimated cost

Hi, I wounder if anyone knows how the weighted  average is calculated? Is the time calculated since we implemented IFS? Or what timeframe is used? If it´s added manually where is it done?

Community, We have a scheduled datatask that will atuomatilly release shop order. by default, system always use “*” in production structure. what if we would like system auto pick the Alternate other than “*”, e.g. “1”, how we make this happen?Anyone know how can share your experience?Thank you.

Hi Community,I was wondering if anyone had any clever thoughts on how to somehow “link” Inventory Parts that are moulded in a family tool and always need to be ordered together even when part quantities become misaligned and MRP suggests ordering one before the other.Interested to hear your thoughts :)Cheers,Wade

Hi all, We are having some issues with part revisions and I can’t figure out the best way to tackle them. A little background on how we are using the software first (We are on IFS Cloud 22r2): We are using the engineering part navigator to build out the components that an assembly is comprised of. Once the assembly is complete, we use the Engineering Revision Transfer Actions page to transfer the assembly and its components. We use the ‘all level transfer’ so the entire product structure is transferred, including any new parts that were created for that assembly. We also have Remote Warehouse Assortments setup for service vans so they can be replenished with items when necessary. The items are moved from our main warehouse to the remote warehouses via a transport task created by a scheduled database task, Refill All Putaway Zones. The all-level part transfer causes an issue with part revisions for items that already existed in inventory. Any part that existed in inventory prior to the

Is it possible to put multiple parameters in for a lobby element like this?  

We are using IFS Cloud 22R2I’m trying to set a GTIN for a part as default. But there is no possibilty without selecting “Used For Identification”. Is there a way to change it like ;Used For identification : NoDefault :Yes
