Hello,I am trying to display the technical drawings for the shop order components in the Shop Floor Workbench screen.Setup is the following :Technical drawing + tehcnical drawing revision entered in the dedicated screen ✅ Documents are attached to the revision On part revision, technical drawing no & technical drawing revision are entered✅ Documents of technical drawing are displayed in the Part revision screen (source : Technical Drawing recvision) On Shop Floor workbench, the technical drawing is not displayed (on the material line of the component)❌ Has anyone find a solution to displays the technical drawing for the shop order materials ?Ideally the revision would be fetch from SO reservationThank youNB : FYI A topic has already been answered for the top-level part of the shop order :  

Selling parent part number X and the manufacturing process is instantaneous when delivering the final product. Objective:Upon processing a delivery order, automatically backflush the component inventory without a shop order being processed. The final product would need to remain with the top level sale part numberIn other ERP systems, able to issue the component material directly to the delivery order with the proper configurations. I’ve attempted phantom at the component level but it seems it still requires a shop order to process. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,How can we add a drawing file with pdf extension that I added to the inventory part to a standard or development report printed on the work order?Kind regards,

Hello Guys,Is it possible to use the variables :i_hWndFrame.xxxxx in the Custom Menu as a parameter ?My user is asking me to put some columns in the output of the Compare Manufacturing Structures but it is not possible. Then the only solution is to create something on out Intranet receiving parameters from the form. Something like this: http://172.16.12.2/test_luca/Compare_Manufacturig_Structure.php?db_sid=#DB_SID#&part1={&:i_hWndFrame.frmBomStructureComparing.ecmbParentPart1}&part2={&:i_hWndFrame.frmBomStructureComparing.ecmbParentPart2}Thank a lot !!

Hello,  We have a shop order created with structure Rev 2. We have updated the structure to Rev 3. We would like to add a repair. However, the system prevents us to update the repairs and showing this error message : Field [Structure Revision} in Shop Order may not be modified. I then check in the IFS community topics and found out about Mass Update SO Structure. I fill everything as required and I run the page. However, when I check the background job status, I have the following showing. No data found to update for the given criteria. Please help, thanks !

Hello Community!When copying costs to cost set one, IFS informs: “ Part not copied. Check calculation dates”. Which dates we must check? Via rightmousebutton we can click “check calculation date” but we are not able to solve out what happens. Any tips? (IFS9)

@ShamilkaI need as much information as possible on MPS.  We’re putting it in at a customer on 23R1.Thanks,Jerry

Community, do you know why I cannot see the ‘New’ option in below screenshot lower table? i think I completed all settings, plus GTIN 13. where I missed?  

Using Manufacturing Control plans and Shop Floor Workbench - I am attempting to use the time interval sample frequency trigger My understanding of how time intervals sample frequency trigger would work:When I start charging to my SO op (op status: Released> In Process) an analysis generates, and then once my time interval has passed another analysis would generate, and would continue to do so until the operation is fully reported/closed/time interval trigger is turned off. Not only does my Analysis not generate at the end of my time interval window, but it also did not generate an Analysis once the op was started; The Time trigger is turned on though (the op RMB> SO Analysis > Stop time trigger becomes clickable once i start charging time to the op)Other times 2 Analyses were created within 20 seconds of each other right when the operation is started (Time interval was 10 years in that situation).I don't think im doing anything different between when it does or doesn't generat

Currently, we have our Control Plans for Manufacturing setup for 1hr interval time triggers. I’m finding that this may cause more harm than good. I’ve been experimenting over the last few days, and it seems that time triggers will continue to run, even if there is no associate clocked into the Shop Order. An instance of this would be an associate completing the Setup step. The Op status will change to Partially Reported, and the time trigger will continue to run and generate Analysis every hour. It appears the only way to stop this behavior is to select Interrupted. If an associate has selected Start Production, and then stopped production with the status Partially Reported, the time trigger appears to stop. If my understanding is correct, this is simply how time triggers behave. I believe this may cause issues with generation of Analysis when associates would not be expecting to see them. Given that a Shop Order cannot be completed/closed without all Planned Analysis Cancelled or Com

Hi,Kindly how can I get a shop order detail report including cost by pat# (FG) or by manufactured lot# as I don’t find such report in IFS. some finished goods have semi-finished goods components.Your help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hi All,I am trying to get DDMRP working for a client in Apps10, but I seem to be missing something as I don’t see any data on ‘Demand Driven Execution for Parts’ window. Steps followed include;1.Run Cumulative Lead Time calculation for the site.2.Set the buffered parts.3.Run Perform Lead Time Category Classification.4.Run Calculate Historical Average Daily Usage.5.Calculate buffer zones.6.Manual adjustment to ‘ADU’ quantity (to make changes to calculations).7.Recalculate buffer zones.8.Run MRP for site.9.Can see records in ‘Demand Driven Planning for Parts’ window.But can’t see any records in ‘Demand Driven Execution for Parts’ window. So, what am I missing here? Any thoughts?

Hi,we are looking to make FIFO on components and raw material level while keeping standard costing for finished goods. Since FIFO variances posts under M120 and M121 posting type, by using SOMTRLV+/- transaction code, this affect is being mixed with other material variances.We still want to capture material variances not related to FIFO. Any advice how this could be done? it seems like im missing additional transaction code for this. 

Hi there! We want do use the average capacity of a work center to calculate the lead time of our routings. I know you can calculate the average capacity for a single work center, but we have a large number of work centers on witch we have to calculate the average capacity on a regular basis.Is there a background job, that can be scheduled to calculate the average capacity of all work centers of a site. Thanks,Chris

Hi Community, I’d like to get to know your opinion about forecasting process when using Configured Parts. Do we have any tool or workaround in IFS 9? Master Scheduling works for Part level, doesn’t support configuration. Configuration whereas determines multilevel BOM and lets you know purchase components. The goal here is to establish rough procurement plan and secure crucial long lead-time materials when there are no Customer Orders yet.  Any ideas / tips&tricks would be appreciated. Regards, Lukasz

Hi community,When I try to change the Shop Order Lot Size in the Cloud version, I’m getting the below error.This error only pops up for shop orders with the Receipt Structure only, and IFS allows me to change lot size to the value shown in lot size LOV only, which is retrieved from the Recipe Structure field of ‘Batch Size by Volume’. But when I executed the same scenario in Apps10, it allowed me to change the lot size.What is the reason for this difference between both the Cloud and Apps10? Thank you!

Issue-When connecting a customer order line to a project activity, the List of Values (LOV) shows the project activity alongside its description. However, it displays the project activity and the project name instead Test steps-1.Create Project and Activity.                                                                  2.Create Customer Order and click 'Connect to Activity' button.                                               3.Click Project.  >Project ID and Project Description are displayed.                                        But when loading values, it displays Project ID and project NameExpectation-Please check the potential for implementing this functionality as an enhancement to the system.

What windows contain Visualization in IFS APPS 10? 

What is the difference and purpose of the columns “result” and “result value” on the “Analysis Results” page?  When I type in my measured value in the result cell and save, it populates in the Result Value cell. I ask because something I measure will be at 1.0x10^-8. I am able to type my answer into the result cell in the same format as the outer max cell (5.0E-8) and when I save it properly calculates as passing or failing, but saves in the result cell as the above (0, 0.0000). It shows as the correct decimal representation in the result value cell. I want to know why it doesn't present properly in the Result cell, and why in neither of the cells it will populate in the format 5.0E-8 please

Hello , Within IFS 10, Is there a way to merge 2  pick list  lines (same part / same location) in a shop order. In order to save time. Thanks.

We are using IFS APPS 9. Scheduled database tasks run daily for Manufacturing Lead Time (10 PM) and cumulative lead time (8 PM) calculations, as well as daily MRP calculations (1 AM). A quick report for the MRP is generated and sent out at 5:00 AM. Generally, this process is consistent day-to-day, but we have noticed disruptions during weekends.During weekends, lead times for certain parts increase, affecting our MRP reports over the weekend and on the following Monday (or the 1st working day of the week).To address this issue on Monday, we have tried manually re-running the scheduled database tasks for Manufacturing Lead Time, Cumulative Lead Time, and MRP calculations site-wide. This correction ensures accurate lead times and MRP reports.We would appreciate insights into why these disruptions occur and any suggestions for prevention. Thank you for your assistance.

I was wondering if someone could explain what inventory and financial transactions result from the receipt of by-product from a shop order? thank you

I’m not sure if this is expected behavior of the Operation No field in the By-product tab in shop order, but I’ve noticed that linking it to an operation number does not change how the OH cost and Oper cost are applied to the byproduct. Is this the correct behavior? and if so, is there a way to only apply a specific operations labor cost to a byproduct? (the material is correct because it has it’s own cost distribution tab)in this example, 175237-057-R is the byproduct produced in operation 10. 

Community, I have below Kanban Demand retrieved, Simulated, and accepted. Please see below screenshot Kanban Demand window. My question is, on date 6/18/2024, 6/25/2024, Kanban should be replenished. is this replenishment automatic by system or we have to manually scan the barcode so as to trigger the replenishment order, which is purchase order as our configuration. 

Hello everyone, I am facing a strange behaviour in Instant Invoice core layout from ifs cloud.Into the Instant_invoice_item table, at line with “TXTOT”, there is a condition on the total_amount and the currency_codeExpression tns:SHOW_ZERO = 7and into the visible condition :((tns:ROW_TYPE=8)  or (tns:ROW_TYPE=18) or (tns:ROW_TYPE=28)) and ((tns:SHOW_ZERO = 7) or (tns:SHOW_ZERO = 27))To be honest I’m not sure what it means ? However the problem is with those core conditions, my “currency_code” field is not working especially on this line.I removed the condition to see what happen, and the currency_code is now “multiplied”… But no more on the desired line.Very strange. Any advice how to keep this “currency_code” on this line without this kind of behaviour ?
