I am using IFS10 Aurena I have an Engineering Part Hierarchy created in Engineering Part Revisions.  I want to move / copy / push the entire Hierarchy to inventory parts.  21 Total Parts.Can this be done all together or do I have to do each part individually? 

I want to create a Serialized Equipment Object that contains the Parent Part and all child parts from Engineering Part Hierarchy.  I have been able to create the Inventory parts but now would like to create the Equipment.Engineering Part Hierarchy was part of this post Engineering Part Navigator - MULTILEVEL to Inventory Parts | IFS Community I created this equipment object one part at a time.  I feel like I should be able to create it based on the Hierarchy. I need to create about 50 of these at different sites and would rather not do them individually. Thank You

HI everyone,Need your help on export control parameters.How to classify a SFPP which is not export controlled ? because as soon as we add a new line in the export control tab and select “no” as export controlled, the 3 fields below highlighted are mandatory. I do not understand why the logic is not the same than on the master part.🤔Thanks in advance

dear all,i want to create new field in ifs10. how can i revised below query for read only select expression, SELECT ipis.QTY_ONHAND - ipis.QTY_RESERVED eldeki_miktar fROM PURCHASE_ORDER_LINE_ALL pola RIGHT JOIN INVENTORY_PART_IN_STOCK_UIV ipis ON ipis.project_id = pola.:project_id AND ipis.part_no = pola.:part_no and ipis.activity_seq=pola.:ACTIVITY_SEQ and ipis.CONTRACT=pola.:CONTRACT  ps: Below is the screen where I will make this development. 

Hi, Our operations user completed a serialized structure with serialized components but did not assign the component serials to the correct assembled serials. Now all the finished goods are not properly recorded. How can we rearrange the as built structure to show correctly?

23.2.3I have copied the structure and cost from part A into product B in an Estimate.There is only one operation with a Mach Run Factor of 1.0 hours/unit and an operation cost of 130.00.I edit the Mach Run Factor to 1.5.The operation cost remains at 130.00.Q: Shouldn’t this cost automatically update to 195.00? I believe it did in Apps10.When I calculate the estimate item the operation cost remains at 130.00.Q: Shouldn’t the calculation update the operation cost to 195.00?With the operation cost not updating the Estimate cost is not correct.

Hey all,I’m new to Quick Reports so I don’t fully understand the error message.  How do I add a Join?  I’ve done some searching here and through Google Search and can’t seem to locate a fix.Thank you all for your help!Robert  

23.2.3I have an Estimate Version where the Base Currency is USD and the customer Currency is GBP.The valid currency rate for Currency Rate Type 1-Normal (Ref Currency Code = USD) for GBP is 0.7522, Conversion Factor = 1.In this Version ,the Calc Sales Prices look like this:What is the formula for calculating the Sales Price in the Customer’s currency? 

Hi,I am working on connecting the spare parts to the serial objects. Is there a way to connect the Spare Part to same Parent Object cross all sites?Let’s say main part number: xxx always have the same 6 spare parts and I want all 6 spare parts with fixed quantity to get uploaded under all sites. I can see I need to put that manually every time for each site. Isn’t there a way that we can link the same 6 spare parts from the same site to the main part number?

In IFS application complex assemblies can be partially disassembled and assembled as per the business requirement.Work scope is defined from “Define Work scope” screen. It could be defined with maintenance levels and modules and can be further included or exclude as per the business requirement.Once the work scope is released MRO interim order structure will be created according to the defined work scope.In the interim order structure, the disassembly and disposition shop orders are crated only for the selected work scope. Once the disassembly and disposition process are completed, they will be reserved in the corresponding assembly shop order along with the remaining assembly (assembly which was not included from the work scope).The assmbly parts which are not included to the work scope was directly reserved as a partial part in the corresponding assembly shop order.Final assembly shop order will complete the assembly with the partial part and disassembled components.  

Hello, where can I find this page in IFS CLOUD?  

Hi all,I am trying to setup master scheduling in IFS Cloud and I want to define the planning time fence (PTF) based on the cumulative lead time calculations of IFS. The PTF is entered as work days in the master scheduled part.When I checked the cumulative lead time calculation results of different bom levels, I realized that IFS mixes up the different lead times for manufactured and purchased parts.Example Bom:Manuf. Part A (Lead time = 50 -> work days based on our calendar) Purchased Part B (Lead time = 14 -> calendar days) The result will be a cumulative lead time of 64 days. This result is neither correct for work days, nor for calendar days. How is everyone else handling this problem?Thank you

We have old Change Request Types that are no longer used or valid for our company, but they’re still tied to old records that we aren’t going to delete. Can functionality be added to the Change Request Types screen similar to every other basic data screen in IFS to be able to set them to hidden or blocked so they don’t show up in our list of values?

I know we can get variances by cost bucket for the shop order as a whole but how can we determine estimated to actual variances by material line and operation. I cannot seem to find a standard report to provide this, In the past, i suggested that a report or query be developed using shop order material history shop order operations  history and shop order labor history to gather the actual costs and line them to the shop order material records and operations to get the estimated times and quantities required. Does anyone have any other options for performance reporting on shop orders? 

For reasons we do not understand, we have a shipment that appears in IFS as not shipped. But it has physically been shipped (not in IFS), invoiced (in IFS) and paid (in IFS).Now we have 422 parts left in the “Inventory Parts in Shipment Inventory”, all linked to shipment 94! Shipment 94 is a consolidation 21 different customer orders all meant for the same customer in one huge shipment.First thought was to simply scrap the parts for each line of the “Inventory Parts in Shipment Inventory” that should no longer be there but we get the following error message: If we try to return the part in inventory (we could then do a cycle count to 0): we get this error message:We Make-to-Order but we should at least have the one part that is supposedly still at our shipment location!What can we do to get those parts out of “Inventory Parts in Shipment Inventory”? 

We use the Time Clock and the Shop Floor workbench in IFS.  Our operators clock in on the Time Clock and then clock into and out of jobs on the shop floor workbench.Sometimes the operator is clocked into a job for several hours but the Duration is reported as zero.  What can cause this?  

Dear Community,The screen “tool usage report” (IFS Cloud 23.2.2) analyzes the tool instances usage reported only when performing a shop order operation. I thought that this screen listed all the usage even in an analysis result 😕So, I would like to know if there is an other screen or a way to identify the tool instances used in the quality analysis as this information is stored in the data point inspection results. Thanks for your helpCarole 

Hello, I am hoping to clarify something with regard to Phantom part settings. If you use the Phantom Planning Method or set the part on a product structure to Phantom Consume, that means the part with backflush components of the part if none are in stock, correct? As an example Sub Component 123 is made of parts 321 and 456. If you set PN 123 to Phantom or Phantom Consume on the product structure of the part it goes into, if you have nothing in stock of 123, it will backflush 321 and 456 if they are in stock?will IPAP continue to show demand for part 123? I am seeing that it does in both instances (Phantom and Phantom Consume settings).Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Using IFS Ver 10 Update 14 - I need some tips on how to get better at managing and seeing shortages. Quantity Short populates only when a part is reserved with the insufficient quantity available to support the reservation populating the shortage field.  This shortage quantity will remain there until the part is re-reserved at a later date with the appropriate Quantity Available - shouldn’t shortages automatic as parts arrive, or become pegged?  I find many instances where will add parts to a BOM, but do not proactively reserve it because we’ll see 0 available, and expect MRP to take over to work the demand/ populate the shortage.  We may consider it a shortage, though IFS doesn’t - and if MRP drives the demand, it won’t carry back any dates to get that visibility in the task materials via PR/ PO fields - shouldn’t this be a core behaviour to establish relationships between task and MRP demand - if not is there a best way to connect MRP driven PR/PO information back to a task so end us

we have  an error when editing shop floor clockings.We are trying to change start or stop time with chinese users , but the error message is “can not be a future date. no error with the exact same dates with english users. 

Hi ExpertsSeeking your inputs on the below DOP challenges.Currently DOP doesn’t allow to create a Request for Quotation from the generated PR’s, this block the Quotation Process. 1A. What is the reason for this ? 1B. What is the alternative to create a RFQ within DOP. DOP Netting Has 3 Different Options, Inventory , Dop Sourced and Invontory Sourced. 2A. In What sequence the Reservation takes place when all the 3 are Enabled. 2B. Do we have any set up to change the sequence of Netting when all the 3 are enabled.You input will greatly helps.Thanks ! RegardsLokesh

Is it possible to check my entire production output quantity in the inspection plan with data type Categorical? In other words, to have an entry for each piece in my shop order that I can set to ok or not ok? Same as in the data type Variable?   

How would you apply an emergency license code for Apps 10 please once locked out as license has expired?

Hi IFS Community,does anyone have experience of creating a new WADACO process to receive Production Schedule Line?If possible, could you briefly share your experience with the implementation or configuration of the Cloud?Alternatively, if this is not possible for some reason, then another way to receive PS using a scanner?Big thanks, David

I've been trying to use asset design and project functionalities to create structures that can later be converted into equipment structures for maintenance purposes.The business case is a company that needs to have default equipment structures that serve as template without referencing particular serial parts, and, that unlike serial of funtional structures, can be easily copied with all of their components. I've been trying to understand which steps are needed to create design object structure and later convert it to an equipment structure. Does someone know what I could be missing?
