Accounting transaction error : Code part Project must have a value for line IN Material Requisition

Hello,Do you have an idea concerning the transaction ID accounting error after counting per inventory part (M7 or M184) :=> “Code part Project must have a value for line  IN Material Requisition”Indeed, after counting my Standard Inventory part (ID project is null), the accounting transaction linked to the accounting M7 (COUNT-IN) or M184 (COUNT-OUT) are in error because it needs a Project_ID even if it is a Standard Inventory. The generation of accounting transaction is working for Project Inventory because the field Project_id is filled, but when it is the Standard inventory, i have the message error in the field “error description” in the inventory transaction history. It would be helpful if someone in the community can help me. Thanks a lot

Can't make a custom checkbox checkable

Hi, Community I’ve created a custom checkbox, set the enumeration and sycronized it. I’ve added it where its intended to be but I cannot check it. Somehow it is set as a ready only field and I can’t make it different. On Presentation Object I’ve found out that the custom field is set as Read Only by a checkbox that cannot be unchecked. I want to place this checkbox custom field on the Return Material Authorization Lines window, and I thought I could remove the Read Only attribution through the Object Properties dialog box, but for some reason this option is unnavailable.Can someone help me to make it not read only?Thank you!!

Apps10 Adding an alternate part to a shop order does not update the work guidelines

Hello!We’re using Alternate Inventory Parts. If, on a Shop Order, you have to use an alternate part, the work guidelines do no update - it keeps the Shop Order Material Work Guidelines of the original part. While I can obviously create an event to do this, I just want to make sure I’m not taking the hard road. I would think this would be a built-in process.

Part Revision Issue

Hello everyone.  We’re on IFS 10 update 11.  We’ve recently noticed an issue with part revisions that has us very concerned.  We’ve reported the issue to IFS but haven’t got any resolution or information about what may be causing this issue.  Wondering if anyone else has seen this issue.When an Engineering Part is up-rev'd and transferred, the most current existing Inventory Revision should be phased out and a new Inventory Revision created with a new phase in date correlating to the new Engineering Revision. Current orders that are in process such as started Shop Orders, or closed orders such as Purchase Orders, Shop Orders, Structures and Inventory Parts in Stock should retain their revision. However, we have observed that the revision of the parts on closed PO's, Shop Order Structures, and Inventory in stock are all updated. Instead of the current Inventory Part Revision with the former Engineering Revision being phased out, it is being overwritten.

Shop Order Scheduling

How do you move shop orders within a schedule?  We do not use production schedules, but we may need to move shop orders up and down for start/stop dates. Also, how does a shop floor operator know which shop order he/she should be working on next? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.  We are using the IFS Cloud.

Automatic putaway on shop order close

We would like to use the “perform putaway” function defined on the work center:  The goal is to have the system perform a putaway via transport tasks into a non-picking location after a shop order is closed.  From there, the material handlers will then move the product to a desired location.  This would need to happen for parts that may or may not be pegged to a customer order.  Other than just checking the checkbox, I am sure there is more configuration needed.  Can someone provide some guidance on how to do this?  Thanks!

Product Structure remove component history logging

Hello, I am attempting to configure the History Logging to capture when Components are deleted from a Product Structure. I have enabled the delete tracking on Component Part, but that still does not appear to be capturing the deletion. Is there a way to log this action using the History logging? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Unreserve stock reservations in bulk

Hi All, I have a case, where we need to change the inventory valuation from Standard Cost to FIFO. This requires issuing & re-receiving of all inventory part stocks since the Qty has to be zero to make the change.For issuing we are not able to issue reserved parts & hence this is not straightforward. I would like to know if there is an option to bulk unreserve all quantities on SO Reservations, CO Reservations etc. ?Any option in either IFSAPPS10 or Cloud R1/R2?

Unit of Measure column under Control plan

Hello There, Currently, I am in the SHOP FLOOR WORKBENCH window and trying to approve an operation for a specific lot/batch. Before doing so, I am supposed to enter the inspection results for the Control plan. Within that “enter inspection results” window, there is a field named “Unit of measure” that displays the value. I would like to know, if it is possible to set up “UoM” ?ora window to look at the pre-defined UoM values for a specific operation ? Looking forward to your responses.

Assign Multiple Resources to Shop Order Operation

Is it possible to assign multiple resources to a shop order operation?Example: A Shop order operation is routed to Work Center “X”.Work Center X is made up of machine resources X01, X02, X03, X04.  A small order will run on X01 only while a large order will utilize all 4 machines. Can X01,X02,X03, and X04 all be assigned to one shop order operation?An attempt was made to manage it with multiple work centers where X1 represents 1 machine, and X4 represents all 4 machines, but this skews capacity views when a resource is assigned to multiple work centers.

Shop Order Planning Alert in Lobby

Community, We are using APP10. in current Lobby, for shop order planning alert, we can only see very simple data, i.e. data from planning alert window. We would like to build a consolidated data source to display all the info, e.g. project ID, shop order no, component no, quantity short, required date, earliest planning date, especially, what the supply info would be, e.g. purchase requisition, purchase order, status, lead time, and etc…i think the difficult part is the supply info, there is no one to one pegged order info available (inventory order). in window Inventory Availability Planning this window, usually the supply order(purchase requisition/purchase order) due date would be the same as the shop order component required date.does anyone has this SQL statement already, mind to share it with me?Thank you.

Structure revision: autofill of phase-out on previous revision and phase-in on new revision

 When we create a new Structure Revision, IFS automaticaly asigns a phase-out date (“yesterday”) to the previous revision, while stamping a phase-in date (“today”) to the new revision. This seems practical but has some drawbacks:The new revision is born as “Tentative”, as we plan to make changes on it. That is why we are making a revision ;-)If the new revision is not finished in the same working day and set to “Buildable”, if it remains as work-in-progress for a while (“Tentative”), and MRP is run meanwhile,  the Part we are revising is found to have “Not Buildable” revision. And MRP considers there are no components for that part in the structure and triggers a lot of order cancellations as the materials are no longer required.  In my view, a more logical approach would be to set the Phase-out of the previous revision and Phase-in of the current revision when changing the status of the structure revision from Tentative to Buildable. That is, dates are stamped when there is a new revi

Define Modification

Has anyone used the Define Modification in IFS in conjunction with CRO? I have returned units that require to be converted to another part number and Modification seems to be able to do that. Although I have read through the help, it is not very intuitive how to set up and create a task list on the CRO Repair line to actually carry out the mod. Grateful if anyone who has done this could share their experience. Thank you.

Alternate Components in MRP Netting with Projected Stock

We frequently change parts for other parts, a replacement part,... normaly to introduce a new component and phase out an old component. A revision change, a product improvement, a better cost, etc.When doing these changes, on a product structure, we increase the revision (with the new component included in the BoM),... but we would like always to consume all inventory of the old component, so that we do not leave "obsolete components in stock" ... with no future demands.We are investigating into the Alternate Components MRP Netting functionality, and miss one important thing: The MRP will account for the existing Qty on Hand (for calculating the needs for the new components), but will not use any of the projected stock of the old component. We many times face situation on serial manufacturing, where the new component will take some time to arrive, and we have current POs of the old components on the way (that cannot be migrated/changed to the new component). That is, a ramp down on the
