MS Level 1 Supply not being consumed

Hi. we are using Apps 10. We are using MS level 1 set at Make-to-stock and have input our desired forecast, run MS and MRP for components which has generated all the required requisitions perfectly. we have then loaded and released a customer order for the MS part but when we run site MRP it does not consume any of the MS forecasted supply and generates additional requisitions by MRP creating unconsumed supply. What can be causing this to happen?regardsJamie

Can you please advise how to reflect the setting of the cost source to transactions?

Hi,Could somebody help me to set up the Cost Source for Posting type M42?I checked the transaction results on the accounting tab of Labor History and found that the journalized row posting type M42 was status 99 due to  not contain the cost source ID. The error description says 'There is no Cord part B value for Posting type 42 Control type C90, Company TS' The following are the set values: Is there something missing in the setup to properly use the cost source?Any information you could give me about the use of cost sources would be great help! Thanks,Sammmy

Machine Clocking Not Auto Stopped

Hello all, I have noticed a clocking issue with regard to Labor and Machine clocking. We have often times where a user is clocked on to a Shop Order. They will forget to clock out of the SO and simply clock out of Time Clock. This will result in their labor being stopped for the SO, but not the machine time. This is leading to very large Shop Order variances, as the machine will remain clocked in for potentially days at a time.  I have been looking through Site and Work Center settings hoping to find a way to for machine time to stop when labor time is stopped, but I have not found anything. Is there a way to set this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Shop Order issuing of liquid raw materials

Hiusing IFS Apps 10 and wanted to know if there was a best practice for issuing liquid raw materials to shop orders i.e. paints, glues and greasesWe have recently implemented the automated backflush and reserve function on IFS to reduce the requirement of stores to manually issue all material when the shop order was completed and sent to stores which was creating a bottleneck, due to the size of some of the routings material was being issues 2 weeks after actual consumption which also created a stock accuracy problem. The auto reserve and backflush method works great but does create an issue with stock discrepancy when we reserve and issue liquid raw material as each operator uses a slightly different amount to each other with is natural for this process (paint spraying)the system currently reserves the engineered required amount and auto issues the material when the operation is approve from the shop floor work bench but the operator might actual use a little more or a little less tha

Restrict Shop Order Operations a User can report

We are looking for a way to prevent or restrict manufacturing operators from reporting QC operations in Shop Orders. We can restrict this via a Filter in Shop Floor Workbench, but do not see an obvious way to do so in Shop Order. The QC operations are in a separate Department and Work Center. We do not use Team or Employee reporting, we use Anonymous Reporting. Thanks

How to Load Orders and Schedule in APB using Finite Capacity on Manufactured Components

There have been multiple posts in which the logic behind the Sched Capacity on the Inventory Part has been presented and what happens when Finite vs. Always Finite is used.This post is questioning how a user is supposed to load data into the APB when manufactured components are either Finite or Always Finite. Customer has the following product structure:P/N 100 P/N 200 (QPA = 30) P/N 200 is always manufactured in lot sizes of 8 and each shop order takes 1 day (8 hours) to process its lone operation.5-day work week M-F, 8-hour days, 8 AM - 4 PM no breaks.There are (4) shop orders for component p/n 200, and each is scheduled to end on Day1, Day2, Day3, and Day4 respectively. These have been APB Scheduled and saved to the database.I have multiple shop orders for p/n 100 that consist of only one operation.When loading and scheduling only the shop orders for p/n 100 If P/N 200 is set to Always Finite, APB does not schedule the orders for p/n 100. It is in Unscheduled status in APB, with the

Shop order Reservation priority, Earliest Expiration Date

Refer to the below scenario Site settings (Refer Image 1)  Reserve material (Automatic reservation) The material reservation has been done from the stock which doesn’t have a handling unit. Even though the highest priority of inventory automatic reservation is given to ‘Earliest Expiration Data’ as in the first image, the system doesn’t reserve quantity from the inventory having the earliest expiration date. The system reserves from the stock having no HU.  (Refer Image 2) However, when the ‘Handling Unit Optimization’ is unchecked in the site setting, the application behaves as intended. Why does the system reserve from stock with no HU when the settings are as above?

Report Previous Operations

Hello all, I am seeing an issue from Shop Floor Workbench related to Approve Op qty reporting. It appears that users are enabling the Report Previous Operations flag during the Approve Op process:From what I read in the help section, the box is enabled if the Qty to report is greater than the qty on the previous operation. This is very problematic as the default qty to report is automatically populated, which will enable the Report Previous Operations box. If the Site setting is disabled, the Qty to Report is blank, but turning this off results is By-Product calculations not being done.Is it possible to prevent the Report Previous Operations box from being enabled, or can the Default Quantity to Report be disabled at the Site, but still allow for By-Product calculations to occur at Approve Op?

Why does Lot Batch Master Expiration Date not load immediately after Production Schedule Receipt

Maybe better to ask, “how is Lot Batch Master” and the Expiration Date field within supposed to work?  How does Expiration Date load? I have shelf life setup for the item.  Looking at the view, raw data, I see Best_Before_Date does have a value, but Expiration_Date does not.I am trying to understand how IFS works.  We need to use an expiration date for our product and thought Lot_Batch_Master was the way to go.For what it is worth, Inventory Part in Stock record does have the Expiration_Date field loaded with proper shelf_life calculated date.IFS version 9.17
