Hi All,My understanding is that in a recipe structure where all parts are added in kg and Enter by is Qty weight UoM the Quantity per assembly is the quantity required of each Part in the structure for 1kg of the parent part.However, I have come across a structure with the same settings as above where the quantity per assembly total is 6.4. I can’t see how this has been created, and can’t recreate anyone have any ideas?Thanks

Apps 10 Manufacturing Control plan line - Attribute Data Type - Inspection code C- Sample quantity 1. When entering Analysis results, why are you forced to enter a value in the Nonconformities (np,p) column, when you only want to track Nonconformities (c, u).  # Defects in the sample, not # of items with defects.  Do you have to uncheck the SPC checkbox? 

Hello, I am hoping to clarify my understanding of Work Center capacity. Currently, we setup all Work Centers as Infinite Capacity (on Sched Capacity). We run calculate capacity and the WC Capacity tab populates.Given that the work center is defined as infinite capacity, does that mean the WC Capacity dates are not relevant to the Shop Order scheduling? As an example, one of our WCs calculated to 8/31/2023 on the WC Capacity tab, however, we are not having any issues with releasing Shop Orders against the WC beyond 8/31. My assumption is that this is due to the WC being defined as Infinite Capacity.  

The case is, that when a MRB case is created for a specific lot/batch on a Handling Unit in the Inventory Part in Stock view,  and you want to disposition the lot/batch , you wantt to split the lot/batch on two Handling Units in order to create two different disposition lines, where a part of the lot/batch can be used as it is, and the other part needs to be scrapped. It is possible to split the batch on two handling units on the inventory part in stock view, but it is not having any effect on the MRB Case, it looks as though the hole lot/batch is still on the same handling unit. I cant refresh or update the MRB case in any way. 

​Hi,I am trying to set the budget in demand planner in Cloud23r1 by executing the job set budget base The help text states that this should copy the adjusted forecast to budget, which is what I want“System EffectsThis job causes the adjusted forecast to be copied to the budget line for all parts, so after this you will have a budget value on all parts that are based equal to the adjusted forecast of all parts.”However the job seems to be copying the system forecast rather than the adjusted forecast

i have created a new work centre and ran CRP but keep getting the same ERROR message ShopOrderScheduler.NOAVAILABLERESOURCECRP: No resource available on work centre PW4P1 when scheduling load source and order MRP/50168738/*/ operation 50 with finish date 20/07/2022.i have tried to change the Start date of the resource capacity from the resource navigator but get anther ERROR message (below) caused by operations loaded in this timespan. cannot delete!How do i resolve this issue?regardsJamie 

Hello.Is there a way to enter an expiration date in the count per inventory part screen?For certain articles, the expiration date is mandatory.Thanks

Hi, For the shop floor workbench, we have the option to display the remaining operation quantity in the approve operation dialog.This can be enabled on the site screen. I would like to have the same feature for the shop floor time clock. Is this possible? 

When customer tried to credit invoice , the project transactions get stuck in corrections status Intermediate. When checking the created project transactions, there are two transactions. On is in Intermediate state and one is in Corrected state. How to process this and get the transactions get corrected?

We are currently exploring if using Barcodes against our inventory is something we want to develop. Does anyone know how I can access some Tech Docs regarding how to set up and what Tech Requirements there are? Thanks,

Hi!We created a new cost element and it is used in cost bucket already. Then we find we need change the description from Finish to English. Seems it cannot be changed. How can I change it? Update it from Oracle database directly? If update DB, is there other table field need change together also?We use IFS 8.  

It is known that SODIFF-/+ transactions are generated in several scenarios. This is an attempt to kindly invite experts to identify scenarios which triggers SODIFF-/+ transactions in IFS in this forum to make it widely enable.

Dear all,The Finish Date of Shop Orders are being changed by the user PPCSGP (that only have access to Shop Floor Workbench).At the exactly same time the Shop Floor Employee registers the operation and makes a workcenter change the Finish Date is changed by this user (only in some cases).There are no events created by us that can make this change.What could be causing this? Before, this did not happen.Best regards,Luisa Quintas

Hi at all,did somebody has expirience with the Job “Run Simulation” in “Kanban Demand”?I had till now not found any information or explanation about this topic?And if I do this in the Cloud Environment it is not quite understandable.Thanks for your supportMilanko

I need to turn on assistant window in Aruena. How to do it? 

Hi all,I am trying to solve for the following scenario.We ship out two components to create part-r: This is easy I created a purchase part for part-r with the two components underneath that get shipped to Supplier ABC. Once the part is manufactured ABC ships Part-R to Supplier 2, DEF, for painting. Also easy as it is a direct ship that gets auto delivered when I receive direct from customer order. DEF paints part and ships back to us under part-M. I am unsure of how to do this and keep the history. Receive part in as original part-r under RMA then open shop order and change part to part-m? Any suggestions on how to solve for the third item on the list would be greatly appreciated.

Is there any function or assistant In cloud version that allows to replace one manufacturing tool by another one in all the routings using it ? Or is it planned in the future ?

Hey guys, Have you also experienced some discrepancy between manufacturing visualizer and the table content? For example the filter is set to only include work centers 23 and 24. The machine productivity chart follows those filter criteria but the labor productivity (bottom bar chart) does not. It includes further work centers which were not selected in the filter criteria in the first place.  Any explanation for that? Thanks 

Question regarding this explanation - Time Interval - When the routing operation reporting is started, this trigger type creates an analysis automatically according to the defined time interval for the routing operation number of interest, for instance, Once Every Hour. This will continue until the production is finished. Analysis will only be created during work hours.What does during work hours mean? And what happens when you produce one serial part per shop order (qty 1) and you want to do an analysis once per day? and produce 5 of the serial parts per day, so 5 shop orders and your shifts are only 8 hours long?  so will the once per day analysis be automatically created every day, or will it only happen once 24 hours of working hours are logged which could be once every three days?  I have tested this and I don’t understand the logic, it seems to be creating more than one analysis per day. 

Is there a way to view Supplier Material for Purchase Order line after the Purchase Order is closed other than in Inventory Transactions History? I’m specifically looking for the lot-batch number for traceability.  Thanks!  

Hi,As per my understanding "All parts cost calculation" function is executed for structure alternate ‘*’ and routing alternate ‘*’. It does not consider other alternates.Our customer wants to calculate part cost for different alternates. For example structure alternate ‘1’ and routing alternate ‘1’.  This is possible for single part structure from ‘All levels part cost calculation’, but this is not practical to do manually becasue there are many number of parts that customer needs the calculation and also they need the calculation daily.   Also customer wants to copy this to cost set 1. Even though it is possible to manually do this from ‘All levels part cost calculatio

Hi, In our shop orders, the last operation is not mandatory. Based on how the previous operation went, we might need to do it or not. It’s the operator himselve who decides, on the spot. How can we easily do this with the shop floor workbench? Ideally we would have the option to close the operation and in the same time, the shop order and receive the material. The last operation can be just closed. Any idea?

Tried everything, and analysis is not getting created automatically when variable result status field is out of specification, or partly within specification or when attribute result status has existing nonconformities.  Set part/site to mandatory and then not mandatory.  What am I doing wrong?  using apps 10 IEE.

Hello everyone,  What is the purpose of the ‘Alternate Tool ID’ field on the Manufacturing Tool screen? We have tried to use it so that when our main tool is down APB would use the alternate tool ID for scheduling, but we have been unable to get this to work. Additionally, we were wondering if the alternate tool ID could be used for overflow demand (if we need to produce 100 parts could the alternate tool ID be used along with the main tool ID to speed up production)? We are currently on Apps10 UPD12.  We appreciate any help!

IFS version 10 (update 8).Hi I am trying to create an event on "Release DOP" action.That means, when user releases DOP (on "DOP Head" -> RMB-Release All), than the event should insert data to myself created table "agapp.ag_approve_col_hist" (different schema, not ifsapp) about approval proces on "Customer Order Line" that DOP is connected to. I have created and tested sql code in sql developer and everything is working fine. But as soon as i put exactly the same code (only particular dop_id in pure sql is in the event action parameter &NEW.DOP_ID) into the event action, the system gives me error in "Background jobs" Any suggestions??Thanks a lot.Jan Details;SQL (ok in sql developer):DECLARE   key_ref__ VARCHAR2(32000) := NULL;BEGIN    for i in (            select * from ifsapp.dop_demand_cust_ord
