When we go to approve an operation, the receive location no is prepopulated. I’m sure this was setup by one of my predecessors. How can I change what is prepopulated in this field?  

Hi.I would like to know if it’s possible to manage Safety Stock for inventory parts managed via DOP (IFS 10).I’ve tried it configuring the safety stock in Planning Data tab (Inventory Part window) but the MRP doesn’t have in account it to generate the requirements.If it is not possible via Safety Stock, Do I have another alternative?

Does anyone know if when bringing over an email into Business Mail or even from Business Mail to Business Opportunity if you can somehow separate the attachment that was in the email outside of the actual email attachment as well - so it would look something like this The original email and then the Purchase Order or RFQ that was attached inside the email brought out separately as a PDF 

Our current routings use 4 operations, one for each zone of the machine.  Management likes that we can report labor by machine zone using these 4 operations, but the planning team wants a single operation to plan by so they do not have to deal with the noise that 4 operations creates.  How can I meet this objective within IFS?Thank you!Robin

Question customer raisedWhen entering or updating Resources in a Project Activity, it will often show a message such as:”The resource xxx has no capacity calculated for the activity period.”Clicking ‘Yes’ will add the record as expected, so not stopping functionality. Why this message appears?  

Hi, I have the following issue. Please assist Issue: When a person is assigned to a Resource ID, that Resource ID should be retrieved when the employee charges time to an activity. In App10 I find that this did not occur. Steps: 1. Open Resource Group and verify that employee is assigned to the resource on the Person tab. 2. Open Project Time Registration screen and search for employee (in the relevant company ) - should retrieve. 3. Add a line on the Week tab for Activity Short Name (eg: CC002.B.20) select a Report Code - notice that Resource ID remains blank. I can select a resource, but none populates. It should populate with the primary resource the employee is assigned to.

Hello, Currently, we are using WADACO to directly issue component material to a Shop Order via Manual Issue Shop Order Part. This has been working well. However, I have noticed that there does not appear to be a command to unissue material in the event a transactional mistake has been made. Looking through the WADACO user guide, I do not see a command that indicates it is possible to do, is this correct?Any guideance would be appreciated. 

Hello,I am looking for a way to export the BOM (structure, components, etc.) from multiple parts into a .csv or .xlsx file. I realize this may require a macro. Reason: I need this list for 1000’s of parts for analytics.The list should have the PN tied to the structure (repeat the part number for each component; see column B)Example:Inputs: List of 1000’s of partsProcess: ???Output: List of 1000’s of parts with corresponding structureSee image for a basic example.Thanks for any help or direction!-Shockwave 

We have an OP part causing issues creating a HAR. There is concern that there's an issue in IFS regarding this part number (#######-###-OP). I don’t believe It should have the -OP appended to it at this point given that parts are inventory. As I understand, the OP is added when parts are sent out for Outside Processing and removed when parts come back from that processing.

Hi, Pictured is the analysis result screen in our old system. In Operation 70(It could have been something else.), when the sample size was 10 and we wanted to enter the results, a different screen opened at the bottom and we entered all the results there. Then it averages and writes it at the top automatically.but in IFS 10 it adds as many rows as the sample size and it doesn't show the results in a single line. Is it possible to do it like the old system? If possible, we would appreciate your help. Thanks,Âdil

How do I update my status in the MultilevelPromotion?

We are in IFS Apps 10 IEE.  I am wondering if there is something that I am missing to clear some of these records.  You see from the example the transactions however not sure why if only 1 location has stock, why are the others appearing?  It makes it messy.   Can anyone help me with this?  

I’m looking at implementing scheduling with the Advanced Planning Board or CBS.What is the purpose of Batch Processing in the APB? Can the results from the batch load be set to save to the IFS database automatically when it runs? Or is CBS needed for automated scheduling? Thanks,Eric    

 Can we add to the list of objects to which a change request can be attached?  I see a whole lot of part centric options but what would I use if I wanted to suggest a change to a drawing that has not yet been made into a part?  The drawing may be a document registered in document management! Thanks! The list of object connections already present. 

Hello community,We can exclude a component from Cost Calculation using the “Stop Cost Roll” checkbox.Does anyone have an idea on why the control values are not editable in my case. I should be able to chose Stop Roll Flag or Not Stop Cost Rollup, but no possibility to edit here.   Many thanks for any input.A.

What can be the reason for the Acceptance Sampling Status “Rejected”, if all results within specification? 

I have a problem getting default search to work right here. When choosing Work type to search through and filer that list it is not starting with Default search but showing always all the rows. I can get default search working in the previous window by  editing Properties but how to add default search for the next search window?  

I have a customer using Apps 10 Update 14. I’ve noticed when a part’s cost changes in part_cost_history, the rowversion in inventory_part_unit_cost_tab is not updated.  This means that the cost can change in that table without the rowversion reflecting that it’s been changed.  Is this intended functionality or a bug? Small test:Create part and give it an initial unit cost on 10/2 Change the cost on 10/3 Notice that the rowversion still says 10/2 although the cost is now updated. 

We are attempting to set up work centers for RRP in IFS. We currently have 13 Work Centers that show up in RRP Load Analysis. We have many other work centers that do not show up in RRP. To Our knowledge, we did not intentionally set up these 13 work centers in RRP. Our best guess as to why these show up and others do not is that it has to do with the basic data setup for the work centers. We have been digging through the IFS help on this subject and have not been able to find detailed instructions on how to setup an existing work center to function with RRP. Can anyone provide instructions to set up RRP for existing work centers?
