On release of a customer order, a Pick List is automatically printed. We want to stop the system printing this Pick List only for 1 order type. However, we still want the system to automatically print the invoice and delivery note. We do not want to make any changes that effect any other Order Types. How can we configure this behaviour for this order type? 

We are on IFS 10. We have historically been an ETO business and used engineered parts and projects. We are working to launch some CTO offerings where we will use the configurator and potentially DOP. DOP seems to be the recommended process when using the configurator. There are some strong opinions of DOP within our group, both positive and negative. We don’t want to have purchase orders pegged, but it would be great to have shop orders pegged. What is the best way to go about accomplishing that without having to manually set pegging preferences for each line on a DOP structure? 

Hello,I have a database of Routing Operations and Work Guidelines that I would like to delete since we would like to migrate new data. What is the best practice to do so ? Should we delete first the guidelines then the operations or we can delete the operations and it will delete the guidelines too ?

Other DOP headers are attached to the customer order line and total of pegged demands is greater then the customer order line quantity

Hello,  What might be the cause of not being able to schedule the SO operation? The scheduling result shows Unscheduled.Has anyone encountered this previously? Thank you for your help!

Hi community,Looking foreward fo your suggestions on the following,For an inventory part, purchase lead time is set to 07 days and it shows the expected delivery date of 07/19/2023.Safety stock is set to 60 and min lot size is set to 80.No available stock or existing supply/demand.Aftter performing MRP for the part, it has generated requisition to replenish stock with a qty of 80 at the supply date 07/21/2023 (considering working days of the site)

Hi,We enter the characteristics when opening the inventory card, we want to see the characteristics of the parts when making a purchase request. How can we do this ?

Hi IFS Users,WE need to update the Ser.number from some articles to a smaller free number range.eg Art A ser.number in IFS : 99000 - 99050    =>    The 50 used Ser.no were obsolete and have been scraped.We would like to reset the number range to begin with 10100 (there is no bigger number in IFS yet).Thanks for any helpVolker

Hello,There are several report parameters when creating a new count report in IFS.  Maybe I missed one, but is there a way to create a inventory count report for ONLY inventory parts with qty on hand > 0?  In other words, only parts that currently have inventory quantity on hand.  Right now, the report gives you all parts, even ones with 0 qty. Thanks,Mark

When trying to add a new Inventory Part I am getting a system error that says, “Part Main Group is Mandatory. Please Update”. Does anyone know what field this refers to or how to resolve? Thanks  

Hello all,Is there anything on the Purchase Order where the buyer can tell quality to inspect a non-standard / non-inventory part before moving to production or engineering? I’m sure we could add a note somewhere, but I was hoping there is a flag that could be checked.Thank you in advance for your input

In Cloud, where do I see which Team an Employee is connected to in the Labour Class they sit in?   We have some fairly hefty reporting going on based around this Labour Class/Employee/Team combo … fingers crossed! ThanksLinda

My question concerns the correct approach to use Plsqlap_server_api.Post_Outbound_Message in PLSQL code along with IFS Connect Routing Rule. I have been successful in sending a file and email in IFS9 via routing rule, routing address and Connect Sender setup.  As well, all of the IFS Connect element tests I perform are successful in IFS10, sending to a folder and sending an email.The API I wrote, in IFS9 works as expected and is used on a custom menu; sends the file to a folder and sends an email.  I am using the same basic script, changing some of the views due to IFS10 having changed the underlying LU.  I am using Plsqlap_server_api.Post_Outbound_Bizapi_Clob in IFS9.  It appears this procedure is not available in IFS10.  All of the other Plsqlap_Server_API.Post_Outbound_bizapi procedures I have tried error out in various ways or do not find a routing rule.  I am also noticing differences in IFS Connect between IFS9 and IFS10.Any advice or direction woul

In App9-  On Shop Floor Workbench, we have ‘Clocking Note’ field on Start Production, Start Setup and Start Indirect buttonsHow do we get the same field ‘Clocking Note’  visible on Regular Time Clock Screen?. Is it possible ? Thank youDilip

I know we can calculate demonstrated capacity for a single work center. Can demonstrated capacity be calculated for all work centers in a site? We have 100+ work centers and want to be able to compare demonstrated vs average capacity on a weekly basis without having to calculate each work center individually. IFSAPP10Thanks, Eric

Hello everyone,I have an issue when it comes to Shop Order that are connected to CAMRO processes.The idea is to have a Pick List that can cover multiple Shop Orders, like Consolidated Picklist for Customer Orders/Shipments.Anyone had this problem before? How can we do a Consolidated Shop Order Pick List?

In APPS10 When you have set misc demand on project activity, the planned cost (Total cost) is retrieved based on supply option. Seems like, when you have ‘Manufactured’ part,  the cost is derived from cost set 1, but when you have ‘Purchased’ part, is the cost always taken from either Inventory Part cost or if not defined, from estimated cost. Or for purchased also from cost set 1?    

Hi IFS-community, I have a question regarding the metric OEE. We have currently using IFS10, but are moving towards integrating IFS-Cloud later on this year. Under what segment can I find the set-up documentation for OEE and how it works in IFS? More specifically, how it affects the capacity of our work centers. Best RegardsAnders

wondering if there is a quide on creating new quick reports

Hello,Out of all our parts we have many that are “Planned by MS” and many that are “Site MRP”. I have found 4 parts (3 are in the structure of one) which are defined as “Selective MRP”. How would these have been set as “Selective MRP”? Does it result in any difference when MRP is run?Thank you.Regards,Basil

Hello,In the picture I added below, although the shop order was closed before, the work order is opened and becomes "include as demand changed" and "include as supply changed". This is due to why. What is the source of solution for this problem? Can you help me? 

 I am wondering if IFS has functionality for automatically holding specific serials when they fail and are nonconforming on a control plan analysis line? Currently the analysis page shows you when you have a specific serial which is nonconforming, but it does not seem to change the availability of the part and relies on the operator modifying the availability of the correct serial.

How can 'Adjustment Factor Weight' be changed?   Is there a field, somewhere in IFS, where we can change this variable as we see fit?   Thanks,

Hello,  What unit of measure is the Priority Adjustment Factor Weight calculation utilizing? If we have this field set to 100  and the adjustment factor is set to 1000 then how is the the Original date being adjusted (minutes, hours, days)?Original Date + [100 * ( 1 - 1000/ 100 )] or Original Date - 900 what?

Hi,Does anyone know if its possible to add a trendline over a bar chart in App10? If so, how please?
