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

We face a situation when we change Part Type from Manufactured to Purchased in Part Cost. Cost template is changed and cost calculated is correct. However we noticed that Structure multilevel still presents components from Manufactured structure type despite part type is changed to purchased where no components exists. Is this correct behavior? Reason why we discovered this is that an information message was presented “Zero Cost Parts Exists”. This message is not applicable for the purchased part, only for the manufactured structure that is no longer in use. Very confusing for user. Only way to get around this, as we have identified, is to create a new revision for part. Is there another better way to handle this scenario?

Hi,Continuation of this topic: https://community.ifs.com/products-manufacturing-products-engineering-40/master-scheduling-for-configured-parts-30168---------------------------------Background:There is a configurable finished good, DOP handled. One of its major configuration characteristics is width. There are 10-20 different values (widths). For each width there is a phantom configured manufactured part created, DOP handled. Occurance of each width/phantom part is controlled by configuration rules. Under each phantom part (=width) there is a list of "real" components in different types - manufactured configured, manufactured non-configured, purchased. Subject:Forecasting using Master Schedule. Business would like to register forecasts in MS for each WIDHT. This is the level where forecasts are possible to establish. We cannot register forecast value for finished good part level, as this summarized information is too inaccurate and cannot be jus

We are getting this error when trying to create another analysis on a shop order.  We have never had this before and all control plan settings appear to be correct.  Any ideas? 

Using Enterprise Explorer, Apps 10. Unsure if i’ve selected the correct sub forum but there isn’t one for inventory or warehouse so have gone for manufacturing (since it the below issue mainly affects our factory stock counts). When creating a new Inventory Location, the Bay, Row, Tier and Bin fields default to ‘ -’ (rather than just ‘-’). If this isn’t noticed and any of them are left like this, when someone on the shop floor tries to generate a count report (using all of the Bay/Row/Tier/Bin information), there is a good chance that they won’t notice the leading space in these fields and the count report will not generate, meaning that they are unable to count the stock.This is particularly an issue since inventory locations can’t be deleted and recreated after they have been used before. Is there a reason why the Bay/Row/Tier/Bin fields default to this ‘ -’ value?

Hi, instead of hiding an option in “Time Clock Type Detail Items”, the complete row was deleted. However, there doesn’t seem to be an option to add the row again? How can I add this again? In this specific case, Item name “Site” should be visible for Object name “Start Production” as well.

Hi, We are using timeclock in production. We use mainly 2 Objects names (=buttons): “STOP PRODUCTION” and “REPORT QTY COMPLETE”. The user first identifies himself. When we use “STOP PRODUCTION”, only the operation the user is showing which he can select to stop.However, when we use “REPORT QTY COMPLETE”, after identification the complete list of operations is showing. So there is no filter which takes the employee into account. Does anyone has an idea how to add this filter, so the behaviour is comparable to STOP PRODUCTION?
