Hello, how can I ensure that, as a result of a quality control for purchasing, suitable materials are automatically transferred to stock? Afterwards, I will carry out the scrap and return transactions of the unsuitable materials. However, I want the suitable materials to be automatically transferred to stock.

I am facing an issue at our factory that when an integration line has a stoppage, the information does not reach manufacturing and the parts manufactured keep clogging the lines. I have found no way to control this in IFS. I have not used Kanban circuits before but I was wondering if this could be a solution. could I set a maximum quantity for a specific part and a reorder point so when the quantity of parts exceeds the set limit, no more shop orders are released into manufacturing? thank you in advance.

Case:Clocking's are started on day 1 and stopped on another day.  Some of the durations are calculated on a 24 hours timeframe for example:start time : 19/10/2023  07:35:00stop time: 20/10/2023  07:47:00duration : 23.2  (standard break from 12-13 each working day)time share and crew size = 1Other duration are calculated on a 8 hour timeframe for examplestart time: 19/10/2023  10:14:00stop time: 20/10/2023  09:29:00duration : 7.25time share and crew size = 1We are using on standard calendar on all levels (labor class, employee, work center etc)settings on site : calendar consideration: calendar time and overtimeQuestionWhat is the reason for the different calculation of the duration in the clockings?   

Hi community,We are studying the eco-footprint functionalities in IFS Cloud and would like to have an answer if the eco-footprint calculates the total emission based on actual part usage in the organization?As an example if we have defined substances and connected the substances for a part, are we able to calculate how much our actual usage has created emissions? Does it calculate how many parts we have produced / sold / disposed / purchased during the selected period? If yes, what is the logic and how we can do the actual emission calculation?Now we have been able to create calculation for one single part /part structure but how we get our actual total emissions calculated?I would appreciate your help since there is not so much material related to this topic.I have seen the demo video below and read the IFS help but cannot find the answer.https://www.gotostage.com/channel/4c8b006abd3344ea9a62605ba7c00c31/recording/f753f5fdfd964d72837d80c995fc2229/watch?source=CHANNEL

I have a question about the different calculations of the Shop Order Requisition start date depending on whether it is generated manually or through MS/MRP. From testing (Cloud) I have found the following: Manual SOR:Uses Fixed & Variable lead time set on the Inventory Part manufacturing tabIf this is 0, it uses Manufacturing Lead Time entered on Lead Time & Supply Dates section on Inventory Part main tab insteadIt doesn’t directly use the lead time data in the routing alternate revision MS/MRP:Uses lead time data in the routing alternate revision (if this has been calculated)If not calculated, uses Manufacturing Lead Time entered on Lead Time & Supply Dates section on Inventory Part main tabIgnores anything manually entered on Inventory Part manufacturing tab If I change the Due Date on an MS/MRP generate SOR, the start date changes based on the logic for the manual SOR. So even if I change it back to the original due date, I now get a different start date. Question:Is the

Hi I’m trying to do a migration in IFS 10.7, where I need the migration to start lead time calculation with Routing_Head_Leadtime_API.Modify_Manuf_Leadtime This method only has one attribute called ATTR_ With help of debug console I can see that IFS runs this code: DECLARE    -- p0 -> i_hWndFrame.dlgManufLeadTimeCalc.lsTempAttr    p0_ VARCHAR2(32000) := 'CONTRACT'||chr(31)||'ÅSEDA'||chr(30)||'PART_NO'||chr(31)||'377081-10002'||chr(30)||'LEADTIME_BASIS'||chr(31)||'3'||chr(30)||'BATCH_FLAG'||chr(31)||'N'||chr(30)||'DAILY_CAPACITY'||chr(31)||'AVERAGE'||chr(30)||'NO_ROUTING_OPTION'||chr(31)||'UNMODIFIED'||chr(30)||'ROUTING_REVISION'||chr(31)||'1'||chr(30)||'BOM_TYPE'||chr(31)||'Manufacturing'||chr(30)||'ALTERNATIVE_NO'||chr(31)||'*'||chr(30)||'ORDER_SIZE'||chr(31)||'4580'||chr(30)||'UPDATE_LEAD_TIME'||chr(31)||'Update also expected'||chr(30); BEGIN     IFSAPP.Log_SYS.Init_Debug_Session_('en');     IFSAPP.Routing_Head_Leadtime_API.Modify_Manuf_Leadtime (p0_ );    --------------------

Hello! we have launched MRP and have appeared this error. Which is the problem? thank you!  Error snapshot MRP Part. Site/Part US1D1 / GPN700M362, ABC Class C. Original error text ORA-01400: cannot insert NULL into ("IFSAPP"."MRP_PART_TAB"."SETUP_COST")

Hello everyone, Has anyone encountered this error when wanting to recreate a master part ?  The Eco-footprint Part Information is automatically created when the master part is created. However, if the master part is later deleted, this information is kept and it does not allow the recreation of the same master part number. Also, the record from “Eco-footprint Part Information” screen cannot be deleted. Do you know if there is a special setting that should be configured ?  Thank you.   

When using multiple operations, the part is not dropping into inventory after op 10. It only drops into inventory after the final op.   This is an issue as we create the first portion or part in op 10, move it to the next work center where it may sit for a few days, then run it through op 20. Close shop order and the final part is in inventory.    Is this an IFS issue whereas there is not a way to run multiple operations while tracking inventory?  Or-am i using the functionality wrong? If so, what does standard manufacturing operations use to track multiple ops throughout their plant?  -part set up wrong preventing it from being in inventory after op 10?-wrong ifs application? If multiple ops is not used for this, what do IFS users use to track a single part that takes many operations to complete in its final form? Think of aluminum rolling mill…. One part number but takes many weeks and many passes to transform the ingot into its final sheet or plate form. 

Hi all,There is an inventory part which part type is manufactured and it has serial tracking. There is not any qty in stock for the inventory part however there are parts and serials no that received from shop orders before in part serials page. For the part is not wantted to use serial tracking any more. So, is it possible to change the serial tracking to lot/batch tracking? Is there any way to change it?Thanks

Good Afternoon,  We are currently on Apps 10 Update 20 and working on some custom fields.  Is it possible to have a custom field highlight when data is entered? These fields would be on headers in orders, quotes, customers and not necessarily in a line item level.  We can do conditional formatting in line level detail but would like it to be applied there as well. Thanks  

Hello everyone.  I am hoping someone can give me some suggestions for how to resolve this conflict.  Our manufacturing process is a conveyor belt line.  The first machine does task 1 and the product goes down a conveyor to a second machine that performs task 2, then on to the conveyor belt again until it reaches another machine for a 3rd task.  Then further down the conveyor belt the product is packaged at the final work station. We have these set up as operations within our route, and each operation has a unique work center.The production team reports scrap at the operation level to allocate the correct cost at time of scrap.  They also report labor at the operation level and use for productivity measures.  This has worked great for the production team, but our planning team is downloading files and planning outside of IFS.Our planning team would like to be able to schedule within IFS, but they would like to do so using a single bar in either APB or VP, without the spaghetti effect or

When creating a new engineering revision,  any text in the field Note is copied. We would like to find an empty Note field when a new revision is created, and keep text on previous revisions. Can this functionality be implemented in coming IFS Cloud updates?

Is there a way to change the status of a Business Opportunity Line to “Won” without having to create a customer order from the Line?   We have lines that are part of a bigger project that are technically “Won” but we can only cancel the line or create a customer order and then cancel the customer order.Seems that you should be able to Wim the Line like you can do at the Business Opportunity header.We are using Enterprise Explorer, version 10, update 13

Hello We have many instances where we ship material to our internal companies - the business are trying to avoid having to correct or adjust the IFS transactions with a manual entry to reverse the Material Overhead added to the cost of the purchased part. I have looked using the part specific functionality, but the business does not wish to use alternative parts for this process - All help is very very much appreciated.  Kind RegardsPaula 

Hi all, I work in a Danish machine company called GM and we have been using IFS for a little over a year now. We are currently working and testing the IFS Configurator, to be able to configurate our machines to make it easier for us and our customers. There have been done several tests and our issue right now, is when we make a DOP-order for a machine, the phantom BOM of the machines sub assemblies with the MRP-code “K” isn't visible in the production order. Meaning our production won´t be able to see where all the different parts belong to. We have tried some different things incl. adding a BOM that have a MRP-Code “K”  to the order, which came out as It should. - Also if the BOM is with a MRP-code “P” it will also come out correct, BUT we have run in to problem with the “P” MRP-code, so we don´t want to use that on. My questions is therefore, what can we do to fix the above issue? - we want to use the MRP-Code “K” and we want them to shown in the order when adding a DOP-order in our

We have changed the cost template on a phantom part and rolled up the top level part but the cost bucket does not change. When we changed our template we expected only two variable cost buckets, 200 and RAW. However, LABOH which is a fixed-cost has remained. Any ideas on how to remove this?  

Hi everybody,anybody dealed with SigmaNest (or other nesting specialized software) integrated to IFS?Ideally on IFS Cloud (or IFS 10 at least, where is the support of operation blocks). The role of nesting software (SigmaNest ) should be in our case:to provide cutting plans these cutting plans should be transformed to operation blocks in IFS consequently, created operation blocks should be proccessed in standard wayThanks in advance.With kind reagrds,Zdenek Bäumelt  

Is it possible in finitely limited resources to firm/fix up shop orders and or operations so that APB plans around the firmed operations without moving the firmed/fixed ones? And if not, is there a workaround here

We are using IFS 10 UPD9.When the operators create a new MRB the status goes to Created.However, on a least 3 cases the MRB went into status Planned.  We can’t figure out what is making the status be Planned vs Created.Planned doesn’t even seem to be a valid status (doesn’t show in the search options).Can anyone shed some light on why MRBs sometimes create in status Created and sometimes Planned?

Can we make an enumeration field read only in ifs cloud  ?

Hello! We are using: IFS Cloud Web version: 22.2.10.20230705163153.0IFS OData provider version: 22.2.10.20230705114338.0 In a customized Pl/SQL Package we are using approval_routing_api.Notify_Group_Members and approval_routing_api.Notify_Users to generate notifications for specific steps in specific times. It is working fine having the module Inventory Part for example. and the Part_No is included in the email contents. The needed modification is to have the Part Description included as well. Is there any way to have such a customization without touching the IFS Standard Packages?Thank you in advance.  

HI, Does anyone have knowledge regarding Complete Where Used I am looking for a simple return of all top-level parts in our inventory and a clear list of where the single part (e.g., part number 123123) is used within multiple sub-assemblies of several separate top level structures. Bypassing sub assemblies and only returning lists of top level parts.However, I am specifically interested in receiving this information in a tabular format, not as a hierarchical tree structure.
