Does anyone have any info/documentation/knowledge, please, on Transaction Revaluation Events?  We’re in Apps9, running weighted average costing. This is an OOREC/Receipt of Shop Order transaction for a Shop Order connected to a Project.  It’s the first time we have manufactured the part.  I don’t think that’s partiularly relevant as there are other OORECs with Reval Events on parts we have manufactured multiple times.   The total cost of the shop order is the 3506.86 (3336.46+170.4) and the part’s current inventory value is 3506.86.  The part was subsequently issued at 3506.86.  Material Cost on the SO was 2086.59, Op Cost was 1420.27.  Why did it not just OOREC at 3506.86?  Where does this 3336.46 come from?   I’m sure the answer will be blindingly obvious …  Thanks in advance!

We currently reserve shop orders to be picked  and issued,  we have multiple stores people carrying out this task and we would like to see the User Id of the stores person who has reserved stock , this then will allow user to search for their User Id in Inventory Part in Stock Reservation window and export out an equivalent picking list of what is reserved, as this screen shows Stores Location.  I hope this would be as simple as a custom field and someone may guide me on how to do this. 

Hello, I am finding that we are not using MS Level 0 parts in our system. We are using MS Level 1 parts as top level parts instead of components. Is there anyone else out there that does this in IFS? It’s my understanding that Level 0 is supposed to be Top Level while Level 1 is components. What are the problems that could arise from using IFS this way? Thanks!

I’m wondering if there is a way to compare two Engineering Part Revision “consists of” structures, prior to transferring to site.  

Hello all, Hello,Just a simple question. Can someone explain to me why it is not possible to have an MRP k type item in an estimate. RegardsLaurent

I cannot seem to find the qty of by-products received into the inventory in shop orders screen.Is there a way we can have a breakdown of by-products received for each shop order.

Hi,our customer has the following requirements.They have 3-Site, for example:ABCHe create an “Engineering Part” with “Provide Code” and “Product Structure”, for example:“Part Number”  = 1212“Provide Code” = MakeThe next step would be “Engineering Revision Transfer Action”.The “Part Type” per Site are:A = ManufacturedB = Purchased (raw)C = is not needed For Site A with “Part Type” “Manufactured” it does the transfer.For Site B with “Part Type” “Purchased (raw)”  it does not  the transfer! This is the Error message, I understand that, but this situation exists and I think not only in this company. Is there a way to transfer a “Engineering Part” with “Part Type” manufactured and “Product Structure” as a “Purchased (raw)” Part?Would appreciate a timely response, thank you in advance for your assistance.BR,Milanko

Hi, The default setting for ‘DOP pegged SO update’ (Inv part - manufacturing tab) is “Planned”. For parts with the supply type “Requisition”, this can not be changed to “Released”. If I make a DOP with full level settings, i get pegged shop orders after netting and releasing (assuming I don’t have stock). Also for parts with the supply type “Requisition”. I want to update these shop orders if they are in released status, however due to the setting above I cannot do this: I first need to go to all DOP orders and change the setting there to overrule the setting on inventory part.This is very time consuming in large DOP structure. Is there a faster way to change this for every part?

Community, do you know IFS support below scenario.We would like IFS for some inventory parts, when goods receiving, will tell the receiver where the parts are needed, and can issue to the demand(shop orders or projects) immediately.Thank you.

both IEE anf cloud as ı want to create a version of an estimate; ı create the version; ı can see in deliverables. but when ı include the version, the connection between the version and the opportunity disappeared. ıcannot update the opprtunity with this new version.

Hello,I would like to integrate IFS with a banking web service. I have been provided with the documentation, WSDL address for the SOAP service, and a PFX key for communication with the bank.I have already set it up in the SOAP UI testing application. Now, I am trying to do it in IFS. The bank provides services in the ISO20022 standard, which is supported by IFS. However, I am unable to handle HTTP SOAP in IFS. Perhaps someone has already implemented this with the communication keys. How should I proceed?Thank you.Best regards

Hello Community -We are on Apps10 update 17.  This subject has been discussed before but I do not see any good solutions so I am looking for options.  A challenge we have with our raw materials inventory is where the total inventory (in feet for example) is correct but this total may be made up of multiple pieces of varying lengths that are not suitable for the inventory demand.  Does anyone have a good process of tracking this in IFS?

Hi, I am wondering if there is an ability to split an existing lot number into two lot numbers? So example would be that we have a part that is 25 linear meters in length, lot number 123. I now want to create a new lot number 234 for 10 linear meters whilst reducing 123 to 15. Is there a transaction or method to achieve this in IFS? Thanks 

Community, IFS picking list is in PDF format, and our user hate it. they would like it to be in excel format.is it possible to do it in APP10? Thank you.

Hi All, We are looking into using the Change Management system in Cloud in collaboration with the Doc man system. Is there a way of setting up internal IFS chasers when action hasn’t been taken (i.e management approval of change) for something like 7days?Any advice would be appreciated! Kind Regards,Alex

Hi, it seems not be possible to peg a customer order line with a purchase order line, which originated from a DOP. Is that so, or am I doing something wrong? Situation:To finish a DOP, we need to have 3 times component A. We create a DOP,  a pegged purchase order is created to order 3x Component A. Related shop orders are also created.2 times component A are delivered. The last part will be delayed. We decide to finish the DOP and send the end product to the costumer, and when the last component A is received we will sent to customer who is able to built that component in the machine himself.This is how we do it:We adjust the shop order, so we can finish it with 2 components (qty per assembly is now 2 instead of 3). We add a line to the costumer order with Component A, so we can sent it afterwards to the client. We close the DOP We would like to peg the existing purchase order with the customer order line, to make sure that part goes to the customer when it arrives. However, that doesn

Hi all,For a Manufactured Part, we can define several Structure Alternates (*, 1, 2...), which is a very useful feature. Normaly we would define the default product structure, the most used one, in Structure Alternate *.We are increasingly using this feature to define alternative ways to manufacture the parent part based on changes on supply chain, etc. When we have many Structure Alternates available, MRP, Shop Order creation, etc,… will take the default * Structure Alternate. If we want to choose another option, we can do so manualy (not very efficient) or use the Structure Lot Size “trick”,… where we specify that any Lot bigger than “zero” should be manufactured using the Structure  Alternate “x” (1, or 2 or whatever). Basicaly, we are using the Structure Lot Size feature to point towards the Structure Alternate we want to select by default. Problem: if the parent part is Planning “P” type, Phantom, there will not be any need to manufacture it, and therefore the Structure Lot size t

In the Analysis Norms page in Quality Control, what information should a user see in the Test Result column? I have looked in numerous environments, Apps10 thru Cloud, and in all instances this column is blank for all records. 

when the shop order is report with operation or issue with materials, the below background job kicked in. why?background job or “Refresh Shop Order Cost Details”  Shop_Order_Cost_Util_API.Batch_Calculate_Details__ 

Hello, Does anyone know why there is no info shown in “Qty on Inbound Locations” tab since every setting has been done beforehand ( If component material is connected to an operation and inbound location is added on the work center in which the operation is performed).  Thanks for any inputA.

I cant seem to find a way to wrap a column header in an element on a lobby. I the idea is that once in Aurena, we have to do a full screen on it. Does anyone know? Ex.  I want to do have the whole column show up wrapped up. Like in Excel, you could use “wrap Text”

I need some help.Our company is currently purchasing a 6ft piece of insulation (UOM Each) to be cut into smaller pieces. We have the smaller pieces set up as part numbers with a UOM of Each and we know the relationship of the smaller piece to the larger piece (i.e 1x 3ft piece = 0.5x 6ft piece). We have multiple sizes and we know the way to best optimize the cutting of the insulation to reduce the scrap. We want to be able to set up product structures so that shop orders can be automatically created based on the optimized cutting patterns. Any thoughts on how we can do this? We are currently at a lost so any ideas would be helpful

Hello,Checking if this is correct in our version IFSAPP9.The PO order quantity was reduced manually by the buyer after partial receipt to match the quantity received, but neither the PO header nor the line item closed automatically. Both had to be closed manually by the manager.Is it because of the manual change in the PO qty after the receipt?Normally, for us, when the quantity received is equal to the PO quantity, the PO line and the header closes automatically. Angelo DiSipio
