Hi, We like that if a users identifies himself on the shop floor timeclock, only operations that are applicable to his labour class are visible. Is that possible? Currently, everything is visible which doesn’t make sense. We only need operations for the labour class that the operator is in. Thank you!

We would like to batch print our work instructions for shop orders at our Go-Live. Is there a way to do this in 22R1?

Hello Community -  Does anyone have any thoughts on the best practice for how often to run the cleanup of inventory function?  We are on IFS10 update 19.  We have only been running the cleanup once a year before our physical inventory.  However, we have recently started weekly cycle counts and are considering running the cleanup more often.  TIA. 

I have Day Types with the correct minutes for each day. When this information is put into a calendar, some days are not giving the same work time. For example, the Day Type for a Sunday shows 11pm-12am with a working time of 60 minutes. However, when that is added to a calendar, it generates Sunday as a full 480 minutes (8-hr shift). How can I make sure the minutes of a selected day type entered into the calendar does not change?*Correct Day Type Information*Correct Day Type Information needed to reflect in calendarCorrect Day Type Information needed to reflect in calendar*Wrong times reflected in the calendar for the above day types*

Hi, we are currently investigating to start using constraint based planning for employees/persons. However, we are struggling. How can we assign persons to operations? Can be with APB, or not, we don’t know either way. Does this option give us the possibility to generate planning on a person level? How can we also set the labor capacity as a seperate contstraint factor? Currently, APB only takes workcenters into account so we manually check afterwards. Is it possible to assign some kind of efficiency to a operator? Lets say person A can do a certain job at 100% (which equals 4 hours). However, if we assign person B to that same operation because A is not available, he will not score 100%. We estimate it to be 50% because he is less well trained, so the operation will take 8 hours. Is something like this possible?Using IFS Apps 10.Thanks!

In IFS Cloud 22R2, we can enable and successfully use the security checkpoint when performing signoff of shop order work guidelines, if we use the Shop Order Work Guidelines client. However, the same operation will fail in Shop Floor Workbench (on the tab for work guidelines under the dispatch list). How can we find further information about this limitation? What we want to know is exactly why it does it not work in one client but not in the other? And will it be fixed and when? 

IFS Cloud 22R2 customer is looking forsome documentation on how to set up someone who would be a technician for the Technician Portal.  They looked on the page documentation and tried to drill down from there but did not see a step by step what is required to have a technician set up Any guidance will be appreciated.

Apps8I have two shop order requisitions for a serialized part that uses Date Effectivity. I am unable to merge these requisitions into an existing shop order or into a new shop order as the context menu item Merge Into Shop Order(s) is grayed out.In the documentation there is nothing stated in the Prerequisites of any restriction due to serialization.Would this have been a bug, or was this not possible in Apps8?

Hello,Is it possible to have IFS plan/issue in minimum unit quantities?  For instance, PartA has inventory UoM in mL and is issued in mL, and it is only available in 1 mL increments.  So, if a shop order calls for < 1 mL of material, we want planning to see demand for 1 mL.  For example, if we need 0.6 mL for the shop order, we are going to open one of the 1 mL packages, use 0.6 mL, and ‘scrap’ the remaining 0.4 mL because it can not be used after the package is opened.  We don’t want Planning to ‘see’ demand for 0.6 mL on one shop order and demand for 0.4 mL on a 2nd shop order and think that we have enough material when, in fact, we would need 2 mL (2 x 1mL packages).  Since we are going to use 1 mL increments no matter what, we want planning to see demand in 1 mL increments and we want to issue in 1 mL increments.  Defining the UoM as each would be the best way to handle this, but is there a way to handle it in another UoM.

Hi, We use the repair Shop order. Never has issues with it, untill now. If we want to receive to SO, We get the error: “Serial number XXX cannot be received because it was not issued or has allready been received to this repair order’ However, if i take a look at the part serial History of that part, the lates line created says under transaction Description: “Issued for Shop order YY” The shop order number is the same as the shop order giving a problem.On the shop order itself, the material line status of that part is also ‘Issued’The status of the shop order is ‘started’, all operations are closed. We just need to do the reception. In the Part serial history of that part, you can see:Part was manufuctured using SO Blue Part was issued to SO Red

Community, wondering there is a way to automatically split the shop order by qty 1 on each shop order. for example, if original shop order qty 10, after split, i should get 10 shop orders with Qty 1 each.  Thank you.

When I attach a file to a design part revision, the attached document also appears on the tree screen on the left side of Engineering part navigator screen.Is it possible to hide the attached document from this tree screen in IFS APP10 ?

In the setup of a master part one is able to connect the part to an assortment. In that form it is possible to include a Classification Part No. In IFS23R1, there is no help text on this.Anyone an idea what the functionality is behind this? 

HiWe are using ifs 10.8 on premise.I’m trying to use Control Plans and Create Shopfloor analysis from our mes system.I would like to create and fill out the analysis automaticly using the projections interface (rest) When I call … int/main/ifsapplications/projection/v1/ShopOrderHandling.svc/CreateAnalysiswith body{"AnalysisNo":null,"CtrlPlanNo":null,"OrderNo":"375979","ReleaseNo":"*","SequenceNo":"*","OperationNo":"40","LotBatchNo":"*","SerialNo":null,"ConsiderOpScrap":false}Data taken fra postman interceptor.I get internal server error. Where to look for what is wrong.If i call int//ifsapplications/projection/v1/ShopOrderHandling.svc/GetExistingAnalysisCount(OrderNo='375979',ReleaseNo='*',SequenceNo='*',OperationNo=40)I get the value 4, so the order and operation is understood. What to call to insert data.int/ifsapplications/projection/v1/AnalysisResultHandling.svc/ResultDataVirtualSet

We enable the Adjust on Op Qty Deviation on manufactured Inventory Parts. This is ensure the deviation is included when the prior operation in a shop order has been over or under reported. However, if the part is set to make-to-Order on MS Level 1, this cannot be enabled unless the Configuration usage is changed to “Variant” or “Option” (instead of “Common”).Whats the logic behind this? What systematic differences betwen using a configruation usage of “Variant” or “Option” instead of “Common”. This doesn’t appear to be documented anywhere.

What projection permission is needed to view only work task in Aurena IFS10 ?

Hi, if we use the standard Ship WIP to supplier, we only have the delivery note that can be printed. We would like to have more documents in some cases, comparable to the options we have in the shipment flow/ customer order flow. How can this be achieved? Thanks!

Hello,We are currently using IFS Aurena and I need to write a quick report which allows me to pull inventory part usage by date range and the following data points:Part NoQuantity UsedCostCode Part Values How can I do this?

The time in ship/date time on a customer order line defaults to 12:00 AM. How do we change the default time on a ship date to say, 3:00 PM? We run Master Schedule at 3:00 AM. Because it runs after the ship time of 12:00 AM, we get MS Action Proposals of Actual demand is past due (late shipment), even though the line is set to ship that day and not actually late. IFSAPP10Thanks, Eric

Looking for Shop Floor Employees to report time within Shop Floor Workbench.Not all employees have logins to the system so the supervisor will enter both time and number of team members.Reporting in real time not always possible so need the ability to easily modify times but would also like to have a timeline to ensure accuracy.Does anyone have suggestions on how to do this?

Hello all, I am hoping to understanding if the following functionality is possible in IFS Apps 10 UPD 15. Currently, I have a Lot/Batch tracked part where we define a Lot number upon receipt. Currently, the part is set to backflush. I know that if I change the consumption method (issuing), I can force the system to prompt for a Lot Number. Is the same possible for Backflushing? Ideally, when the user is reporting a Shop Order completed qty in SFWB, the system would prompt them to enter the Lot Number of the component part they are consuming. I have not seen anything in the help that would indicate if this is possible. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. 

Hello,We produce a single product by combining three different inventory materials, and then place it in a plastic bag before putting it into our stock. The plastic bag is not an item kept in stock. How can we reflect the cost of this plastic bag?Thank You for Your Insight..
