We would like to control the ‘Detach’ option in Document Management. The requirement would be specifically to have few users with the ‘Detach’ capability for specific Document Classes and have the rest of the users in ‘View’ access. Further, we would like to control this by window level. We only need the capability of controlling the ‘Detach’ option in the Shop Order window and it should work as expected in other windows.  When I tried the Access levels in Document Basics it overrides from somewhere. I created a Group with all the users and given access level as ‘View’ for the specific Document Class. Then I included the special person IDs into the Document Class with ‘Admin’ access. This did not work.  Then I tried to remove the following permission from the allocated permission sets. DOC_REFERENCE_OBJECT_API.RemoveStill I could see the Detach RMB option for the user and the user is able to remove the document from the shop order window.  What would be the approach to have this config

Hello.On the shop floor workbench screen (URL = ifsapf:frmDispatchList), we would like to understand how privileges work to manage the access to this menu :Material Review board → create Thanks

Community,is it possbile to see who make changes the status of the current product structure? I don’t see the IFS History log has this info. correct me if I was wrong. Thank you.

Apps 10 UPD 18 Currently we manually( via IFS partner integration) receive shop orders, both to handling units and to loose stock. We are utilizing the API Shop_Ord_API.Receive_Part__. In using shop floor work bench, the users start and stop production, and approve operations(labor/machine time and qty).We want to change this to auto report Qty. Steps we’ve taken:Changed the flag on receive part - Auto Report Operation to True. On the work center - set the Auto Report Labor/Machine time with qty to Never. Allow Over reporting on inventory part-Manufacturing.The qty is correctly reporting to the operation for each shop order receipt. However, if we over produce(go over the Lot Size) the operation clocking gets stopped, and the time is reported.  Again - it works perfect until we hit our lot size, which we do more often than not. Surely there must be a setting we’re missing to never report time on shop order receipt and to allow the clockings to continue until manually stopped. Thanks!

Hi allNow I'm considering how we can define the default value of “supply code” per inventory part (or part?)  on project deliverables.Ideally, when the configuration is copied, the supply code should be entered according to the default values in the materials requirement of the project deliverables.Please tell me about the parameters and operations that should be set.Regards

HelloPlease help to check why the zero in front of the decimal point does not show up in analysis result, which had been defined in control plan as below snapshot?Any questions please let me know.ThanksSusan  

I am new to IFS (4 weeks) and have been tasked with coming up with a way for our schedulers to be able to plan using drag and drop (I am looking at visual planning) as well as plan with a single line of the route (we currently have up to 4 operations).  Is there a way in IFS to group the operations together for planning while leaving the 4 separate operations intact for the rest of the organization? Right now we are on the path of creating a ‘dummy’ work center that would represent the full time on the machine.  This is failing because when I set the operation to the bottom of the route (operation 50), it doesn’t start until operation 30 is complete.  I need it to start at the same time as operation 10 and complete at the same time as operation 40.Is there a way in IFS to make this happen, or what am I missing on the operation set up to make them align?   

I have a raw material (DUP-BATCHCOMP-1) used in multiple finished goods. The Complete Where Used is shown below.When I look at Products Per Component, though, the intermediate level parts DUP-4000-A and DUP-5000-A are listed. Why are these listed as the other three -A parts shown in the tree above are not listed? 

Hello all,I have a question about adding dosage information to the shop order.  As a lab technician, I create recipes that are being used in production. The dosage information is now stored in a separate excel file, just for the operators. I would like to add this info to the shop order. Is there a field in the inventory part or recipe structure that can be used for this data and that can be shown on the shop order?Thnx in advance.

We have customer owned equipment that is used in a manufacturing processes and we need to track which shop orders & lots that this piece of equipment was used in. This piece of equipment in not consumed as part of the manufacturing process and can be reused.  The piece of equipment can be either lot tracked or serial number tracked.All of the processes that we’ve tried so far seem rather convoluted. Any brilliant thoughts on how to solve for this scenario? 

When we go to approve an operation, the receive location no is prepopulated. I’m sure this was setup by one of my predecessors. How can I change what is prepopulated in this field?  

Hi.I would like to know if it’s possible to manage Safety Stock for inventory parts managed via DOP (IFS 10).I’ve tried it configuring the safety stock in Planning Data tab (Inventory Part window) but the MRP doesn’t have in account it to generate the requirements.If it is not possible via Safety Stock, Do I have another alternative?

Community, Wondering what PLM interface that are in IFS already out of box? We are on APP10, Upd 9. Thank you.

Does anyone know how to turn off Automatic Part Number generation when creating a new record in the Engineering Parts window within IFS Aurena (APPS 10)

Does anyone know if when bringing over an email into Business Mail or even from Business Mail to Business Opportunity if you can somehow separate the attachment that was in the email outside of the actual email attachment as well - so it would look something like this The original email and then the Purchase Order or RFQ that was attached inside the email brought out separately as a PDF 

Our current routings use 4 operations, one for each zone of the machine.  Management likes that we can report labor by machine zone using these 4 operations, but the planning team wants a single operation to plan by so they do not have to deal with the noise that 4 operations creates.  How can I meet this objective within IFS?Thank you!Robin 

Transaction Code UNSUBCONTR, Would Like to Know When is this Transaction code Triggered and Used.

Hi All,Currently we are working with company that running in Electronic Industrial use IFS Cloud.They have several production line machine called by Surface Mount Device. A set of machine that working for mounting component on a PCB board. There are some condition with this manufacturing process;We don’t use IOT integration for manufacturing  Manufacturing proposed use Production Schedule/Repetitive Manufacturing Component Inventory UOM in PCS but have catch UOM in Roll/Tape Traceability for material component lot need to be traced for each production line. Common Material component part can be used in multiple production line. But when a specific part Roll/Tape planed for 1 production line. It cannot be used for another production line. Multiple ‘Roll/Tape’ can be used for one Production Line.Does anyone have any experience dealing with this condition?I’m looking for practical solution for this condition.Thanks! -Adi-

Question customer raisedWhen entering or updating Resources in a Project Activity, it will often show a message such as:”The resource xxx has no capacity calculated for the activity period.”Clicking ‘Yes’ will add the record as expected, so not stopping functionality. Why this message appears?  

Hi, I have the following issue. Please assist Issue: When a person is assigned to a Resource ID, that Resource ID should be retrieved when the employee charges time to an activity. In App10 I find that this did not occur. Steps: 1. Open Resource Group and verify that employee is assigned to the resource on the Person tab. 2. Open Project Time Registration screen and search for employee (in the relevant company ) - should retrieve. 3. Add a line on the Week tab for Activity Short Name (eg: CC002.B.20) select a Report Code - notice that Resource ID remains blank. I can select a resource, but none populates. It should populate with the primary resource the employee is assigned to.

Hello, Currently, we are using WADACO to directly issue component material to a Shop Order via Manual Issue Shop Order Part. This has been working well. However, I have noticed that there does not appear to be a command to unissue material in the event a transactional mistake has been made. Looking through the WADACO user guide, I do not see a command that indicates it is possible to do, is this correct?Any guideance would be appreciated. 

Hello,I am looking for a way to export the BOM (structure, components, etc.) from multiple parts into a .csv or .xlsx file. I realize this may require a macro. Reason: I need this list for 1000’s of parts for analytics.The list should have the PN tied to the structure (repeat the part number for each component; see column B)Example:Inputs: List of 1000’s of partsProcess: ???Output: List of 1000’s of parts with corresponding structureSee image for a basic example.Thanks for any help or direction!-Shockwave
