Conditional Formatting Hierarchy

Looking for information on how the hierarchy logic works when using conditional formatting on multiple columns.Example: In Customer Order, the planned ship date background should turn red if the date is in the past. If the status is Invoiced/Closed, the entire line should be greyed out. Right now the Planned ship date turns red on Invoiced/Closed lines. How do I make the Status trump the Planned Ship Date formatting?  IFSAPPS10

Resource Structure and groups

Hi, Being a new here not sure if this is the right area but more general question about resource structures and groups.I am building a model to look for capacity and load over multiple sites and different site setups with workcenters and departments. I am planning to make similar resource structure for all sites and connect the workcenters and labor classes according to standard rule for each group. This to avoid any changes to individual sites’ specific settings and needs.I roughly know how to set this but just the concern that not braking anything on sites and also interested to hear how others have been using resource navigator and for what purposes -S-

Possibility to "freeze" the std cost for sub-assembly when calculating a new parent part.

Hi @majose and others!We have been trying to figure out a way to "freeze" a std cost for sub-assembly when calculating a new parent part, but haven’t been successful. I have also searched the community for similar questions without result.It would be very valuable for us to find out if there is a way to achieve this, or if not, if it is in the IFS future roadmap to look into the possibility. Since IFS Idea Wall vanished I haven’t seen a new place to register ideas for future enhancements, but perhaps one exists?Scenario is as follows:Part A: Sub-Assembly with material & operation cost, Std cost is calculated and defined for the period (year) 31 Dec. In February, the routing is changed but std cost is not updated as that shall be valid for the whole year.In Mars, a new Part B is released and contains part APart B has material & operation cost.Part B shall be calculated and a std cost shall be set for Part B BUT the std cost for Part A shall not be changed when the calculation is

Document Texts for Part Catalog parts

Hello,I am on IFS Cloud 21R1 U3 and am experiencing some strange behavior with the part catalog. On the page “Parts” when I select some parts, a command “Document text” appears, where I can add a document text and this will be shown on purchase requisition report etc.However, for the majority of the parts, when I select them, the command “Document text” does not appear.The command in the page designer has a (for me) cryptic syntax on the Document text command für Enabled: {"and":[{"!=":[{"var":"record.DocumentTextNoteId"},null]},{"!":[{"method":["record.isDirty"]}]}]} Can anyone help out here? Is there a setting I am missing? THX

ECO footprint calculation

We want to know how one of the calculation in Eco-footprint is done in relation to the status of a product structure and is it possible to adjust this calculation?The referred calculation is this, highlighted in the screenshot.We observe the calculation only includes product structures in status buildable. We have multiple product structures which are used by our suppliers and thus never set to buildable. We want to have that included in the calculation.Could you please confirm, the calculation only includes product structures in status buildable?Is it possible to modify the calculation to include product structure with any status?

Backflush Hierarchy

Hi, I’m aware that when using the backflush method, IFS uses a hierarchy to decide from where to issue the materials from. However, which location will IFS pick first within the same hierarchy level?In the screenshot below, assume we have 2 picking locations with materials, location 201092 and 1. How will IFS determine from which one to issue first? For example, the material closest to expiry date or .. ? Assume there are no reservations or whatsoever.

DOP in Engineer to order

Hi,We are trying to set up DOP in a production where we have Engineer to order on the top levels and standard sortiment parts in the lower levels. The top level structures changes continuously until the production starts. We currently use product structures in status “Plannable” until the engineering part is activated. Is there any way to create a DOP-structure from a plannable structure and continuously update it during the development phase? Or is there any other way to create demands for purchasing parts and planning during development of a deep structure?

Shop Order Lot Size not allowing partial (Decimals)

We have shop orders that the lot size will be a partial number (process manufacturing).  When entered into IFS and then saving it will round the number up.  Is there a setting I’m missing that I need to set so this does not happen?  The partial is critical in that the raw material requirements are designed to use full quantities (full pallets or big bags) and this calculates the number to require more than what we want.

Closing Audits with attached NCRs

We use the audit functionality to perform production line audits.  NCRs are then created and connected to the audit.  Some of these NCRs require action others do not.  We would like to be able to close the audit independent of the NCR status.  The documentation I've found so far states this is possible, however, it's not allowing us to close the audit's without first closing the NCRs.  This is an issue for us because while the audit is complete, the NCR may need to remain open until the non conformity is corrected.Can you please provide documentation on how to close audits with attached NCRs without having to close the NCRs first?Regards,Peshala.

Looking for a way to record the rework factor in the shop order

Hi,Please kindly follow our issue;Manufacturing/Shop Order/Order/Shop OrderIn this window in App10, as shown in the following figure, on the Shop Order page, there is a field for the percentage of expected scrap on the shop order.In the current production conditions in our factory, our products in the shop order are produced with a percentage of rework.Using the percentage of scrap on the shop order instead of percentage of rework will increase the cost of the goods that are produced, while reworking costs are less than the scrap process.In this regard, we want to know how to create shop order for product by considering the percentage of rework.Please kindly let us know your advice;

Prevent Over Receive of Shop Order

Hi All, I am attempting to prevent a user from over receiving a shop order qty that is greater than the completed qty on the operation steps. I have tried using Milestone Operation (on the first Op step) and also tried setting Operation Over Report to Not Allowed. However, I am still able to shop order receive over the amount that has been reported on the actual operation steps. Is there a way in IFS to prevent this behavior? Thank you!
