Automatic Site to Site transport task

Hello, I am looking to see if there is a way within IFS to automatically initiate a Transport Task between two Sites. Essentially, I have a part that is produced in Site A. However, we store it in Site B. I was hoping that this could be accomplished with Putaway Zones and Remote Warehouses, but it appears that will only work in a single Site. I already have the Inventory Part record setup for Site B, so the act of manually transferring parts works, but an automated Transport Task would be much more efficient than having users monitor the locations and I do not see Distribution Orders as being a practical solution for this (PP, SFPP, etc.). Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

By-product on Shop Orders not appearing in Inventory Part Availability Planning

I have product that is MS Scheduled as it is forecasted. It does not have a ‘buildable’ structure as it is only made as by-product of other parts. There are plenty of Shop Orders that will make this part as by-product but they are not showing up as Supply in IPAP.

Calculation of General Overhead in Disassembly Costing

In the documentation for About Disassembly Cost Calculation, in the second example it states:Gen OH = ((Mtrl1 Est Cost+ Mtrl2 Est Cost+ Mtrl2 Est Cost * Mtrl2 Del OH + Machine Cost+MOH1+ MOH2+ Mtrl1 Est Cost * Mtrl OH) * OH factor) / (1 - Scrap factor).To result with the values listed in the table for MK-DISASS1 and MK-DISASS2 of 351.94 and 234.63 you would need to use an OH Factor of 15% and 10%, respectively. These values, however, are not listed anywhere in the diagram.What should be used for the OH Factor, highlighted in the equation above?

Shop Floor Workbench multiple emp reporting quantity

Apps10IEEScenario: Shop order operation is for a quantity of 10. Emp 1 will complete 6 and Emp 2 will complete 4. They cannot be part of a static team (I think) because they normally would not work on the same shop order at the same time. They will probably start and finish at different times.We just purchased SFWB licenses. I am making sure we are doing this the most efficient way possible. So far I have:Emp 1 Starts ProductionEmp 2 Uses Modify Ong Op to join the operationEmp 1 uses Approve Op and changes Qty to Report to 6 and does not close operation and does not stop clockings because Emp 2 is still working on the operation.Emp 1 then uses Modify Ong Op to leave the operation.Is there any way for Emp 1 to report a qty complete and leave the operation at the same time instead of doing it in two steps as I have above?Thanks

Alternate component and shop orders

I have an alternate component set up and the product structure has the Alternate Exist checkbox checked on the component line. There is no inventory of the original part and there is inventory of the alternate component part. But when I try to process a shop order the Alternate Exist checkbox is not checked on the shop order and when I right mouse on the line and choose Alternate component/replace, I get an error that No alternate component is defined or component qty required is zero, but that is not true, what am I missing?

CRO Exchange cannot be cancelled/deleted when part is dispatched

Few important concerns related to the CRO process in IFS Cloud has mentioned below. 01. The customer mentions that the company he/she sends the Part to( which was sent through the Customer Order) , would want to cancel/delete the CRO Exchange because the part has been damaged or scrapped. If so how can it be done without receiving the Part back?02. Since the Part is Customer Owned, the company will scrap the Part. In that case how can the CRO exchange status Could be changed from the customers end?03. Further He mentions that CRO Exchange created with a Part that’s "Customer Owned" and Exchange Code = “Single Swap” > Customer receives the item via customer order (dispatched quantity = 1) and “Dispatch Approved” = “No” > Via Operation “Scrap at Customer” is performed --> Qty Scrapped at Customer = 1 is there but even though its scrapped as mentioned in Point.No.03 > the CRO exchange status is still In Exchange. Note - The related concerns have been discussed and swarmed wit

Error: Maximum of 148 enabled roles exceeded.

We recently received a report from one of our customers regarding a critical issue in their production environment concerning a user.it appears that the issue is linked to the maximum number of roles enabled, reaching a limit of 148. Solution: I suggested to the client that reducing the MAX_ENABLED_ROLES to below 148 could resolve the problem.Problem: customer has expressed difficulty in reducing the assigned roles for this particular user.They've explained that current role structure involves end user roles, each linked to various functional roles. Changing these end user roles would impact multiple users, making it an impractical solution. Question:Please can I know is there any alternative solutions beyond maintaining the role count at 148?(Some IFS users have encountered difficulties with this limitation, and we are keen to find a workaround that ensures both functionality and flexibility.) Best Regards,Shafraz Mohamed

Reuse a Serial Number

Is there a way to reuse a serial number for a part? For instance, a part serial record was created from a shop order and received as Part 1000 with a Serial No of 200200. The serialized part was then delivered to a customer.The serialized part was later returned from the customer and disassembled. The physical unit no longer exists but the part serial record does. A new shop order is created and we want to receive the finished good as Part 1000 and Serial No of 200200. But we can’t because that part serial already exists. So what I’m asking is, is there a way to have two part serial records with the same part number and serial number? I know those fields have to be unique but I wasn’t if you had any suggestions on how to make this possible. Thanks!

Firmware as a non-inventory shop order component ? Firmware version traceability?

Hi! We manufacture serialized devices. Each device is programmed firmware, and the firmware is frequently updated. We want to have version traceability. We had the idea to create a non-inventory part for the software, and include it as a component of a product structure so that it can be selected in that way. However, this doesn’t seem to work. Does anyone know if it’s possible to have a non-inventory part as a component of a shop order? And, if not, does anyone have advice for firmware traceability when manufacturing devices? i.e. we want to know what versions of which software was installed when creating each lot. Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Inventory Revaluation - Weighted Average

How is it possible to revalue the weighted Average costed part?Imagine a scenario where the inventory part is set up at Weighted average and made several receipts. The part has been in inventory for several years without any recent transactions. Now the business understands the value of the stock has gone down. Is there a way to revalue the inventory so that the previous value will change and the lost value charged against PnL. This is possible under standard cost.. but the concern is how to do this under Weighted average method.

Manual Operation Quantity not on Manufacturing Routings

The feature of allowing an operation quantity on a shop order to be less than the lot size of the shop order was introduced in Cloud 23R2. This is controlled on individual shop order operations by the new attribute Manual Operation Qty (Yes/No). This will be beneficial when a partial quantity needs to run through a one-off rework operation on the same manufacturing shop order.Manual Operation Qty can be set on Standard Operations, Routing Template Operations, and Routings of type Repair, Disassembly, Remanufacturing and Disposition.Why is this feature not available on Routings of type Manufacturing? A common use case is when testing is its own operation, but the full lot size will never need tested and reported as the completed quantity. The ability to set this in the Routing rather than manually on the manufacturing shop order would be an improvement.
