Reserve more qty for a customer order than required

Hi all,Sometimes we would like to ship more on a customer order than required (E.g. 11 instead of 10). We do not want to change the qty on the CO, so we make changes to the picking list resulting in a negative pegged quantity. That is ok, but complicated - especially when we look at the api’s involved. We would like to change the reserved quantity to higher value than required, but that is not possible (screen shot below). Is there a way to reserve more qty without making a picking list first?

FMEA

Hi,Some questions about the FMEA module: For the same failure, I can add multiple effects and causes. However, to have a correct RPN score, I want to link a specific cause with a specific effect. Currently, IFS always links the cause with the first effect of the list. How can I link it with the second effect? Is there a way to include/see if a FMEA for a subassembly has allready been done in the final assembly? Example: I have subbassemblies A and B, which I manufacture seperately. I have Product structure for C, which consists of A and B. I would like to see in my structure for C that I allready have a FMEA for A. You can check by going to the structure of A, but if A is used in many other structures that wouldn’t be convenientUsing APP10 Thanks!

Purchase requisitions without lines generated from MRP

Hi,One of our customers is experiencing an issue. MRP is creating purchase requisitions without any lines (part or no part), so only the purchase requisitions header. But, this is ad-hoc (this happens occasionally).Is there a way that MRP can create purchase requisitions without any lines ?I have checked whether there is any custom task to delete the PR lines of certain parts, but there’s no. Thank you,

PMRP and planning method E

Are there special considerations when setting up PMRP and using parts with planning method E? We are running such a case in Apps 9 and it looks like the unit cost is calculated to 0, resulting in all demand being put together into one lot. It works fine with regular MRP. Since this is an old version, maybe this is a known and corrected bug?

Automatic login to IFS

Hello, I am wondering if there is a way to configure the IFS client to automatically login with a supplied user account and password? Currently, we have around 80 shop floor terminals across our manufacturing facilities. An issue I’ve seen is that in the event of a power outage, all of the SF terminals at the Site must be manually logged back in. I have been able to automate up to the point where I have the PCs automatically login to the Windows environment and launch IFS, but I have not been able to figure out how to pass credentials through and execute the actual login. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

material flow between WC

Community, Would like to know how you are handling material flow between work center inbound and outbound locations. we have inbound and outbound locations defined in each work center.in order to produce finished product ABC, prior to assembly, we have semi-finished products, A, B, C manufactured. basically, semi products A, B, C will stay in their outbound location of the its last work center, usually it is a Floor Stock location. when shop order for finished product ABC is released, we would like to see in the system, that A, B, C are all on a transport task and ready to move to final product ABC work center inbound location. How to make this happen? Thank you.

MRP component not planning at all? (check whether structure lot size of parent part points to different alternate)

MRP runs for a site, but the component whose parents/grandparents have demands does not plan (i.e. IPAP screen is blank). Why? Check the component’s parent part. If it has demands, but the component’s IPAP screen is blank, chances are the parent part’s Recipe or Product structure screen has an entry in the Structure Lot size tab pointing to an alternate (which is not *) where this component is not included. If you remove this entry from Structure Lot size for the parent, MRP will plan the component correctly. Other option is to make the component part of the non-* alternate of the parent (if was supposed to be there in the first place).

Block reserve/ issue from specific location/ location group

Hi, we are using apps 10 and would like to know if there is a way to block the reserving and issuing of material from either a specific location, location group or warehouse but still be able to receive parts to those location?couldn't see any check boxes on the Warehouse navigator or inventory locations.The reason for this requirement is we are looking into the shop floor employees issuing there own liquid raw material (paint) after processing a shop order but when using the ‘Manual Issue’ option on the work bench is allows the operator to issue material from all locations including the paint stores which we are trying to stop.regardsJamie

Reserve material on operation from Production Line?

Hi, We’re running IFS10 and want to make sure that material for a specific Work Center is reserved from a production line. This works fine for us if we don’t connect the material line to an operation. As soon as we connect it to an operation the reservation is unsuccessful. RMB on the row and selecting “Reserve” leads to below information message and the row is not reserved, notice that the row is connected to Operation 10. If we remove Operation 10 from the row and selectes RMB “Reserve” again the row is successfully reserved. In the Operations tab operation 10 has been setup.The Production Line has been setup with the produced part and the component we’re trying to reserve. And the Work Center has been setup using the production line. Are we missing anything, or is it not possible to reserve material from production lines if the material is connected to an operation number?

Does anyone know how data gets into the dme_ext_lot_batch_master_tab

Hi, we have a need to add in manufacture part number for the inventory part in stock record. That field comes from the dme_ext_lot_batch_master_tab. We have many inventory part in stock records however that do not have a record in the dme_ext_lot_batch_master_tab so I am update that field. I have not been able to find out yet what causes a record to be inserted into that table. We have old and new inventory parts that get added with and without that table being inserted into. Does anyone have any insight into this table? THANK YOU!!

Custom Event Email db Value

IFS9 - Production slots partial occupation

There is a case - lets say I have one production slot, limited by area. Some products operations occupies only 1/3 part of it, other 1/2 and others occupie whole production slot. I want to use CRP to see overloads.How can I reflect that in IFS?I know that there's no perfect solution but what ideas I had was:1 - Reflect production slots parts as a Work Centers and in routings create one or two or three parallel operations occuping different Work Centers2 - Reflect production slots parts as a Work Centers Resources and in routings create one or two or three parallel operations occuping same Work Center, and then assign prefered resource on Shop Order Operations level.Both solutions would require complicated SO's operations reporting (Client uses Shop Floor Workbench).I'm laso aware about other impact. What I would like to have is best solution for that case. All advice will be appreciate.

Parallel start a Task/Job Queue via C# client/PLSQL

Hi,we migrate our old jobs from an old UC4 installation into IFS. Most of them are simple databasejobs anyway, or to be precise, they call a batchfile which call a procedure in IFS. So that is a pretty easy and straightforward task so far, and we are happy it works in IFS10 that easy. Now I found a more complex problem. The user has a contextmenu entry, in our own tbwWindows, which starts a UC4 Job Queue asyncronously out of a PLSQL procedure. UC4 knows to queue the calls, so there was no need to think about concurrent jobs running, and the Jobs delete temporary tables while they run.My questions are When I use transaction_sys.deferred_call, can use use the task queue or do I have to make a simple task and create a procedure calling the procedures in batch?Is IFS smart enough, to not start the same job (queue) parallel? Concurrent access to the tables will be a problem for various reasons. If you have some documentation about it that I don´t have, it would be great if you could share i
