Hi!Question from a customer who is upgrading from APP9 to IFS Cloud. Is there a way to have the setting for Default Backflush ONLY to have affect in Shop Floor Workbench and NOT in Receive Shop Order manually?The background for this question is that the customer has developed a way to work for a specific flow (injection molding) in APP9 where it is possible to set the Default backflush setting isolated to SFWB (via RMB properties => Default values for Approve operations). They do not want it to be marked by default in Manual Receive Shop Order but I haven’t found a way to prevent this in standard IFS Cloud if the Default setting is marked. It is not possible to have the Reserved/Issue Method for the components set to manual since the material is in fact backflushed when the operation time is reported when they receive info from their MES regarding how many parts that have been manufactured (every 15 mins). It can take between 4-72 hours before the parts are being received into stock

Hi All,  We are currently looking into ways of applying  Export License more user friendly. Currently when an order is created the user must RMB on the line and then enter the country code and then click “Find and Connect”, this is happening for each product that requires a license. We are experiencing some pain points on when a product does not require a license in one country, but in another country it does and the same process must be followed to have a license connected even though it is not required.  Has anyone tried to automate this process or come up with a work around that doesn’t involve so many clicks?  Thanks, Ashlyn

Currently our system is on IFS10-UPD15When a user selects a record on a lobby list element with the setting “Use data source condition” and page/BusinessActivity/Form the screen populates the form with the selected datasource data but does not select the record the user pressed on the list element. This has been misleading to the user.Should have selected this one and not the default first record Investigation trying to solve the issue with hard coding a key pass was unsuccessful.Will correctly select the record hard coded on click of a list element recordDynamically tried to pass active rowkey to the aurena form but the ‘ around the key throws an error. In our case we will proceed with creating a list element that filters to the key of the LU/entity, but it would be nice to have the record selector on the form auto select the list item the user selected on the lobby element.

Shop Order Materials behaves different in Aurena: using IEE the overview includes closed Shop Orders as well as Shop Order Lines Closed; using Aurena, the table doesn’t include items with either status.Any advice about how to make it work in Aurena the same that IEE?This table is important for tracking usage variations of the components (required vs actual).

Hi, how can we see in an overview which charachterics have an effect on which components? Case: After the configurator has been completed and CO is released, the customer wants to change an option he choose. We would like to see for that specific question, what effect it has on the generated structure.So if we could see the ‘component rules’ in 1 overviewable screen, that would allready help. Thanks!

I was looking for input and an explanation of the IFS Manufacturing Cloud Version.  I’m hoping to understand how long the cloud version has been readily available and if the base code behind it was redo from version 10.  If there are many companies currently using it(let’s say more than 50), or is it still in its infancy stage?

Hi All, Environment: 21R2. As highlighted, the Account has been set as ‘60111’. In the ‘Project Accrual Posting Analysis’ window, it can be seen that the relevant record is showing Account <60111> which was set through the ‘Project Accrual’ window and not what is set in the ‘Posting Control’ window <70147>.  Is there a setting to override the Default Value that is set in ‘Posting Control’ window and display the Account that is selected in ‘Project Accrual’ window? Best regards,Devni

I have a user that is requesting that the default planner ID from ENG Part be set to one user for manufactured parts and a different user for purchased parts.  The only place I know to set this is on the Sites Per User screen under Default Planner ID.Is there a way to have two based on the type of part? TIACindy
