Definition of Queue Time

Hi all,Our current Manufacturing Lead Times (as found in ‘Inv. Part’ - ‘Acquisition’) are not accurate.This is because the calculation used by IFS totals all the values we’ve specified, including the queue times (entered manually) for each work center in the routing of a part. This formula doesn’t seem correct. Case:Consider part, P, which has an MLT of 100 days.P could have 3 operations, at 3 different work centers, with 3 different queue times.WC1 - (queue time against the calendar in working days) = 10 WC2 = 20WC3 = 70 In isolation, the values for each work center are true. For example, if anther part, P2, has only WC3 in its routing, it may need to wait 70 days based on the loading of the resources to begin work. However, the original part, P, routed through WC1- 3 doesn’t have a lead-time of 100 days. Since the 70 working days of queue time is greater than the preceding operations, this would absorb the wait time for the 2 prior operations. So, the actual queue time for P would b

Why Aurena client's search pane does not filter the results as IEE?

For example:If you have the same part in two companies/sites. In the Aurena client, first set the search criteria to one site. Then run the search for the part number.Both the parts from the two companies/sites are fetched for the query results regardless of the previously set site search criteria.In IEE client this filtration is available and only the part corresponding to the filtration criteria which was set initially will be displayed.

NCR report. Inserting data error.

Hi all,Another one thats driving me up the wall.Apps10Requirement is to insert sysdate + 14 into target completion date when a user creates an NCR.First stop was writing a custom event to populate the field.I’ve made so many code alterations i cant even remember if this is the correct one now so use it as an example.DECLAREpragma autonomous_transaction; INFO_ VARCHAR2(200) := NULL; OBJID_ VARCHAR2(200) := NULL; OBJVERSION_ VARCHAR2(200) := NULL; ATTR_ VARCHAR2(200) := NULL; ACTION_ VARCHAR2(200) := 'DO'; DATE_ VARCHAR2(200) ;CURSOR GET_DATE_ IS select to_char((sysdate + 14),'DD/MM/YYYY')from dual;BEGIN OPEN GET_DATE_; FETCH GET_DATE_ INTO DATE_; CLOSE GET_DATE_; Client_SYS.Clear_Attr(attr_); Client_SYS.Add_To_Attr('TARGET_COMPLETION_DATE',DATE_, attr_); NON_CONFORMANCE_REPORT_API.modify__ ( INFO_,OBJID_,OBJVERSION_,ATTR_,'DO');END; If i dont add the pragma then i get the mutating trigger etc.If i add the pragma i get.

The delete option is disabled on the 'Part Tab' in the 'Quality Basic Data' window

In App10 Quality Management/Quality Control/Basic Data/Quality Basic Data - Part window the part lines cannot be deleted as shown below. However, this functionality is available in App9. Refer below screen capture. Any reason for this change in App10 when compared to App9?

Error: "Mrp process cancelled due to critical error. Please see error log. ORA-20105: MrpProcess.MRPSTOPERROR"

I was trying to create MRP (Perform Site MRP) and this is the error text mentioned in the background job.Environment: APP10 Regional TEST CMB I tried the same in APP10 TECH CMB as well. But received the same error twice.Does this happen because of an issue with the Customer Order? Any thoughts/suggestions on how to resolve this/ complete MRP would be highly appreciated. (There is a similar question for “Perform Project MRP” which is posted 11 months ago but with no answer.)

Quality Assurance Location

Is it possible to move an inventory part to a Quality Assurance location if the part was not received on a PO? Manufacturing would like to move non-conforming parts to a non-conformance location until final disposition is determined.

Consignment Inventory - Undo Customer Order Shipment

Hello all, We have a shipment we were trying to undo on a consignment order. Normally this is not a problem, but on this particular part, we are getting this message:“UNCODELOV is not valid for lot/batch master. Contact system support.” When I have tested this, it appears to be related to the lot quantity rule being set to many lots per production order in the master part record, but not 100% sure about this. Thanks,Rich

Unreleased activity

Hello, I got a problem with unreleased activity.The MRP runs and generates Shop Order Requisitions (SOR) and Purchase Order Requisitions (POR).The problem is that the MRP creates an MRP Planned Demand needs. This needs are related to Shop Order Requisitions in Status “Proposal Created” not accepted by the planning team. Exemple:I got two Finish manufactured products A and B with planning method A (MRP): Product A = (composed by one unit of B and other of C)Porduct D = (composed by one unit of E and other of F)So, the planing steps are:Execut MRP. Check Shop Order Requisitions (SOR) and there is proposals to Release 2 unit of product A and 3 units of product D for the same date. You decide that you will not accept the SOR for product A and ignore it. And Accept SOR of product B. You run MRP again. (Because I know if I change the demand of higher planning levels the demand of levels below will not automatically change. The proposals are fixed) Then you go to your Purchase Requisition li

The cost of scrap in shop orders

We want to become better at follow up on Scrap in shop orders. Is there any good way to see how much a scrap of 2pcs in operation 50 costs (based on cost on previous operations and operation 50, or based on pre calculated cost per pcs and operation)? The end goal:A report for the “High Scrap Cost” operations last 12 months where we can address the big money and focus on the top 50. Give imidiate feedback to each production group on their lobby that: The cost of scrap this week was XXX Your top 10 scrap this week was XXXX with a “year scrap” of YYYY (a table element) - Operators often have information on why there is scrap and what we can do to improve, we just want to provide them with relevant data at the right time so they start thinking about it. @Björn Hultgren ?

Does other users face problems while using both english and local language ?

Hi,In our company the Sales team uses English and the production team uses Danish.However the production team have now been forced to use English since an annoying error keeps occuring while they close orders in the WorkBench. If they change client language to English the error does not occur. Here is the error:FndPLSQLEnumeration encoding error !The client value ‘Manufacturing’ is not part of the Enumeration ‘ShopOrdCOde’! This error comes when the production uses DK language, and as you can see the PO Type is not translated in to Danish - it says ‘Manufaturing’ - however sometimes during the day it says ‘Produktion’ as if it “jumps “ between translation DK and English - as if not beeing stable.Has anybody else experinced something like that ? When we were running App’s 9 -we did not have the problem.Now at App’s 10 we have the problem :-(

Document does not print & cannot be seen in Report Archive

Hello all, I am reaching out because I do not know where to begin solving this problem. The issue is that a user account is trying to print a Handling Unit Content Label from the Shop Floor Workbench. No print dialog is shown when pressing okay in the last step. The report is not created in the Report Archive either. What is interesting is that from the window Handling Units it is possible to print this report. But, it it still does not create the report in the Report Archive. When I try this with admin access, I get the print dialog, can choose layout, printer etc. and it works as intended. My conclusion is that it might be permission related. Here is where I need help from the community. Where is permissions for allowing a user to print and create Reports located? Or is some other printing/report related setting missing?

'Manual Pegging of Shop Order Material Line'

Hi, I’ve been experimenting with 'Manual Pegging of Shop Order Material Line'. I’ve grasped the basic mechanics, which is to search for a part and assign it (by allocating the full qty. ‘available’ to the level above (selecting the relevant order no). The only discernible change is when I check ‘Inventory Part Availability’ the ‘Pegged’ column is whatever qty. you assigned (both for the supply and demand elements). Are there other benefits besides this? I hope there is, otherwise, you wonder what the point of this somewhat manual practice is. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Jay

Project Time Corrections

We use the Project Transaction, Create Correction Transaction to make project time/dollar corrections in Apps9. I cannot find anywhere in IFS that shows the date a correction was made. Everything references the original date of the time transaction. Is anyone familiar with a field that shows the date a correction was made? Thank you.
