Hi, is there a way to put a negative value on a non-inventory sales part in the customer order screen? Thanks

Hi All, I would like to get a Lot/Batch No created at receipt and include Date & Time. Do we have a known solution for this or is it part of future releases/road maps?My customer run App 9

Hi,We are in a process of setting up DOP and we believe basic data setup is fine as we set the default supply type of the manufactured part as DOP (In Planning Data tab of Inventory Part window). Idea is to manufacture Top Part MYO-00120-A using couple of manufactured parts including some raw materials (purchase parts).However, when we released the DOP, it does not create shop orders or purchase orders automatically.  Why shop order details are not shown in RMB option or shop orders do not get created? Also Purchase Orders are not generated too. But it shows inventory reservation for Top Part MYO-00120-A.Can you please advise whether we have missed any setting? Thank you!

Good Morning, We currently use Control Plans for any non-serialised items (Categorical) set as a basic pass or fail within the category ID which works fine.  We would like to expand this out to our serialised products using the same pass/fail controls but during our testing the analysis is requesting us to add in the serial number, but the list of values is empty.  Any attempts to enter any information in the Serial No field is met with errors which we expected as the system can’t see anything to cross-reference against in the list of values.Would anyone know what steps we are missing please ? Any help would be gratefully appreciated. Thankyou in advance

In Apps10, I want to find what  value is changed when the user RMB’s on the screen ad selects “Change Company”. It isn’t User_Profile_SYS.Get_Default('COMPANY',<Username>) FROM DUAL because when I change company and execute that in SQL it gives me the company name I changed from, not the one I changed to. I tried to capture it in the Debug window but it doesn’t seem to show it.I need to know the name of the table it is stored in (if it is in fact stored in a table).Thank you for any replies.

Community,  I never take care of these 2 fields in Engineering Part Revision window, tab Revision, see attached.Dev Lev Desc Mfg Preliminary Changebut I do notice their values are changed to some extent.wondering the logic behind it.  Thank you.

We’ve been trying to figure “why” we’re unable to create a repair shop order from CRO Lines.Rev 09 is “obsolete” and no one here knows or has see the (*) Structure Type “F” error or where to look for it. Can someone help? 

Hi, Is it possible in manufacturing to include an extra paramater to define the capacity, besides hours? In the assembly industry, you often have a big hall where the assembly takes places. Multiple orders take place at the same time. However, not every order needs as much as room as the other.Let’s say our hall is 100m². Order A takes 50m² for 20 hours, order B takes 25m² for 8 hours and order C takes 10m² for 40 hours.We now use 85m² meters of the 100 available. So if could theoritically still plan an order that needs max 15m².Is there an option to visualise this?  

It frequently happens that we have a need to adjust and add same indirect result or clocking for many employees. The ways we have have found always requires this to be entered by each Employee. This is very time consuming when you have a big group of employees. Is there a way to do this more efficient, e.g. mark multiple employees and automatically assign same clocking/result?

In Aurena shop floor workbench, we use predefined filters. One of the workbenches will show the shop orders in card and list view. When you switch to table view it shows no data. What would cause this?

Hi. We keep keeping the same error message when trying to stop production via the shopfloor work bench. The operations have been signed off and there is not inspection sign off.Does anyone know what is causing this? regards Jamie 

Hello, I am attempting to delete an inventory location from IFS, but it states that the location is used in Shop Order Material Allocation. I have not seen this message before and I am wondering how I can search for these 12 items to remove them from the system. Any guidance would be appreciated!   

Hello, I have setup Employee Qualifications setup to prevent unqualified users from clocking into a Shop Order for a specific Part Number. However, I have noticed if an unqualified person logs into any Team, they can clockin and report pieces on a job they are not qualified to run. I have checked the forum and I found a post that seems to indicate this is correct system behavior. However, that seems contradictory, as what would be the point of setting up qualification requirement if you can simply bypass them by joining a random team? Do qualifications not get considered when a user is logged into a team or is there a way to enforce that for Team clocking? Any guidance would be appreciated. 

In a MS Level 1 part in Master scheduling After “Run MS – One Part” or per Scheduled Task changes at Forecast 0 or Forecast 1, a necessary recalculation of new forecast is not given.Would like to know your opinion about this behaviorMS Level 1 partRun MS-one part – the forecast is converted in fixed proposalsModify forecast 1 (entered 20 pcs)No recalculations observed without Run MS-one part Start MS-one part but no recalculations observed, where a recalculation is expectedHowever, after changing date of Calculation Date for example to 1/1/21 and recalculating to actual date it works

Hello, I have noticed that my PM Calendar Generation has stopped in 2021. Prior to that, the Maintenance Plans were generating without issue. I have checked the Plan, which is set for 2023: The PM Actions are setup with different intervals:The Calendar itself is valid:However, the system has stopped planning them:I have noticed that if I RMB and select regenerate plan, it does work:The scheduled database task is setup with the following parameters, which have not been changed since it was configured originally.  I’m not sure what the issue could be at this point. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Hello!Anyone ever add custom text to screens that are purely informational? There are a few business processes that I’d like to set rules for or reminders to people. Heck, I’d like to even explain the page for people when they visit it. I can’t figure out how to have custom fields or info cards do this.No big deal if it isn’t possible, just thought I’d ask the community if someone else has done it. It’ll save me having to explain how things work for the hundredth time.IFSAPP9 by the way, plans to upgrade to 10 or cloud in next year.

Can we use MRP planned Spare Parts in MS ? I am trying to generate MS forecast for Parts which are Spare Parts . But can we actually use the MRP planned Spares in MS?

I know, it might seem not logical, but I'm trying to get a sense of what the function of the GTIN number is in a Non-Inventory Sales Part.I have added a Free Format GTIN on a Master Part. Let's say R-001If I check the Non-Inventory Sales Part, it shows the R-001 as the GTIN. Nice.When I want to add the sales part to a sales contract > line > item I have an option to search the parts by GTIN. Nice. However it seems only to pickup the Sales Parts (so the inventory related). Same on adding a non-inventory sales part on a work order task.Am I missing something?I can't select upon GTIN in a Customer Order Line that I want to add (there are only the part and description in the find option of sales parts which I think is remarkable low).

When creating a Resource Routing you can right mouse click and ‘Copy Routings from Manufacturing’ . However once the resource routing you cannot then copy , or update. The only way I can do this it to delete the Resource Routing lines then copy again at individual MS level 1  part level.Is there a standard job you can run to update the the resource routings from the current Manufacturing ones?
