In a MRO Shop order, we define the quantity of a material demand in the  “Qty Per Assembly’ field. when we try to reserve the material , the system allows to reserve more than the qty mentioned in the Qty per Assembly field. at this moment system only throws an information message.  after the first issuance of material, system allows to directly issue any quantity of material ( based on the availability in inventory ) to the shop order. at this point of time, system doesn't throw any error. Is there any way to configure the system to stop this behaviour such as site level setting to control it for MRO flow.As my understanding this is a standard functionality required for Batch Process Manufacturing. Any insight would be appreciated.

Hello IFS community,I dont see the difference between tardy orders and passed due orders in MSO. (illustation attached)I looked at the start, finish and need dates but i dont see a logical conclusion.Can someone help me pleaseThanks in advance 

Hello, On the DOP structure, all DOP are close, All Shop Order are also closed, exept one. Still at Started status. I guess it has been restarted. How can I proced to close this shop order. Thank you for your help.  

Hi,I have a part with four routing alternates, each of them using a Min Lot Size Based Qty and each of these alternates have an operation connected to a different Work Centre. The Phase In Date  for the routing and Validity Period are set to 25th July.I ran the MRP and CRP and here’s the error message I get when trying to convert a Shop Order Requisitions into a Shop Order. The Work Centre has capacity for that date-the total time for this shop order proposal would be less than an hour-.What did I do wrong ? 

Hi,We have a factory where we blend chemicals, we have four blenders of various sizes.I’ve created a Work Center and added the four blenders as Resources. I’d like to limit the lot size-in a shop order- each resource can handle. E.g. Resource B can’t handle a shop order of 5000 litres as it can only contain 1.000litres. Thanks for your help.   

HelloI need to scrap a component with a serial number on a production order. How can I indicate which serial number should be scrapped? Thank you for your help.

I have a shop order where there is no standard material cost showing up. I have looked at other parts with the same operation and those do have the costs as expected, but even historically, this one part without the standard material cost doesn’t appear to ever have had it on the shop orders for previous runs. I’m assuming this is a setting on the part somewhere, but I am unable to find anything. Has anyone else run into this before, or know of a setting that controls the standard cost on shop orders? The other cost buckets have standard cost present, it is just the materials costs missing. I have highlighted where the material costs normally show up below: 

Is there a way in IFS Cloud to set an item as default as non-consumed at part level instead of doing this at the product structure level?If not, where in IFS cloud can done a mass update for all the product structures the articles is used in. 

I have a question regarding an electronic Kanban circuit. Is it possible to directly deduct the inventory to a cost center once the transport task has been executed, instead of transferring it to a location? This is to prevent incorrect stock levels on the shop floor, particularly for small packaging materials and fasteners. I would like to add the cost of these materials to the product cost by applying a surcharge.

Greetings! Does anyone know how to create a “folder” in sales rules to put multiple one lined rules into? I have a picture below of a “blue folder” that I was wondering how to create just to make the sales rules a little more organized in Apps 10  

When you have a shop order with materials is there any way that we can aggregate the materials to one handling unit and store as Pallet, Container etc.

Greetings!I ran a “evaluate rules” on a Interim Demand I created. I received the following error but do not know what it means or how to fix it. The error is stated as” Formula Execution” It lists out a long “Decode” sequence with the tail end of it stating “INTO:result from Dual ORA-01476 divisor is equal to zero” I have no idea what that means  

In the product structure, it is possible to set a default value for whether a component item is a standard planned item, but in the configuration structure, there is no default setting for whether a component item is a standard planned item. 

We have an issue where Parts are being reserved to a Customer Order (via scheduled Create Customer Order Reservations job) 24 hours before the parts were produced on the Shop Order for the same Parts. I have a copy Pick List referencing the lot batch from the Shop Order, and the final step of the Shop Order wasn’t reported and the Parts received into stock until more than 24 hours after the reservation took place. As far as I can tell there was no partial Shop Order Reporting and the full quantity on the Shop Order was received into stock at the same time, but 24 hours after the goods were reserved. There did not seem to be any pegging of Customer Order to Shop Order and the CO Supply Code was Invent Order.  Is there any way that a batch can be reserved and appear on a pick list, prior to being reported on a Shop Order?

Please advise if there are any limitations on the Tree View in Part Navigator?We have found a difference between the child data shown in the tree view vs the child data shown in Consists of:6 Child Rows are not shown in the tree view but are present in the consists of structure. When using sort code order (which was the initial assumption that it had reached a limitation), it shows that most are at the bottom of the Sort Code but NOT ALL. Why would these views be different?Is there a limitation on number of rows shown on the tree view? Thank you in advance

Production schedule question.  I have a production schedule part that can run on 3 different lines. On the three production lines upon which I can run the part, I use a percentage of .33.33 and .34.  If the total amount of the part to be produced obtained from the part's master schedule is not easily divisible by 3 and I run MS Calc, I am getting a mystery 1 unit production schedule.  Can anyone explain this?  I think it is due to the fact that the total doesn't yield a whole number when multiplied by the percentage and yields a 1 piece production schedule to ensure that the system is planning for ALL of the requirement.  For example, MS says we need 903,168 pounds.  That means production line A (33% and Line B (33%) get 298,045 each (remainder of .44 ponds each) and line C gets a production schedule of 307,077 pounds (remainder of .12 pounds.  The remainders of all 3 lines add up to 1 pound.  Both the production schedule item and the component item have quantity calc

In IFS Cloud documentation under NATO Stock Number (NSN) it states the following:It is possible to connect the parts in IFS/Part Catalog to a NSN. The following rules are applied in connecting parts to a NSN:Can someone point me in the right direction to do this, I can’t find it and nothing comes up when I do a search Thank you

In IFS Cloud, mass reservation of Shop Orders fails completely if any Shop Order in the batch encounters a material shortage.This issue occurs when the part has “Allow Many Lots per Component” = FALSE.Even if other Shop Orders have valid inventory, they are not processed.The system stops the entire reservation process and shows an error only for the failing Shop Order.As a result, planners must manually reserve each Shop Order, which is not feasible for large volumes. The error: Does anyone else follow the same mass reservation process and encounter this issue—where the entire process stops due to one Shop Order failing (e.g., because “Allow Many Lots per Component” is set to FALSE and there's a material shortage)?If

When working with Engineering, there are a couple of defaults that can be set:For the majority I have an explanation, but for POS and REPLACE_REVISION, I can't find any documentation. Anyone that can help me out, what the function is of these defaults?

Dear Community,I’m trying to create Shop Orders for subcomponents using DOP automatically  but I’m missing something. I want to ensure that when I create a Shop Order for a parent part (e.g. C), the system would automatically generate Shop Orders for its subcomponents (e.g. A and B) in the required quantities. Supply types for all parts are set to DOP. But DOP Header and DOP Structure are not automatically generated.What am I missing? Thank you.

Greetings!I ran a Interim Order in IFS apps 10. However I keep seeing the errors below regarding “no value” However, when I look into the Part Config I do see values. 

Greetings!Anyone know what this means in IFS apps 10? I ran a evaluate rules in interim demand header, but this came up  

Greetings!Trying to run a interim demand header in IFS apps 10 but the following error keeps coming up. 

 HIWe are currently reviewing and validating costing behaviour in IFS Cloud, and we need detailed insights into the following specific system cost parameters: KEEP_MCA_SNAPSHOT USE_START_DATE_FOR_SO_VAR UPD_INV_EST_MTRL_COST COPY_WC_LC_COSTS COPY_SUPP_DELOH For each of these parameters, we are looking for the following information: Purpose & Functionality What is the role of this parameter in the costing process? System Behaviour How does enabling this setting influence standard cost roll-ups, cost updates, or transaction recording? Activation Requirements Are there specific modules, data configurations, or s

We have designed Order Report Excel Output, when we are running the report error is coming "PDF Not Generated" in Aurena & "Stream was not readable" through the IEE. It's a Data Rendering Limitation. If we are limiting the data less than or equal to 58,000 report is generating. Also, if we are designing the report through the designer then report output is coming in PDF for whole required (Pages 15,000 approximately. I am attaching the screenshot in a sequence for reference
