Avoid closure of operation/shop order without reporting time

Hi, in our business, every shop order needs manual labor. We would like that shop orders cannot be closed if no time has been reported, is that possible? We sometime have operators who mistakenly approve the wrong shop order in the time clock or the SFW, we would like to avoid this.

MSO: HR Integration?

Hi, 22R2 and onwards brings the MSO feature, to replace APB in the end. A major drawback of APB was the lacking integration with HR. Employee schedules and rules are not used for APB, which means that hollidays for example are not taken into account for the capacity calculation of a certain labour class. Is this resolved with MSO? Practical example:We have labour class “Welders”. The labour class consists of 2 persons, Person A and Person B,, each working 8h/days 5 days/week. That means, we have a capacity of 16h/workday in the labour class Welders.Person B will go on leave in week 43. This is entered in IFS, in the HR module. However, APB will not see this drop in capacity. In week 43, you will still have 16h/day capacity for labour class welders, while in reality you will only have 8h.Will MSO be able to solve the issue?

DME purchase receipt error

What is the difference between the purchase_receipt and dme_purchase_receipt either API or TAB? We recently installed DME in our APP9 version and are having issues with receiving some type 6 POs. In register PO arrivals screen, Error Message: Field [RECEIPT_NO] is mandatory for Dme Purchase Receipt and requires a value. Receipt No is assigned by IFS at the time of receipt so we cannot receive some PO’s but the majority are received with no error.

Shop floor workbench : Unable to issue multiple materials

Hi,Please refer the test plan below (attached with screenshots) and Advise.This was observed in 23R1.Create a Product structure with a manufactured part consisting of two or more purchase parts.Create an operation for the manufactured part under routing and link the two purchase parts for the operation Create a shop order for the part and release the shop order Go to shop floor workbench and attempt to issue materials for the operation in the relevant shop order Notice that the system only allows the user to issue only one material at a time. If the user needs to issue the other material to the operation, they have to start over from the beginning as there is no option to select multiple materials to be issued at the same time. For an operation with a considerable number of materials this could cause more time to the shop floor workbench user as they have to move back and forth to issue materials.Could this be considered for a future enhancement where the user would be able to issue

Split Shop Order Permissions

Hi,Is it possible to give a set of users access to split shop orders while removing access to create new shop orders?My initial idea was to revoke SHOP_ORDER_API.NEW_ database object, but this would prevent them from splitting shop orders too.Any idea how to restrict creation of new shop orders while retaining access to split existing orders? Thanks,Dulshan.

Problems copying to cost set one

Hi all.I have calculated the cost set 12 for all inventory parts on a site and all was right. After that, I have copied all the inventory parts from cost set 12 to cost set 1. The job finished ok.But, the result is that all the inventory parts have not been modified. I do not know why. But, if, manually, I copy the cost for an inventory part no copied in the previous process, I mean, RMB in Part Cost window, the cost is copied well.Does anyone know why? Is the same process running from the menu for all inventory parts as the job running from Part Cost window

Apps 10 QM - Control plan ; Material Line Alterations in Shop Orders

Hello Community,we have the following question: Company A has recently acquired Company B, and now Company B is to be integrated into the IFS system. In the past, Company B had the flexibility to change bill of material (BOM) positions in production orders when items were not available (e.g., alternative products). Since some assemblies now are produced for A, and have regulatory requirements, it is crucial to prevent parts from being replaced without the knowledge of Company A.Testing it with Control Plan does not recognize such replacements and allows the complete posting of the production order. Even restrictions on allowed BOM changes in Site level do not lead to the desired outcome, as material positions in the Shop Order can still be easily modified.Is there a way to achieve the desired behavior differently? How can Company A be informed or Company B prevented from making changes to material positions in the production orders?Many Thanks,Alex

Un-issuing Error from Shop Order

Hi Community, Has anyone seen this Error message beforeA couple of things to note that is not as obvious from this error. The customer is not using tracked structures on any part, this has been checked. This error message is off the back of a RMB in header, Unissue All to original location. this also happens on the Manual processes. Please note the SO has nothing reported on ops and has nothing received in. This order was previously Parked. Any thoughts would be very much appreciated.

Netting from a confirmed purchase order

Hi, From a DOP, we can net into a inventory supplied purchase order. However, only if that order is in a planned or released status. Once it’s confirmed, IFS will not net it. You can manually peg it, but no netting. Is this normal behaviour, or somewhere a setting? It doesn’t sound logical to me why IFS skips confirmed purchase orders in the netting proces?

Purchase Order inter site revisions - APPs9

Hi Community, We have come across an ‘’issue’’ with inter site orders being raised under the buyers site part Rev A on the PO, then being sent to the supplier site via MHS and approved by the supplier. This then creates the Customer Order with the sales part line but does not consider the Revision Number (normal behaviour)When using MHS the system will ‘stop’ the incoming order if the sales part number does not exist on the supplier site. My first question is, is there a parameter or setting that prevents a PO to CO conversion if the revision does not exist. In our case, the Engineering part exists as Rev B on buyer site and Rev A on supplier site. Without this being identified and the CO demand being released, the system generates the Supplier Shop Order to produce a Rev A part. This is and can be booked in and shipped off as Rev A against a Customer Order with a connected Purchase Order which stipulates a Rev B Part. When this arrives at the Buyer Site, the purchase order is booked

APB - Shop Floor Workbench

Hello community, 1. When assigning operations to persons as resources in APB, these should further be reflected in SFW when logging in as the employee and when “My assigned Operations” is turned on. For example, I assigned operation no 102-*-*-45 to Alina in APB, but this is not reflected in SFW - My Assigned Operations: 2.What happens when selecting this in APB? Load Options - Shop Floor Reporting. Thank you,Alina

Set Default Routing from Alternates

How can I update the default (*) routing from a set of alternates? For example, I have a new machine which is now the preferred manufacturing route. The old machine is still in use and is a valid routing, so I won’t retire this routing and up rev. I’ll create an alternate routing for the new machine at the current rev, but I want to make this my default. Using IFS V9

Pingdom has capability to send a payload to Webhook with status change details from success to failure. Basically, we are trying to create IFS incident automatically when Pingdom generates an alert. Has anyone done something like this?
