Does IFS have a way to list Single Lot requirements on Product Structures? We currently machine parts that require a single lot of material to be used for the full order.  Is there a way to capture that requirement?  

Has anyone used the Define Modification in IFS in conjunction with CRO? I have returned units that require to be converted to another part number and Modification seems to be able to do that. Although I have read through the help, it is not very intuitive how to set up and create a task list on the CRO Repair line to actually carry out the mod. Grateful if anyone who has done this could share their experience. Thank you.

Hi Guys, In the Quality Management > Tool > Tool Instances page, in my “IFS Training Environment”, when the “Next Calibration Date” has passed, the validity does not change from “Active”. Is there a way to make the Tool Instance Validity change from Active to Hidden, when the Next Calibration Date has passed? Again, thanks very much for your assistance. Regards, Calibration Guy

What is the business logic behind setting the Create Cost Accounting to "No, Do Not Update the Project Cost" for Correction and Recreated Transactions  when you create the correction transaction at customer company end as shown below Whilst if you create a correction transaction at employee company end  Correction and Recreated Transactions fetches the value from corrected transaction   

We frequently change parts for other parts, a replacement part,... normaly to introduce a new component and phase out an old component. A revision change, a product improvement, a better cost, etc.When doing these changes, on a product structure, we increase the revision (with the new component included in the BoM),... but we would like always to consume all inventory of the old component, so that we do not leave "obsolete components in stock" ... with no future demands.We are investigating into the Alternate Components MRP Netting functionality, and miss one important thing: The MRP will account for the existing Qty on Hand (for calculating the needs for the new components), but will not use any of the projected stock of the old component. We many times face situation on serial manufacturing, where the new component will take some time to arrive, and we have current POs of the old components on the way (that cannot be

Hi All, i have a scenario where i would like to add a component with the same configuration into multiple structure alternate lines as a mass update, i would normally use the find and replace on the components per product view for this when it is a replacement but i want to do the same but to add a component not replace an existing one.does anyone know if it is possible without migration jobthanks in advance  for any help or advice

It is possible in IFS Cloud to do an “ Routing - mass update”?The customer need this mass upadate fro example:Change in all routings the text “prepare” to “XXYYY”Thanks for yours supportMilanko Simovic 

Hi,In my product structure, there are some components connected to the first routing operation. As the first step automatic reservation will be done. Next step should be  manual issue. (backflush not allowed) In case if user forgot to do manual issue, and  he or she tries to report the operation, then I expect an error message saying that sufficient operational materials are not issued.  I have used following settings, but still I don't get an error message, system backflush operational materials. I want to stop backflush.Settings on the Work center of the operation:Note: Operational materials  are not available in the inbound location that I have defined here. According to  the setting, backflush is not  allowed outside of the  defined inbound location. Which means, sy

Hi,     In one of our test environment we have the error “COMPONENT_FISNOT_SYS.INSTALLED must be declared” . The package should have been generated at the installation time based on the module_dependency_tab according to a previous post. In this environment the entry is missing. We can manually create the entry but is there any explanation to why it can be missing?Best RegardsChaminda

Hi,In a shop order we can see three  cost calculationsStandard cost Estimated Cost Actual CostFor a repair shop  order how this cost calculation is done  ?I can  see standard cost values are inherited from the part cost (cost rollup) of manufactured structure, which is not correct in my opinion. Also when I check  the actual cost, it has taken estimated cost of the components which are used  to manufacture the part. This is not correct. When doing  a repair , manufactured structure components are not used. Repairing is done for an already manufactured part. In repairing process, may be new components are not used at all and only few operations can be take place.I don't see the cost is done correctly in a repair shop order.  Can someone please  describe above  three cost calculations for a repair shop order (Standard, Estimate and Actual)?Note: I'm using IFS Cloud 22R1. 

HiDo we have any plans to develope this funcionality in the future? It is much lighter than VIM and could be useful for many customers but it is lacking some critical funcionality (should be possible for company rental assets, shoul be possible to keep the position/line no when changing the structure, multiple lots in one position etc)?Matti

We are having issues with freight being added to an intesite order and holding up the closing of the order and not transferring back to the PO.  Thoughts on why this would be happening? Our scenario is as follows:PO is created by Site A to get inventory from Site B. Customer Order is created from PO in Site B. Site B ships the items to the address for Site A via our shipping tool Freight tracking tab is populated with data Freight gets stranded right now on the customer order Thanks!

Shop order increases packaging requirements when assembly is scrapped during operation.Example: Assembly lot size = 100. Box on the product structure QPA=1. We need to produce a full lot of 100 so we use increase lot size on scrap option. 1 assembly is scrapped, lot size increased to 101.IFS calculates requirements of 101 boxes however a box is not needed for the scrapped assembly. Is there an option to not include scrapped assembly qty when calculating material requirements?  

Community, a simple question.May I know where to define the objects that will be showing up in below window, object drop down list? please see the screenshot attached. Thank you.

Is there any way to copy part characteristics to purchase parts characteristics in IFS9?If possible, could you please describe in detail steps. Thanks in advance.

In the Manufacturing Visualization in IFS Cloud (21R2) there is a button to navigate to Shop Order. This should either be "Shop Orders” or even better, be able to configure. 

Hi,I’m working with BPA on IFS Cloud 21R2 to automate the creation of a transport task when a pick list line is created.it work pretty well with an event connected with the creation of record on the IFS entity “ShopMaterialPickLine” and a BPA with a call of a projection InventoryPartInStockReservationsHandling.MoveResWithTransportTask.So, when the pick list is created, the transport task is created automatically and you can move the stock between the stock location and the shop floor location via a transport task (via Wadaco for example).Then, in a second step, the stock out of the component can be done. So, it’s perfect for some logistic process in factory (for example when you move an entire pallet to the shopfloor and consume a part of it on the shop order) But, my BPA workflow is working only for one line of the pick list.If there is more than one line on the pick list (2 lots on one component or 2 lines of component

Hi, How can we set for certain parts/operations, only certain workcenters are possible? That means for example if we use the visualiser and drag and drop an operation to a workcenter which is not allowed, IFS gives an error message? Example: Operation ‘Paint Job’ is possible in workcenter ‘Paint area 1’ and ‘Paint area 2’, however if we try to schedule it in workcenter ‘Assembly area’, IFS gives an alert/error.  Thanks!
