ECO footprint calculation

We want to know how one of the calculation in Eco-footprint is done in relation to the status of a product structure and is it possible to adjust this calculation?The referred calculation is this, highlighted in the screenshot.We observe the calculation only includes product structures in status buildable. We have multiple product structures which are used by our suppliers and thus never set to buildable. We want to have that included in the calculation.Could you please confirm, the calculation only includes product structures in status buildable?Is it possible to modify the calculation to include product structure with any status?

Backflush Hierarchy

Hi, I’m aware that when using the backflush method, IFS uses a hierarchy to decide from where to issue the materials from. However, which location will IFS pick first within the same hierarchy level?In the screenshot below, assume we have 2 picking locations with materials, location 201092 and 1. How will IFS determine from which one to issue first? For example, the material closest to expiry date or .. ? Assume there are no reservations or whatsoever.

Shop Order Lot Size not allowing partial (Decimals)

We have shop orders that the lot size will be a partial number (process manufacturing).  When entered into IFS and then saving it will round the number up.  Is there a setting I’m missing that I need to set so this does not happen?  The partial is critical in that the raw material requirements are designed to use full quantities (full pallets or big bags) and this calculates the number to require more than what we want.

Closing Audits with attached NCRs

We use the audit functionality to perform production line audits.  NCRs are then created and connected to the audit.  Some of these NCRs require action others do not.  We would like to be able to close the audit independent of the NCR status.  The documentation I've found so far states this is possible, however, it's not allowing us to close the audit's without first closing the NCRs.  This is an issue for us because while the audit is complete, the NCR may need to remain open until the non conformity is corrected.Can you please provide documentation on how to close audits with attached NCRs without having to close the NCRs first?Regards,Peshala.

Migration Job - create output file

Hello, I set up a migration job which creates a csv file and exports it on a file location on my computer. The job does get executed and the information message says that it exported the file (see screenshots). The problem is that no file is created.Even if I delete the File Path location, the job gets executed without an error message. Any ideas where to check?Thanks, Golo

Prevent Over Receive of Shop Order

Hi All, I am attempting to prevent a user from over receiving a shop order qty that is greater than the completed qty on the operation steps. I have tried using Milestone Operation (on the first Op step) and also tried setting Operation Over Report to Not Allowed. However, I am still able to shop order receive over the amount that has been reported on the actual operation steps. Is there a way in IFS to prevent this behavior? Thank you!

How to cut one serial number (part A) into two serial numbers (part B)?

Hello, We have encountered an interesting issue. I wonder if anyone has a solution to this.  Process which we would like to have in IFS is:Company manufactures Part A that is serial tracked and it should stay this way.In most cases Part A is a finished good, but sometimes is further processed.If further processed, Part A is a component to another manufactured Part - B. Part B is also serial tracked and it should stay this way.Part B, in simplification, is made by cutting one piece of Part A into two pieces of Part B.So, from one serial number of Part A we receive two serial numbers of Part B. #There is no way to create Product Structure of Part B including component Part A, as qty in assembly cannot be 0.5 for serial tracked parts.#There is no way to receive serial-tracked By-Product.#There is no way to issue on Shop Order (lot size = 2) just one piece of A and receive 2 pieces of B.Running out of option here, or is it just lack of imagination? :) I'd be grateful for any ideas.Regards,

Auto Reserve and back flush

Hi, using APPS 10 and experiencing a slight issue with the ‘Reserve/ Issue from Loc’ specified on the product structure not being pulled through to the shop order (see below).the structure revision on the product structure and shop order are the same and on the inventory part ‘Reserve/ issue from:’ is set to Only Specified Location to ensure it only reserves and issues the material from the correct location (below).When checking the Reserve and Backflush Visualization on the material line within the shop order is shows there is no locations acting as priority to reserve from.does anyone know what else could be casing this?regardsJamie

Shop order output

Hi, I’m not sure if its even possible, but can a shop order output several different part numbers?i.e shop order is for a family of parts to restock a shelf, so the parts produced would need different part numbers, so that they can be consumed by other orders.Thanks

Inventory Couting - report "added" parts (existing in physcial stock, but not in DB)

Hi, for IFS Inventory Couting  -  Coute Report, does it support the following situation:​​​​​​​1.  Parts actually existing in Location physcially,  but not in IFS DB, how to report this?2.  Same like above , for Lot/Serial managed Parts,  does it support above situation? In Reality ,  most case is , the parts put on the wrong location/shelf.eg: In IFS DB,  Part-A in Loc-1 ,       while physcially,  Part-A in Loc-2.For IFS, we can report in Loc-1 - Parts-A : qty 0while we CANNOT report part-A  in Loc-2. How we deal with this?
