Receive shop order - change packing instruction

I have a scenario where we have created a packing instruction which we are assigning to a shop order to handle the receipt element pre-packed into the handling units. However, I have a scenario where I want to change the packing instruction at receipt so that received product gets built using a different packing instruction. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this as the receipt screen from shop order does not let you specify the packing instruction.

Repeated creation of Part Revisions during transfer

We are currently working through an implementation of IFS Cloud and are running in to an issue when transferring new manufactured parts during our practice sessions.Our current process includes the creation of new manufactured parts that may use some standardized manufactured components. We have released/transferred the revisions for these standardized parts.Our issue arises when we use one of these standard parts in a new top part structure, new revisions of the previously released components are being created every time we release/transfer a new top part. We are currently selecting “Single Level Transfer” when performing the Engineering Revision Transfer Action, is this an unintended consequence?

Master Scheduling for Configured Parts - continuation

Hi,Continuation of this topic: https://community.ifs.com/products-manufacturing-products-engineering-40/master-scheduling-for-configured-parts-30168---------------------------------Background:There is a configurable finished good, DOP handled. One of its major configuration characteristics is width. There are 10-20 different values (widths). For each width there is a phantom configured manufactured part created, DOP handled. Occurance of each width/phantom part is controlled by configuration rules. Under each phantom part (=width) there is a list of "real" components in different types - manufactured configured, manufactured non-configured, purchased. Subject:Forecasting using Master Schedule. Business would like to register forecasts in MS for each WIDHT. This is the level where forecasts are possible to establish. We cannot register forecast value for finished good part level, as this summarized information is too inaccurate and cannot be just disaggregated using 'Usage Factor'. We c

Aurena List Element click does not show active record

Currently our system is on IFS10-UPD15When a user selects a record on a lobby list element with the setting “Use data source condition” and page/BusinessActivity/Form the screen populates the form with the selected datasource data but does not select the record the user pressed on the list element. This has been misleading to the user.Should have selected this one and not the default first record Investigation trying to solve the issue with hard coding a key pass was unsuccessful.Will correctly select the record hard coded on click of a list element recordDynamically tried to pass active rowkey to the aurena form but the ‘ around the key throws an error. In our case we will proceed with creating a list element that filters to the key of the LU/entity, but it would be nice to have the record selector on the form auto select the list item the user selected on the lobby element.

InterCompany Part Shipment - No overhead to be charged

Hello We have many instances where we ship material to our internal companies - the business are trying to avoid having to correct or adjust the IFS transactions with a manual entry to reverse the Material Overhead added to the cost of the purchased part. I have looked using the part specific functionality, but the business does not wish to use alternative parts for this process - All help is very very much appreciated.  Kind RegardsPaula

Engineering "Buy" parts alwasy set to Purcahse Raw

If the Engineering Part Provide Code is "Buy" when you try to transfer it, always set it to Purchase Raw and Purchase Raw transfer template. Is there a way that I can set the default to pick the Purchase transfer template instead of the Purchase Raw transfer template?  I can change manually at the Transfer windows, but when you have a large number of parts this is not practicle.

IFS 10 Aurena Shop Floor Workbench Buttons

My company is trying to get more users over to our Aurena environment and one of the things we are testing is the shop floor workbench at the moment. We noticed that there is a button already labeled “scrap” which is actually “Scrap Part” in IEE. We have moved “Scrap Component” out from under the drop down menu to a button menu next to “Scrap” (which I have relabeled (“Scrap Finished Good”). Is there a way for me to configure the new menu item to have a trash can icon next to it and be a different color like “Scrap” is displayed? I just don’t want it to look like a regular menu item.

Demand Planner - Forecast Part issues

Hi all,Hope you are doing well!We recently upgrade from IFS 8 to IFS 10.We have an issue with the forecast part - historical data window, we migrated the data in periodical transactions table since the beginning.We have been in apps 10 for several months, but we haven’t been successful to run the demand planner because it wasn’t grabbing the data from the new months that were done in apps 10, the forecast part is not reflecting the sales for the new month's even that we have been running the aggregate task each month and following same processes as we were in apps 8.Now all forecast parts in historical demand are showing zeros in some periods after we ran the Aggregate Daily, Qualify Parts and Complete Writeback to Database, even dough we already migrated that info. (Screenshot #1)If we “Create Forecast” in IFS10, DP will consider all zeros in this screen and will give us a super low forecast for the following months, same for all parts. (Screenshot #2)Have you experienced something si

Can anyone explain how Apps9 calculates the next count date? I’ve an example below that I can not fathom out how it has calculated it.

Planning method from engineering

Hi, Can we set the planning method in the transfer template, so the inventory part has it directly and it’s not just A? In the help, it says it does, but where? Or which field should be added using Page designer? Part Transfer TemplateThe part transfer template is a pre-defined template of inventory part information. It can include part planning information and the planning method. The part transfer template also includes inventory and manufacturing part attributes. It further includes attributes that control the transfer of alternate components defined in engineering. The template can be used in the the conversion from engineering parts to inventory parts, based on the part type. If the template does not exactly match the desired attributes, you can select one of the inventory part windows and update the information.

Manually added blow through part gets removed in MRO

One of our MRO customers are having an issue where, when you manually add a blow through part (Type K) in an ASO material line and then include a random part to the same work scope from the Disposition Summary Screen; after the releasing of the Interim order structure, the manually added blow through part gets removed.Kindly explain why this is happening as I believe think this an incorrect behavior.

Auto Set Values for Inventory Parts

Hi all,I want to automatically set values for inventory parts (these parts are created via 3rd party software) and sent to IFS. I tried this with a custom event and custom procedure, however, it doesn’t seem to trigger once the parts are sent over to IFS. This should trigger based on if the part meets certain criteria such as:Type Code Site StatusAny thoughts on how to achieve this outside of a custom event which then calls custom procedures?Thanks,R

Once a DSO is approved again with a different disposition code, in the ASO - Material tab the same material line is created again.

Please refer the test below,1.Transact a DSO to Approve state where the part is serviceable i.e. part is reserved to the Assembly side.2. Go to the parent ASO of the DSO, Search for the material line.3. Unreserve the material line.4. Reserve the line using the RMB option Manual Reservation. The same serial captured during disposition should be reserved.5. Based on the above transaction '4', the Structure Line No is removed.6. The consequence of the same is such - One can reserve the DSO and once the DSO is approved again with a different disposition code, in the ASO - Material tab the same material line is created again. Hence there is duplication of the same material line. Any comments on this observation?
