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.

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 

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!

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 o

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

We just recently upgraded to IFS 10 UPD9.  In the past when we modified Standard Operations, we would RMB and Propagate Standard Operation Changes.  In the pop-up window the Replace Work Guidelines and Replace Tool Info were checked by default.  Now they are not.  Is there a way to make the default be checked? (see attached screenshot)

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 

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?   

Hi, In the current lay-out of our advanced planning board, all shop orders are showing line by line, in a step wise matter. Isn’t it possible to see them all next to each other, on one line?If i have many shop orders on different workcenters, i cannot see them all on 1 page. Also, it is possible to change to workcenter of a shop order in the advanced planning board, or do I need to do this in the application itself and reload? thanks!

Hi, For a customer who is in UPD 8, they are unable to search with 'Source Ref' field in Deposition shop order window. Has this been solved?

Community, A question for APB. do you know how to save my own Gantt Chart List in the APB drop down list? e.g. My Own Shop Orders.  please refer to the screen shot attached.  Thank you.Ron

In a shop floor, the time and quantity reporting may happen in different time phases. Lets say , some shop floor has sensory devices where once the final goods are coming out from the conveyer, the number of units being produced are immediately reported to the ERP ( so to the APS- Advance Planning and Scheduling System). In some instances, may be not so immediately but fairly quickly after one batch of items is made. Usually by the machine operator. May be later in n the day by the shop floor supervisor.  This could go even weeks and the items may be reported once the order is ready to ship out and reporting may be done as backflush operation.In any case,  The quantities and times are updated to the software system and the current production plan should reflect the effect of these reporting. Lets take a simple example, A production planner of metal fabrication company create a production schedule for 1 month   but constantly updated based on new customer order arrivals

Is there any way to set status 'Tentative' to a Routing whose status is 'Cancelled'?We have Routings whose status are 'Cancelled'. We'd like set them to 'Tentative' status for some reason.Is there any way to do it?(This is a case that a status before “cancelled” is “Plannable”. We know if it was “Tentative” before cancel, “Review” RMB sets its state “Tentative”.) Using APPS10Routings tab on Engineering > Routing > RoutingThank you.Kazu

Dear IFS Community, In my company we’re working on a solution to control documentation associated to a PO sent to external users. We’ve spotted that Document Transmittals serve our purpose. Do any member has experience on this? The idea would be to create a RMB, or an event, that when triggered from a PO would create a Document Transmittal with all Documents associated to the PO.  Thank you in advance for any input on this matter.
