Can an LoV on quantity be available when a batch balance is at a ‘unreleased’ state with a tree structure node at a ‘proposal created’ stage?>> We have a situation where a customer is creating batch balances but in an ‘unreleased’ state and a tree structure at ‘proposal created’ stage, an LoV is triggered on the Qty.>> The customer claims that this was the norm when they were on App 10 UPD 3 and now that they have upgraded to UPD 10, they expect the same behaviour.>> When tested in our core environments (latest, UPD 10 and UPD 3 versions), I could not create a batch balance to with an LoV made available for the Qty. That field has only been editable so far, as per expected behaviour.>> Could there be any functional scenario within the application where the Qty field is triggering an LoV at an unreleased stage of a Batch balance? Thanks!Heshani 

We have a reoccurring scenario where we scrap many electrical components that are serial tracked. Unfortunately, it appears we can only scrap one serial at a time even though we can scrap multiple non-serial tracked parts at once. This is proving to be very time consuming. Has anyone encountered this scenario before? Any workarounds/solutions would be greatly appreciated. Current IFS environment: Apps 10 Update 9

Looking for information on how the hierarchy logic works when using conditional formatting on multiple columns.Example: In Customer Order, the planned ship date background should turn red if the date is in the past. If the status is Invoiced/Closed, the entire line should be greyed out. Right now the Planned ship date turns red on Invoiced/Closed lines. How do I make the Status trump the Planned Ship Date formatting?  IFSAPPS10 

Hi, Being a new here not sure if this is the right area but more general question about resource structures and groups.I am building a model to look for capacity and load over multiple sites and different site setups with workcenters and departments. I am planning to make similar resource structure for all sites and connect the workcenters and labor classes according to standard rule for each group. This to avoid any changes to individual sites’ specific settings and needs.I roughly know how to set this but just the concern that not braking anything on sites and also interested to hear how others have been using resource navigator and for what purposes -S-

Hi,We are trying to set up DOP in a production where we have Engineer to order on the top levels and standard sortiment parts in the lower levels. The top level structures changes continuously until the production starts. We currently use product structures in status “Plannable” until the engineering part is activated. Is there any way to create a DOP-structure from a plannable structure and continuously update it during the development phase? Or is there any other way to create demands for purchasing parts and planning during development of a deep structure?

Hello,I am on IFS Cloud 21R1 U3 and am experiencing some strange behavior with the part catalog. On the page “Parts” when I select some parts, a command “Document text” appears, where I can add a document text and this will be shown on purchase requisition report etc.However, for the majority of the parts, when I select them, the command “Document text” does not appear.The command in the page designer has a (for me) cryptic syntax on the Document text command für Enabled: {"and":[{"!=":[{"var":"record.DocumentTextNoteId"},null]},{"!":[{"method":["record.isDirty"]}]}]} Can anyone help out here? Is there a setting I am missing? THX

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?

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.    

Hi,In Aurena, on the Shop Floor Workbench page, is it possible to prevent the Shop Floor Employees from editing their already entered clocking records for a Shop Order? any help would be appreciated. ThanksJelilat

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.

Hello, I would like to reserve lot/batch No for by-product like I can do it for part No in this window: is it possible ?

Hello everyone, One of our customers wants to know, Is there any setting or basic data to be change or activate to have all IFS labor to be automatically approved upon entry for shop orders, work orders and projects ?

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 dear all!We will print Handling Unit Labels directly from Shop Floor Workbench.We start on Shop Floor Workbench, RMB - Approve Operation …. but no Handling Unit label are printed.The following points have been carried out:Open: Manufacturing\Shop Floor Reporting\Shop Floor Workbench Select a Work Center RMB „Approve Operation“ on a SO No. Insert „Qty to report“ – for example 1 – OK Receive Reserved Lots – OK Attach Parts to Handling Units for Receipt – activate „Print Handling Unit Labels“ - OK The Windows are closing, but no Handling Unit labels are printedAlso, we don't see any reports in the report archive, meaning that anything was printed at all.Only the following workaround is work, to create a handling unit label:Warehouse Management\Quantity in Stock\Handling Units In StockWe open the Handling Unit, RMD – Print this handling unit label – IFS created the label.Why does ifs not create a handling unit label? Have anyon a tip for us?Stefan

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!

(see below)Can anyone tell me what i am missing? regardsJamie
