In which way you plan labor capacity in advance?We have several labor classes and same persons might work this week in labor class 1 and next week in labor class 2 etc. Problem is shown in the picture below. Also, we know that in week 10 we will have 4 persons more in labor class 1, but those persons are not hired yet (so we are not able to create employees in IFS). Is there an possibility to add those hours to labor class capacity still?
When I try to setup navigation from within a Lobby element object like a matrix it fails if I’ve used an API call in the data object in IFSv9. How do I get it to use the selection criteria in the data object and accept the valid api function?This would be immensely useful to us. Thank you in advance for any tips or guidance.

Need your help in understanding the capability indices calculation.As per IFS, to calculte such quality indices, at least one Control Plan must exist, and at least two Analyses for a Control Plan line in this Control Plan must be in status “complete”. I totally agree with the first prerequisite but do not understand the second one.In fact, in our company, we are manufaturing small run of parts and some of them can only be manufactured once a year. And so, we still must calculate the Cp/Cpk/mean on one shop order and cannot wait the next year to have a second shop order on the same part to estimate the proportion of parts that are within specification limits.Am I mistaken or can IFS fulfiil our requirements in another way ?Thanks for your help
Hi allis there a way of moving all inventory in stock from multiple locations to a single location in a single transaction instead of moving each inventory line individually?we are using IFS APPS 10kind regardsJamie
We are using shop floor workbench and are wanting to capture Cost of Poor Quality by recording labor to a rework category. Our product usually has “fit” difficulties in assembly and would prefer to be able to clock into a transaction type of rework versus having to create a rework shop order. Does anyone else have any experience in this category?
We have postings from 4 different work orders that were transferred to the same customer order as order lines. On the work order, the 4 postings have a Cost Type of “Fixed Price”; Status of “Transferred”; Booking Status of “Authorized”; and CSS Type of “Posted”. The 4 connected customer order lines have a Supply Code of “Service Order” and a Demand Code of “Work Order”. These 4 lines were included in the same invoice created from the customer order. A freight charge was included in the invoice that shouldn’t have been so the invoice was cancelled and the status of the 4 customer order lines was changed back to “Delivered.” The incorrect charge on the customer order was corrected. However, the system will not allows us to create a new invoice for the 4 lines and the corrected freight charge on the customer order. In addition, we are unable to:Undo the Delivery of the 4 lines on the customer order because the system will not allow order lines with a Supply Code of “Service Order” to be
Hi, For a specific client need in IFS (not FSM solution) we have the following requirements : 1) RMA advance replacement : the company does not await for items under RMA to be returned before to exchange the part and send the new one to the customer2) RMA item quality inspection at arrival : the items need to be inspected (parts are company owned now, not client property anymore)3 options after inspection : A) ScrappingB) To be reconditionnedC) Supplier return if the part is still under warranty (The part can not be directly send to the supplier by the customer, previous analysis by the company is a mandatory step)3) If the part can be reconditionned, a repair action must be launched.4) Once the repair operations has been performed, the item must be identified as a repaired one and available to be resaled to another client or used for a maintenance operation (not necessalery for the same client as the one who requested for initial RMA)We are facing different topics : 1) RMA flow in
Hi, I would like to move several operations from one workcenter to another. These operations are from different shop order, but should stick together: I tried with operation blocks, but it doesn’t seem possible to just change the workcenter of the complete block? Is it? Thanks!
We have observed in "MS for Multiple Parts" screen, Period Day of the “lot size” is set to Finish Date (of Shop Order) + 1 working day. Lot size of Shop Order is displayed in "Work in Process" line in "MS for Multiple Parts" screen and the date of the lot size is displayed in column header.Is it possible to display the Finish Date of Shop Order in "MS for Multiple Parts" screen as well?Regardless of Schedule Direction (whether "Manual Scheduling" or "Backward Scheduling") the Lot Size of Shop Order is displayed in the Finish Date + 1 Day column on the "MS for Multiple Parts" screen.
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 ? Currently they have set all labor to be approved by the employee supervisor. Best Regards,Peshala
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
