Hi,When the users/employees are starting productions on shop order operations which have planned labor run time, the Labor Time tick box in Start Production dialog box is selected by default.However, noticed that the user/employee who is doing the Start Production, can untick it, and proceed, which cause the labor hours/cost is not captured.Is there a way to restrict for the users to untick that checkbox ? Thank you in advance !

Hi, A client need is the following : Some inventory locations are so close to production line that it’s not necessary to pick the parts in advance (they even so need to be reserved, naturally). We’d like to exclude those parts from the picking lists generated by the system.Is there a setup at the warehouse/inventory location level to flag them as “to be excluded from picking list”Thanks for your answer.

We’ve completed a shop order that is serialised and configured.  All operations are complete and all materials are issued.  When trying to receive serial parts, we have an error -Inventory Part In Stock Object does not exist.  Unable to close shop order.

Hello, I have run into an issue and I am not sure what the best approach would be. We have a multi-site part that was processed through the system and put into finished good stock. However, that part was manufactured incorrectly at the supply Site. I have outlined the scenario below: Site 1:Manufactures PN 12345Part is shipped to Site 2 for additional processing. Site 2:Processes PN 12345 to produce PN 66666The Shop Order is closed and all labor has been reported. It has now been discovered that PN 12345 was manufactured incorrectly.  We do not want to simply scrap PN 66666 from Site 2, as this would not be an accurate reflection of what occurred. Ideally, we want to scrap PN 12345 that was produced on the SO in Site 1.  I am not sure if this is possible to address in IFS or not. Any guidance would be appreciated!

Hi, I’m trying to create shop floor employees for a new customer who’s still in project phase and I’m receiving this error;---------------------------Error - IFS Applications---------------------------Custom license view [LICENSED_SF_WORKBENCH_USERS] not found in the license file---------------------------[OK]    ---------------------------Is there a separate license which need to be utilized?

There is an audit query raised by our external auditors (EY) with regard to the closing balance of  WIP Account ( GL- 110101002- CA-INV-Work in Progress at Production).   As at the year end (31st March 2020) mentioned account has a balance of USD 1,430,630.78. From the audit perspective they are in doubt of identifying a negative balances of USD 189,251.61 (which comprise in 1,430,630.78) in the financial statements in the financial year 2019/20. Major reason for such is to identifying a finished good at an estimate  value which will not be 100% accurate against actual cost of the respective shop order.   For example :-  •    Actual Cost '<' Estimated Cost = WIP Credit Balance (Negative Value) •    Actual Cost '>' Estimate Cost   = WIP Debit Balance (Positive Value) So following elements should be explained. •    How the system identify WIP credit Balance? •    How the system identify WIP debit balance with respect to zer

Hello,can someone tell me how exactly the values and the time series within the ADU calculation for "Calculated ADU" and "ADU Alert Quantity" behave?I can't find any detailed further information about this in the help.Background is the go-live at a customer with "manual ADU" taken over in the migration from past values. After 7 weeks I would now like to change the ADU for certain articles from "manual" to "Calculated ADU", but I do not get any values for the yellow and red buffers with the setting to "Calculated ADU" and "ADU Alert Quantity".Thanks for the info

We are interfacing Bill of Materials from CAD / SolidWorks to IFS Engineering Structures by using CADlink. However, for components expressed in for example Length instead of Pieces, both CAD/SolidWorks and CADlink have different fields to differentiate between Quantity and Length. Where IFS's Engineering / Product Structures only use the field Quantity per Assembly (in combination with the Unit of Measure).I understood that in CADlink, the quantity is based on the quantity of the component in the 3d model / drawing. And therefore can not be changed in CADLink. Therewith it seems to interface the quantity, while actually in IFS we would need the Length. Does anyone recognize this issue, and knows how this was resolved in your situation? Thanks in advance!

HI All, I and have found some differences between IEE and Aurena Configurator screens, specifically on the dialog box that pops up when you save a configuration that is a match to an existing standard part based on the Configuration. In IEE there is a dialog box That appears telling you there is an existing standard product. Unfortunately, in Aurena (Cloud too) this dialog box does not appear.  Has this Dialog been removed in Aurena/Cloud or perhaps the dialog removed? :In AurenaOn Click Apply: no dialog, POP up in corner or button or indication there is a match to a standard part. Additionally there is now the “Create Standard part from Cfg button (which is also a RMB function in IEE) but it’s misleading as it would indicate to the sales rep a standard part does not exist for the CFG ID. Which i

Good Morning,In walking through an older exercise for CTO Setup of a manufactured chair, getting error "All combination factors must be unique" when attempting to use the same factor type (Characteristic Value) and its associated factor value twice, in order to create a combination table using the same for ranges and associated return values. The help area explicitly states this should be possible, but doesn't seem to be the case, the way I'm doing it anyhow. Screenshots:Desired end game:Thanksjt

If we schedule a “Create pick list for shop orders” when we want to pick the materials as per operation start date; like few days before operation start date, due to the constrained stock. The reservation is going to performed on the entire shop order instead of operation material only if I put shop order start date as the Days before start date instead of operation start date in the ‘Shop Order Auto Process Type’, Process Event ‘Reserve Shop Order’ before setting up the “picking, reservation”.Is there any workaround?Any suggestions are highly appreciated.
