Managing and controlling EBOMs and MBOMs (bill of materials)

Looking to start a conversation with users that have similar requirements/processes and maybe even a solution that you wouldn’t mind sharing. All parts get setup in our PDM system and and are configured in the form of an Engineering Bill of Materials (EBOM). These EBOMs are generally built from the bottom up and contain every part needed to cost the final product. These BOMS may feature Technical, Design and Electrical parts. We need to bring these parts into IFS in the form of a product structure that is configured for manufacturing (MBOM).These MBOMs differ from EBOMS as the component parts may be combined in different ways in order to best facilitate the manufacturing process (effectively create sensible Shop Orders in IFS). If this resonates with anyone on this forum please reply. Many thanks,Pete

Using Repair Shop Orders with Customer Orders - Making it Easier

We are running Apps10 UPD8I’m wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how to make the following process easier.We sell some off the shelf products that require calibration or testing before we ship them to the customer. We currently use Repair Shop Orders to do this. This process works well because the same techs that do regular shop orders also do this work. We need to use repair shop orders because the part# we are shipping doesn’t change based on calibration/test.Our one challenge is order entry. Since we are using Repair Shop Orders, we can’t use supply code shop order. It automatically creates a manufacturing shop order. The only way to set this up is toSet the supply code to Invent Order Manually Create a shop order, set type to Repair Add the appropriate operations Manually peg it back to the customer order

Inventory Part Original Tracing of Invent Customer Orders

Hi all,We use the “Inventory Part Original Tracing” window in IEE when we need to trace customer order components back to the suppliers. But if the CO is an Invent order it does not show up. Customer order line: I was expected to find it here, but it is not (I know It originate from 115181):Anyone know why is it not there and how we then trace invent CO?

Configuration ID

Hi,Is it possible for IFS to generate a unique Configuration ID per item raised on a customer order? At the moment it is creating a new number however once the configuration is saved, if there has been the same item booked previously in the same configuration it is automatically assigning it to an old Config ID.Ideally we want every item to have its own new unique configuration ID. Many Thanks

Structure and Routing alternates dependencies

Hi Is this possible to mix an alternate of Product structure and product routing ? What I mean by that, we have Top Item T (as “T”op) and T consist of components C1, C2 Whereas components C1 and C2 are done in 2 separate routings. This differences in routings are the suppliers (let’s call them S1/S2) of Outside Operation (this OO is a operation within a SO for C1/C2) And the thing is we need to keep C1/C2 as same parts whenever they are done through S1 or S2 supplier (1 inventory part at least) And we need to choose on the Customer Order creation if T shall Contains C1/C2 made on S1 or S2 (both shall be made in this same supplier) So in my understanding, we could possible have 2 separate structure alternates for Tand this structure alterantes should differ only of the ROUTING use in the C1 and C2 products That would be the simplest i think, but I don’t see any possibility to mix structure and routing alternate Do you see a way to bypass that ?

Customer Order Reservations

Is there a mechanism to associate specific lot/batches in inventory with specific customers or customer groups so that the customer order reservation process reserves from specific lot/batches before trying to reserve from others? We are trying find a way to associate specific lots that have the same part number but an alternate structure (e.g. the alternate structure contains a coupon on the packaging) to specific customers so that it reserves the correct lots automatically.

Manufacturing Leadtime , reflected on Shop Order

Hi,If I have a part that has 15 days ,manufacturing leadtime set on the Inventory part, when MRP runs and creates SOR and then I convert to Shop Order why is the system not using the 15 days to calculate start date to finish date, the dates below only calculates 10 days. (our working week is 4 days Monday to Thursday) 15th - 18th = 4days, 22nd -25th = 4 days , 1st -2nd = 2days

Counting into stock a serial object that issued to Closed Shop Order

Is there an work around step that we can do to count back in to inventory of a SN object and not have to create a new SN* object?I believe the reason for our stockroom doing this is due to the time lapse where shop floor held part that was needing rework for month then closed out the shop order. Which in turn make it difficult for us to move that SN part. Any thoughts?

How to Handle both purchased & manufactured parts - for stock replenishment

Hi were are currently in the process of upgrading to apps 10 and ran into an issue.All of our inventory parts are set to Part Type “Purchased” - as we sometimes will buy and other times build the same part. We also have both Purchased & Manufactured product Structures for each of these parts. When quoting customers we use a business opportunity that we link to an Estimate (if we are manufacturing the part). In doing so, the estimated end item will use the default part type as being purchased (rather than manufactured) and will not allow the user to update it to Manufactured Part Type. So when the user builds the product structure - they are building the purchased part structure instead of the manufactured product structure. IFS recommended we simply update the Part Type to be Manufactured on the inventory part record. This resolves the issue on the estimate but creates another problem for procurement since the part is now manufactured and it is no longer considered for stock reple

EDI Incoming customer order including configuration

Does anyone have experience with incoming customer order that includes configuration data? Our part in IFS is setup with configuration and in the XML file we read in there is included both configuration details, configuration id and spec revision and it matches the data that we currently have in the system. For this part the configuration id and spec revision exist and is valid.Still when trying to create customer order we get error ORA-20110: ConfigurationSpec.NOSPECREV1: No released configuration specification revision found for the date.

Inventory Order

Hi Everyone, Im a bit stuck on a certain process so wondered if anyone had come across this before and knows how to resolve it. I have created a customer order for internal purposes only - the supply code on these order lines is Shop Order as they need to be manufactured.Once the goods are made I then need to add them to a new customer order and select from Inventory. I have copied the actual order line required into the new order and changed the supply code to Inventory Order however it will not let me manually reserve the items? Any help would be much appreciated.

Stop all shop order clockings for weekend

We thought we heard at the last WOCO that there is now in Apps 10 a setting that will automatically stop all clockings at the end of the ‘work week’. So if the last shift of the week is 2nd shift on Friday, for example, it will stop all clocking that are started, in case the operator forgets to do so. I have looked at all kinds of basic data, site settings, calendar setting, system parameters, manufacturing standards and am still missing it. Can someone please point me to where to set it?Thanks

UKMOD GFE Equipment

Just wondered if anyone (in the UK) has experience of managing MOD GFE equipment in IFS. whether its repairs, spares, embodiment items etc etc. Some of this will come in on a CRO but not all of it will and some of it will be held by the business on behalf of MOD. My starting point for tracking is the fact that it will all be flagged as Customer Owned in IFS.There are strict requirements how businesses need to manage and report on any GFE they hold. There must be someone out there who has experience and I would be really interested in understanding how it is being done within IFS.Many thanks

Yes, you can add alternate parts to each part defined in a product structure, either at EBoM (Asset Design) or MBoM (Manufacturing product structure); also you have the concept of a structure alternate defines the state of a configuration structure and represents a slightly different way of making the same part. The differences might be based on the quantity of parent parts being built, the use of acceptable alternate materials, or some other non-standard condition that indicates a different structure.

IFS support on European Waist Frame Directive

Hello all European IFS customers.Is there anyone of you out there that have the same trouble as us to fulfill ECHA (European Chemicals Agency) Waste Framework Directive (WFD). This means send information to SCIP (Substances of Concern In Products). Base for this this information exist in IFS and the module Eco Footprint, But.. IFS don’t have all information and they don't have the interface to export to SCIP out of the box . As this is an European directive we thought IFS should fix this in coming releases, or in an extension,, But the info I got says that they wont do that.Is there anyone else out the that want to join forces to get this done?BrChrister Kindvall
