Hello all, 

We have set up a Reorder Point Kanban circuit for a manufactured part in IFS Cloud.

  • The Kanban size is equal to the MIn-Max Lot Size defined in the Inventory Part Planning Data.
  • However, when shop orders are created from Kanban and the demand at Kanban start-up exceeds one Kanban, the resulting shop orders contain a quantity larger than the defined Max Lot Size.
  • This behavior occurs specifically during the initial use of the Reorder Point Kanban.

Questions:

  1. Is there a setting or configuration in IFS Cloud that ensures shop orders created from Kanban always respect the Min / Max / Multiple lot size settings from the Inventory Part Planning Data?
  2. Is it possible to have shop orders created by Kanban be created directly in status Released instead of Planned?

    Kind regards, 
    Willem
