Hi,

 

In the standard IFS Cloud is there a way to trigger maintenance work (a Work Order may be) automatically when we start a downtime for a Work Center Resource in the Shop Floor Workbench ?

 

Machine operator is starting a downtime due to a fault in the machine. As a result, the maintenance crew needs to be alerted about this (we can use a custom event for that). The important requirement is, that the system to create something like a Work Order automatically in this instance. So, the maintenance crew can record all the required work tasks, task assignments and all of that properly through the system.

 

Using the IFS Cloud version 22R1.

You will probably need a custom event, or workflow to automate that. But its a great idea to have standard business logic for, so please consider requesting this from the idea section of the community!
