Order Ref1 Fields in Purchase Requisition Lines

Hello IFS community, Under the Purchase Requisition Lines, there are fields labeled Order Ref1, Order Ref2, and Order Ref3. From other pages, I know that Order Ref2 corresponds to the Line No and Order Ref3 to the Release No. However, could you tell me what Order Ref1 refers to? I’m certain it isn’t the PO No, as that field already exists in the Purchase Requisition Lines.Additionally, in previous versions of IFS, you could press F1 or access the Help menu to see definitions and explanations about fields. Is there a similar feature in IFS Cloud for quick field definitions?

Standard Cost and Cost per Condition?

I was testing this combination a bit and it seems the only way to change the unit cost of a part in this case is to manually use Modify Cost Level Details, by part and condition. Which means that there is no way of recalculating the costs in bulk for several parts? You can do the cost calculations and copy to cost set 1, but the standard part cost will not be used. Am I missing something?

Deprecation of operational reports in manufacturing - a heads-up

This post is relevant for manufacturing customers using operational reports. It is a heads-up that we are planning to deprecate below listed operational reports. BackgroundAlthough the transition to paperless manufacturing is still in progress, the demand for printed documentation or reports shared as PDFs has noticeably decreased. We have several reports that we believe are either not used or have numerous alternative options available in IFS Cloud for sharing such information. Maintaining these reports still consumes time that could be better spent developing new functionality. Therefore, we plan to deprecate these reportsReports planned to be deprecatedKanban Audit Report Kanban Supplier Receipt History Report Capability Graph Data Qman Sample Value SPC Graph Sample Data for Variables Analysis Result History Recipe Print Out Routing Report Structure Information Report Structure/Routing ReportWhat happens now?This deprecation will be communicated officially via the release notes in I

Need to be able to use both Product Structures and Recipe Structures within the same site

We’re working with a client where we are planning to use Product Structures for their Manufacturing business. However there are a series of Products where they can use either a combination of Parts A, B, C, or, the they can use a combination of parts C, D.We’ve proposed that these should be identified as being different parts with separate Product Structures but the client has rejected this as the completed Product is 100% identical both visually, technically and structurally, so irrespective of the item combination used to make them, from a Sales and Storage perspective the completed Products are the same.The only option we seem to have (as we can’t use Alternate Parts to manage this), is to use Recipe rather than Product Structures to manage this, but this leads to a series of questions:Is it possible to combined both Product and Recipe Structures in a Single Site in IFS (Previous questions in the community appear to indicate that it is) What, if any complications can this cause from

Can you use Equivalence in IFS Costing

We’re working with a client in the Construction Materials sector. When carrying out Product costing on one of their main product lines, they use a concept the call “Equivalence”, under which for example, the standard product is an 8x8x12 block which has an equivalence value of 1 and a cost of $10, another version of the product is an 8x8x9 block which has an equivalence value of 0.75 and a cost of $7.50, and a third product will be an 8x8x15 block which has an equivalence value of 1.25 and a cost of $12.50.We’re trying to find a way of representing this costing method in IFS but none of the standard models in the system appear able to support it, has anyone encountered anything similar previously and does anyone have any suggestions on how this can be approached

Issue with Part Revision: A new revision was automatically created when the most recent revision was marked as "phase out."

Issue with Part Revision: A new revision was automatically created when the most recent revision was marked as "phase out." * New part revisions are being automatically created after the most recent revisions are marked as "phased out." * Many of the affected parts are components of the mentioned finished goods. * The issue was especially noticeable between December 15 and 16, 2024, affecting 89 parts. **Question:** Is there any adjustment or configuration in the system that automatically triggers changes in the revisions of component parts when changes are made to finished goods?
