Project and Cascading Cost

We are currently using IFS 10/UPD 18. We currently have all parts setup as average cost/cost per part. We also use the project system for shop order processing. Our issue is that due to IFS cascading cost revaluation entries, projects we have closed completely, from the project itself to the financial project, are being created. These are due to average costing changes. We understand the cause. The problem is that outside of the fact we do not want a project to be touched after it is closed, these same transactions become posting errors because the project is closed. The only way to get them to post is to open up the financial project, open up the project and open up the activity. Outside of turning on lot/batch control/changing the project after it is completed, to non-capitalization, does anyone have a superior solution? Thanks,Rich

Stop completed contract change orders appear in new project forecasts

Is there a way in core functionality to have the completed Contract Change Orders be excluded from appearing in new Project Forecasts? Customer concern (APPS10):“When a contract change order is completed, we would no longer want to see the contract values in the new forecasts. For some reason, these old CCO's are still showing values in the forecast and are muddying to numbers in the forecast reports. Can you please inform us how we can overcome this issue?”

Error creating Activity "domain index is marked LOADING/FAILED/UNUSABLE"

My problem is similar to this one:Except that it happens when I try to created an Activity in the Project Navigator. If I try the steps described in the link above, it is still not working. I also tried these steps below - very similar - without success: I ran that query in Oracle SQL Developer to find the incorrect indexes and I have 3.select index_name,index_type,status,domidx_status,domidx_opstatus from user_indexes where index_type like '%DOMAIN%' and (domidx_status <> 'VALID' or domidx_opstatus <> 'VALID'); Following the two procedures above on all three incorrect indexes solved nothing. In the Search Domain page of an incorrect index, trying to drop that index displays that error:internal error code, arguments: [12806], [kkdcdtc: missing object], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], []Failed executing statement (ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [12806], [kkdcdtc: missing object], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], []) After that, I am able to complete the st

Project Invoice from Invoice Plan - what does selector for Ignore Customer's Credit Info validitations do

When creating a Project Invoice from an Invoice Plan in Cloud 23R1, there is a selector in dialogue box “Ignore Customers Credit Info validations”. Can anyone explain what this selector does? We are not seeing any difference with it selected or unselected. I have experimented with Customer Credit limit so it’s exceeded, and put the Customer on Credit Block. I see no difference in the users steps with this selected or unselected. I assume perhaps it is intended to auto-select the “Ignore Warning” option on the final dialogue box so user does not have select the pencil to go to edit mode, select Ignore Warning, select Done, then select Create Invoice. But that is not happening. Might this be a bug?First dialog box, with selector. Next dialogue box, where user can edit the line and select Ignore Warning to proceed with Invoice.

Schedule multiple projects in Gantt - calendar issue

Hi,I have an issue with scheduling projects in Gantt.My project calendar is 7:00-15:30 / 5 days a week.When I schedule one single project with lag hours project activities and lag hours in between are scheduled according calendar given on project.If I schedule 2 projects (multicompany) with the same calendar assigned suddenly lag hours are scheduled according 24/7 calendar instead of project calendar.If I have 34 lag hours in practice it means:When schedule singe project it gives 4 working days (34 hours / 8,5 hour a day) When schedule more than one project it gives 1,4 day (34 hours / 24 hours per day)Is there any way that system follows calendar given on project even if I schedule more than one project in Gantt?Best regards,Bernadeta

UNABLE TO RESTRICT TIME REPORTING BASED ON PROJECT ACCESS

Version:IFS Aurena Project access is enabled and a team is granted access to the project. But, access to particular subproject is ‘Excluded’ for the same team in ‘Access Definition’ tab in ‘Project setup parameters’ screen. Despite this, a user belonging to the same team is able to report time on an activity of excluded subproject. What could be the reason ? If the team does not have access to a subproject, isn’t time reporting restricted.

Project forecast snapshot matching ETC/EAC

What is the use of this setting when creating a new project forecast I understand the EAC- ETC Calculation , but whether I change Snapshot matching setting to EAC or ETC recalculated does not make any difference, what seems to be driving the calculation is the set ETC option setting. I have same result if the snapshot matching setting is changed to ETC or EAC. Please see example below SIM 1 forecast was created with the following settings The result is SIM 4 forecast was created with the following settings the result is the same therefore I am not sure of the use of this setting. Thanks in advance

Connect Project Activity to MRO Shop Order: Invoicing

Hello All, Regarding MRO Shop Orders in Cloud 23R1 that are connected to a Project Activity, I have the following questions on Invoicing and Revenue Recognition. This is in preparation for delivering some sessions next week on Project Connection to IFS partners in the MRO area - any help would be much appreciated ! Does the project activity collect the MRO sales lines or CAWO (Complex Assembly Work Order) sales lines? How can we observe Revenue collected on a project activity connected to shop order? How can we invoice the CAMRO customer using Project rather than CAWO (Complex Assembly Work Order) ? How can we see the Project Transactions for an activity that accumulates cost from Shop Order? When we search the Project Activity in "Project Transactions" page, no records are found to invoice When we try to perform invoicing through "Create Invoicing Plan" on Invoicing Plan page, the Report Code field is empty for the Project Activity. Why is this the case when Report Code is alread

PMRP usage of surplus standard inventory

Hello Community -Using IFS10, update 19 - We are looking for an option to have PMRP look at and use surplus standard inventory. I have found help text that says this is possible but am looking for some guidance on how to set this up. To further complicate matters, we would like to NOT use the standard inventory safety stock - just the surplus above safety stock quantities. Is this possible?TIA

Error - Deleting a Project in "Started" Status

Hello Community,I’m working in Apps 10 Aurena, where I’m experiencing the following issue. I am trying to delete a Project in “Started” status, I have already deleted all the “Sub Project Structures” prior to attempting the Project Deletion via Project Definition > “Delete Project” command. However, following error message is thrown and i cannot proceed. Assuming that I could get rid of the former error, I tried deleting the “Site” connection to Project, in “Project Definition” > “Site”, but the same error gets thrown there as well. Please correct me if I'm wrong here but as far as I know, I cannot revert the status back to “Approved” nor to “Initialized” from “Started” functionally. Hence, I would be really grateful, if someone can help me out here to see if there is a workaround or perhaps point out steps I am missing in the deletion process.P.S. I just don’t want to change the status using a data script just yet as this issue is happening in client’s PROD environment.Thanks!Sa

Upgrade to Cloud from IFS Project Delivery to Project Deliverables

Since Project Delivery is no longer available in IFS Cloud and now there are IFS customers preparing for the upgrade from IFS9 and IFS10 towards IFS Cloud we are having questions raised by the customer and by ourselves as an IFS Partner. Benefits & Differences:What are the (new) benefits of Project Deliverables compared to Project Delivery? What are the key differences of Project Deliverables compared to Project Delivery?Upgrade path and considerations:I have found another post that mentions how the data is handled. Basically it is stored for historical history purposes but there is no transformation path to the new solution. How is Project Delivery data handled when upgrading to Cloud | IFS CommunityCustomers will have ongoing IFS Project Delivery projects, what is needed to continue with the running projects as IFS Project Deliverables projects? Has anyone have done this upgrade project and would you share your experiences so we can learn from it? Does IFS R&D has an stateme
