Community,Need a better solution for project materials that are going to be delivered and used for commissioning at customer site.currently, when parts are needed for commissioning at customer site, we usually add Misc Parts in Project/Demand tab, usually we put MRP as the supply option. when parts are available, inventory team will issue it to the Misc part line and manually ship it to the customer. But this solution does not transparent to our logistic team. there is no picking, delivery process visible to logistic team.is there any better solution available so as team could ship the material utilizing customer order? Thank you.

Thanks in advance

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

Hello,We are moving to IFS Cloud 23R1.  Supply Chain Planning > Engineering > Project Delivery > Project Item Navigator > Consists Of (tab) > Route Template ID Today in Cloud we are ONLY able to add the Operations details on each individual assembly. We operate more often with hundreds of assemblies and need to be able to bulk edit/easily enter this information similarly to how we can in IEE Apps 10 Project Delivery today. In IEE we can find and replace hundreds of lines vs. manually edit each assembly. We haven't been able to find similar functionality in Cloud Deliverables (Resource & Duration with or without Template).  Has anyone found an efficient way to do this in Cloud?   Thank you,Joann(Ent issue #176)

When I try to enter a code part value in a project forecast line, I always get an error saying the <code part> is not allowed for this forecast line. From where can we control this? under what condition we can enter a code part values in a forecast line?  

In the Engineering Part Revisions screen, it is allowed to selct multiple lines do the “Replace Old Revision” for multiple parts at once.  The customer selects 2 lines as follows and proceed to check the “Replace Old Revision”. (It is allowed to select multiple lines and RMB)    The “Replace” process starts using the wizard. However, it only completes for one part rather than all selected parts. This is misleading as the customer is given the ability to select multiple parts to be Replaced.

Hello,Can anyone please explain the difference between Project Program and Project category? Just want to understand the purpose and difference. I couldn’t find more details in the manuals 

Users are unable to change project managers on projects even though project access is NOT turned on.Based on the help text for this field, it suggests "If access is turned off by clearing the check box, all the access definitions will be deleted and all the users will have access to the whole project"Default value PROJECT_ACCESS property in System Definitions/Object Property  tab is set to OFF.We have project managers leave the business, and then subsequently no one apart from IFSAPP is able to then change it to an active project manager which is causing a lot of issues. Why can't others in the business be able to change project managers when the access is turned off?
