Hi experts,

I am currently working on project management module and our customer would like to know other use cases which are similar to them.

<Their scenario>
They are manufacturing company and they would like to use project module for their product developments such as sample products, research purpose products. 
Currently they are using SAP project module for this purpose and they would like to change into IFS project management module.
They define the structure of project/sub-project/activities based on their requirement. They face the issue of managing activities because of the assumed number of required activities. 
They feel it is not realistic to ask user to use these activities without having any functionalities to automate their operations. 

<Ask>
They looked into the functionality such as copying activity/sub-project/project but it is not enough to decrease their operational efforts.
We appriciate if everyone can share usecases/idea (ideally based on real customer scenario)

Thanks.

We are looking for a similar solution. More specifically would like to “import” the WBS with estimates from a “estimator” spreadsheet and also customize the the WBS based on the specific project at hand. Key issue is the many multiple activities that need to be updated from the external estimate tool.

Hi Shunichiro,

Not very sure if this could help but they can use Data migration to bring in their required wbs and use progress templates/tasks on their activities indicating particular actions that would be performed on their product and add some user as Activity Responsible person to ensure timely updation here.
