Hi IFS Community,

I would like to ask if anyone has any examples of Multi-Site Project Deliverables solution in IFS Cloud? Therefore a customer who has a requirement for project traced manufacturing processes that cover complex design solution using IFS Project Deliverables?

I'm running into process limitations (?) where I am not able to capture “Project production” on all Sites at the same time because the IFS Project can't cover the planned's planned cost twice (Internal Customer-Supplier Chain) - this makes sense, but not for the internal chain (?).

I also wanted to ask about any business case and use of the "Override Site" param./field, on the level of Project Deliverables Component lines?

It seems that with this setup I am able to initiate production at different Sites (without setting of Internal Customer-Supplier Chain), but the system does NOT solve how do I transport the manufactured/assembled part from Site A to Site B, where the Parent part will consume the semi-product; sub-assembly? Am I forced to use manual Transport Tasks in these cases?

Does anyone have experience with this type of solution?

Thanks for your time! David

Hello ​@davidnovikov , we are facing the same questions, do you have any news about this setup?

Hi ​@theodoreba ,

this question originally came up when we were deciding whether a multi-site solution would be a real benefit for our customer, or whether a single-site setup would be more appropriate. In the end, for several reasons, we decided to go with a single-site approach.

That said, it doesn’t mean I’m no longer interested in the answers to this topic. If any discussion comes up around this, I’d be more than happy to follow or join it (you).

Would you consider opening this topic during one of the “IFS Customer Drop-in Clinic Sessions”? If I have the capacity at that time, I’d be glad to join and contribute. Please let me know if you have any appointments scheduled.

Best regards,
David

Hello ​@davidnovikov we will create an IFS case and and check all the possibilities like you did (using inter site orders / single site setup) since using “override site” didn’t work for us.
