We have received the below from a user - and i have tried to find any documentation in IFS help but unable to find anything relevant: 

for info : IFSADMIN login works the same as the user - is there a reason its greyed out but its accessible via a fudge?

 

Hello

I believe I should be able to access the Routing Lot size tab in the routings screen for the routing type ‘Repair’ as it can be accessed when using a Prototype or Manufacturing routing type:

 

The tab is greyed out for the repair routing for 5067s for example:

…but not on the Prototype or Manufacturing order types:

It is worth noting that I can actually get into the routing lot size tab on the repair routing type if I go into the tab on the prototype/,manufacturing routing first, leaving the screen on the routing lot size tab and then reselecting the repair order type from the drop down list of available routings for that part number…. It would be nicer/easier if it was just not greyed out though….

Hi ​@SPierpoint,

As you noticed, Lot size based alternate configuration is possible for Manufacturing and Prototype Routing only which is logical as well.

What is your business scenario where you need Lot size-based routing alternate configuration for Repair type Routing?

Usually, businesses can not anticipate repair type or number of operations required for product repairing since it depends on the nature of the defect; therefore, one generic repair routing alternate configuration would be enough to create a Repair type shop order.

Additionally, planner has to modified repair routing at shop order level if required.

 

Regards

Abdul Rehman
