Hi All,
I'm having trouble figuring out the best way to issue materials to a work order using a mobile device. I haven’t been able to find much information on how to do this efficiently.
I’m looking for your advice on the best method to issue materials to a work order.
With Wadaco, we have two options: Manual_Issue_Work_Order and Unplanned_Issue_Work_Order. However, these don’t seem ideal if you don’t have a physical pick list.
For maintenance material requisitions, I first need to reserve the materials. After that, a pick list is created, and the warehouse team has to pick the exact lot, batch, or serial number assigned. Even though the “pick by choice” setting is enabled at the site level, it doesn’t seem to work in this scenario.
It looks like IFS doesn’t support “pick by choice” for maintenance material requisitions.
If we use the Unplanned_Issue_Work_Order method, we can skip creating a pick list. But then, the warehouse team won’t be able to see where the parts are stored.
I’m trying to find out what the most efficient way is to issue materials to the workshop for a work order.
What approach would you take in this situation?
I’d really appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks,
Chamath
