Is there any known method to place these files on a one drive connected directory?
Hi Matt, I have recently encountered the same issue on IFS 10/UPD 18. What it looks like to me, is that if the supply code on the customer order is “shop order”, the planned cost field retrieves a plan cost from the shop order. If it is “project”, no cost is retreived into the planned cost field. Did you ever find a setting that would include this value in the project planned cost field?
Send me an e-mail. We can discuss. But, you really need to understand how to use the configuator before even attempting to do a mass import.
Did you ever resolve this issue? We are having the same issue today.
Yes. We were unable to get the Excel migration to work but did use the standard migration tools to create import templates. If you would like a sample, let me know. I just saw this so probably too late at this point. Thanks,Rich
Does anyone know if the screen shots above exist in 9? I cannot find them but basically have the same issue.
K, I just tried a transaction. With these settings I was able to get the WADACO to behave the same as Workbench. I’d like to make this automatically return (skip the lot) but haven’t had a chance yet to see if that is possible.
I am trying to setup the WADACO and on version 9 and I find the same thing. On the flip side, the WADACO mobile app allows lot numbers to be entered without being reserved in the shop order. Also, on the PO receipt side, a order based WADACO receipt does not require a lot number to be entered. It is like this was flipped when WADACO was designed. In our case it is more of a positive than a negative, as we have been able to use work bench or the mobile app depending on the needs of the situation. To my knowledge there is no way of addressing this. I’ve asked various IFS staff for an explanation. I’ve never received one. I can just assume it is this way by accident and is just the way it is.
Thanks. Mine are not working. Maybe because the base UOM has to be the same?
The answers to those questions depend on the costing method you are using. It would seem you are on standard costing. I am not really sure what you are asking. But WIP/Shop orders are normally valued at the actual cost issued to the shop order. Materials/Labor/Overhead posted, based on the setup rules, labor classes, work center costs, etc. In theory if you run the standard IFS shop order report at month end, that report should tie to the G/L balance. Generally one account. If setup is done properly, it should, and needs to. The only system issue I have encountered here is that as far as I know, there is no way to run these shop order reports with historical data. Some of our companies work night shifts, so, it is nearly impossible to get the G/L balance to sync up exactly with a clean month end. I normally let this ride, until the month end falls on an off day and makes sure it ties. I always check the balance. I’ve never come across a issue that was not user related. The shop order
Yes, it is not an easy one. The sad thing is I came across this a few years and figured it out. Now I can’t remember what the fix is. It hasn’t really mattered for the user, as mostly he just uses BA for one weekly report that is e-mailed but I know it will come up again.
This probably is too late but if my memory is correct, all IFS 8 BA reports have to be upgraded using a tool that is installed as part of the local client BA installation. If you go into the BA directory of Windows, there should be an option that says “IFS BA Report Upgrade Utility”.I used this on dozens of reports and never had an issue with it. The program itself is very straightforward.
It works fine on every other computer. We have dozens of users using the BA tool. It is something local to the settings. Maybe a JAVA issue, something odd along those lines.
No, I am quite familiar with the Excel security issues. That isn’t it. It isn’t even getting to Excel. The report can be run direct from Excel, using BA, on the same computer. Thanks,Rich
