CTO Part Configuration Status is Parked

@arebbeadle , If the Shop Order has been created from a CO, I think this is a Data Migration issue. Can you try Edit Configuration from Shop Order window?If not, I would suggest you to add a Support case to IFS. Thanks,jagath

Setting up Manufactuing part

Hi Again @m.arif , For your Supply site or Site A with part X you need to calculate Cost for Cost Set 2 or any and copy the valid cost set on Cost Set 1.Then that value will be available in Inventory part Cost tab.Referring that value, you need to define “Supplier for Purchase part” (window) Price of Part X in Demand site of Site B along with Demand site Connected Purchase part Cost in “Inventory part” window “Cost” tab.Then the values will be updated.Other than that, I don’t see any automatic way to roll cost of Supplier site to Demand Site. Hope this helps,Thanks,Jagath

Unpeg Shop Order

Hi @hmccabe, I can remember, there was a bug in APP8 version which related to your issue. Are you in APP8? If not, I agree with Shawn about how you got to this end.Because, once your Shop Order pegged Customer Order has been reserved by inventory (Manual reservation) your peg connection between Shop Order and Customer Order will be removed (If partially reserved by the Shop Order, Pegged amount will be reduced). Therefore, you can cancel or close your Shop Order without any hassle. However, if your Customer Order is Invoiced/Closed while a Shop Order is pegged you can try below...In Preliminary Invoice stage> You can Cancel the InvoiceIn Posted Auth Stage> You can Create a credit invoiceIn Paid Posted Stage> You can Create Customer Payment rollback (This will be complex)Then, reverse the customer order and unpeg the Shop Order. Thanks,Jagath

Change part serial ownership type

Hi @hmccabe, You can use “Count per inventory Part” window.There you can Count out the existing Customer Owned Serial part and count in with the same serial number and location (you might need to query the part in “Count results per inventory part” window and Approve).It will assign the ownership as the company owned. However, the steps that you already use are much more valid than above.Because, IFS online help text also mentioning the same. Please check below:“customer-owned, transferred to company-owned stock. This ownership transfer is initiated from the Inventory Part in Stock window. A purchase order is created from a dialog box and the result is a purchase order receipt that changes the ownership of the part quantity, i.e., a receipt in place.” Thanks,Jagath

Shop Floor Reporting LTU

Hi @SHIMY You need a Full License for the terminal that the Shop Floor Workbench screen will be running on. Then the employees would use their Employee ID to use the SFWB screen for shop order reporting If you have 50 employees that will report time through SWFB and one kiosk or terminal running. SFWB they would need 1 General Access License or Full Use license with License and 50 SFWB LTU licenses. You need to define EmployeesAdd then define employee under Manufacturing Labor classes (this will consume SFWB License)Setup a kiosk or a tablet with IFS Application, use a Full License user to loginAsk Employees to work with Employee IDEven you can share created Generic user username/password to the employeesThen they can login with that user and report SFWB with employee id. Hope this helps. Thanks,Jagath

CNC Programs within IFS

Hi @dz1d3k, You can use Standard Operation window to define a CNC Program.In it you can define your CNC Machine as a Work center.You can add Run factor (Machine Run Factor) for particular CNC Program, Labor Class which you are going to use with the time taken for the program (Labor run factor).Further more, you can define tools which you are going to use for the CNC program (Under Standard Operation tools tab), relevant Work Instructions (Under Standard operation Work Guidelines tab).Nevertheless, you can add your CNC program file as an attachment for the standard operation.Later, when you want to use your Particular CNC program to manufacture a desired Part, you can add the Standard operation to the Routing window of particular part.The used Material can be added under Product Structure of the part.Since you can use same CNC program to Manufacture different Parts, with Different Material, defining CNC programs separately (using standard operation window), would be effective.

Slowness in closing Shop Orders with Weighted Average

Hi @XitUdeshJ , Once you change Inventory valuation method from Standard cost to weighted average and try to close a shop order, all the closed shop orders are been reopened and closed by the system automatically. Hence, a slowness can occur. There is no any known APP10 patch. Anyway, let me know your UPD level (I’ll further check).However, the error message that occurred is due to a different shop order close process. it seems multiple shop orders are been tried to close.If you have a huge set of shop orders with the same part number, single shop order closing can take minutes.As @Xavier Fernando mentioned please wait for some time and try to close.if you get same error after hours, please send a case/ticket to IFS Support. Thanks,Jagath

Hi @MWitczak, This looks like a scenario which has not been handled yet by our R&D (Product Development) team.Could you please send a Support case. IFS Support team can work with R&D team and come up with a possible step (patch or an enhancement). For the moment, we only can manually enter Estimated material cost in Inventory Part Cost tab.

Hi @corriganrc, You can add maximum of 20 characters. There is a client validation. Hence you can’t add more than 20. There will not be an error it just omit any characters that appear after 20th. Thanks,Jagath

Ownership transfer from customer owned to company owned

Hi, As far as i know, there is no any way to change ownership automatically.I hope you are transferring Ownership from Customer Owned to Company Own from Inventory part in Stock (RMB option).However, if you want to use the customer own components for your Shop Orders with the same owner (Customer Own), you can simply change Shop Order Material tab Ownership field from Company own (Default) to customer own (with adding the owner).

Byproduct price incorrect

Hi, I hope you defined your byproduct under supplier for purchase part. That way, you get a price for it. When you receive a byproduct through a Shop Order, it is always referring part cost not the Price you entered in your Supplier for purchase Part window.You can check Part cost window for your by product or you can check Shop Order Cost windows Estimate Details tab (and other tabs) to understand how cost has been assigned to Byproducts. Let me know if you need further clarification with screenshots. PS: Supplier for purchase part connected Price will be used when you purchase that part with a purchase order. Thanks,Jagath

Models and related components

Hi Salib, I hope you are referring Products and Models under PDM. Firstly, you need to add engineering parts in "Engineering Parts” window and create revisions (“Engineering Part Revision” window) with components (“Consist Of” tab), then release the engineering part revisions. This will make the top engineering part and component engineering part connection. Once the connection is done, you can add “Product models” in named window. Once you add header information and line information with top engineering part details, you can right mouse click on the line and “Create Product Model information”. It will add details to “Model Part Content” window and you can see the complete structure with details. Thanks, Jagath
