Hi guys, This was posted a while back. A ton of people viewed it but gave no answer - despite me requiring one desperately! Since then I posted ‘more simple’ kinds of questions, and received a reply soon after. But, to be frank, that’s no good. Surely I should get some indication for the more complex stuff without recourse to a consultant? I’ve got a query about how to use APB. An example is apt here. Consider an MPS consisting of 2 items. Lets stipulate the structure for each is: Level 0 = end-item (GA), Level 1 = SA (x2), Level 2 = 4 piece parts & Level 3 = 10 piece parts. Let’s also imagine 0 overlap between recipes (thus no requisition to merge supply). The relevant ‘Priority Rule’ is ‘Earliest Possible Due Date’ (with all operations selected) since we’re looking to schedule both projects to finish asap, with no spare capacity gaps. 2 options arise at this stage. Either, schedule both project items (under the priority rule stated) in APB with a single executed run. Or, l
Hi guys, Can I get an overview of what DOP is and its expected benefits (say, as contrasted to standard MRP or pMRP) in APPS 10. thanks,
Hi, What is the functionality of ‘Planning Structure’ in IFS Apps 10? I pasted a part no. into the initial search and received nothing. So, assuming it’s relevant to scheduling, what are the data requirement necessary to run it? thanks,
Hi guys, Can somebody define ‘Proposed Start' and 'Planned Due Date’ as fund in Shop Order Requisitions? In other words, how is the dates in those respective fields determined? What inputs and calculation principles figure for each? The definitions found in the Help button don’t elaborate. Many thanks, jay

Hi guys, In IFS (Apps 10) there are pages called ‘Production Schedule by Line’ & ‘Production Schedule by Line Part’. Can somebody provide a description of what they are intended for. It’s evident I’m not using it properly. Because when I search by Site (and nothing else) the returning values is N/A (i.e. nothing found). See below - On the same token, when I paste the list of parts that have orders in WIP (i.e. the range of data necessary to identify objects in the current plan) that also returns N/A. So, in addition to the question above, what preliminary ‘data requirements’ must be satisfied to render this page usable in the first place. Assuming this is not a straight-forward search error! thanks, Jay
Hi, Can somebody provide a detailed description of how Need Dates figure in production planning and MRP logic? I posted something a while ago, but the answer didn't tackle my question. I'd like something comprehensive i.e. how are they assigned, how can the be changed, what they actually reflect, and the role in CBS scheduling such as APB? Many thanks, Jay
Hi, What does ‘adjustment factor weight’ mean in APB? A definition with examples would be hugely appreciated. And if certain background conditions (i.e inputs or system parameters) are needed to use it, do say. Many thanks, Jay
