Hi all,I am looking to implement the following sequence in IFS App10 :starting point : A is a purchased inventory part, appearing as a component in multiple finished and/or semi-finished products ; Planning method is set to either A or G, meaning part is handled on a purchase-to-order basis, and there are no parts in inventory ahead of time. step 1 : setup B as an alternate part for part A at master level (B is also a purchased inventory part) : this, I know how to do (side note : B is effectively an alternate purchase structure relative to A : A and B have the same drawing number, A has an empty Purchase structure, B has raw material included in its Purchase structure) step 2 : receive / register PO from customer, launch / release corresponding DOP order, end up with a shop order that has A as a component (all this is fine as well) step 3 (this is where I need help) : based on internal factors, we might decide we want to buy part B instead of part A for this particular shop order / re
Hello IFS Community !I have a question re. salvage part handling in multi-level repair orders : say I set Repair action to ‘Replace’ status on a serialized subassembly within a product’s multi-level repair order. The subassembly part that needs replaced will therefore appear in the ‘Salvage Part’ tab and I can run a shop order to manufacture its replacement.Now when all is said and done, IFS won’t let me close the multi-level repair order until ‘all salvage parts are received’ … but what happens if I don’t want to receive said part in inventory because it is broken / non-functional anymore and it is to go into the trash (or recycling) bin ? Isn’t there a way to leave the salvage part in the repair order so it goes out into the ether when I close said order ? Do I have to receive it then scrap it from inventory ?Thank you in advance for any help you’ll be able to provide :)
Hello IFS Community !I have a question re. multi-level repair orders… our finished products + at least one structure level on subassemblies have parameter Supply Type = ‘DOP’ in Inventory Part > Planning Data tab. Therefore, in a shop order for a finished product, in Materials tab, the component lines for these subassemblies have parameter Supply Type = ‘DOP Order’Now, when I have a multi-level Repair shop order stemming from a CRO order for that finished product, and I set one of these subassemblies to Repair action = ‘Replace’ status, IFS creates the corresponding component line in the Materials tab… however, the component line is created with parameter Supply Type = ‘Invent Order’, which is in contradiction with the ‘DOP’ Supply Type for that subassembly part and causes me all sorts of headaches as to how to launch production for that part !Any clue / idea how to solve (or circumvent) this issue ?? Thanks in advance for the help !Julien
