Hi, We have an issue where we are ordering items - let’s focus on ordering, but same case may come when we are manufacturing them inhouse - which should be order in sets. Lets say that there is set S with part no A & B A & B are different part nos in our warehouse, we need to have them separately Then, if for some reason, we get more part of A than B and there is same demand for both, we are getting a requisition Purchase order only for B but supplier is not accepting this order cause we can’t order a standaalone B product, we must order it always together with A is there a solution for that in IFS ? Like if we have demand for part B we always needs to get SAME demand for part A ? I know that Purchase sttructures can work in similar way but we have had a problem with Dissassembly this Set S into 2 separate products A & B. Like maybe it was doable but still quite of additional work What do you think about that ?
Hi All, We need to find a place to keep information about our CNC Programs We have no module for that Do you have idea where we can put this information in IFS ? The information we need is: Part NoRevisionMaterial (Sheet Metal)Lot Size (we have programs for whole sheets and bars)Work Centers (on which program can be performed) Because work centers and material is needed so i thoughr that we can put this information within routing and/or structure window. We could possibly do it with custom field. Do you have any other idea ? Does someone do that before ? Also, we should be able to attach the file within this window but its not a sine qua non
Dear All, We are starting to use IFS Shipment Sometimes, we are creating a shipment when our planner want to ship goods to a customer. From time to time, we send shipments with more than one truck and then we don’t know what product will go on which truck beforehand. This is creating a problembecause we need separate delivery notes for every truck Is there a way to fix this within a shipment ?Despite the ordinary “create additional shipment” i see 2 and a half options that may work Issuing more thann one delviery note per shipment. If this would be possible, (honestly i don’t think it is) then it will mostly fix the problem. Ability to quickly switch the lines between shipment. This is also a submethod of creating new shipment, but still when we can go to a shipment lines RMB line and then click “switch to another shipment” this would be much more easier to do than deleting the liens from one shipment and adding it to another. Keep also in mind that shipments are often finalisez after
Hi Is this possible to mix an alternate of Product structure and product routing ? What I mean by that, we have Top Item T (as “T”op) and T consist of components C1, C2 Whereas components C1 and C2 are done in 2 separate routings. This differences in routings are the suppliers (let’s call them S1/S2) of Outside Operation (this OO is a operation within a SO for C1/C2) And the thing is we need to keep C1/C2 as same parts whenever they are done through S1 or S2 supplier (1 inventory part at least) And we need to choose on the Customer Order creation if T shall Contains C1/C2 made on S1 or S2 (both shall be made in this same supplier) So in my understanding, we could possible have 2 separate structure alternates for Tand this structure alterantes should differ only of the ROUTING use in the C1 and C2 products That would be the simplest i think, but I don’t see any possibility to mix structure and routing alternate Do you see a way to bypass that ?
In our site, we have one part number, for which we use Inventory Part Planning Manuf/Acquired split (50%/50%) What of course means that 50% of supply is purchased and another 50% is produced But there is one problem with that parts with Lead Times Differences Of course, Purchasing Lead time is far ahead of manufacturing lead time. It entails the thing that we are releasing purchase order much earlier than prodution order And lets say we have a demand for the date X for 200 pcs. Because of the split 100 of them has purchase requisiton and another 100 has shop order requisition When the Purchase requisiton is released and SO req isn't then there is 100 covered by PO and 100 uncovered. After next MRP this uncovered 100 pcs is again netted and calculated with the 50% split So on next day we have a 100 PO released. 50 pcs po req and 50 pcs SO req. In total it gives us split of 75% vs 25% instead of desired 50/50 Do you believe is there any way to avoid that, an
