How to manage return packaging?

Goods to be shipped can be packed in handling units. These handling units could be disposables, but could also be more valuable packing (from pallets to boxes and containers). How can these more expensive packaging materials be managed? Both in inventory as well as the return from customer?

Medical Devices GS1-GDSN interface

GDSN (Global Data Synchronisation Network) from GS1 can be used by Medical Device Manufacturers to upload their product data to make it accessible to for instance EUDAMED. I am looking for companies who have actually implemented a connection (either by file upload or machine-to-machine interface). If so, I would be very happy to get in touch to learn how this connection has been setup.

Invoice non inventory sales part lines at the same moment as a shipment

How can I invoice non inventory sales part lines at the same moment as a shipment?Example:Customer Order has 2 lines, 1 with an inventory part and 1 non inventory part. Shipments are used to send the inventory part to customer. Invoicing should include the non inventory part at the moment of shipping the inventory part, but as it is non inventory it is not shipped so a manual action is needed to get it delivered and invoiced which is error prone and inefficient due to the transaction volume.

How to change Service Contract Line Invoice Type from Invoice plan to anything else

When a Service Contract Line has an Invoice Type = Invoice Plan and Periodic Pricing has been entered there seems no way to undo this. Changing the Invoice Type is not allowed due to the Periodic Prices and Periodic Prices can not be removed although there is a RMB "Delete” (which does not delete the line). So, how can I change the Invoice Type? IFS Applications 10 UPD7.

How to work with length materials on Shop Order?

IFS Product Structure Components has a field “Qty per Assembly”. This is converted into “Qty per Assembly” on Shop Order Materials. The Shop Order can have a Lot Size and this leads to a “Qty required” on Shop Order Materials. This is OK for UoM PCS, but how would this work with UoM meters? Example: Component UoM = “m” and “Qty per Assembly” = 0,2 m. Lot Size = 5 so my “Qty required” = 1 m, but Shop Order doesn’t need 1 m. It needs 5 x 0,2 m!

Lobby Data Source using Case statement

I have following SQL statement which gives me the right result: SELECT CASE WHEN PART_NO LIKE '1%' THEN 'A' WHEN PART_NO LIKE '2%' THEN 'B' WHEN PART_NO LIKE '3%' THEN 'C' END PART_TYPE, MAX(PART_NO) PART_NO FROM PART_CATALOG WHERE (PART_NO LIKE '1%' OR PART_NO LIKE '2%' OR PART_NO LIKE '3%') GROUP BY CASE WHEN PART_NO LIKE '1%' THEN 'A' WHEN PART_NO LIKE '2%' THEN 'B' WHEN PART_NO LIKE '3%' THEN 'C' END How would this convert to definition of a Lobby Data Source (with view Part_Catalog) regarding Condition and Group By?

Work Order (resource) planning

I am looking for best practices (if possible with reference) regarding IFS Applications field service work order planning and resource allocation. It seems there are 3 options: Standard work order gantt and resource allocation: very limited functionality, user unfriendly, slow; Maintenance Planning Board: complex, meant for maintenance not for field service; error prone (connection loss); PSO: complex, requires mature organisation, only applicable for short cycled work orders. Any help on this topic is highly appreciated!

Plan Shop Orders with Labour only

It seems that IFS Apps10 only uses Machine Time when planning Manufactured Parts and Shop Orders. How should we plan Manufactured Parts (MRP) and Schedule the resulting Shop Orders with labour only? We are not using CBS or APB, just Apps10.
