My finance colleagues are having issues running GL Voucher Row Analysis despite having entered search criteria that would keep the output to a minimum.This is specific to the voucher type ‘MPL’ and we know the likely cause is the volume of data contained in the table for this voucher type.We currently have our DBA’s investigating performance but in the mean time I have come across the following closed post: Within this post, there is suggestion of an archiving process for GL Voucher Rows. I have very limited knowledge of the financial areas of IFS (but learning quickly), I wonder if anyone can advise WHERE and HOW this archiving might be run (if within the application)?We are running Apps8 SP1.Many thanks in advance!!
I have recently made changes to the filepath used in the OUT_DIRECTORY field of a number of Connector Senders in “Setup IFS Connect”.These are file senders that push xml files of our Incoming Customer Orders, Invoices and Despatch Advices to a archive folder on our application server.These changes were made on 24/09/2021 successfully and immediately started working. On the eve of the 25/09/2021 a colleague applied an IFS release and in the process performed a reconfig.We have since noticed that all changes made to the filepath used in the OUT_DIRECTORY have reverted to the previous value.Through interrogation of our log files I can clearly attribute the reversal of these changes to the reconfig but am at a loss as to where the value of the OUT_DIRECTORY has been picked up from. I have attached screenshots of the value before and after the reconfig as an example. I have so far been looking for a batch of config files specifically relating to each Connector Sender to no avail so am wonde
Simple question I think but needed for clarity.What is the difference between Jobs & Operations of a Seperate PM Action?
I have a team of engineers who belong to a company, “VISA” which is comprised of two sites “VP100” & “VP110”.When the team are trying to assign an engineer manually to the resource tab of “Single Page Report In Work Order” the engineers available in the list are only those that are assigned to the site at that time rather than the full list, there are seven engineers in total, the attached screenshots capture 4 engineers assigned on one site and 3 engineers on the other.Is there any way to configure this to have visibility of all seven regardless of site? If not, what is the best or prescribed way of allowing the engineering team to switch an engineers site? Through accessing the “Organization Basic Data”?Many thanks,Matt
I have recently been asked to report on historical Work Orders resulting in Work Centre down time. I am vaguely aware that Work Orders or Serial Objects can be linked to Work Centres but would like some guidance if someone is willing.I need to understand if, how and what should be considered if either objects or work orders are linked to a shop floor work centre.Whilst we use the shop floor work bench we do not use any of the scheduling or capacity planning tools for Shop Orders.Many thanks,Matt
We have recently migrated our Demand Plan Server across to a new 2012 server from 2008 and are experiencing issues every Sunday when our scheduled Create Forecast job runs.When the job runs it is overwriting Forecast Values that should be fixed (having already been adjusted). The affected week rolls on each week on the Sunday but is consistently current week + 2, so at time of posting this in Week 46, the numbers affected fall within Week 48.This only appears to occur on a Sunday presumably as our periods are defined as weeks, Sunday - Saturday.Work around in place to rectify the invalid data and case raised with IFS.Just wondering if anyone else here has had similar issues and could share any knowledge or experience. IFS Apps 8, Demand Plan Server
We have a Customer who has various order lead times, for example:Batch of Products A - Day 1 Order for Day 2 Delivery order profile - Demand Time Fence = 1Batch of Products B - Day 1 Order for Day 3 Delivery order profile - Demand Time Fence = 2Parts are defined as SU/JSAI...[Varietal Code]...[Numerical Code]When we Import Demand into IFS we would import by either SU% or SU/MARS%, drilling further down would not be feasible given the number of SKU’s.On the Import Demand Planning Forecast window we have to select the appropriate Date Interval Start Date & End Date.When the start date is equal to Batch of Products A - Demand Time Fence +1 we experience an inflated value for all Batch of Products B. If we run with Products B - Demand Time Fence +2 we lose a days Forecast values for Batch of Products A. I have attached an old test plan, it’s a difficult issue to follow / explain but wondered if anyone else had had similar experiences or perhaps there is something we are missing or some
Is it possible to generate works orders using separate pm actions based on the hours runtime of a machine or km’s driven by a vehicle using standard functionality in IFS Apps 8?I only see options to base this on day, week, month or none in the maintenance plan (shown in the attached image) so I would guess not using this but I wonder about an event based on measurements / readings taken and entered into the system.Anyone else had similar requirements?
Is it possible for engineers to work across multiple sites within the same company and, additionally across multiple companies.I have a requirement for engineers to carry out work orders in this regard and have visibility of engineering stocks across all relevant sites / companies.Appreciate the answer to this will likely be down to setup, that is currently what I am struggling with. We are currently on Apps8.Furthermore, are the any pitfalls with regards to this that I should be aware of?Thanks in advance.
