Hi
Does anyone know if it is possible to provide an alternate description for a Serial Object other than the Mater Part description?
In setting up a new contract, the teams were using a system where the Master Part description is one thing and the Serial Object (Equipment) description was more of their own making.
This is on Apps 9 SP11

Hello @BABPAULS & @Marcel.Ausan - Unfortunately, this functionality is not available in APP9. The Object Description is read-only and is solely updated from the Master Part Description. This setup ensures data integrity, which is a common practice.
However, in your particular situation, adding an extra custom field would serve the purpose.

I’m not sure if you are referencing Apps 9 or a more recent version of IFS.
We don’t have the Object Description field in our version (I checked in the Properties area and related base views)
Many thanks
