Hi there,I was just wondering what the purpose is of the procedure Application_Search_Sys.Sync_Index__.We have 70 scheduled tasks set up to run this procedure every 30 minutes over various search domains. Three of these are failing each time - DesignObject, PurchaseOrder and CustomerOrder - but we don’t appear to have any users complain.So my questions are:Are these 70 tasks part of the IFS standard set up?Do they need to run and what benefit do they have?If they do need to run do they need to be so frequent? Examples of the failures are:Schedule id 173 : DesignObject ORA-20110: Cannot update record after it has been approved.                     Schedule id 197 : PurchaseOrder Warning The Code Part Project is Mandatory at Line no 1                    ORA-20110: PurchaseOrderLineNopart.SRLNULLERR Schedule id 263 : CustomerOrder Cannot update Omprompt order after it has been cancelled, please resubmit in Omprompt 4                    ORA-20110: CustomerOrder.CUST_ORD  Thanks in

Hi,We’re one IFS Cloud One 23.1. One of our business unit does autopsies on membranes used for water treatment. They don’t have any service contract with customers, out of the blue customers simply raise a PO and send their membrane in for autopsies, once the autopsies are done the membranes are discarted. What I would like to do is generate a work order or shop order from the customer so the employees can clock their time and use consumables on the WO or SO without putting anything in stock at the end. Any idea would be greatly appreciated.Cheers and happy new year in advance !

Hello,We are using IFS Apps9, when we are moving stocks with availability control ID, IFS pops up the windows below, I set availability control ID same as to location, but I can’t see it is set to the to location; and even in the original location, availability control ID is also removed.Does anyone have the same issue or how should I fix it?Many thanks. 

Hi, If I have Shop Order where we are going to manufacture a specific product with eng rev X. The Eng rev X requires underlying material to have a certain eng rev to go into this structure. However, when reserving material to the shop order it is till possible for me to reserve other revisions that are too low even if the product structure points at a higher revision required to manufacture the product with eng rev x.  Is there a way to make sure that a product structure connected to a shop order only points to the material with correct revision in the inventory?

Is it possible to create an MRB on a PO receipt of a subcontract part?When I RMB on an inventory part receipt, I get the option to create an MRB, but I don’t get that option for a subcontract item.  IFS10 UPD9  

Hello, How does MRP consider safety lead time? I have input a safety lead time and am using planning method A for a top level manufactured part. When I create a customer order for this part, I do not see the safety lead time being considered in the start date, finish date, or need date of the shop order. I also do not see the safety lead time be considered for any shop order requisitions for any of the component parts. See detailed example below: Part A - safety lead time is 5, part planning method ACustomer Order created for 800 pieces with wanted delivery date of 01/10/2024, and picking lead time of 1 and external transport lead time of 2, so planned due date is 01/07/2024.Shop Order Requisition is generated for this top-level part with need date of 01/07/2024 and start and finish dates of 01/06/2024. Why doesn’t the shop order requisition have a start and finish dates of 01/02/2024?Shop Order Requisition is generated for a component part with need date of 01/06/2024 and start and fi

We are using master schedule level 1 to maintain forecasts for finished goods, but we also have some forecasts for semi-finished goods. We found once we maintain forecasts for semi-finished goods, the requirements from finished goods for the semi-finished goods will be not considered.Is it possible to have both forecasts for semi-finished goods and requirements genereated from finished goods forecasts?Thanks a lot.

A customer order with an export-controlled part can be released even though the license is not connected. How can I prevent a customer order from being released if no export license is connected? I understand the function of the denied parts, but it doesn't help me in this case.The issue is, for example, that two parts are to be checked with the export control. One part may be exported, the other may not be exported. How can this be handled with export control?

Hi All, I work on IFS App 10I would like to  prevent some putaway zones to get automatic reservation but I couldn’t find any parameters from IFS.I know there is the Availability control for each spécific inventory part that prevent automatic reservation, but I don’t find such “control” for a specific location. Do you know if such parameters exists or where to find it ?Best regards,  Baptiste Hervé

Hi, was wondering if anybody else had come across this issue… We were testing some scenarios regarding undoing deliveries. Going from Customer Order Reserved/Released  - Create Pick List - Report Picking - Attach handling unit and then complete and deliver. We were seeing if we could undo a delivery at the last moment. We found we could successfully do this as long as the order consisted of only one part number. If the order contained different parts, the below error appears…. Has anybody else experienced this issue??

Hi I am trying to disable the Receive button when the parts to be received are serialized in order to force serialization at our receiving instead of after IQC. I tried manipulating the Enable string in the page designer without success. Not sure that is the best way. How would I alter the below so that it does not show up for serialized part lines? Thanks. {"and":[{"!=":[{"var":"record.InquireReceive"},"FALSE"]},{"@-value":{"!":[{"and":[{"==":[{"var":"record.DemandCodeDb"},"FSM"]},{"or":[{"var":"record.SerialTracking"},{"or":[{"!=":[{"var":"record.LotBatchTracking"},null]},{"!=":[{"var":"record.LotBatchTracking"},"NOT LOT TRACKING"]}]}]}]}]},"layer":"2","index":1},{"@-value":{"!":[{"and":[{"and":[{"and":[{"or":[{"==":[{"var":"record.OrderCode"},"4"]},{"==":[{"var":"record.OrderCode"},"6"]}]},{"var":"record.InventoryPart"}]},{"and":[{"==":[{"var":"record.Company"},{"var":"record.SenderCompany"}]},{"!=":[{"var":"record.SenderCompany"},null]}]}]},{"var":"record.SerialTracking"}]}]},"laye

Hi, Would it be possible to use assortments (caracteristic model, or any other available field on purchase part assortments) to set up Purchase Requisition (PR) rule ? The client request is to apply a PR authorisation rule as per 4 values setted on assortment.Today, they are using “Supplier ID” with these 4 values, so once the user choose a purchase part on the PR with a value on the Suplier Id, the process of PR authorisation is triggered. Thank youRegards,

We have a part that has been serial tracked but now we want to receive it without serial tracking so we tried to delete it but we have got problem. We are using IFS APP 9. At the beginning when the part was created, all checkboxes in Part/General/Serial tracking were checked. The part has been in stock once but now it is all out from stock. Now we want to receive new coming PO without any Serial tracking.We could disable all checkboxes except “After Delivery Serial Tracking.”When we try to disable it and save it comes upp error message “ The part exists in part serial catalog”We tried to delite the part from Part Serial catalog but it comes up another error message “It is only allowed to remove a serial that has been renamed”Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

We some parts that have been set with Serial Tracking in error.  I’m trying to clear the flags but am getting an error that “The part exists in the part serial catalogue”.  What can we do to clear the Serial Tracking on these parts?   

In the calculated planning data, the 'period' field holds a value of 12. Does this value refer to a past period or a future period in this context?  If the current period is November, what specific periods does this calculation encompass or refer to?

Currently, when a Sales Part is created, it is automatically defaulting to a Sourcing Option of Inventory Order.  We are using a the Sales Part Counter (Event Action) to generate a new Sales Part number, and even when the team sets the Sourcing Option to Shop Order, once the Part Counter gives them the new number and they place it into the Sales Part Number field, the Sourcing Option reverts back to Inventory Order, and they have to change it again to Shop Order.  Is there a way to set the default for our Sales Parts to Shop Order instead of Inventory Order?
