This issue is a result of the current technical design. Parts that are set to obsolete/prototype (Demands not allowed) status are filtered out from the Part LOV in the Material Requisition lines. Therefore, the Framework is not able to make a connection to fetch the value for Part Description as the Description is fetched through a reference defined in the entity. This is the reason why the description disappears after the status change in the scenario in question.

Hello.  I am testing DOP with visual planning.  I have a customer order released with 1 manufactured finished good part, 1 manufactured component, and 2 purchased components, all set as DOP.  I released my customer order, which automatically created shop orders for the 2 manufactured parts (in planned status, we can ignore purchased parts for now).  I go into Visual Shop Order Operations Planning and move my finished good order up 2 days as I have a conflict with other demand.  I would anticipate that my manufactured component order would move as well since they are connected, but it did not.  I now have my component order being made after my finished good order (which makes no sense).  I do have an alarm, but I am wondering if there is a way to automate the move of component orders with the finished good order.  Does this exist?  If so, how would I set this up to keep them together when I am doing machine planning for the finished good?Robin 

Hi,Does anyone have any clue on this? -Not recurring for a particular record, not occurring every time for a particular record also.   Thank you.

I have a supplier agreement blanket order for our fuel provider.  We have three different types of fuel that are delivered together and invoiced on one invoice, three lines.Is there a way to create a release with multiple part lines?  I have only been able to release one line with it’s own PO for each one, therefore three PO’s for each invoice.I would prefer to do one release for the three part lines on one PO.

Anybody have any idea what this error means and how to fix it?  I am trying to cancel two PO lines that are obsolete.  When I try to cancel, we get this error.  Initiated from a Work Task Material Requisition.  Work task is in work done status. 

Hi,In our current system we cannot charge zero on a part unless we enter a predefined reason. I remember running into something similar in IFS in the past. I couldn’t charge zero on a sales part. Is this an option in IFS Cloud?

Hello.  As a relatively new user to IFS, I am still learning how the system works.  One of the issues in our organization is the amount of time it takes to create a repair order.  In Oracle, when I created a rework/repair order, I was able to copy a routing from a dummy part that was used for all repair/rework orders.  Is there a capability in IFS to create a dummy part to reference in the job for the routing that should be used?  Having to create them for every part that may need to be repaired is cumbersome, so I am looking for a better way.  Any ideas?Thank you!Robin

I am trying to book part in and getting an error of InventoryPartInStock. MAPP Number not required for Part 203619. Please use “*”My question is what is a MAPP number and where do i find it to change it?

I have a user that is unable to login to her IFS account.  She can enter her credentials.  It just hangs after that.  Any suggestions.  I had her clear her ifs cache.  

Is there a way to  sort the Delivery number Alphanumeric from for example 1 to 100. Now it sorts all numbers 1, 10 ,11, etc, and then 2, 20, 21 etc. This is very unclear.  

Dear Community-Members,We sell high tech machines.In future, we will also be selling our machines as Product as a Service (PaaS). This means that the customer no longer pays a one-off price, but instead pays an annual fee (subscription) over n years based on attributes such as the licence model, terms and services purchased.Two areas can be roughly identified here:- Mapping of the PaaS process with offer, delivery and a clean subscription billing process (physical delivery vs yearly billing)- Options for defining the licence models, similar to an EMS (Entitlement Management System)Are there any IFS customers that implemented such a business model with IFS or third-party providers?We are grateful for any input and would be happy to exchange ideas.Thank you very much!Mattis

In the new Supplier Performance Evaluation and Rating functionality (22R1), one can enter KPIs and score suppliers against these KPIs on a period level.When creating a new periodic scoring, you first have to create the header, defining the period. Then adding the KPI Groups, one by one, you want to measure (which can be a few like five to ten). Then you need to add suppliers, one by one. And if you want to measure more than a few suppliers, lets say 50-100, this is a huge job to add them manually and one-by-one, with limited control of getting it right.Ok, let’s say we do that manually, and complete the evaluation. When it’s time for a new periodic review, maybe one per month or quarter, one would like to copy paste the old setup, including kpi groups and suppliers, and just change the dates. But when doing copy using the framework copy function, only the header gets copied.Is there any other way to do this copy / creation of a new period?

Hello.  Our planning team would like the ability to firm a shop order once the machine is scheduled and materials are on site.  This action would prevent any further MRP messages on the order as the order is scheduled and ready for production. Does this exist in IFS?Thank you!

Is it possible to change Inventory Parts to Non Inventory Parts?We have accidently loaded via our Parts Supplier lots of parts as Inventory Parts when they should have been Non Inventory Parts.We do not want to stock them on Inventory, we should only be able to purchase them?Thanks, 

Hi,To record the Tank Truck Unload, we make an indirect job record in Shop Floor Workbench so that we have data on the average/maximum unloading times per raw material and number of unloads.The problem is that an operator can be working on 2 Tank Truck Unloads at the same time, but in IFS he can't start two indirect jobs at the same time. When he starts the second entry, the first indirect job is automatically closed.Is there a solution to this problem?Best regards,Luísa Quintas

Hi All,We are seeking a solution in IFS App10 based on industry best practice.Situation: During year-end inventory counting, certian amount of customer owned stock has been counted out (complete lot-batch quantity). After sometimes, some stock has been discovered. So, we need to count-in those customer owned stock back to our inventory.What is the best practice in IFS? 

Hi there,I’m trying to manage an intercompany transaction but I receive an error message in incoming customer order so the CO is never created.The setup is done, I have followed the document about intersite setup I found here and I have checked that the Connectivity messages is activated.When sending the PO from Site 1 (Company A) to the supplier (connected to the company B), I receive this error message:However, the EDI coordinator is entered in customer: Any idea?Thanks in advance.

Hi,Is there any mechanism to keep record of supplier evaluations?There is a field in Supplier/SRM Info that can store supplier rating, but is there any rating mechanism like a weighted factor to input the scores for each criteria of supplier evaluation?Is supplier audit a suitable tool for this? It keeps record of standards and business areas being audited and does not seem to be suitable for a long checklist. But even if so, is there any way to record the result of the evaluation for each area as a score so that a total score can be generated as supplier rating? Thanks in advance,

Hi!Is it possible to refill your Remote Warehouse from another Site via Shipment Order?Let’s say we have two Sites in the same Company. Site A and Site B.The central warehouse for the company is located on Site A.Site B does not have a central warehouse, but it has several Remote Warehouses in various locations.Can I somehow set up that the refill should create a Shipment Order from Site A to a Remote Warehouse on Site B? I can do this manually with a Shipment Order.So far I’ve only found that refill can be done with Put Away, but that is within the same site if I remember correctly.We are running 22R1. 

We have a scenario where we send raw material to our outside supplier to make a product, and we are trying to set the Inventory Part as Purchase part type, create product structure so that when we create the Purchase Order, we have the ability to ship the raw materials against the PO. When sending the components to the supplier, we usually send more than what is required to account for the loss of material during transit or some damages at the supplier location. When the material is received, we do sometimes receive the extra components back, or sometimes it is considered as scrap at the supplier. If the material is scrapped, during the PO receipt, is there an option to ‘Scrap Components’ against the PO?Currently, any extra material we are sending on the PO is resulting in transaction posting as ‘M19 - Price Diff Purch’ posting type which is tied up to our material price variance account. We don’t want this to go to our variance account since in reality the material will be scrapped. W

 For Italian invoices we are looking for the possibility to send extra information, i.e. the codice tipo and codice valore. We can see that the IT Einvoice transformer does contain both of them, but we can't find out where to fill the values.Does anybody have experience with this? And more important, willing to share? ;-)
