An information source is a combination of facts and dimensions (base data)
which is structured to hold information designed to be used to compile reports
and analytics using the IFS Business Reporter tool. Refer the IFS Cloud Documentation
and eLearning for more information about this tool.
One or more of these information sources can be used when creating an IFS
Business Reporter report.
General Description
The Shop Order information source is mainly based on IFS/Shop Order. The
main purpose of this information source is to present shop order data to support
high level summarizations and analyses to evaluate the shop floor performance,
for instance, using the Count Perfect Shop Order metrics.
Reports/Analysis
- Shop order performance analysis (e.g., monthly on time, early, and late
shop order analysis)
- Shop order cost analysis (e.g., planned and actual scrap costs, planned
and actual accumulated cost per product)
Access Types
- Online
- Data Mart
Specific Attributes
- Lot Size:
The desired lot size. You can use this measure to study changes over time
for a specific part.
- Original Lot Size:
The original lot size. This measure can for instance, be used together with
the lot size in order to follow up over time if updates are often applied
on a specific part or a group of parts.
- Operation Scrapped:
The quantity of the parts scrapped during the manufacturing process. This
measure facilitates the option to follow up on the number of scrapped parts
for a defined period, i.e., on a weekly, monthly or quarterly basis.
- Quantity Remaining:
This is a count of the remaining quantity. You can use this measure to follow
up on the quantity of parts planned to be manufactured during a specific
time period but not completed.
- Planned Op Scrap:
The quantity that is planned to be scrapped on the shop order. This value
is calculated as: Scrap Factor (%) × Lot
Size.
- Pegged Quantity:
The quantity of the ordered part that is pegged. This implies a fixed connection
between a demand and a supply (sometimes called fixed booking). The pegged
supply quantity (when the parts are received into stock), will be automatically
reserved for the demand. You can use this measure to keep track of the amount
of a specific part that is pegged and the type of object(s) that represents
the demand.
- Total Std Accum Cost:
This is an estimated or predetermined cost of performing an operation or
producing a good or service under normal conditions. Standard costs are
used as target costs (or the basis for comparison with the actual costs),
and are developed from historical data analysis or from time and motion
studies. They almost always vary from actual costs, because every situation
has its share of unpredictable factors.
- Total Est Accum Cost:
The estimated cost is an expense that has been forecasted and which pertains
to a given business purpose, product or project. An example of an estimated
cost might be a forecast made for the expenses involved in manufacturing
a product that is still under construction.
- Actual Accumulated Cost Total:
Actual cost is defined as the costs actually incurred and recorded in accomplishing
work performed during a given time period for a scheduled activity or workbreakdown
structure component, i.e., an actual amount paid (as opposed to estimated
cost or standard cost). This measure includes amounts for direct labor,
direct material, and other direct charges.
- Internal WIP:
Work in progress (WIP) is the segment in the manufacturing process that
has not been finished or recorded as a processed product or service. This
measure represents all internal WIP, not including any WIP at the supplier
site. You can use this measure to follow up on how the value of the Internal
WIP varies over time.
- WIP at Supplier:
Work in progress (WIP) is the segment in the manufacturing process that
has not been finished or recorded as a processed product or service. This
measure represents all external WIP. You can use this measure to follow
up on how the value of the external WIP located at the supplier site varies
over time.
- Total Std Level Scrap Cost:
Scrap is waste that either has no economic value or only the value of its
basic material content recoverable through recycling. This measure represents
the market or sale price of the total quantity scrapped during the manufacturing
process.
- Operation Scrap Cost:
The actual scrapping costs for the operation of manufacture.
- Count Shop Orders:
Counted measures are created to facilitate the possibility to compare and
combine counts of specific measures in the same record. Each shop order
included in a record is counted and you can use the count to calculate values
per shop order.
- Count Parked Shop Orders:
Each parked shop order is counted and can be used to get the number of parked
shop orders included in a record.
- Count Closed Shop Orders:
Each closed shop order is counted and can be used to get the number of closed
shop orders included in a record.
- Count Tardy Shop Orders:
When the finish date of a shop order is later than its need date it is counted
as a tardy shop order. This value can be used to get the number of tardy
shop orders in a record.
- Tardiness:
The number of days the shop order is falling behind its need date. You can
for instance use this measure to find shop orders with tardiness greater
than a predefined number of days.
- Count Perfect Shop Orders:
When the completed quantity of a shop order is equal to its lot size and
it is finished on time it is counted as a perfect shop order.
- Count Started On Time:
If the actual start date of the shop order is the same as its planned start
date, it is counted as a started on time shop order.
- Count Started Late:
If the actual start date of the shop order is later than its planned start
date, it is counted as a started late shop order.
- Count Started Early:
If the actual start date of the shop order is earlier than its planned start
date, it is counted as a started early shop order.
- Earliness:
The number of days from the actual start date to the planned start date.
- Count Finished On Time:
When the closed date of the shop order is equal to its need date, it is
counted as a finished on time shop order.
- Order Qty Deviation:
Sum of the operation deviation for the operations on this shop order. An
operation deviation is booked when the sum of the quantity completed and
scrapped on an operation differs from the planned operation quantity.
You can use this measure to study the total operation deviation for a specific
part or orders during a defined period.

Actual Qty per Machine Hour = (Reported
Qty)/(Actual Machine Setup Time + Actual Machine Run Time).
- Machine Efficiency:
This value indicates whether more or less machine time than planned was
used in production relative the quantity produced. A value above 100 means
that less time was used per produced item and a value below 100 means more
time was used. It is calculated as: ((Reported
Qty Complete + Reported Qty Scrap)/(Actual Machine Setup + Actual Machine
Runtime))/(Planned Operation Qty/(Planned Machine Setup + Planned Machine
Runtime)) x 100.

in production relative the quantity produced. A value above 100 means that
less time was used per produced item and a value below 100 means more time
was used. It is calculated as: ((Reported
Qty Complete + Reported Qty Scrap)/(Actual Setup Man Hours + Actual Man
Hours))/(Planned Operation Qty/(Planned Setup Man Hours + Planned Man Hours))
x 100.
- Machine Productivity:
This value indicates whether the items approved on the operation where produced
with less or more machine time per time unit than planned or not. A value
above 100 means more approved items were produced per time unit than planned
and a value below 100 means more time was used. It is calculated as:
Machine Efficiency × Reported Qty Complete/(Reported
Qty Complete + Reported Qty Scrap).
- Labor Productivity:
This value indicates whether the items approved on the operation where produced
with less or more labor time per time unit than planned or not. A value
above 100 means more approved items were produced per time unit than planned
and a value below 100 means more time was used. Calculated as:
Labor Efficiency × Reported Qty Complete/(Reported
Qty Complete + Reported Qty Scrap).
- Operation Qty Deviation: Deviation
between the actual completed and scrapped quantities relative to the planned
operation quantity. A positive operation deviation is created when an operation
is over reported. A negative operation deviation is created when an operation
is closed with the quantity reported which is less than planned.
Note: There is a limitation related to the following measures: Planned
Qty per Machine Hour, Actual Qty per Machine Hour, Machine Efficiency, Labor
Efficiency, Machine Productivity, Labor Productivity.
These values are for individual operations taken from operation statistics.
Therefore if a report is generated for multiple operations, these values
are not correct. For example, if you generate a report to view the efficiency
of all the operations finished in the previous month as a single value,
this would not be correct.
To get the correct value for cost measures
in this information source, aggregated shop order costs should be calculated
for the site using the Aggregate Shop Order Costs per Shop Order
dialog box
- Actual Labor
OH Cost: The actual labor overhead cost occurred
and reported. Usually it include cost of supervisors and non-direct labor
cost, like supporting labor cost.

resource share, this value is directly multiplied with the machine runtime.
- Planned Setup Resource Hours:
The machine setup time considering the resource share planned for the operation.
Calculated as: Machine Setup Time * Resource Share.
- Resource Share: This
indicates how big share of the capacity of a work center resource the operation
will utilize during its duration. The value entered must be higher than
0 and not higher than 1. If 0.5 is entered this means the operation will
utilize 50% of the resource capacity during its duration. If a value for
Resource Share per Unit has been entered this value is calculated as Resource
Share per Unit * Quantity and cannot be manually updated. The cost and load
of both machine setup and runtime of the operation is affected by this value.

The quantity of the component part remaining to be reserved for the shop
order.
- Required Qty:
The total quantity of component parts needed for the shop order material
line. This information is calculated based on the quantity per parent part
and the lot size of the shop order. The quantity required is calculated:
Quantity Required = ((Quantity per Assembly * Lot Size)/(1 - (Scrap Factor/100)))
+ Component Scrap. You can compare this
measure with: Component Scrap, Issued Qty, Qty per Assembly, Remaining Qty
and Scrapped Qty in the same record too to check if the required quantity
is equal to Qty Issued and if not, the cause.
- Scrap Factor:
The scrap factor as a percentage, indicating how much of the component part
is scrapped per unit of the parent part that is manufactured. This value
is used to determine the quantity of the component part required.

General Description
The Part Cost information source is mainly based on IFS/Costing. The main
purpose of this information source is to provide the option to analyze and compile
precalculated costs for different combinations of part number, cost set, template,
cost group and so on. It is often of interest to identify deviations between
the precalculated costs for different cost sets.
Reports/Analysis
- Value added and non-value added cost analysis
- Direct and indirect cost analysis
Access Types
- Online
- Data Mart
Specific Attributes
- Total Level Cost:
The total cost for this particular level of the part structure. Total level
cost does not include accumulated component material costs.
- Total Accum Cost:
This measure represents the total cost for a specific level and all underlying
levels in the part structure.
- Level Sales Cost:
Sales cost can be defined as the expenses directly related to creating the
goods or services being sold (for example, cost of raw materials, salaries
of persons turning raw materials into sellable goods, depreciation of equipment).
However, sales costs exclude other important expenses, like R & D, marketing,
and interest payments on debt. This measure represents the total cost for
this particular level of the part, including the sales overhead costs.
- Total Sales Cost:
The total accumulated cost including the sales overhead buckets
- Estimated Material Cost:
Material cost is the cost of the raw materials and components used to create
a product. The material cost of a product excludes any indirect costs, for
example, overhead associated with producing the product. This measure represents
the estimated material cost of the part and it is based on the value defined
in the inventory part register.
- Average Purchase Price:
This measure characterizes the price a certain product is typically sold
for.
Note: The part
must have been received from a purchase order before any value can be retrieved.
- Latest Purchase Price:
The latest purchase price for a certain product.
- Fixed Level Cost:
Fixed costs are usually defined as expenses that are not dependent on the
level of goods produced by the business. They tend to be time-related, such
as salaries or rent being paid per month, and are often referred to as overhead
costs. This is in contrast to variable costs, which are volume-related (and
are paid per quantity produced). This measure represents fixed costs linked
to a particular level of the part structure.
- Fixed Accumulated Cost:
The fixed cost for the part up to this level, including the costs for parts
in the underlying structure.
- Variable Level Cost:
Variable costs are expenses that change in proportion to the production
output. Variable costs are those costs that vary depending on a company's
production volume; they rise as production increases and fall as production
decreases. Variable costs differ from fixed costs which tend to remain the
same regardless of production output. Variable cost is the sum of marginal
costs over all units produced. This measure represents the variable costs
linked to a particular level of the part structure.
- Variable Accum Cost:
The variable cost for the part up to this level, including the costs for
parts in the underlying structure.
- Level Scrap Cost:
The scrap cost is how much a physical asset's individual components are
worth when the asset itself is deemed no longer usable. This measure represents
the scrap costs linked to a particular level of the part structure.
- Accum Scrap Cost:
The scrap cost for the part up to this level, including the costs for parts
in the underlying structure.
- Indirect Level Cost:
Indirect cost means costs that are not directly accountable to a cost object
(such as a particular project, facility, function or product). Indirect
costs may be either fixed or variable. Indirect costs include administration,
personnel and security costs. These are costs which are not directly related
to production. This measure represents the indirect costs linked to a particular
level of the part structure.
- Indirect Accum Cost:
The indirect cost for the part up to this level, including the costs for
parts in the underlying structure.
- Direct Level Cost:
Direct costs are directly attributable to the object. In manufacturing the
portion of operating costs that is directly assignable to a specific product
or process is a direct cost. Examples of direct costs are materials, labor
and expenses related to the production of a product. This measure represents
the direct costs linked to a particular level of the part structure.
- Direct Accum Cost:
The amount of cost considered as direct for the part up to this level, including
the costs for parts in the underlying structure.
- Sunk Level Cost:
A sunk cost is a retrospective (past) cost that has already been incurred
and cannot be recovered. A sunk cost differs from other, future costs that
a business may face, such as inventory costs or R&D expenses, because
it has already happened. Sunk costs are independent of any event that may
occur in the future. This measure represents the sunk costs linked to a
particular level of the part structure.
- Sunk Accum Cost:
The sunk cost for the part up to this level, including the costs for parts
in the underlying structure.
- Relevant Level Cost:
A relevant cost is a cost that differs between alternatives being considered.
Relevant costs are decision specific, meaning that a relevant cost may be
important in one situation but irrelevant in another. Examples of when management
uses relevant costs can be seen when it is determining whether to sell or
keep a business unit, make or buy an item, or accept a special order. This
measure represents the relevant costs linked to a particular level of the
part structure.
- Relevant Accum Cost:
The relevant cost for the part up to this level, including the costs for
parts in the underlying structure.
- Value Added Level Cost:
The costs for the enhancement a company gives its product or service before
offering the product to customers. Value added is used to describe instances
where a firm takes a product and provides potential customers with a feature
or add-on that gives it a greater sense of value. For example, offering
one year of free support on a new computer would be a value added feature
and the cost for this is a value added cost. This measure represents the
value added costs linked to a particular level of the part structure.
- Value Added Accum Cost:
The amount of accumulated cost that is to be considered as value added costs.
- Non Value Added Level Cost:
Time and/or money spent on an activity or task that adds to the total cost,
but does not enhance the value of the product in the eyes of the customer.
For example, in the manufacturing industry, when equipment breaks down,
it can significantly delay production. To fulfill standing obligations,
the company may need to expedite the production process, taking on extra
costs such as overtime pay for workers or possibly temporary employees to
keep production on schedule. Equipment breakdowns then are non-value added
costs that can in turn lead to additional non-value added costs such as
wait time. This measure represents the non-value added costs linked to a
particular level of the part structure.
- Non Value Added Accum Cost:
The amount of accumulated cost to be considered as a non-value adding cost.
- Supportive Act Accum Cost:
The amount of accumulated cost to be considered as a supportive cost.
- Unit Related Level Cost:
Unit cost is the cost incurred by a company to produce, store and sell one
unit of a particular product. Unit costs include all fixed costs (i.e.,
plant and equipment) and all variable costs (labor, materials, and so on.)
involved in production. This measure represents the unit related costs linked
to a particular level of the part structure.
- Unit Related Accum Cost:
The amount of accumulated cost to be considered as a unit related cost.
- Batch Related Level Cost:
Batch costs can be defined as the identification and assignment of those
costs incurred in completing the manufacture of a specified batch of components.
For example, the cost to set up a machine to run a batch of 5,000 items
is a batch related cost.
- Batch Related Accum Cost:
The amount of accumulated cost to be considered as a batch related cost.
- Product Related Level Cost:
Product cost incurred by a business when running the manufacturing process.
It is the cost of direct labor, direct materials, consumable production
supplies, and manufacturing overhead that are used to create a product.
This measure represents the product related costs linked to a particular
level of the part structure.
- Product Related Accum Cost:
The amount of accumulated cost to be considered as a product related cost.
- Facility Sust Level Cost:
Facility sustaining costs are incurred to support the organization as a
whole and not for individual products. Therefore they should not be allocated
to products for most decisions. Any allocation will be arbitrary. This measure
represents the facility sustaining costs linked to a particular level of
the part structure.
- Facility Sust Accum Cost:
The amount of accumulated cost to be considered as a facility sustaining
cost.
Note: Value added-, non-value added-, supportive-, unit-, batch-,
product- and facility sustaining costs are only assigned to activities when
using activity based costing.
