View Configuration

Explanation

This activity is used to view the details for a configured part. It is not possible to change any information.

A configuration is a unique combination of characteristics and options that is used in conjunction with a configurable part. The configuration of a configurable part can be initiated in IFS/Customer Order, IFS/CRM, IFS/Shop Order, and IFS/Dynamic Order Processing.

The status of the configuration is always set to Incomplete at the start of a configuration. The status will automatically set to Complete when all mandatory and optional characteristics have a valid option value. When the status is Complete, connected orders can be released for further processing. You can manually change the status to Parked at any time during the configuration, which means that connected orders cannot be released until the configuration is manually changed to Complete.

The configuration for a configurable part can be viewed using the View Configuration assistant. The assistant can be accessed from business opportunity, estimate item, sales quotation, customer order, return material authorization, RMA package part structure, interim header, shop order, and DOP by clicking Configuration and then View.

Once the customer order is released, it is not possible to configure a configurable component part which is included in a Package Part if the supply code of the customer order line is Internal Purchase Direct or Purchase Order Direct. Moreover, if the demand code for the package part is Internal Purchase Direct, configuration cannot be changed in the internal customer order line.

Prerequisites

IFS/Configuration Back Office and IFS/Configuration Characteristic must have been installed. The part must have a configuration.
