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 Online
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.
- Note: To get the correct values for measure items
Total Std Accum Cost,
Total Est Accum Cost, Actual Accumulated Cost
Total, Internal WIP, External WIP, Total Std Level Scrap Cost and
Operation Scrapped Cost, aggregated shop order costs should be calculated for the site using the
Aggregate Shop Order Costs per Shop Order dialog box.

Machine Setup Cost + Actual Machine Cost.
Note: Planned costs
for the operation: Planned Labor Setup Cost, Planned Labor Cost, Planned
Machine Setup Cost and Planned Machine Cost.
The values are calculated based on the values in the
Shop Order Costs/Costed Operation tab. To have the correct values here, shop order cost estimates
should be calculated when any update of lot size or other factors that
affect the planned cost have been changed. This value does not include
overhead costs.
Actual costs for the operation: Actual Labor Setup Cost, Actual Labor Cost,
Actual Machine Setup Cost and Actual Machine Cost.
Actual costs for the operation are calculated based on labor transactions.
This does not include overheads.
- Planned Subcontracting Cost: This measure represents the planned
cost for purchasing the execution of the operation from a subcontractor. The
values are calculated based on the values in the
Shop Order Costs/Costed Operation
tab.
To have the correct values here, shop order cost estimates should be
calculated when any update of lot size or other factors that affect the
planned cost has been changed. Subcontracting overheads and additional costs
are also included in this.
- Actual Subcontracting Cost: The actual cost for purchasing the execution of
the operation from a subcontractor. The actual subcontracting costs are
based on the transactions. The value includes the overheads and additional
costs.
- Planned Qty per Machine Hour: This measure represent the quantity planned to
be produced per machine hour and it is calculated as:
Planned Qty per
Machine Hour = (Planned Qty)/(Planned Machine Setup Time + Planned Machine
Run Time).
- Actual Qty per Machine Hour: The actual quantity produced per machine hour
and is calculated as: 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.
- Labor Efficiency: This value indicates whether more or less man hours 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 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.
- Actual
Machine OH Cost: The actual machine overhead cost
occurred and reported. Usually it includes cost of electricity, gas, rent,
depreciation and more.

machine runtime. If the operation has a fixed 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.

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.
