Purchase Requisition to Purchase Order Behavior

We are in the process of setting up and implementing IFS Cloud and I have a concern around purchase requisitions to purchase order behavior. I am running MS One Part and MRP to generate purchase requisitions. The purchase requisitions are being created as I expect. However, I have concerns about the behavior that is taking place when converting requisitions to orders. As demonstrated in the upper section of screen shots below, when a 7/23 requisition was created through MRP, and I converted it to a PO, and re-ran MRP, the 7/23 requisition was closed as expected since the need was replaced by an order for that date (7/23).In the lower section of the screenshot, I converted a purchase requisition in the future (9/1) to a purchase order to send to my supplier as they require a lead time on orders in the future which is typical for many of our purchase parts. I expected (and need) that the 9/1 requisition would move to closed and it did do that. However, it closed the 9/1 requisition, elim

"Connect to activity" is not possible after the customer order is released

Hi,It isn’t possible to connect a project activity from the order object if the item has moved beyond the Planned status, regardless of whether it is a Customer Order Line, Purchase Order Line, or Shop Order. The item must be in Planned status to enable the connection.However, several customers have raised concerns about this limitation, expressing the need to have the “Connect to Activity” functionality available even after the Customer Order (CO) is released to connect projects, as this is a common scenario in real-world business operations. Thanks,Vihan Weerapura

Supplier Self Billing for new Site

We have a supplier set up to be a self-billing account and when we receive product at our various sites, we are seeing the “AS” self-billing invoices processed and in our supplier analysis to be posted. However, we have recently added a new Site to our IFS system, and even though we are using the same supplier, the receipts done in this new Site are not being processed as a self-billing invoice. Is there another setting that we are missing or something else that has to be run that is Site specific?

Customer Order Line Planned Ship Date

When manually adding customer order lines, the planned ship date is calculated and updated automatically and takes into consideration the external transport lead time. If we add customer order lines using the CustomerOrderHandling.svc/CustomerOrderLineSet api the planned ship date is not calculated/updated based on the external transport lead time. If we manually update the external transport lead time, the planned ship date will update. How do we have IFS update the planned ship date without the manual intervention?

Business Reporter - Dynamic Rolling 12

Anybody ever created a dynamic rolling 12-month report in Business Reporter for balance sheet items (including the Period 0 activity)? I’m running into issues, and wanted to know if someone had a better idea or an idea to tweak what I have. I have 23 column designs. The first is for the wanted YearPeriod. The next 11 are “previous YearPeriods within the same year (currently filtered to 2025)”. The next 11 columns I’m attempting to have the same conditions, but in the previous year (again, filtered to 2024). When I run the report for January, it’s perfect, it gives me 12 different months. For every month past January, it gives me an extra “December”, as my current filtering is telling the report to give me all of 2024. Example, if ran for March 2025, I will have 3 December 2024’s, 1 wanted and 2 extra columns, due to the filters of =2024 and 2 YearPeriods behind 202505 is January 2025. Any thoughts/suggestions/ideas/constructive criticisms are greatly appreciated!

Adding a customer field

Hi,Does anyone know a simple way to add a customer field to a IFS Page?In this scenario, I would like to add the “Task Description” field to the “Work Task Posting Analysis” or “Work Task Transactions” page.The Work “Task Description” field is already in the “Work Task Cost” page but it is not an option in the other 2 pages. Not sure why but it would have been only logical to have it there because WT numbers are had to associate with an actual job without the description.Does anyone know how to do this?Henry

Apps10 – ASN output in XML – custom field needed

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can output an XML file for an Advanced Shipping Notice (ASN) that includes a custom field (Amazon Reference Number - ARN)?I’m using the standard SEND_DESPATCH_ADVISE message function and routing in IFS.Amazon requires the ARN to be included on the ASN for shipments, especially when using EDI for communication, so this change is essential for us.Thanks!

"Generate Metrics" button not available in License Management

Hi All, In IFS Cloud applications, License management window comes with a button “Generate Metrics”. This allows us to generate the license information realtime.

But the button is not available for IFSAPP user for a customer who is currently in 22R2 version.Has anyone came-across this issue and was able to resolve? Please let me know if there is any possibility to fix this issue.

Last Operation in a Shop Order

I am trying to find a Dormant time between the current executable operation VS last operation in a shop order. One option is I can go to Finish Date and identify but for our business need this might not be enough I am looking for when the operation in sequence was actually touched. Example I have operation 10, 20, and 30. 30 is executable, so I want to know when really the 20 was last touched? - It could be operation itself, material receiving, or last material receive date. My question is, where can I find all those dates in IFS cloud?

Lease expense calculation

Hello everyone I am trying to figure out why lease expense calculated by IFS is quite different between two periods despite the periods being the same number of days. Here is the lease terms and conditions: Lease expense was calculated for accounting period 6 (Feb 2 - March 29 2025) and period 9 (May 25 - June 28 2025). Both periods are 35 days each. This is the lease expense calculated for period 6, totaling 79,939.45 This is the lease expense calculated for period 9, totaling 73,530.06 . So period 6 lease expense is greater than period 9 lease expense by 6,409.39 despite both periods being 35 days. Would anyone have an idea of why there is such a large difference between them? Any help would be much appreciated.

Workflow - event action is not triggered - when record inserted by background job

@kamnlk @dsj I have a scenario where I want to trigger an async BPA WF based on new rows being inserted in INVOICE_TAB.When using an intercompany invoice scenario - customer invoice in company A and supplier invoice in company B, the supplier invoice in company B is created by Connectivity Outbox background job.It seems the event action / WF is not trigerred when record is being inserted by a Backgroung Job. Do you know if there’s any workaround for that?I did turn on Watch on the WF, but the only observations being logged are the ones for the Customer Invoice in company A which is created online.Any input on this is much appreciated.

is the community open to everybody?

I’m seeing few accounts which are taking over the place with non-IFS postings. Did the community open to people outside the established accounts base?
