Dear IFS Community,  IFS Support team forwarded me to here with the question: In Germany there will be a mandatory e-invoicing.Please see the below link:https://www.bdo.global/en-gb/insights/tax/indirect-tax/germany-mandatory-e-invoicing-what-you-need-to-know!As this is a mandatory government regulation, my question would be, when, how and which UPD will IFS provide an official solution to handle this requirement?I also found this post: E-invoicing for Germany | IFS Community but this does not contains the tags IFS mentioned, so I raised this topi again.  Kind regards, Balazs

I have inventory parts where I don’t want to receive MRP planned demand, I want the demand to only be created by the upper level. The problem with next level demand planning is that it doesn’t generate purchase requisitions. Is it possible to set the planning method or manufacturing structure to support this, or am I better off deleting forecast for said parts?

Hi I was wondering if there was some documentation or suggestions for dealing with First Article Inspection for manufacturing on IFS. I was hoping for something that would help for implementating.Thanks  

Hi All, Reaching out to customers who have upgraded or are in the process of upgrading to the IFS Cloud version. What AI capabilities have you been able to leverage during the implementation to reduce time to upgrade and accuracy of migration. With the use cases around Claude and other AI models in code generation and analysis, this seems a good use case to help customers with the upgrade process. Appreciate everyone’s inputs. Thanks,Nitin. 

Hello eveyrone,In the GL Balance Analysis screen, is there any way to filter out or eliminate lines with a zero balance?We currently see accounts with no postings (debit = 0, credit = 0, balance = 0) being displayed year after year due to the automatic opening balance.These lines are not relevant from a business point of view.Can anyone please advise if there is a standard way (filter, setting, parameter) to hide or exclude zero balance lines?Thank you. Regards,Fatimetou Taleb

Does IFS have Supply Chain Finance payment setup? We are currently stuying some options to improve AP process and we can choose SCF but we need to control it in IFS when supplier get paid earlier and when we process the payment to the bank

Hi, We’re on Cloud 25R1 SU5. Have a general question about using Dispatch Console.As dispatch console shows only a limited date range into the past (max 14 days), what is the expected tool to view or plan active assignments and work tasks that are, say, older than 14 days? The dispatchers then have to use two or more pages - one for the tasks that appear on DC and the others for the tasks that don’t appear? How do you make this process easier for the dispatchers?Cheers.

We are using the Migration Toolkit (mtk tables) to migrate from a legacy system to IFS Cloud. All is going well except for the material value of components issued to shop orders. For a given component, it can be issued to multiple shop orders at different values. The mtk lot serial table and the mtk material tables have fields for inventory value but what we put in these fields is ignored. Regardless of what we do, components are issued to the shop order using the inventory value on the inv part. Does someone have a process for migrating wip value when the component’s value can be different on different shop orders.

Hello community,  I am facing a question here… how to calculate the lead time for all routing alternates with status buildable at once in IFS Cloud?   I can do it one by one but when I mark two or more, the option disappears. I was thinking about BPA but as I am not an IT girl, I asked GPT for help. Can somebody confirm that this would be doable or propose suitable adjustements?  START (Scheduled or Manual)routing_alternatives =  SELECT contract,         part_no,         routing_revision,         alternative_no  FROM Routing_Alternative  WHERE objstate = 'Released'FOR EACH routing_alternative IN routing_alternativesLOOP   CALL Routing_Alternative_API.Calculate_Manufacturing_Lead_Time(        contract          => routing_alternative.contract,        part_no           => routing_alternative.part_no,        routing_revision  => routing_alternative.routing_revision,        alternative_no    => routing_alternative.alternative_no   )END LOOPEND Thank you for your support, BRPetra

Hi,We are currently setting up our IFS Cloud, and we will be hosting a Use Place Dev Environment for customization development.We have the need to install customizations daily in our Use Place Dev Environment. Thus, we need to automate this similarly to AutoBuilder.Build a Delivery - Technical Documentation For IFS CloudWe found the above link in your guide on how to install a delivery manually.We have some questions on this and things to clarify.Thus, we need your support on how to set up AB for IFS Cloud in the Use Place?Best Regards,Rumesh

Hello everyone,To run a BPA from an API, I have been using this URL for a while:main/ifsapplications/projection/engine-rest/process-definition/key/BPA_NAME/startAnd in the body of the API, I pass it the property:“withVariablesInReturn”: trueThis allows me to directly retrieve all the variables used in the workflow in the API return.However, I have noticed that this no longer works beyond SU6 in 25R1.Have you encountered this issue?Thank you.Theo

Hello Good Folks in the Community,I am using IFS.ai services in a 25R1 IFS instance and ran in to situations where IFS.ai Co-pilot did not return answers to my questions but responded saying “I’m sorry, I don’t have enough information to answer that question. Could you provide more details?”  Usual token consumption in Copilot is 50 tokens/question. Hence, i am now wondering do i get charged 50 tokens for those questions that goes unanswered? Is there a way based on the Co-Pilot response (returns an error, doesn’t provide an answer etc.) that I could straightaway know that tokens are not consumed (without looking at the token consumption report)? Thanks! Sachitha D

Hello Community,During the shipment process in IFS Cloud,  a client sometimes pack goods that exceed the standard height defined for the Handling Unit Type. We can manually adjust the height of the handling unit in the shipment’s Handling Unit Structure, but the operative volume does not update automatically based on the new height.Is there a standard way in IFS Cloud to ensure that when I manually update the HU height (or when the packed goods exceed the defined height), the operative volume recalculates automatically?If not, is there an intended setup, configuration (e.g., additive volume), or recommended workaround (event action, customization, or integration approach) to achieve this?Or will this be updated in the coming releases? Do we have this on the pipeline for future releases?Thanks in advance!

Hi CommunityI’m looking for few references in IFS AI functionalities for Asset Management. I’m specially interested in Anomaly Detection, Asset Performance Management,  Equipment Health Monitoring areas.Thanks. 

Hello everyone,I was excited when they announced that in 25R1 users can be granted permissions to execute workflows on projections they normally do not have access to - see here: However I don’t seem to be able to make it work. I have a very simple test workflow run by clicking a button just reading from a projection not normally accessible to the basic user, I granted Internal access (also tried Full access out of frustration) for the workflow for the relevant permission set and I still get the FndProjectionGrant.SRV_NOT_ACCESS error.Has anyone else experienced the same issue? Or were you able to make it work? I couldn’t find any posts on this topic, which suggests to me I might be doing something wrong...

Hi,we are currently deploying IFS Scan It on Zebra Android devices (Android 14+) in a shared-device environment managed via SOTI MobiControl. We have identified a critical technical issue during the FIDO2/NFC authentication flow that prevent a successful rollout:When IFS Scan It initiates an authentication request for a FIDO2 security key (USB), the Android Credential Manager provides the user with the option to create a local screen lock or a device-bound Passkey: In our shared-device environment, it is critical that users do not have the option to set private PINs or Passkeys on shared hardware. This leads to accidental lockouts and high administrative overhead. We have already encountered the issue of some users setting a PIN on shared devices. Could you kindly confirm whether there is a plan to fix this issue?

Hello everyone,I hope you’re doing well.Does anyone have access to the 25R2 version and has tested a workflow with a commit procedure? Is this restriction still present in 25R2? Thank you in advance.

Hi everyone, I have a customer who encounters a weird issue with configured columns that are getting reset. I suspect this to be a bug. The user configures the columns within his personal user profile, but for no specific time slots the columns are getting reset back to what I believe is the standard column configuration within the basis profile.The user only encounters the problem on the screen of Posting Proposals.I’ve tried to set up history log on that page, but it doesnt log the changes. To do it even more confusing, if the user is then waiting and not manually configuring them back to his preferred positions, they will automatically within like 1-2 hours go back to his configured way. Happening in IFS10 UPD25

Good afternoon,Is it possible to create a Quick Report with an SQL query that lists currently active users for a selected company?Kind regards,Jan 

Hi,We are using Aurena Agent and this gives us possibility to print on physical printers. We can set default printer for logical printers, but is it possible to pre-define physical printer to be default printer and the “default” printer will be filled out in Print Dialog by default?The printer is already defined as default printer on this PC, but it does not help. “No Printout” is filled out in Print Dialog.Can set up Print Dialog so it will “remember” the last used/selected printer?I think PrintDialog “remembered” the last used printer in earlier versions of IFS Cloud (22R1-23R1) but not after the last update (23R2Su5).Br.
