I am getting some instalation erros related to the ServiceEngApp. We have some customizations there, but it’s the same eventhough I removed all the customization changes in relevant files.I am getting the same errors for the newly customized ServiceEngApp files as well. I just attached the error screen shot below. Please share if you have any idea on this?Error: Thanks & Regards,Asanka. 

Dear experts,I have an issue/question with relate to an MPL voucher 2026004280 connected with PO 15248636 an Project ID 1044946 in IFS. There are multiple lines with Posting type M189, M1,M10 and M62 lines for which, we cannot understand on how they are created. Purchase Order is already closed and have been matched with an Invoice in July 2026. Below are the details of the PO lines matched and  connected Invoices. PO lines matching details.Difference between Invoice Header Net Amount and Total Invoiced Amount of Matched PO LinesThe amounts highlighted in red are matched with charge lines, which makes sense.Now the issue is that, even these lines are matched and issues to the project in July 2026, connected Inventory Transactions are updated with M189 posting lines. See example below.GL lines connected with PO 15248636, Release no - 09 and Project ID - 1044946.Connected lines in Dist and Manu Postings analysis.Connected Transaction Revaluation Event details.Initial Arrival charge and R

Hi Everyone,I have a question regarding PM Actions and the available access-control mechanisms in IFS.I’ve noticed that an Administrator Group concept is available for areas such as PM Programs and Work Task Templates. However, I don’t see a similar administrator/access group option for PM Actions.PM Actions have Revision Control, which provides a way to control changes to an existing PM Action. However, the Revision Control option itself can be turned ON or OFF by users who have access to the PM Action.Our requirement is to restrict who can make changes to an existing PM Action and, more importantly, who is allowed to enable/disable Revision Control.I understand that it is possible to remove access to the Revision Control button through permission sets. However, I’m wondering why the Administrator Group concept cannot be used for PM Actions in the same way it is used for PM Programs and Work Task Templates.Thank youBest regards,Nipun G

Hi There,Could someone please put me in a right direction on the below issue. No recourses ( work center & labor class employees) loaded to PSO workbench after executing finite scheduling due to which shop orders are not getting scheduled.  

Hello, I am trying to add a connection between supplier and register arrivals.  Register arrivals uses the entity ReceiptInfo and view RECEIVABLE_OBJECT_INFO.When setting up the object connections for the ReceiptInfo entity, by default the view name is RECEIPT_INFO. By using this setup, together with the object connection transformation, SUPPLIER_ID=SENDER_ID, I was not being able to view the documents in the register arrivals page. So I changed the view in the object connections to RECEIVABLE_OBJECT_INFO. I also changed the transformation method as SENDER_ID is now SENDER.This works wonderfull, attachments from supplier are now visible in register arrivals.The problem exists now in the Receipt page, which uses the same entity but a different view.When I try to open any record in the receipt page, I got the following error message.This is understandable since the RECEIPT_SEQUENCE is key for RECEIPT_INFO, but it does not exists in RECEIVABLE_OBJECT_INFO. Is there any workaround, somethi

Hello IFS Community, im fairly new at working with Custom Entities and we are currently trying to add a new custom entity to Audits, we are copying this new rows from a different custom entity using a Custom Event, in this custom Entity we are adding rows and one of columns is  the Audit ID, the goal is that the user only see the Rows with the Audit ID related to the Actually Audit where this new row is being added. as you can tell in the picture below, the user can see Audit ID from different audits, in the example below, we are in Audit ID = 1 and in this list below, the user should only see Audit ID = 1. i was told that using a Entity Association in the Projection Configuration would do it, but it still doesn't work, what am i missing, your help will be truly appreciated. we are in 25R2.    

We use Shop Orders in IFS Manufacturing to manage production. Each Shop Order has a routing consisting of several operations, and production activities are reported through pages such as Report Shop Order Operation.During production, machines may break down and interrupt a Shop Order operation. Currently, production personnel report these failures by phone, and the maintenance team then creates the related Fault Report or Work Order in the Maintenance module.We would like production supervisors to register the Fault Report directly when a breakdown occurs and, if possible, link it to the relevant machine, work center, Shop Order, and operation. We also need the downtime caused by the equipment failure and maintenance activities to be reflected in the related production operation lines.Is there a standard IFS functionality or recommended configuration for integrating Shop Order Operations with Fault Reports or Work Orders? Can a Fault Report be created directly from the Shop Order or Re

I used the MAN_SUPP_INVOICE_API.Cancel__() to cancel multiple Supplier Invoices. but this action did not create any K Vouchers in order to reverse the I Vouchers which were created during the Supplier Invoice creation. Is there any way to create K Vouchers? or reverse this.

A. What is your idea?1) ClassificationOpportunity for improvement2) Brief descriptionIntroduce a standard Unit of Production (UOP) depreciation method within IFS Cloud Fixed Assets.Currently, customers who require depreciation based on actual asset consumption (e.g., units produced, machine hours, operating hours, kilometres travelled, tonnes mined) must implement custom solutions because IFS does not provide a native UOP depreciation method. This requirement has already resulted in customer-specific customizations and development efforts.The proposed enhancement would provide a standard depreciation method that:Maintains expected lifetime production/usage units. Captures actual units consumed for each depreciation period. Calculates depreciation based on actual asset usage rather than time. Supports manual entry, file uploads, and integrations. Provides standard validations and reporting.This enhancement would improve support for industries such as Mining, Manufacturing, Oil & Gas

Data Entry mistake 

I have a PO with part Order lines which has a quantity of 2, the distribution check box in the line pre-posting is automatically checked and the distribution is split 50%.  Is there some setting that does this ?  

If we are storing confidential data like SIN numbers, health insurance numbers, credit cards, etc… in IFS. Are we able to encrypt/mask those data from any user who shouldn’t have access to them including IFSAPP? I have started reading on Encrypting Oracle SQL but not yet certain if IFS supports this...

Hi All.I have created a survey using WorfkFlow Type: Object Information, and it works well as I answer through MWO Maintenance. But, if I answer the survey in techportal, the system does not save the object id and site.I had the same problem with app10 see (id object not saving eform answer through tech portal | IFS Community), and needed to fix with the local support. Does anyone know if IFS will fix this in IFS Cloud?I’m using:Application service update: 25.2.5Framework service update: 25.2.8IFS Cloud Web version: 25.2.8.20260709102253.0IFS Client Services version: 25.2.8.20260702055556.0IFS Client Notification version: 25.2.8.20260702050129.0IFS Chat version: 25.2.8.20260702075807.0IFS OData provider version: 25.2.8.20260707080628.0 

A. What is your idea? 1) ClassificationOpportunity for improvement 2) Brief descriptionSearch panel displays two filters with the same label, “Part Description in Use” in Inventory Part page.From the user’s perspective, these appear to be duplicate PartDescriptionInUse filters, with no way to distinguish which underlying attribute each filter represents.  B.

If the service technician forgets to share the service report with the customer or forgets to save it, there is no way to generate the service report again, if the assignment is no longer in mWO.There should be a way of creating a service report in the Cloud without developing a report. This could possibly be solved by another wish, i.e by auto-attaching a service report to the assignment, which will be synchronized to IFS Cloud.

HiWhat is the connection between executing background jobs/database processes in IFS and actual database session? In 25R1 i have 2 jobs. Both are executing and have been executing for a while.  I can see that 1 of them have a process id, and therefore a database process. We can also only see a database session for that 1. Is it normal behaviour for a job to sit in executing status without a process ID? And does there being a process = a database session.All queues are set up with 1 process, so them being in different queues shouldnt matter. Or am i wrong about that

Hello,I am looking for a setting that we may have missed in IFS CLOUD for a feature that we had in IFS V8.In V8, when creating a new Work Order, Pre Postings are not populated, but they are automatically populated when connecting to a project.In IFS CLOUD, Pre Postings are not populated when connecting to a project.However, if we add a task to a Work Order, it inherits Pre Postings in a fully automated manner.It seems that the activity sequence that does not automatically integrate into the Pre Posting line when connecting to the project is missing.How can I have Pre Posting automatically populated when connecting to the project?Thank you in advance.Barth 

IFS Cloud 24.2.14In our ongoing work to improve performance and be less sensitive to disruptions, we note that on the top list for "SQL ordered by Elapsed Time", during a working day this sql is in fifth place (10th place for "SQL ordered by CPU Time)":sql_i: cbsvk03jynz6ssql: BEGIN :1 := Login_SYS.Init_Odp_Session_(:2 , :3 , :4 , :5 , :6 , :7 , :8 , :9 , :10 , :11 , :12 , :13 , :14 , :15 , :16 ); END;We are wondering if the amount of executions that are made is reasonable. For example, this sql is executed three times when you open a simple form like System parameters.One execution is very fast, but since there are over 10 million executions during a working day the total time elapsed is between 3 and 4 hours.Anyone with knowledge about this?Can there be an overhead of executions?Regards,Björn

Hello,We are facing issue with Replication job while updating the data.In Customer → Address → Document Tax Information. We duplicate the Address Id and create a new one. Next we add one company (abc) , its Supply Country as * and Tax Id Number say 1234. And save the record , when we refresh the screen all other associated companies will appear and they will have Tax Id Number as 1234. This is done by a Replication job. This change will appear only when we insert data, first, in company abc. This is working as required. Whereas when we update the Tax Id Number 1234 to some other value say 5678 against company (abc) ,its Supply Country * . The job goes in error. The value 5678 should be updated for all the companies. Replication job is Enabled and checked for Insert and Update both. 

Hi,I would like to ask about translation options for business data (basic data / code lists) in IFS Cloud.These values cannot be translated using Translatable Text, as they are not UI labels but internal business data (for example data maintained in Maintenance → Basic Data, such as Incomplete Causes).Currently, there is no standard way to maintain translations for these values per language, and the only workaround is to store multiple languages directly in the description (e.g. using / or -), which is not ideal.As we have several such code lists in the system, I would like to ask whether there is any standard or recommended approach in IFS to translate business data values per user language.Any guidance or best practice would be highly appreciated.Thank you. 

My customer is using the Self-service Procurement and the Punch out functionality. The customer needs to do some extra stuff when each cart line is created. This is solved by a custom event which is posting a background job, which is running some logic doing the extra stuff.The above works fine when you add parts to the cart from the catalog. Each created cart line, creates a background job by the event. But, when using the Punch out, the background job ending upp in error: “FndUser does not exist”. Looking at the background job you can see that there is no user added inte “Fnd User”-field. To me this means that the session that creates the cart line (from the Punch out), and at the end also creating the background job by the event, is some other user. I don’t know the logic behind the Punch out-integration, but it seems like cart line is created by a “ghost” user, at least not normal Fnd users. Can anyone bring some light over the Punch out-integration and maybe explain “who” is actua

Hi,Can an attendance/overtime rule be configured so that overtime is calculated only after standard time has been reported against the employee's planned working day?Now in IFS I can book 2h standard time and 3h as overtime. Any idea is highly appreciated. 

Hi All,What is the best way in IFS Application to manage Overtime Pre-Approvals? The end employees in our environment should get the approval for the overtime from their line managers. Regards,MalinG

Hi,When modifying an Outside Operation in Routing, entering a new non-existing Outside Operation Item (OOI) no longer triggers the "Create Outside Operation Item" dialog. Instead, it throws an error.Work around solution as below:Temporarily change the Work Center from the Outside Operation Work Center to a different Work Center. Close the "Create Outside Operation Item", because the wrong center is selected. Change the Work Center back to the original Outside Operation Work Center. The "Create Outside Operation Item" dialog is then triggered. Continue editing and save the routing. However, this option was available in APPS10.Outside Op Item is modified and tried to save. Is there any straightforward method in cloud as well?A window will be popped up requesting to create a new Part Number.Once proceeded with selecting Yes, it will direct to another window where the user is able to create a new Part.After required data is given, the Outside Op Item will be available in the routing operat

Hi Guys,We were able to install the Kubernetes on the Linux box but receiving the below error when executing get the kube config file step.   Also I have attached the main script log file to understand more on which step it is getting this error.Mentioned error is not in the Main.ps1 file as well, I tried doing a search on the “Get-sftpFile” as well to troubleshoot on this, but no luck. I’m looking for a quick solution on this folks. Thanks in advance.
