Hi,We have a custom enumeration that’s been updatable but now also needs to be insertable; it seems like every other DB option is editable except for insertable. Are we stuck now that this was already created? I tried disapproving/unpublishing, no luck.

Hi, We are on IFS Apps 10 UPD26 and will plan to update to 30, 31 or 32. Could you please provide when these updates are expected to be released? Is it ok to stay on UPD26 if we do not have anything that needs to be fixed?

I am trying to run a migration job to the customer credit limit table. I am using the excel add-in tool. We have to update some customer credit limits in bulk. The problem is the job keeps telling me that I am trying to update the PARTY_TYPE and that I’m not allowed to. I do not care to modify the party type, as it should remain Customer. I have tried to modify the migration job by eliminating the source code (column) for Party_Type and/or Party_TypeDB, and set up defaults as “CUSTOMER’ and ‘Customer’ and all possible combinations of such. No matter what, the system is convinced I am trying to “update” the party type, when all I want to do is update credit limits. Any advice or resources? This is for IFS Cloud 24R1. I was pointed to IFS Apps 10 - IFS Data Migration Excel Add-in Overview and Demo | GoToStage.com and Excel Migration - Technical Documentation For IFS Cloud for resources, but these have not been able to assist me with this particular issue. Thank you!

Hi All, Previously Peter Sketch was the Boom iISV partner and was able to help with a lot of questions related to Boomi IFS connector. I see he has retired now. Does anyone know who the new Boomi IFS partner contact is?

In IFS Cloud, we have serialized subcomponents set to Manual Issue so that the manufacturing team can issue the components as they are installed on the assembly. The challenge is that sometimes the team under-issues the required quantity, since Manual Issue allows the shop order to progress without fully issuing the required qty.Is there a standard setting or configuration in IFS Cloud that would prevent under-issuing, so that the team must issue the full required quantity before closing (or finishing) the shop order — while still keeping Manual Issue as the issue method?

Hi, We have a request from our business which we were unable to find a solution. We are using IFS Apps10 service and maintenance and have a need to invoice before all costs are recorded. Being fixed price work, the costs are not applicable for the invoice. However, once we invoice the WO moved to Historical and we are unable to record costs to these. Any other customers that have the same need and how are you doing it? 

Hi IFS community,I am using IFS Cloud to setup Rotable Part Pool and have setup the Posting Control of M151(according to IFS documentation), of which to set Account and Fixed Asset Code Part to use AC2 - Pre Posting. So far so good, since Fixed Asset is created with Part Connection Established. However, the Inventory Transaction History displayed the usage of M139 instead of M151 and the Code Part Demand of account 028200 has Fixed Asset as Mandatory.Can you help me out to solve this riddle, please? Many thanks!

When a manual supplier invoice has a different amount from the PO, we currently enter a manual line on the invoice for the difference.  Is there a way to automatically make the difference between the PO and the Supplier Invoice automatically create a line?  If so, how could I set that up?

The baseline functionality of the "Expand Forward" field in the PM Action screen calculates the 'Latest Finish' date based on the combination of the "Expand Forward" and "Due Date" fields. In my case, I need to exclude weekends from the "Latest Finish" date, but when generating the maintenance plan, the weekends are still being included, which is how the baseline functionality works. Is there any way to modify this or exclude weekends from the "Latest Finish" calculation? Adding Basic calendar to the PM action setting expand forward days Latest finish including weekends

I get this error when I switch between list and table view. How can I fix it?"  

We have recently upgraded to a version of PSO, 6.14, that uses the Restful Gateway instead of SOAP. In our prior set-up, 4x I/O or Services servers, we only had the Travel Analyser installed on one of the four I/O servers. However, it’s highly memory intensive on the single server and we would like to distribute the load if possible. So my question is - Can the Travel Analyser be installed on multiple I/O servers?Thanks in advanceOwen

Does ETM/IPaaS support mTLS authentication? The context for this question is the creation of an ETM HTTP source channel and/or HTTP Request Mappers that we wish to authenticate to a suppliers kafka REST proxy. This proxy has a preferred authentication scheme of utilizing mTLS to securely authorize our supplier to our network, and vice versa. The use of passwords is possible, but is less secure and triggers higher levels of scrutiny during risk assessment, and is thus as a general rule not a preferred method.I can only find information about the use of certificates for OAuth, and its lack of inclusion under Authentication would hint at mTLS not being supported. I’m however asking in case there’s something I’ve missed or misunderstood in the possibilities presented in the other options.Thank you very much for your time,Richard

When attempting to delete a supplier with an existing object connection to an approval routing, the associated approval line remains in the system. Consequently, users cannot delete the workflow through the Approvals window. Steps to Recreate the Issue:01. Navigate to Object Connections and add an approval routing for 'SupplierInfoGeneral' Logical Unit. Go to the Supplier window, create a new supplier, and add a new approval setup. [Note: A new approval line will be created automatically.]02. Delete the newly created supplier.03. Navigate to the Approvals Window and approval line is still available. Can anyone please assist in finding the reason for this?

Hello, We want to set up authorization for the Business Opportunity. We want employees to have to get permission from a supervisor to create a Sales Contract from the Opportunity. This could be done, for example, by ensuring that the status of the Opportunity can only be changed after authorization from the supervisor. I have been working with ‘Sales Process’ and the Approval feature it contains. But I can't find what I'm looking for there.Can anyone advise me on this and suggest a solution? We are working in App10 Update 7.

Hi all,We are using IFS Cloud mainly for Maintenance, and I’m curious about how others are handling Asset Criticality and Work Task Priority. Do you keep them completely separate, or have you built any kind of automation where they are connected? Are there any best practices on how to align these two values? Or do you mainly use asset criticality as more of a “flag” rather than something that drives task/work order priority? I’d really appreciate hearing how different companies are using this in practice. Any lessons learned or tips would be great!

Hi all, Quick question regarding changes to the base salary. In previous IFS versions (Apps 9 for example) it was possible to change the base salary using an amount or a percentage. In Cloud the percentage option is no longer available on the compensation page. It is only available for compensation types other than the base salary and is then calculated off the base salary.The only other option to increase the base salary using a percentage is by using the Salary Planning Review functionality. Some of my customers do not want to use this though (for various reasons).How is everyone handling this now? Are you using the new functionality or are you customising this?

BR Reports refuse to be rendered as a PDF although these settings were done:  There was an issue with PDFs which should have been resolved by BR version 23.2.0 (EIZBR-2617), but I am using version 24.1.1 in this case and still I am getting would-be PDFs as ordinary Excel workbooks.

I defined an operational subcontract for production and linked the work order to the project. When I send the intermediate inventory to the subcontractor, a purchase requisition is created. The relevant requisition line appears to be linked to the project, but it is not linked to the project in preprocessing. The project value is mandatory for the relevant account in the company's accounting settings. Therefore, I receive an error when entering the order on the manual supplier invoice screen. Why doesn't the link appear in preprocessing for purchasing even though I linked the project to the work order? I request your assistance.
