Dear All,We would like to raise a request regarding the copy/paste functionality for posting lines in Posting Proposals.Starting from version 24R2, the copy/paste functionality was disabled by IFS on transactional pages in order to prevent potential data inconsistencies when copying and pasting data within these screens.Initially, IFS communicated that a possible reintroduction of this functionality was planned for future product enhancement, without any confirmed delivery timeline.More recently, IFS development team confirmed that a fix has been implemented specifically for posting lines in Posting Proposals, and that this functionality will be available again starting from version 26R1. It just took us 3 months + to upgrade from 23R2 to 25R2.We went live on 25R2 3 weeks ago.CVE and our accountant key-users cannot afford to start a new Release Update process with 26R1 to get this functionality back.This functionality that was existing in 23R2 and now missing in 25R2 is critically need

How can we avoid the negative impact of unrealistic customer forecasts while still keeping those records in the system?For example, if the forecast includes unrealistic quantities within the lead time that are impossible to fulfill, I still need to upload the forecast to maintain historical records, compare forecast accuracy, and support future evaluations. However, I would like to avoid negative impacts on supply chain activities, material planning, and production planning. Ajith

HalloCan somebody help me.We have purchase orders from one site to another (two different companies) and everything is set up for intercompany but if I release a purchase order without having a customer order it does not transfer the order via intercompany. The demand code is “inventory order” and I can not change that. If I start with a customer order everything works perfect. But if I order parts into stock it doesn’t open up an order on the supplier site :-(. Does anybody has an idea what is missing? Thanks for your help.Judith

Hi reader,IFS V Cloud 24.9I have a lobby element that correctly displays a count of the two records found, which is correct based on my parameters.But I am unable to navigate to the Opportunities page via the navigation as i get an error.If i remove this one line of code from the where clause in the Datasource, so that all other parameters defined are used - then the navigation to opportunities works without error....AND (CLOSURE_DATE >= NVL($DATE_FROM$, SYSDATE) AND CLOSURE_DATE <= NVL($DATE_TO$, SYSDATE))... Yes, i have also used the Between syntax as well and the tile result count is still correct in the datasource as shown above - so it does not seem to matter. But when I put this line of code back into the where clause of the data element I get an error again on the navigation…Error details: [{"code":1861,"message":"ORA-01861: literal does not match format string"}] I have tried passing the dates as filter in the url address, as well as many other permutations to the point w

I am using IFS Report Designer version 200.3.0004. I cannot put a block container in the flow section to restrict height, and I cannot put the table in the header or footer sections as the check itself needs to go below the flow section. I need the table to be the exact same height for every check in order to align properly when printing, and tables with multiple invoice lines end up having more space than the checks with only 1 line.  

Hi, How to activate Sales campaign? The button “activate” is not available. Thanks

Hello,I am currently creating home pages (lobbies) for different departments.One department wants to monitor NCR Correction Actions, filtered by severity_id and next_to_act.Target page for the link: page/NonConformance/CorrectionActionFormIn the page search, both severity_id and next_to_act are available.next_to_act belongs to the view used by the page projection.severity_id, however, comes from a selector, so from another data source.Client-side filtering? Strange, but apparently that's how it works.As a workaround, I added a read-only severity_id field into the projection view (NCR_CORRECTION_ACTION_CFV).It is slow and clearly not optimal, but it is the only solution I found for now (I cannot spend 16 hours on this topic, I still have delivery objectives to meet).As you can see in the screenshot, it works correctly on the DB side.However, in the Datasource Designer preview, it does not work, despite using the exact same filtering criteria.  The query executed from the page through th

I added translations in translatable text section, refreshed server cache, client cache, language cache, the translation won’t display.It worked before, I don’t know what's wrong.I try to display the correct translation for the selected line (the path confirms it’s on the page I want to see changes) : Here is translations :Here you can see page’s missing translation : Here aurena page designer confirms I translated the good section : Here is the custom attribute definition on aurena page designer : Any idea what I did wrong ?

Hi,i’m experimenting with creating bundle tasks and following the instructions in 24R2 NGSM Demystified document and not seeing the same screen options available.From a work task search, I selected the ‘Bundle’ option to create. All tasks are at new status and a bundle task number was created (see image) However, the screen screenshot in the set up guide is labelled Request Bundle Task and has a screen option including Handling information which is completely missing in the view I have.We would like to use this functionality but I’m not getting very far. We are on version 24R2.16 and moving to 25R2 in a few months.Any help would be appreciated.

We are about to begin our implementation journey to IFS Cloud. Does anyone know where I can find IFS’ detailed documentation methodology (phases, detailed definitions...)?

Hi Community, I have a question regarding radio buttons that are automatically filled with a default value. Is it possible to change this so that no option is selected by default? For example, I would prefer that neither option (remove/keep) is preselected, so that the end user is required to make a decision before being able to press OK. At the moment, the user can immediately press OK, and there is no way to undo the action afterward, since remove is automatically selected when opening the assistant.

Hello,We have a requirement to create two separate permission sets in IFS Cloud 25R1 for Functional Objects.One permission set should allow users to create and modify Functional Objects without delete access, while another permission set should allow users to view and modify existing Functional Objects without create or delete access.During our analysis, we observed that in Entity Action Grants, the CRUD permissions appear to be bundled together (Create, Update, Delete). Because of this, it seems that Create/Delete and Update/Delete access cannot be separated individually.Could you please suggest if there is any recommended approach or best practice to achieve this requirement?

I am working with IFS Report Rules (Sign PDF action) and need to apply a digital signature on the last page of a report where the page count is dynamic. I tried using options like “LAST” and “-1” for page selection along with correct coordinates, but the signature only works when a fixed page number is provided. It seems that Report Layout handles pagination while Report Rules run after PDF generation, and the Sign PDF action does not support dynamic page targeting. I would like to know if there is a supported way, best practice, or workaround to always place the signature on the final page without hardcoding page numbers. 

We have a workflow that sends e-mails following  PR Authorization. The workflow creates the e-mail in a HTML format. However, our default mail sender is configured to send mail as plain text. So when the mails are sent, they don’t look good.When you have a custom event action, you can specify what sender you want to use: However, from a workflow… I’m not clear how you specify the sender: Any input appreciated.Thanks

Hi all, when having one Request with multiple Request Scopes, it is only possible in the Cost and Sales view to display one Request Scope at a time. Even if more than one Scope is selected, only the first one selected is displayed in the Sales and Cost Lines. This makes it very cumbersome to create an invoice, as all individual sales lines need to be included/excluded and the Cost Lines need to be approved. In the Work Task Sales and Work Task Transactions this can be done in one go (more or less).Is there a way to do that, implement it in the Request - Cost and Sales view?
