I am trying to add a multiselect in the dropdown filters in IFS Lobby, is it feasible?I tried using a text field but it didn’t worked.thanks in advance
Hi IFS Community,with the 25R1 release, the Selection Rules functionality was extended (e.g. rule types and weighting), which is a very welcome improvement. However, the current solution leaves some gaps and we are unclear if these are supposed to be filled in future releases.Our Use Case We use Selection Rules to distribute Service Requests into the correct delivery units. For our setup, Region and Model criteria are essential. The Service criteria, however, is largely irrelevant, as the organizational structure is the same for most services.Current LimitationAt the moment, the Service criteria is mandatory, which forces us to duplicate the entire Selection Rule set for each service (≈ 50 services) leading to a huge data volume in the table and the maintenance effort coming with it.Observation in the UI / Page DesignerIn both the UI and the Page Designer, it appears that:Criteria might be configurable as mandatory vs. optional Criteria might support individual weightingThese settings
Hi Experts,We have one Resoruce with following Travel Hours setup. There is one activity where 2hr 40 min away but PSO still fails to assign the job with the following explanation. Can you explain why it considers Max Travel to value with is 2.5hr instaed max Travel time 4 hr? Thanks,KM
Hi Team,Any idea, how to add any external url in PSO Activities Detail Screen and Resourc Details Screen?Currently by default in the External Link section we have Request Work Task- Scheduling and Allocation. Similarly can we add any custom Url (outside IFS) under this section?I can see in Dataset there is Custom Url section. Can we use this tab? Regards,Rashmi Ranjan Patnaik
Hi, We have an issue where by if we update an attachment (i.e. update the actual physical file, a .pdf in our case) then there seems to be no way to sync that back to the mobile device. Even reinitialising the app does not work (it appears to download all the files again, but the old one seems to persist). Is there anyway to fix this without creating another version of the attachment? or reinstalling the app? Regards,Martin
Hi Experts,We have a specific requirements from customer. Does anyone faces such situation, your guidance is highly appreciated.Customer has an Appointment Window for 6 months in current legacy system. So they want the from IFS too. But as per IFS that long window is not allowed. Do you have any best practices for the Appointment Scheduling window. I have experience of having 42 days Scheduling window (3 days Dynamic Work Days + 39 Appointment Work Days) but not working with 6 months window. If IFS doesn’t handle such long window any workaround to handle 6 months appointment booking window.Your timely suggestion will help me a lot. Regards,RR
Hi all, How do I Identify within the fsm app, the mobile record of a person? If a person has 2 mobile records in the person_mobile table. How can I know which phone the person is using in the FSM mobile app.I’m looking for a way to identify if the app is online or offline, like on the sync page where you have a green dot or a red dot. One way I’m thinking off is to use the last sync date.Regards,
Hi all,Does anyone knows how to hide a specific attachment in the attachment list in FSM mobile?As far I know you can’t remove lines with the ListData function? Only edit some values.Regards
Hi all, I created a custom screen for the 'TASK_ATTACHMENT' table, as well as for the 'ATTACHMENT' table. I added an 'ATTACHMENT' column and selected a user-defined field (user_def_num1). The idea is to link it to a specific attachment ID. However, I can’t get it to work. It won't find the attachment. Has anyone created something similar before?
Hi, My customer is experiencing this problem where in the my work l → Assignment details, they are seeing Pickup task information instead of Request task information.This is how the UI used to be Now they are seeing pickup task information.Any idea how this can be resolved?checked in MAUI app and classic app both.
In Presales Support Services, we created a Proof of Concept for a new report: Service Report for Request Work Task, similar to the report generated from MWO (Mobile Work Order).Attachments:Ready-to-install solution Example report output Thanks to @gisagb for the idea and key contribution.

Our customer has a situation where engineers are unable to complete work tasks for various reasons, hence puts the task to incomplete with incomplete reason. Based on incomplete reason we would need a revisit on the same task and hence a new assignment is needed.If we do it from Mobile we have two options,Assign to me (which asks for preferred date and time) Needs to be plannedIdeally the requirement is let PSO decide when can it be replanned for based on the SLA. However problem here is, if we give the option of Needs to be planned, it creates a the new allocation but goes to unallocated as it becomes a co-requisite of the previous assignment (one which was incompleted) and thus cannot be scheduled by PSO anymore and also it will never go to the same technician even if technician has the available. And if we give assign to me, we need to give the preferred date and time and it goes to accepted status directly which is completely wrong.I’m looking for suggestions or best practices on

Hi All,Facing an issue with allocation/commitment, activity was committed at 4 AM but resource shift will start 08AM and end at 4 PM for entire week but how activity got allocated at early Moring before shift time . ex: SLA of the activity was 09/09/2026-11:54 PM end SLA- 06/10/2026-12 PM when i see in PSO task was committed at 4 AM today (06/10/26) actually without shift timings PSO should not allocate and commit but how this was committed? we defined commit rules and Time Before Shift Start to 4 hrs. will pso allow to commit task before shift time due to time before shift value? can please suggest how we can stop allocation/commitment before shift time?
We are having an issue with a service request invoicing. The issue occurs when we issue the material line, then unissue the material line as the component was not needed nor used.On material issue a sales line is created.On material unissue the sales line is not removed, a negative sales line is added.The issue is at time of invoicing, the system is attempting to invoice a $0 amount and stopping the process from moving forward. Wondering if we are missing something obvious, or if this is a bug? Screenshots below
Hello, Is it correct that nothing appears if I click on ‘Travel Details’? Is there some parameter to be set?In addition: Using Google Maps distance between activity is: I’m using HTM, but I think something is wrong. Could someone Help Me?
How can one configure scheduled service contract batch job to process only today’s invoices — without including past ones — and without customizing the code?The current parameter processes both current and past invoices.Thank you in advance
Good morning, The technicians' shifts are generally 5/7 from 7 am to 5 pm.However, every week, some technicians have a shift composed of standard shift + on-call-On-call: (from 00.00 to 7.00) + (from 17.00 to 00.00) (Monday/Friday)-On- call: Saturday and Sunday: on-call (00.00 to 00.00).Shifts must be split up and separated from standard shifts, while during on-call hours tasks can only be assigned manually. (MANUAL_SCHEDULING_ONLY)How can I manage this in PSO, as I have visibility of the shifts in DC/PSO? My understanding is that the on-call=yes function does not allow me to do this and I thought I could handle this by creating shift deviations. Doing this for each resource once a week seems very time-consuming and not very smart.Is there a better and faster way? Is it a correct way?
I have created a Service Request and trying to process where material will be delivered direct to the WO/customer site, direct from the supplier.I have an address on the task and can set the Supply code to “Purchase Order” , but I cannot se in either the work Task or Material Request a field “Delivery Method” or any other field with “Delivery” in it to tell the PO to send direct to the customer.I have looked at this and various other link to no avail.https://docs.ifs.com/ifsclouddocs/25r2/lang/en/RequestManagement/AboutMaterialPreparation.htm
Issue Description:In our organization's PSO environment, we have a large amount of technicians with diverse shift types, where each engineer may have their unique shift pattern. Due to the dynamic nature of schedules, frequent modifications or creation of new shifts lead to operational challenges.Current Challenge:The issue arises when we need to adjust an individual's shift without altering the entire template. For instance, we may need to change an engineer's Wednesday shift for a single day to a different Category and apply a specific Rule Collection for that specific day. However, we observe limitations in applying a single-day shift change within the Advance Resource Planner.Query:Is it possible to modify an individual's shift within the PSO Workbench to change the Shift Category and incorporate a Rule Collection for a distinct day, without applying a template for that day's shift? While we understand the feasibility of accomplishing this through API integration, we are seeking gu
Want to understand when we will see the next “Due Next” Date in the RSP overview. We have completed the request tied to 5/28/2026, and expect the next due next date in the overview to be 10/1/2026. In the overview for RSPs the Due Next date appears as 5/28/2026 even though the request is close.When will 10/1/2026 appear as the next due next date? Please advise.Thank you,Ed

Below are the details:Surveys Involved: 857 — Installation data capture with initial pictures 858 — Contains the “More Equipment?” question after picture capture 316 — Additional picture capture survey triggered when required Issue Description:As per the expected behavior: The system should allow the user to capture 4 pictures in Survey 857 Then prompt the user via Survey 858 asking if they want to capture 4 more pictures If the user selects Yes, Survey 316 should start for the next set of 4 pictures If the user selects No, the survey should end Current Observed Behavior:We have configured the Next Survey field in the answer options as follows: For the ‘Yes’ option, we have added Survey 316 in the Next Survey field. For the ‘No’ option, we have kept the Next Survey field blank. However, while testing the survey on the mobile app, we ob
