I added an object to IFS and made a mistake by manually adding a base value per the User-Defined  Base Values Tab.  Later, I posted a manual entry (Q) to reclass the costs from the supplier invoice.  Now I am not able to Activate the asset - this is grayed out.  Any ideas on how to best correct this type of scenario?  

what's the GL impact of changing PO by adding - "additional Cost". Posting Proposal → PO → Reopen → lines → additional cost

Hello Community,I am trying to transfer a fixed asset from one company to another. But i am getting the following error while create transaction in transfer object-progress. Please solve and help the whole operation.The error comes when I do create transactions operation 

We have a company set-up with MXN currency - no parallel currency:We write supplier checks in both MXN & USD in separate batches, using Supplier Payment Proposal & Acknowledgment, then Create Payment Order & Create Check Payment.  Once the checks are written & get populated into the Supplier Check screen, they show up differently.  The USD checks are automatically showing in Cashed state & the MXN checks are showing as expected in Printed state. We don’t have this happening in any other company & would like to understand what setting would allow the Supplier Checks to automatically show in Cashed state upon printing.

Looking to upload CHAPS/Faster Payments etc from IFS into our bank using their import templates. Does IFS have standard/compatible output for these?  Or how can I get IFS to output files in desired layout to import to bank?

Hi When I export data from IFS transaction “GL balance analysis” to CSV, the amount on 1 of our GL accounts is empty (empty cell) in the download. If I check IFS, there is an amount on that GL account (as I expect). I have it only for 1 account but in different companies.IFS print screen: CSV/Excel dump print screen:  My colleagues do not have this issue.How is this possible? And how to solve? Thank you.

Some fixed assets need to be transferred from one company to another company. But it is not possible to transfer because the object ID is the same in two companies. Shows the following  error. How to solve it ?Advance thanks for solving the problem. 

 Hello, we are starting to work with IFS. And I need to acquire information about finance and accounting. If you have documentation on these subjects, could you please provide it to me? Screenshots would be very helpful as well. Thank you very much.

According to business requirements, it is asked to capture the code part “Product Modules” during the shop order repair process, encompassing repair costs, including the issuance of raw materials to the shop order or labour and operational costs. To address this, I have configured the posting control setup as follows, mandating pre-posting at the shop order level. During testing, it was observed that the system did not prevent the release of shop orders without pre-posting. Consequently, I manually inserted the pre posting value and proceeded. And financial transactions captured the code part.Question : Why system is not stopping or generating error if mandatory pre-posting is set? How can we capture a error for user stating “please enter Pre-posting”?Additionally, we also attempted an alternative approach by employing T50 pre-accounting Work Order. However, the pre-posting details from the Work Order were not flowing to the Shop Order. Please advise. Thanks,CA Garima S

Hi, I need to add a line into the Header of the SEPA file. it’s a constant, like company name. Please note SEPA is working fine - we just need to add a header line.We can’t figure it out.There is no “File Template ID” associated with it. Client Mapping is only columns. I’m stumped. Obviously, there’s a place where this information is added to the file, but where or how?Thanks!    

For some reason someone has entered Tax ID Types with no definitions for some European companies.This causes a minor but annoying error in that Tax ID Type is mandatory when entering Tax ID No against customers and suppliers from these countries.The list is global so it has effect on all companies in the database. Very annoying as small issues can be.Is there any way to change the set-up so that Tax ID Type is no longer necessary for these European countries? 

Dear Colleagues.I’d like to gather your opinions how to solve the below issue:My company uses inventory and non-inventory parts to buy certain products. Sometimes we face the situation that the delivered and consumed material is invoiced (matched) and paid, but after some time (even 6 months) we receive correction invoices. How to deal with such situation to correctly update the delivery quantities, cost and warehouse weighted average/unit cost??I suggest using Return option, but it does not affect Invoice anyhow. We cannot match the Correction Invoice with any transactions for this return, because there is none. Doing it manually is wrong.Any ideas will be precious. Thank you 

Hello, I have a question regarding the external file used for bank statement import. The bank in my case uses symbols and letter for the last caracter of the amount. Is it a known case for IFS ? Is there a way to replace the symbol or letter value with a number ? We have a mapping table for those caracters Best regards. 

Can some tell me the basic data set up required for WIRE payments ?

Hello,I am wondering if anyone has streamlined the manual entry of supplier invoices (non-PO) using an import function to reduce the time spent entering multiple supplier invoices individually? For reference on what it is I am trying to do, we use an external software for employee expenses, some are reimbursable so would be paid out to them, that are “coded” to an account, department, and (optional) type. Once we have determined where the expense(s) need to be coded, they are then manually entered into IFS individually. I am wondering if it is possible to dump a spreadsheet with the supplier ID, coding, and amount to speed up the process?*Do note there are oftentimes multiple lines per one invoice and also there are subscriptions that would need to be period allocated.Thank you for any and all advice and help!

Hi all.IFS 9: How is it possible that, if I have the trasaction code SOMACHOHV+ (Positive variance of Machine OH), the posting control triggered was M131 (Negative Variance of Machine OH)?  Of course the standar configuration is correct:  

for the PODIRSH records, I only can saw Receipt with Purchase Order with Credit amount and Cost of Goods Sold, Sales with Debit amount.for Receipt with Purchase Order finace account, it have to have another finance account to transfer. it can not increase by itselfI thought most probably there were inventory cost with credit amount and Receipt with Purchase Order with  Debit amount. does any one can inform me where I can see it?

We try to understand the GP13 transactions that sometimes occur when we run the revenue recognition. In all our projects, we book the costs directly and calculate recognized revenue. From what I've read, GP13 is only used when calculating recognized costs (which we don't do).It seems that these transactions occur when a project goes from positive to negative profit margin but I can't see any logic in the amount that the GP13 transaction gives us.It happens that we run the revenue recognition several times after adjusting revenue/cost estimates. Is this a bug or is there a good reason for these transactions?

We have the company parameter ‘ Inherit Authorizer(s) from purchase’ checked ( Company > Invoice Tab > Supplier Invoice Workflow tab).When I create a manual supplier invoice and match to a PO it does bring up the authorizer from the PO across to the posting proposal. However, I have noticed if the invoice comes through the OCR ( we are using ABBY) the authorizer does not come across and we always have to manually add the authorizer.Could this be caused by a setup that we are missing ?

Hi, is there anyone out there who knows if it is possible to group combinations of account and code_b in IFS Cloud ? For example, Code_B = xxx or YYY and Account = 3000..3100 as FabricResult etc.  Best regardsJonas

In IFS 10 Aurena navigation Accounting Rules > User Related Data > User Groups per Period > User Groups per Period, there is an option to select multiple companies and click on Close Period button. However, in RACE database, I am unable to close periods for multiple companies with single click but ca do the same for individual companies. Also, I can’t find any online documentation/Page help for the same as well. We are currently using IFS 9 and planning to upgrade to IFS 10 in 2021. We have about 35 companies in our current environment and the Finance team is looking for an option to close period for All/multiple companies with a single click and be able to see any exceptions/errors for all selected companies. Kindly point me to the relevant documentation for IFS 10 so I can explore the available options. Thanks. Accounting Rules User Related Data User Groups per Period User Groups per Period

Is there any way (without a modification) to stop the ‘Arrival Date’ on the Manual Supplier Invoice having a default (sysdate) value? i.e. goal is to make it a mandatory field with no value, to ensure Accounts always enter a value. Apps9 Upd16
