In IFS APPS10, I have a need to restrict the number of characters that can be entered and saved into a specific field.  It is in Manual Supplier Invoice screen → PO Ref field.  I am aware that an IFS Event Action can prevent an action such as this and return an error message to the user.  Can anyone provide the Online SQL code for this?  Also, please advise as to returning a “soft error message” which would be returned to the user but not prevent the user from saving their record. Thank you in advance, Dave

Hi Community,There are two issues with regards to project credit invoice.Issue 1A new project transaction line is entered copying an existing project transaction line. This is entered as a positive entry so that the negative and positive entry is set off in the project credit invoice.Please see below screenshot. The green highlighted line needs to be set off against the blue highlighted line. However, this does not happen.Does it have anything to do with the transaction source? The green being a credit invoice and blue being project?  Issue 2When a project credit invoice is created, some of the project transaction lines attached to a project credit invoice line are removed. For example, if there are 5 project transaction lines attached to a project credit invoice line, 4 lines are removed from the invoice keeping 1 line attached to the project credit invoice line.Bur, when project transaction lines are removed from the invoice, it deletes the entire credit invoice line. Please see belo

Hi .We have added some investments to objects that was already active and included in the depreciations each month.After a while we noticed that the depreciations are not working anymore for those objects. We have now activated the new investments (add investment). But now when we try to do the depreciation we get an error message saying:This is because there are depreciations that should have been done in 2021 and 2022.How do we solve this problem? We want the “catching up” of depreciations to be done in 2023.

Hi,Does anyone have information on how our CAMT solution will behave in handling batch of payments? That is when bank batch all our low value transactions to one line? In this case bank will create their End-to-End ID based on the payment information ID we send in our ISO files. Does it pick the payment order from this payment information ID? How payment order acknowledgement should be done in this case?Also, how will it handle the returns? If both generate the same family code, and if the differentiating factor is sub-family code?   Best Regards,Sanusha.

Has anyone been able to set up the intersite profitability between 2 companies?  The documentation only mentions this is available between 2 sites within the same company but we have a need to use this across companies.

For quite some time now we have been struggling to get the ISO20022  pain.001.001.03 file to transfer Plusgiro payments for us. Danske Bank has told us not to use the combination SESBA and 9600, but to leave these both fields blank. It all sounds simple enough but we just don’t seem to get it right anyway. Any clues?

Hello all,We use an external programme to manage employee expenses and we wish to upload the expenses as external supplier invoices to IFS to manage payment and accounting. The problem is that these invoices will not have POs to match to in IFS and therefore the posting proposals can’t be posted to the GL as they are unbalanced. We are able to get around this by manually adding a line to the posting proposal to in order to balance, however, with the amount of expenses (supplier invoices) we process this will be very time consuming.Is there a way to process external invoices with no PO’s to match to or a way to automate the inclusion of a balancing line on the posting proposal? The invoices can be automatically authorized and posted in IFS as they are already manually authorized in the external programme.Thanks in advance!

Hello! We are having an issue with a purchase requisition that has pulled through the wrong purchase authorisation rule. We have seen this before where there was an issue with the purchase group however for this purchase requisition there is no purchase group on the PR line. I’m unsure if this is relevant as well but the issues we had previously were with “no part” PRs and this issue has arisen from a “parts” PR. I have tried to recreate this to see if it was a fluke error however every time I try to replicate the PR, it still pulls the wrong rule through. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated Thanks!

Hi IFS community, We have a situation on our end, For a specific supplier a PO was created, we received the invoice after the service had been provided to us and we registered it in Manual supplier invoice without entering the PO number in PO reference. We received the PO through register purchase order arrivals and the PO to closed. However, now we noticed that the costs have duplicated in IFS which is not great. Please is there a method to reverse the duplicate costs? Thank you in advance.

Hi all, I have a question regarding the inventory closure for month-end period. As soon as the period is closed (user group NON AC), I would like to freeze my inventory. It means that the new receptions won’t be able to impact my inventory value for the previous period.I launched the “Aggregate Inventory Transactions per Period” then i tried to receive a PO in March and i had this error message (which is a good news)Can anyone explain me what are the transactions that are blocked ? When should i generate that routine ? Is it related ? Is it possible to close the inventory value statistic period 1 day before the actual month end ? If you have any documentation or best practices, i am happy to hear it ?Thanks a lot, Tarek

Hi I am extracting data to PowerBI.I want to extract cost of sales and revenue for all customer order shipments.I want to combine shipment & order line data with GL voucher data (account, sales group) We are on Apps 9.I can’t figure out the links to do this.I want to start from closed/completed shipment lines.  COST OF SALES:SHIPMENT_ORDER_LINE_OVW → links to → SHIPMENT, CUSTOMER_ORDER_LINE & CUSTOMER_ORDER using shipment_id, order_no, line_no, rel_no & line_item_no. Easy!INVENTORY_TRANSACTION_HIST2 → links to → MPCCOM_ACCOUNTING → links to → vouchers & voucher rows on accounting_id. Easy!But what is the link from shipment lines to inv trans hist? INVENTORY_TRANSACTION_HIST2 has fields SOURCE_REF1,2,3,4 & 5.1,2,3&4 are clearly Customer Order, Line, Rel, Lini Item (for SOURCE_REF_TYPE = Customer Order)What is SOURCE_REF5… Help says its delivery reference… so I think it is the key to link back to shipment line…. but cant find where it links to.
