My company is new to IFS Cloud. We are working on our Chart of Accounts...ideally we would like to keep the Chart of Accounts we currently have user for the past few decades and not redo it, basically for easier reporting and history. We are being told we should not and I am looking for opinions and to see if others have kept their COA when making the switch or just changed them sparingly.Please advise

 Dear Community,I start to set up Tax ID Types for European Member countries. Target is to set up the Tax ID Layout Format so that IFS can validate Tax ID structure when we set up Tax IDs for customers. For the most countries Formats are easy e.g. for Denmark ID should start with DK and should have 8 characters, so set up layout is DKXXXXXXXX.Unfortunately, not all countries have simple rules, how layout format should be set up …If countries have different length e.g. like Bulgaria 9 or 10 characters?  If one character has to be a letter e.g. Cyprus, last character must be a letter France, 11 characters May include alphabetical characters Ireland, 8 or 9 characters Includes one or two alphabetical characters (last, or second and last, or last 2) Spain, 9 characters Includes 1 or 2 al

Hi Team, After migration from old sistem to IFS10, when we try to match invoice with PO, this error appears. Then, when we changed code parts demands, and book invoices with this error, the new PO GRNs created in IFS10 had the first set up of code parts demands, and we get the same error… It seems that whenever we ask for code part chages new GRN are stuck in matching with invoice. Please advice for the best solutionThx

Cash account balances can be seen in the Cash Flow exposure details  However, not included in the cashflow forecast details.

Hi All, I am experiencing a strange problem in Expense sheet and in the E voucher created in relation to that. The company’s Accounting currency is EUR and it doesn't have a parallel currency. The expense is entered in SEK which has a currency rate of 10.84. Therefore when an expense is entered for 100 SEK and paid in EUR the equivalent amount in Pay currency is 9.22 (EUR) which is correct.  However the domestic amount which should also be in EUR has a different amount (1,084.21)  As you can see the value entered in SEK has reverse calculated the amount for EUR.  Had anyone experienced this? Kind Regards,Antony

Hello, We have a small issue with historic authorized expense sheets showing when our finance team are searching for authorized expenses to pay. These expenses have been settled many years ago but they keep pulling through. Any suggestions how I can remedy this? ThanksBob  

hi,we are facing an issue when we try to credit a MCPR project invoicei got an error message about the employee number : the error message said ==> the field “EMP_NO” is mandatory for project transaction and value is required.any idea to solve it?the reason why I need to cancel/credit the project invoice is because when the project invoice has been sent, IFS created the supplier invoice accordingly and posted it but the user cancel this supplier invoice. And now, when I am resending the project invoice, the supplier invoice is created but the matching with the project transactions cannot be done anymore... thanks & regards, 

Our customer is seeking community experts’ opinion on below;For assigning rules where a specific set of suppliers are to be used to trigger the rule, it is being overridden with a different priority rule. We have observed the correct rule is applied in the authorize tab of the posting proposal temporarily but when we click back to lines and postings and back to the authorise tab the rule has changed. We have had our 3rd party support team confirm that the event IMI_NON_PO_INV_AUTH is preventing this.What we ask is what is the impact of disabling this event? when we disable this event, the rules are applied correctly however, we do not know if this event affects any other areas of IFS. If you can confirm there is no harm in disabling this event, then we will do this in our live system.

Hi All,I'm receiving below error when I run the "Payment in Full” process. When I investigate this further, I found that employee 2020054 is already terminated on 10/20/2022 and that employee has unpaid expense sheet on 10/14/2022. What are the alternatives I have to fix this issue?  Regards,MalinG

Is there any Mixed payment templates or pre-population of fields in that transaction? Looking at ways of making sure specific bank transactions are coded correctly out with having an external note of correct coding  

Hi ,can someone please suggest a solution to the below error,thanks in advance.

Hey peopleThe behaviour of the Guest List Mandatory seems only to prevent vouchers being created. Can we change it so it doesn’t allow users to confirm expense sheet without having guest list information. Also how do I get the Guests Count field to show CheersGT

Hi all! I’m new to the IFS community. My company is currently going through an implementation and we’re working through some uplift development work being done by IFS to better support as a government contractor. Specifically how to layer burden costs, retro burdening of costs when our indirect rate pools change, how to monitor actual rates from our target or provisional rates, how to bill on government contracts. This also includes how revenue works through this for various contract types - FFP, CPFF, T&M. We are project based and have several requirements to be considered compliant from a DCAA accounting system perspective. I’m wanting to connect to other government contractors who currently use IFS to discuss best practices you have worked through to help manage, bill, and report on your project costs. Please feel free to send me a message if you would like to connect. I would love to hear about your experiences and lessons learned as we work through our impleme

Hello, In the supplier invoice there is a filed called “Automatic Payment Authorization”. When an invoice is created this field has the same value has the same field in the the Supplier → Invoice → General tab. The description of the “Automatic Payment Authorization” field in the supplier invoice indicates “...the suggested authorization level for individual invoices can be changed manually.” But I did not succeed to change the value of this field. This field takes always the same value as same field in the Supplier → Invoice → General tab. Any idea how to update the “Automatic Payment Authorization” field in the supplier invoice ? Thank you
