Finance (Financials)

Hello...is there an easy way to migrate the “Accounting Structure” hierarchy across environments?  I asked the finance guys to do the setup in TEST environment and once finalized, then we can move it into PROD - but how???  This is a multi-level hierarchy so I don’t think a simple COPY/PASTE Object will do the trick.  Do I need to tell them it needs to be manually duplicated into PROD?  Or maybe we should just use Code Part Attributes and Attribute Connections (seems like it does the same thing anyway).  Thoughts??? (It looks like the COPY feature works across companies in the same environment...so that is something!) Tom Bowe

Hi I am trying to manually adjust an asset depreciation value in the month as the set up was not done properly at acquisition years ago, now system automatically calculated previous year/period dep, but it won’t allow me to post in previous financial year which I wouldn’t want to. Is there a way to delete the lines in the proposal?  Thanks 

Hi,We are having a problem with some supplier. Some off them are not receiving our automatique payment confirmation by email. I doubled check to validate and It seems that all configurations are correct. I try using my email and nothing happens. Anybody know how these confirmations are send? I tried do look all code and I couldn’t find how this process is triggered. Thanks

Is it possible to have payment terms that are due on a specific day of the week? For example W have a customer who will always pay on a Monday, but sometimes invoices are showing as overdue for 5-6 days - this is more of an issue at Month End.  Can we set up a payment term that will mean the invoice will be due on the Monday after 18 days for example?

I need to enter an invoice to pay a vendor principal plus interest.  The vendor is set up in IFS to receive a 1099 at YE.  How do I enter the invoice so only the interest will populate on the 1099, not the principal?

We are running Apps 9 and have a problem with clearing an RNI item.  The original receipt is tied to a fixed asset object that has since been scrapped.  We typically clear these by creating a $0 invoice to the supplier, match the receipt and post the offset elsewhere.  IFS is not allowing us to match this receipt because of the object status.I previously worked in SAP and there was a way to manually clear these items out of the received not invoiced account and was wondering if there was a similar option in IFS.I know we can take the difficult route of rolling back the object transactions to open the object back up and clear this but that would require rollbacks to previous years, which is not ideal.

Hi community,I have come across an issue with the IFS application regarding the Nitro Reader which I recently download set up on my PC. All of my colleagues are familiar with the Nitro Reader and have done the same. When we open documents from IFS, they get opened with the Nitro Reader. However, they get stuck after a moment. In my Posting Proposal screen the previews are also visible and shown in Nitro Reader.I have changed the windows default PDF viewer to Acrobat Reader DC but still got no luck.  How do I fix this?I’ve attempted the solution provided in my previous query:  However, this doesn’t seem to resolve the problem. My issue persists nevertheless.  Cheers!Amos

What are some of the causes of “No Data Found” feedback when you make a search in IFS under Voucher Row Analysis, Voucher Detailed Analysis or even Work Order Sheet 

In IFS APPS 10 I need to set up e-mailing of payment reminders and interest invoices.As far as I understand I need the event PDF_REPORT_CREATED for these, but what are the parameters? Is there a way to set up the event without knowledge of the parameter options?Jonas Jäthing

If a AP invoice has not been received/posted against the original PO receipt prior to completing an RTV (Return to Vendor) transaction then the RTV and Receipt are netted together in RNI (Received Not Invoiced). Is there a setting in IFS that we can “check/uncheck” that would not net these two transactions together? Some of our vendors provide an updated bill while others provide a credit memo for the RTV. We would like these transactions to not net in IFS.

Hi when creating a New Manual Supplier Invoice in the Aurena wizard for this I can't enter a value with decimals when doing the posting information entry. The app automatically rounds to nearest full value. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Tried a new line with 0,22 but it rounded to 0,00 so I'm stuck with a faulty posting. 

Dear community. I have worked in IFS companies that have had “Use Posting Proposal” on and some that have had it off.Since it is a non-reversible decision I wondered if anyone had any thoughts or feedback on the negative aspect of moving to Posting Proposals for Supplier Invoices? anything to consider before turning it on.  Thanks,

Wondering, is that normal for purchase orders to automatically close when the goods receipted through register purchase order arrival??We turned off this setting recently to prevent goods received not invoice transactions we didnt need.Could that setting update have something to do with it?We are trying to add a manual supplier invoice against the receipted PO and it brings an error message to say the purchase order is closed.

We recently upgraded to IFS 10 and there seems to be something in the system that is automatically creating customer order invoices if they are not manually created within 24 hours.  I can’t find a background job that is doing it, but it shows the invoices as created by the app owner.  Does anyone know what is causing this and how to stop it? 

I am running IFS Application 8Could someone please advise on the detailed steps to be followed in order to run the year end rollover process. It would be much appreciated if you could share any documentation which runs through this process.

I have granted read only access on the projection ‘ManageSupplierInvoiceHandling’ and given full access on some entity actions so the user can authorise etc.I would also like to give access to the notes section so the end user can add a note but when I grant full access to the projection ‘NotesInfoVirtual’, it also gives the user access to edit the other sections. In ee client I was able to control this by api’s but I am struggling to do this in Aurena, any help would be much appreciated.This is what I get when I grant full access to the projection ‘NotesInfoVirtual’, if I leave as read only I don’t see the ‘+’ under the notes section or authorise summary. 

Hi,I am fairly new to IFS and even newer to this group.I was wondering is anyone knows of where I can find variance report or reporting for multiple shop orders at a time.  I have been through the Shop Order > Sop Order Costing but I am looking to view a whole day, week or month’s data.  Also would like to export this to Excel for analysis.I have IFS Business Reporter but don’t know how to use it yet.  From what I’ve read, looks like something that might be useful for this information. TIA, Mark

Hello everybody,We are looking to integrate bank transfer statements into IFS. For this we use the CAMT054 Bank Transfer Integration Standard.Let's take the following customer as an example. In his customer analysis, we see that he still owes us 1 customer order invoice debit (20006641, positive amount) and he also have a customer order invoice credit (20005804 and 20005805, negative amount).The customer pays us the invoice 20006641 and take credit from 20005805. After integrating the bank statement with this transfer, we go to External payment to see the line. In the Original File Info column, we can see the 2 invoices.
