Hi Team,What is the significance of Posting Control AP 1 & AP2 & when it is used?  

We have a background job error on customer orders but I have never seen a field called revised qty to make the update to get the error to go away. 

We use the approval process functionality, on the Manual Supplier Invoice screen, in IFS APP 10.  We have created a “Hold for Approval” payment term,  that is aged at 360 days.  When an invoice requires approval(s), before it can be paid, we manually change the supplier’s payment term to this “Hold for Approval” payment term.  This prevents the invoice from being selected to a payment proposal and  paid in a check run before the approval(s) are complete.  Periodically, we then have to query for those invoices with the “Hold for Approval” payment term, to see if the approvals have been completed.  Once they are, we manually unauthorize the invoice,  change the payment terms back to the supplier’s normal terms, and authorize it again.  While this process serves the purpose, it is very time consuming. Is there any way that this can be automated, so an invoice cannot be paid before all approval steps attached to it have been completed?  

Need help on 2 issues - may or may not be related Some customer orders we were previously able to authorize then later charge are having some issues.  The authorization will approve, however when we try to capture the payment upon invoicing, we are met with this issue, where the original transaction ID is not found.  Currently a major issue as we do many CC transactions daily Whenever users attempt to input and save CC details they are met with this error now  

We are installing IFS for the first time.  We are debating whether to install the most current version (21R1) or v10 UPD 12.  The concern is that 21R1 is a major release and was just released in March so may not be entirely stable. Our installation is primarily focused on Financials, Procurement and Project Management.I’d like to hear from any customers with experience implementing 21R1.  Have you had significant issues with bugs?  Have you lost any functionality that you had in v10 Aurena or Enterprise?I’d also like to hear from IFS support as to the current  bug list and are there any major issues with the release?

Hello Everyone,We are installing APPS 10 UD8 in the U.S. and there is a requirement to print checks to pay some of our suppliers.  I’m hoping those of you who have experience in this area can give me some advice on how we should proceed. The check form we will be using to print checks on is blank which means in addition to the supplier payment information (name, amount, payment details) we also need to print company information such as company name, address and image.  The MICR line must be printed as well with the company bank account number, bank routing number, and check number.   The MICR line must also be in a special font, E13b.Once approach we are considering is using the IFS report LASER_PRINT_CHECK_REP and modifying it to meet our requirements.  The standard XML is missing key data elements but it seems most of the data is in IFS or can be added.Has anyone else used this same approach? If so, how did you handle the special font requirement for the MICR line.   Or if you have b

We are using apps 10 and i want to use the purchase order to send raw materials to the partner. The event PURSHIP with posting type  M1 M15 are used for this event. I use M1 to fetch the inventory account  using C32 control type but i request help to fetch the right account with M15. The issue i have is that posting type M15 is not based on the component part but on the parent part whatever the control type i used. When receiving the parent part two events are created. The ARRIVAl which is used when receiving part based on PO using and M10 and an other event POINV-WIP is created with M10 and M15. M15 amount value seems to be the sum of M15 value of the PO PURSHIP.Actually i want to know what’s is the M15 purpose.I am looking forwaerd to hearing from someone who was facing the same issue. Eventually i intend to simplify by using material to the supplier partener using  NREC and NISS but my customer seems want to use purchase order for that.  Thanks

Hi,  Hope this message finds you well. We have a supplier with WHT set up to  be withheld at the payment (as image below), the Tax Code is also set up to withheld at payment. We need that the accounting and voucher to takes place only at payment moment. However, when we try to make a Manual Supplier Invoice, it automatically turns into PartlyPaidPosted and generate a voucher, as below:  Any thoughts? Thanks in advance

When running the task to match a supplier invoice to new Po receipts, the latest receipt is consumed rather than the oldest one. I’m not aware of any configuration that influences this, id this the intended behaviour?

This is a tough one I have 2 companies setup in IFS. We raise an invoice (Voucher type I) from company A to B with VAT on because both have different VAT account. Then instead of making a payment we raise a credit note (Voucher type I) which should work as payment.When we run the VAT return for company B it picks up both invoice and the credit note. Any suggestion how do i change the voucher type on the credit note so it doesn’t get picked up by the VAT return.I will buy you coffee if you help me resolve this and you are in London !!! Regards, Sohail 

Hello.  I created the asset below and imported an acquisition value of $2,409.15 and an accumulated depreciation of $2,179.69, so it’s remaining value is $229.46 . It has 8 months of life remaining. Is there a depreciation method that is already in IFS that can be used to depreciate the remaining value over the remaining 8 months of its life? And if so, how can it be set up in the Books tab of the object? Any assistance would be much appreciated.

I am in the process of setting up Positive Pay as a Batch Process file out of IFS, using the standard External File Type ExtPosPayCheck. We have multiple companies in our IFS instance that we pay from.  I would like to generate a single file to send to the bank since all of the accounts are with one bank, but I’m not seeing that there is a way to do this - am I missing something, or is it correct to say that I will need to schedule a batch process for each company individually?Thanks, Cynthia

Is there a standard template format that is used for uploading customer and/or supplier invoices? We currently have a process of invoices being created by manually inputting data from a s/sheet, if we could upload this it would save time and reduce risk of human error or mis typing info We have a scanning system which will extract data from supplier invoices, but we need a format that we can put this information into that helps us scan direct into IFS and remove manual input
