In Apps 10, we are wondering about some accounting related to multi-company projects.   Do you know if both the Supplier Company and the Customer Company need to cost account the hours for an employee before any transfer is done between the companies? If the supplier company cost accounts but the customer company does not, what happens? And vice versa? 

Hi Team, While creating Invoice through external customer invoice assistant with IFS Standard File template in UPD7 Test2 the Invoice is not getting created  and end up into error "Net Amount does not match Net Amount in Accounting Currency for Item No XX". The same file is getting uploaded correctly in UPD3. We are only entering Net Currency Amt in invoice line and Currency Amt in posting line along with other mandatory data with the same data in UPD3 invoice is getting created without any error but in UPD7  it is giving error. In both the environment external customer invoice parameter setup is same.  basically in UPD7 system is asking to enter both Net Currency Amt and Net Dom Amt in Invoice line and In posting Line Currency Amt and Dom amount.   Regards, Mukesh Gupta

We are not currently using the MRP for one of our companies and are looking for a simple way to move our stock balances from manual spreadsheets into IFS. We are purchasing and receipting stock using IFS PO’s which will of course increase the stock balance. However, we would like to perhaps use a migration script to reduce stock balances (That would be our usage of this stock). Does anyone know the best way to achieve this?? Can we import material usage?  

Hi Community, We are using Apps 9 Update 15. It has been discovered that there is an issue with Work Orders, specifically the No Part Requisition Lines. The scenario is that, after we created and saved the requisition header. When we add Requisition Lines, and after adding all the required information, and saving, the Quantity is removed from the line. This results in a loop whereby we cannot continue. Surprisingly, if we look at the Purchase Requisition outside of the Work Order, all of the information is present and allows for the conversion to a Purchase Order. We are using Work Orders for CAPEX Orders, and we are unsure if finalising the requisition outside of the WO will cause any posting control issues, or facilitate the Financial Project processing. Any thoughts and suggestions will be appreciated. Regards Ken

Hi, We would like to know how can we enter in IFS invoices issued on our behalf on a partners ERP system. In the company we’re setting up in Switzerland a new company and for the warehouse operations we will have a partner (4PL) that will perform the complete process Order to Cash (from receiving customer orders to receive payments from customers). They will invoice customers on our behalf from their ERP system. Periodically (daily, weekly, …) they will inform us of all inventory transactions, all the invoices they have issued and the payments done by the customers. In this information received, we want to enter in our IFS the customer order, the shipping and the invoice. Entering the customer order and generating the shipping we see no problem. The problem is how to put into IFS the invoice generated by 4PL that was already sent to the customer instead of having IFS generating an invoice. Thank you and Regards!

Hi Community, Is there a way to Import Depreciation for an Existing Object/Asset with newly added Book.

Hi,   We are experiencing wrong tax amount, quantity and price amount on some credit invoices( Project Invoice). Only a few invoices are prone to the error, which seems to be related to how IFS group all the lines together. More specific, it happens when project transactions on the original invoice are diveded into different lines,  but with equal project id, sub project id, employee no,  report cost group id,  activity sequence, report cost code, sales price and some other fields. Then IFS will only put the transactions from the first line into the credit invoice, and then update all the correction project transactions regardless of which lines they belongs to. Lets say we have three different lines on an invoice which matches the criteria given above. We then select “Credit Entire Invoice” on the original Project Invoice, which will result in only one line on the credit invoice, ignoring the other two lines. Furthermore, the project transactions belonging to line two and three in

Hi - this community has been so helpful!  Here’s one more question: IFS Report Generator question.  A report is ordered and selected and then the various fields are populated according to needs.  As you can see in screen shot below - a template has been selected from dropdown/LOV.  I want to change this selected template to public from private.  Where do I find this template?  I’ve checking all the template views, reporting templates, etc.  I even used TOAD to view the IFS views and tables - no luck!  Compounding this - the owner of this template is no longer with company.  I did activate the user profile as well.  Any advice much appreciated.  Thanks!

Hello everyone.  We scan our invoices using FastAP and feed it into IFS.  If we create a receiving document in IFS before the invoice is entered into IFS the system will automatically match it.  If we enter the invoice into IFS before a receiving document is created we have to manually match the two.  Is anyone else experiencing the same thing?  Does anyone have a solution to this issue?  Thank you.
