Bad Debt cash written off pre implementation of our IFS has been received by the administrators and allocated to the customer account, this now needs to be journal to the bad debt account in the P&L. We are not aware of the process for doing this? Is there a way to washout open AR to a specified account?   Thanks

Does anyone have any tips on how they handle standing orders (Fixed monthly payments leaving the bank) within IFS. We have quite a few, and currently are uploading the bank statement, then creating single mixed payments for each item. Its a long winded process. Is there a way I could pre-load these items? Am thinking external file load into the mixed payments screen but not entirely sure how to achieve. Thanks  

Is it possible to upload to the check cashing screen (mass cashing) in lieu of cashing line by line or utilizing bank statement uploads?   :)  Thank you!

We would like to be able to assign shop order labor to expense and not to the balance sheet.   Example. Shop order has two components – a part and 2 hr of labor: Material $100 Labor $20 The goal is to have $100 in Finished Goods (balance sheet) when the shop order is complete and $20 on a P&L account. With the current setup, the labor cost rolls into inventory cost, which results in the total of $120 going into inventory. Since we are not sure what makes up the current set up - we don’t know what needs to be changed in IFS. Any ideas on set up/configuration that needs to be done to accomplish our example?

I am trying to close 2018 in Apps 9 for a company with the main currency of GBP, but the parallel currency is USD.  I’m off $1.50 - which I believe is just a rounding issue.  I cannot close the year, because I’m not in balance.  Does anyone know how to correct it?

Hi,   In a foreign currency supplier account, the invoice was entered at one rate, but was paid at a different rate on later date. The foreign currency amount clears off fine, but in the Supplier account, it is leaving a balance in the home currency. What would be the best way to write off this difference to bring the account down to $0 balance in both foreign currency and home currency?     Thanks in advance, Lawrence  

Hi Guys,   I am facing an issue in Apps 10 where an Fixed Asset created through a Project cannot be moved, sell or scrap..etc. It gives error saying the project is completed. The setup was as follows. GP3 Account for Project and Acquisition Account for Object is same Reposted to same account   When Project was completed, the object was moved by removing the Project code part. In here reposting debit entry was created without Project Eg ACC01 - OBJ01   DR  XXX ACC01 - PROJ01-OBJ01   CR  XXX   Is it wrong to use GP3 Account for Project and Acquisition Account for Object as same ? What is the way to get rid of this flowstopper?   Cheers Lahiru

Dear IFS experts We have been trying to go live with the MCPR functionality in IFS for a while. It has been an interesting project. We are facing a potential issue at the moment. Recently, we modified our customer tax codes because of the Making Tax Digital (MTD) initiative and now we are having issues with MCPR when we test the functionality between UK and France companies. Our company in France is not setup with a E2 tax code but we use this code in UK. We are wondering if the tax codes have to match for all companies in MCPR or if there is another way to deal with this. Your advice will be very much welcome. Regards Miguel

We have 215 vouchers sat in error that have not passed through to our General Ledger. All of the errors relate to Manual supplier invoices created by numerous users on or after 16th December. The same update error of “The Obj Connect Lu Transform object does not exist” relating to an IP5 posting control. We are not aware of any changes to our system, so are totally baffled as to it’s cause. Has anyone got a clue how to resolve this or had a similar issue ? Regards,

How do you pick a list of customers and create a batch job to generate PDF statements of account and save the files to a specified location 

Hi All, Is there any standard ifs overview window or report to see the daily customer payments?

Our 12 offices have just upgraded form UPD4 to UPD7 and just found out that in UPD5 that a change was made on the Business Opportunity Line that the cost cannot be changed on an inventory item.  Once IFS recognizes the part, the cost is pulled and the user cannot change it.  Has anyone else run into this where it is a show stopper for your organization?  Our costs can vary depending on the source, depending on the quantity ordered or any deals we may have with certain customers.  So it’s common practice for us to adjust the cost for our parts.  Just curious if we are alone with this obstacle.  Thanks

Hello, Is there any documentation about how to set up & use GL Automatic Posting Rules. Highly appreciate any guidance, suggestions, tips on how to set up system to create transactions automatically on the basis of an original transaction.

We are using APPS9. Is anyone using the AP/AR netting functionality?  We want to start using the netting process but we are trying to figure out how to let the supplier know that we have netted one of their AR invoices against their AP check. We would like to identify, the AR invoice that was used in the offset, on the supplier remittance advice without having to do it manually so that the supplier is aware that the netting has taken place. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Rob  

Hi IFS Community Members,   We are using staged billing profiles in customer order lines. Due to the size and complexity of our projects, there may be more than 20 staged billing lines per profile.   Recently a customer order line was cancelled accidentally while the staged billing profile still had both invoiced, uninvoiced and open staged billing lines. Because the cancelled order line wast the last one in the order the entire customer order changed to cancelled. Instead of creating a completely new customer order, we would like to utilize the exiting customer order and the exiting staged billing profile.   What we’d like to hear is: is there a any way to reopen a cancelled customer order/order line is it possible to prevent customer order cancellation if it has uninvoiced staged billing lines   For reference, we are using IFS 9 and update 14.  

Hi, I have created a report which the ‘GL Balance’ column is set as a repeater and with ‘Year’ being the input, it shows each period correctly. Now I need to show the Year-to-Date value in the each repeating period. I am not sure how to give this logic in the column filter as it is the repeater that determined the bottom period. The customer is using IFS V10 UPD6. Any ideas? Thank you - Pamith
