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.   Many thanks in advance, Lauri

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

Our external payroll administration company sends voucher information in SIE format, which is a standard file format in Sweden for accounting transactions.  Is there a possibility in IFS to receive external vouchers in SIE format?  The SIE format is a HTML file and this far we have only found it is possible to import external vouchers from text files. 

Hi, Facing an issue while deleting one of Currency revaluation account which is used in previous month revaluation. If we rolled back all the currency revaluation transactions and then delete the transaction line and then delete any account from currency revaluations accounts screen it will allow to delete but this is not the good solution.  In IFS V10 UPD it throws error can not be deleted as it used in table, we did not have any such issue in IFS 8.   Ideally it should allow you to delete the account from currency revaluation account screen if we don't want certain account to revalued from crentain period then system not stop at all e.g loan account etc.   Regards, Mukesh Gupta 

Hi, Re Voucher entry Window, Whenever user click on add button I want to fill Voucher status automatically  as “Approved”.    What are the ways I can achieve this ?      

This issue happens rarely but when it does it un-explainable. The part list price is in the part record the part list price is also in the part pricing rule that generates however, on the request it doesnt trigger anything the first screenshot shows part pricing triggering successfully. you can see the price rule sequence   The one with the issue isnt pulling it at all

Hi,   How can we invoice for the price difference to purchase invoice? Does anybody know?

Hi, After migrating from Apps8 to Apps10 we are experiencing some problems with tax amount in project invoice and in GL Voucher. In spesific, we found out that tax will not be updated if the checkbox "Preliminary Update Allowed" in project invoice lines is not checked, which is set automatically and is not editable. In apps8 this was not a problem. Is there any changes in Apps10 we should be aware off? We see that if we create correction transaction in project transaction it automatically set "Preliminary Update Allowed" to unchecked.  We also not noted that if we use the function “Create Correction Transaction” in project transactions and change information on project transaction with Correction Status “Correction”, this is not reflected in Project Posting Analysis and GL Voucher when transactions are booked in GL Voucher. An example is that we correct hours and change the number of hours for project transaction with Correction Status “Correction” and the cost for the original number

Hi All,    Has anyone have any issues with EFT payment types on the Remittances sent out to the suppliers?  We currently do not have any bank details in the electronic payment addresses .  My assumptions are that  this is causing the issues as IFS assumes all suppliers are related to one bank account (none?).  What is the minimum data required within the EFT payment type to get the remittance split by supplier? 

I wonder if it’s possible to exclude one or more customer number from a scheduled batch job?
