 Hi,Does anyone have an example of what fields are required on the Supplier Electronic Payment Address and elsewhere to generate an ISO20022 BACS XML file for HSBC?We are going back and forth with HSBC on this and I cannot find any detailed documentation.We currently have this set up:Payment Format per Institute > Format Specific Information per InstituteI think HSBC wants this to be the Initiating Companies Bank Account or Sort Code. For Supplier ZCK001 CK-Interiors Limited - Electronic Payment Address: Confusingly the Bank Name says Employee’s Payment Institute. Should this be the Companies Bank Account Name or the Suppliers Account Name?Cheers,Graham Last response from HSBC: Still no payment type in the file and if this is a Bacs file you need your SUN in file<PmtInf><PmtInfId>2024-06-17/181/1</PmtInfId><PmtMtd>TRF</PmtMtd><NbOfTxs>2</NbOfTxs><CtrlSum>.04</CtrlSum><PmtTpInf><InstrPrty>NORM</InstrPrty><SvcL

Hello everyone,I have a quick question regarding the matching of customer credit notes.When I issue a credit note from an invoice, it is not automatically matched with the related invoice.- Creation of a credit note :  The credit note appears as unmatched in the customer analysis screen :  I have to perform the matching manually in the customer offset :Is this the normal/standard behavior, or is there a setting that allows the credit note to be automatically matched with the invoice?Since I created the credit note directly from an invoice, it would be logical for it to be automatically matched with that invoice.Thank you for your helpRegards

We have a supplier that will be looking for payment to differing bank details dependant on the service they provide.  I can see that I can have secondary bank details and attach them to specific invoices etc so that both will pull through into a BACs run when invoices are cleared.Can the payment details be added to PO, so that the invoice will automatically attach to these second details when ready for payment - or is the only option to manually add the details in the invoice instalment section

Hi,We setup a new customer. I've checked and to me the customer and tax code set up is all correctAlthough they have been set up with S1 Tax code, correct price including tax hasn't been pulled through properly while creating customer agreement.  The problem is Tax code which should "add" 10% to the total price seems not to be applied properly to the particular account although setup has been done."Price" and "Price incl. Tax" should be different (+10%), but for some reason they remain the same when I try to set up the Pricing Agreement It can be because of baseline price, that is 0.00 over sales part base price. But I can see that all customers have actually 0.00e Price, but for them Tax code worked fine. Base Price is 0, but Price including Tax is 10% higher that Sales Price. Request your suggestions, what can be the issue and how to resolve it.

Hi All.Please help me,  I would like to set up the withholding tax on APP 8, as in Italy this needs to be handled separately. Could someone help me with this from the very beginning? The Italian equivalent is Ritenuta d'acconto, which can be applied at different percentages. What basic data settings are required? This should appear during the payment process, and is it controlled by transaction PP49?

Dears, can you advise what steps should be done in order to change accounting currency in IFS v8. Our country is shifting to EUR we need to implement such change. Thanks

Hello, How should the depreciation method be configured in version 8 to comply with the following requirements?This means that the asset’s value is depreciated in equal annual installments (20% per year).The method is called "linear depreciation" (ammortamento lineare).If the asset is put into use during the year, a reduced rate is often applied in the first year—typically 50% of the standard rate (i.e., 10% in the first year, then 20% in subsequent years).Depreciation starts from the year the asset is activated, not from the purchase date.According to Article 2426 of the Italian Civil Code, the value of assets must be depreciated systematically, taking into account their useful life.brocardiUnder Article 102 of the Italian Tax Code (TUIR), the depreciation rate must be applied starting from the year the asset is put into use. In the first year, the depreciation rate must be reduced by 50% (e.g., 10% instead of 20%). Thanks Ili

Hi,We are starting the e-invoice project with Pagero now and I wonder if we have the right invoice xml format in IFS with all the tags needed if we are on IFS10 and UPD26? Do you know if there are some new needed tags added in later updates? Regards,Marika

HiI want to move/offset a parked payment (on company) to a supplier (Generating a payment on account). So I am creating a Mixed Payment (Suplier Payment) on 0 amount linked to a supplier. Then chose/match the Parked Payment from the list. The payment is now not balanced. When trying to approve, the system does ask if I want to create a Payment on account for the Supplier. Saying Yes to that.   Then I do approve the payment. But it does fail, saying:  “The matched amount is bigger than the payment amount in lumb sum”.  How can this be done?  I believe it worked in APPS 10.

Hi Community, I have created a Template Customer, and filled in info in Invoice and Payment sections, after connecting the template customer to a company.eg:Then I use the template customer in the Quick Register Customer screen: On the Misc Info step, IFS allows me to change info such as Payment Term [which connects to the Invoice section of the customer]. However, when Finish is clicked, and the new customer gets created, none of the sections where company connection is present [eg: invoice, payment] get filled in the new customer record. Is this the expected behavior? Isn’t Quick Register Customer able to fill in sections where company connection is present? Note that if “Copy Customer” is done from the Customer screen, these sections also get copied in. Thanks in advance for your input!

What exactly do the scheduled jobs, Transfer Purchase Transactions, Get Tax Ledger Updates and General ledger Updates do. I need to test the jobs to ensure all will work in the Cloud as we move from Apps10 and need to understand the functions. I am non finance so not familiar with the details of such. Thanks

Hello everyone,I have a question regarding simulation vouchers. When a simulation voucher is entered manually, it is automatically reversed in the following period. A specific voucher type (function group R) is dedicated for the reversalBelow is the parameters of the two vouchers types : However, when importing an external file (STDVOU), this automatic reversal does not happen.Do you know if this is normal? Or could it be a mistake on my part ?Thank you in advance for your help."

When we made payment with EBF the payment was grouped for one supplier. Which means that all the invoices to a supplier with the same due date were payed in one transactionNow when we make payment via ISO20022, it doesn’t group them. Which means that it makes one transaction for each invoice. Is there a way to group the invoice payments and payed in one amount in ISO20022?

Hello everyone,I have a question regarding supplier payment proposals.When there is a payment proposal for the same supplier, is it possible to configure the system to generate a separate transfer for each invoice instead of a single transfer that consolidates all the invoices ?Thank you in advance for your help

Hello all,How can I see by which functions and packages filling the fields exported ISO20022 payment file? Fex: payment reference has been sent only unstructured payments but not placed in structured file.

I would like to create separate top nodes within the same accounting structure in IFS Cloud, so that the same code part value (e.g. for code part C) can be placed under different top nodes for different groupings (e.g. one group with topnod for “Budget” and another with topnod “Segment” reporting).The problem is that in the IFS Cloud interface, I cannot "deselect" an existing node in order to create a truly separate top node. When I try to add a new top node, it always ends up under the already existing one, instead of creating two independent hierarchies within the same structure.My requirement is to have two parallel groupings (two top nodes) in the same accounting structure, both using the same code part values.This is how it looks when I created two topnodes since I cannot “deselect” the any of them to create a new one.   

Problem:   Customer master indicated as customer has WHT implications (say 2%)  When funds received from customer, user use mixed payment for recording payment received.  User notice that this particular transaction did not have WHT implications as this transaction is solely for purchase of goods.  User proceed to delete WHT tax record on invoice details under mixed payment.  However, system did not update change, still restricted amount received at 98%. (net of 2%)  User can proceed to post if user indicate amount received at 98%  The extra 2% will be reflected as a CUPOA (over payment) in the customer ageing account. But when we do this in IFS Apps 10, it works as expected and no CUPOA is created. However, in IFS Cloud, a CUPOA (over-payment) . is created — why does this behavior occur?”

Problem:There is a setting in Company\Invoice\General called “Based discount on Gross amount” meaning that the payment discount is either calculated over the Gross amount (ON) or over the invoice amount ex. tax (OFF). However, this applies to both customer invoices as well as supplier invoices. Currently we have the situation where we have some suppliers calculating the payment discount over the invoice Gross amount and some which calculate it over Nett invoice amount. Needless to say this should be a setting on the payment terms, not a single setting set for an entire company.  Does anyone else have issues with this?
