It is possible to copy a business plan, with planning units, planning rules and planning unit transactions, as budget, to a forecast. However when using the copy business plan to a new year the planning transactions are not copied. Is there a way? If no, why? Today we have to use either migration jobs or external files to import new budget.

Hi,In the documentation in below topic it is mentioned  that the DTD file (GDPDU-01-08-2002.DTD) is delivered by IFS.https://community.ifs.com/finance-financials-42/questions-on-german-localization-gdpdu-8579Does any one know how to generate this file?I can get the data extracts using Audit Interface Assistant. Not sure how to get this DTD file.ThanksGayan  

Good day, We are finding instances where, on the Customer Analysis screen (Financials-Accounts Receivable-Customer Analysis) searching populates the correct customer in header but has different customer details in the 'Ledger Items's tab.Has anyone encountered this or similar in Cloud?   

Issue: Today we are using the IFS service contract module. In the module we are allowed to create an order with both Charge Lines and Debit Lines.We are now replacing the service contract module with a stand alone Subscription tool and then only sent an “invoice file” to IFS, and then IFS creates an order from the information in that file.Because we are not using the service contract module, we are not allowed to create a normal order with both Charge Lines and Debit Lines.Do you have any workaround for this, so I am able to create the order ? 

We have identified a discrepancy between the PO amount and the amount available in Match PO Receipts.For PO S1373, the total PO amount is 5,412.95, while the total receipt matching amount is 5,413.05, resulting in a difference of 0.10. The quantities and unit prices are identical on both the PO and the receipts.After analysing the documents, it seems that the difference is caused by rounding at receipt level. One PO line has a quantity of 5,000 and a unit price of 0.2917, but the receipts were created in multiple transactions of 250 units each. The individual receipt amounts appear to be rounded before being accumulated, generating a total difference of 0.10.Could you please confirm if this is expected IFS behaviour and advise whether there is any configuration available to avoid or reduce these accumulated rounding differences during PO receipt matching?

Hi,I am working with IFS Cloud and the operational report CUST_AGE_ANALYSIS_REP.The report stores the generated data in a result table, and I have created a Quick Report based on this table. I now need to add two columns that are available in Customer Analysis: Open Amount Currency However, these fields are not stored in the result table generated by CUST_AGE_ANALYSIS_REP, so they are not available as columns in the Quick Report.What would be the recommended approach in this case? 

Hi Finance experts,We have added Identity Type (Customer/Supplier type) and Identity(Customer ID/Supplier ID) to voucher_row_tab via a Modification. Now there is a requirement to modify External File Templates STDVOU/STDVOU2 to update above values.I believe this is a Modification but I would like to know1. Is this a complex modification requires changes in multiple places?2.Is it a good practice to change STDVOU/STDVOU2 templates?3. Do we have any other alternative options like Configuration instead of a Modification to achive this?

We are setting up BACs file with new bank, have set up a new cash account in IFS and also a Payment instituteHow do I connect these, as I cannot create a BACs file using the new cash account

Issue:The customer order cannot be released because the presence of cancelled internal order lines prevents the release process from completing successfully.Expected Behavior:Cancelled lines with an Internal order type should not prevent the customer order from being released, provided there are no other blocking conditions.Actual Behavior:The customer order remains blocked and cannot be released when cancelled internal order lines exist.  

A. What is your idea?1) ClassificationOpportunity for improvement2) Brief descriptionOn the Post Imported Object Transactions page, users can select specific lines and execute the Post Imported Object Transactions command. This functionality creates the expectation that only the selected lines will be processed. However, the system ignores the line selection and posts all imported transactions, regardless of the selected records.While the product documentation states that "As a result of this activity, all imported objects are posted on the same vouchers," the ability to select individual lines in the UI can be misleading, as it suggests that the posting action will be limited to the selected transactions. This creates a discrepancy between the documented behavior and the user experience.B. Context and scope1) Who is affected?​​​​​Internal users Customers Partners2) Frequency​​​​​FrequentlyC.

HiIs it possible to change the settings for when Business Reporter reports start if they are launched as scheduled from Order Report? We are implementing IFS Cloud, and I have noticed that scheduled BR reports start daily at 00:00.Kerstin

Hi All,I need a solution for loading external supplier invoices with PO matching for partial receipts.When I attempt to load invoices using the STDSIN1 or STDSIN2 external file templates for partially received quantities, the supplier invoice posting proposal goes into an Unbalanced status. This occurs because additional receipts are being matched against the same invoice, even though multiple supplier invoices may be received against a single PO based on the quantities received.The PO matching process is performed either at the PO header level or PO line level, and no receipt reference functionality is currently being used. As a result, the system appears to match all available receipts for the PO instead of only the receipts related to the supplier invoice being loaded.Is there a solution or recommended approach to load supplier invoices through the external file template and automatically match them only to the corresponding PO receipts for partial deliveries?

Hi Community,We are in the process of reviewing our options to comply with upcoming Singapore GST InvoiceNow Requirement. Any of you know have experience in this area?We are currently using IFS Application 10.Thank you. 

I used the MAN_SUPP_INVOICE_API.Cancel__() to cancel multiple Supplier Invoices. but this action did not create any K Vouchers in order to reverse the I Vouchers which were created during the Supplier Invoice creation. Is there any way to create K Vouchers? or reverse this.

A. What is your idea?1) ClassificationOpportunity for improvement2) Brief descriptionIntroduce a standard Unit of Production (UOP) depreciation method within IFS Cloud Fixed Assets.Currently, customers who require depreciation based on actual asset consumption (e.g., units produced, machine hours, operating hours, kilometres travelled, tonnes mined) must implement custom solutions because IFS does not provide a native UOP depreciation method. This requirement has already resulted in customer-specific customizations and development efforts.The proposed enhancement would provide a standard depreciation method that:Maintains expected lifetime production/usage units. Captures actual units consumed for each depreciation period. Calculates depreciation based on actual asset usage rather than time. Supports manual entry, file uploads, and integrations. Provides standard validations and reporting.This enhancement would improve support for industries such as Mining, Manufacturing, Oil & Gas

Dear Community, When validating our SAF-T XML file, we get the following 2 error messages: Line: 5950, position: 7 - The element 'TaxRegistration' in namespace 'urn:StandardAuditFile-Taxation-Financial:NO' has invalid child element 'TaxAuthority' in namespace 'urn:StandardAuditFile-Taxation-Financial:NO'.

Hi everybody, In Italy, the Quarterly Tax Liquidation Report should report in the field VP2 - Totale operazioni attive (al netto dell'IVA) (Total sales) the net amount of proper sales, without considering the net amount of the entries generated by Reverse Charge purchases,  but in field VP4 - IVA esigibile (Payable VAT) must contain the VAT amount of these operations. Had anyone found a way to generate the Quarterly Tax Liquidation Report in this way? Thank you,

Is there a way to design a GL Automatic Posting Rule around a Code Part Attribute? For example, we have an attribute of “Category” on our Project code parts. I’d like to set up a rule to post projects of a certain Category to a specific cost center. We have thousands of projects and only 5 attribute categories, so I’m hoping to define a rule around the attribute rather than at the individual project code part level. Appreciate any thoughts you have on this.

Hi,I have a number of lines in Project Revenue Postings that are stuck in Posting Status Valid.What is missing to get these to be transferred? The only selection available in this screen is Update Invoice Postings, which does not change anything.I am guessing some kind of BG job is missing?

HiI We are currently testing the migration from pain.001.001.03 to pain.001.001.09 in IFS Applications 10 using the standard system-defined transformer: IFS_ISO20022_TO_CORE_09_ISO20022. During testing with Nordea we identified two questions regarding the generated XML.1. Regulatory ReportingIn the generated file we see the following mapping:<RgltryRptg> <DbtCdtRptgInd>DEBT</DbtCdtRptgInd> <Dtls> <Cd>14</Cd> <Inf>Message to Valutaregisteret</Inf> </Dtls></RgltryRptg> After reviewing the transformer, I can see:NATIONAL_BANK_CODE        RgltryRptg/Dtls/CdNATURE_OF_BUSINESS        RgltryRptg/Dtls/Inf However, I cannot find any mapping that generates:  <Tp>PURP</Tp>. Nordea has pointed out that the Type element (Tp) is missing:My questions are:Which IFS field should generate RgltryRptg/Dtls/Tp? Is there a standard setup required in IFS? Is this a known limitation in the standard transformer? Has anyone successfully gen

Our users report the following: In IFS, when an advance payment is managed via the PO by inserting the advance payment, and the PO is still in the draft / unauthorized status, the advance payment can simply be processed by AP. Why does IFS allow payment against a not authorized PO? Are we doing something wrong? Who can advice?

The standard functionality in IFS Cloud supports inverted currency rates only for EUR, which is configured as inverted by default. For other currencies, the "Inverted Quotation When Reference Currency" field on the Currency Codes page is not editable. However, some customers have business requirements to maintain inverted currency rates for specific currencies. Therefore, clarification is required on the recommended approach and available configuration options to support such scenarios within IFS Cloud.The R&D team has provided a more convenient method for making a Currency Code Inverted by using Company Templates.Steps to FollowOpen the Company Templates page, filter for the STD template, and use the Copy Company Template command to create a new template based on STD. Open the newly created Company Template and select Company Template Component. Select the Accrul component and then open Company Template LU. Select the Currency Code LU and open Company Template Detail. Navigate to

Hello everyone,I’m completely lost.I’m using IFS Cloud 25R2 and I’m desperately trying to generate a UBL invoice in the French format.First of all, I’ve correctly configured a customer for an E-INVOICE output.Next, I created an OUT routing rule (first with a message_type = E-INVOICE_FR, then SEND_UBL_EINVOICE_LIFE_CYCLE_EVENT), an IFS_FINVOICE_TO_IFS_EINVOICE transformer, a routing address (functional, FinvoiceUBL_%TAG=INVOICE_ID%_%TAG=C06%.xml) and, finally, a sender).When I send an invoice to this customer, an XML file containing the customer’s invoice data is indeed written to disk, but it does not conform to the template required by the French government.Does anyone have a document setting out all the configuration steps required to successfully generate an invoice in the French UBL format? I’ve been searching through the documentation, but nothing I’ve tried has worked.Thank you for your help.
