Currently when uploading a multi-company voucher, the voucher won’t bring in the intercompany accounts needed to balance the entry.  When doing the entry manually (Manual Voucher) it will bring in the intercompany accounts needed to balance the entry.Is there a way to upload multi-company external vouchers that will balance the entry with the correct intercompany accounts?  Is there something we can do on the external voucher template to assist with the auto balancing like when entering a manual voucher?

Hello, Does anyone use the Customer > Credit Infor >  “allowed Overdue amount” or “Allowed overdue days” fields?   Do these impact a customer orders going on credit block?  I would have thought it was meant for that but it doesn’t appear to be.   ie: we want to allow a customer order to be released if it’s wanted receipt date or value is within a certain number of days or amount of its outstanding invoices with these fields populated.  Otherwise what are these fields used for?  calculation of interest ? Thanks!

We had ownership in a subsidiary change mid-year from 50% to 100% and changed the consolidation method from Equity Minority to Equity Majority accordingly.  This is resulting in a financials out of balance on the parent node in consolidations. The income statement side (GCP2 & GCP8) of the Profit Elimination consolidation transaction type remain but the balance sheet side (GCP1 & GCP7) cease with the change in consolidation method.   The result is in effect a one-sided entry. How to resolve this so this consolidation node is back in balance?

Hi I have noticed that after Transferring Payments and Acknowledging them, the expense claim sits as ‘Authorized’ and not ‘Transferred’. Any ideas what might be missing?

When running the cash flow exposure report, the system is considering purchase order lines invoice payments in the future as intended.  The issue I am having is that the report is considering the total value of the PO line and not subtracting any advance payments that have been made to the supplier.  If the over all invoices is for $1,000,000 but we have made $500,000 in advance payments, then the future cash flow should show -$500,000.  It is currently showing the entire $1,000,000.The advance payments are showing as separate lines under the incoming balance section with the cash flow type = Supplier on Acc. PaymentsDoes anyone know how to solve this issue? 

I am having some trouble using the cash flow exposure feature in IFS. I may have setup something wrong, but the immediate concern is that I am getting an error message in the update cash flow analysis snapshot background job.When I run the update cash flow analysis snapshot - I choose company A.The error message is: PaymentTerm.NOPAYTERMEXIST: Payment Term is not defined for the Supplier 30322 for Company A                    ORA-20105: CfaUpdateUtility.ORA-20105 This supplier is not setup for this company. When I setup the payment terms for this supplier, I received an error for another supplier that isn’t setup for company A.  Cash flow analysis snapshot setup:  Analysis Details Cash Flow source (I am looking to create a cash flow analysis of our payables onl

I am using Enterprise Explorer Applications 10 and there is a customer order for a customer that is not blocking but it should be because the customer has a credit limit of zero on the Customer screen (“credit info” tab; credit limit) and also on the header of the customer’s Customer Analysis screen.It isn’t a custom event that is casing it not to block, it must be something internal in IFS. I haven’t been able to trace it. Can anyone shed any light on this?Thank you

We are upgrading to Cloud from Apps10, and found while testing functionality that we could not post a Manual Supplier Invoice without unchecking this box. (it was checked in Apps10 and did not have this issue)Just want to make sure that there are no unforeseen repercussions to unchecking this box.We do not use posting proposals...and post each invoice as it is created. 

Hi, Does anyone know a way of making the Payment Term Base Date on a Project Invoice automatically equal that of the Application Date on the Application for Payment?ThanksStephen

We are importing the fixed asset subledger into IFS for an entity that has an Asset Retirement Obligation (ARO) asset with a negative balance.  The asset came to have a negative balance after a valuation adjustment at the end of 2022.IFS does not allow you to import a negative cost or a positive accumulated depreciation resulting in a negative balance on an asset.Does anyone else have an issue with ARO objects having a negative balance and how are these dealt with in IFS?Thanks,Monique

We recently upgraded from IFS 8.1 to IFS Cloud 2023.2.2.In 8, we had the ability to set a shop floor employee job for difference as an indirect operation or a direct operation.  In IFS Cloud, we do not see a place to set a direct job for difference, only indirect.Has this functionality been completely removed with intent, or was it moved?Is anyone handling this situation differently? Screenshots of IFS 8 and IFS Cloud pertinent screens attached.

When creating AFPs with retentions, it has been observed that the retention percentage does not always calculate correctly. This creates issues when we receive payment certificates from customers, as we are unable to match the values accurately.For example, in a contract with a value of £75,542.08 and a 5% retention, the expected retention amount should be £3,777.10. However, the application calculates the retention as £3,777.16, resulting in a 3p discrepancy when releasing the interim retentions.Could you please provide guidance on how to resolve this issue? It may cause problems with customers when paying invoices. 

Dear Community,in our company we’d like to implement MT100 bank payment format for payments in EUR. Could you please kindly advise where to define that the cost of such payment should on our side - ‘OUR’ identifier. I cannot see any place for such info in the Electronic Payment Address. Have you faced such an issue? Do you have any suggestions where to look for? We are also testing the option of Polish Split Payment solution of vat payment in accounting currence. If there are any Polish specialist with experience in this area here, I’d be also grateful for any feedback. Thanks :)

After defining a custom rule with SA070200 code in Avalara, is it possible to apply this custom rule to a charge or non-inventory part in IFS? 

In IFS, when labor clocks into a shop order, the cost is derived from the "Labor Class," which is defined in the routing of the part. However, when labor clocks into an indirect job, the cost is calculated as hours worked × standard cost, where the standard cost is defined in HR > Standard Costs. The issue is that these standard cost rates have not been updated in a long time. We are concerned that changing it might impact other accounts or areas within the system.Before making any updates, We’d like to understand: What specific accounts or financial areas would be affected by a change to the standard cost? Are there any dependencies or system configurations that need to be checked before updating this value? I’d appreciate any insights or experiences from those

Hi Friends,Accounting team proceeded to AR matching, and few days later,, the matching  user ID disappeared. any reason for this?Kindly help 

We are experiencing performance issues with job cost calculation. We would be interested to know if we are unique in having the Job Cost Calculation take hours to process 20,000 - 30,000 transactions and if RnD could consider addressing the issue identified with the specific query described below. Detailed logging in a development environment has pin-pointed that half the time taken by the scheduled job opening this cursor:Job_Cost_Calculation_Util_API.Get_Emp_Std_Agreements___"get_rec"This cursor joins to 2 views (rate_agreement_detail_uiv and job_transaction_parameter_uiv) which both do expensive PIVOT WITHIN GROUP operations pivoting data from child parameter tables. Then this query takes the results of those pivoted views and tries to join to them in a complex filter. The job_transaction_parameter_uiv join is efficient because it uses transaction_id directly pushing the predicate into the view. However, the rate_agreement_detail_uiv join does full

Community, there are “Cost Center ID”  field in both Manufacturing Labor Class and Work Center window. See screenshot for both windows.My question is, if I had Cost Center ID entered in both below 2 windows, will this value be travelling to GL in the end? in other words, will it be showing up in the GL code string (Cost Centr)?

Hi, We have a new user and have set them up to view posting proposals but the multi company radial button doesn’t appear to be working.The user can get data in each individual company but the multi company doesn’t work.The user is configured in both Invoice Posting Authoriser and Invoice Payment Authoriser. They are configured as a super user and can see the data individually.I’ve confirmed it’s not a permission set issue but I can’t track down what alternative setting would cause this. ThanksHelen
