Hi,The permission of removing the records in the supplier open balance history window is granted to the user who creates the record only.But the user who created it is no more in the company.Even with the admin account we cannot delete the supplier open balance history.Do you know an other way to delete a old supplier open balance history?  

How do you create a stub period or short year if your company is sold?  I understand that I can remove removes months from the Accounting Periods to have the Year End Closing earlier but how do I create the short period?

Hello,The issue is related to deletion of some of the tax records from Tax Transactions screen, after analysis it was found that we have an option on the screen ‘Tax Ledger Parameters’ named as ‘Delete Tax Transactions with Status False’.Can someone please help in understanding the business logic and purpose of this option, and why it only works when Tax method is selected as ‘Payment’ in supplier invoice. ThanksSurbhi

Hi,  I want to run the periodical capitalization and revenue recognition transaction, but for 3 projects I’m not able to post/close the voucher.I’m able to run the capitalization, execute the revenue recognition and acknowledge. But not able to create the voucher.These projects are 3 old projects where the ‘valid until’ is in the past and the financial project status was initially closed but I reopened it since I got errors and tried to just book a zero value.Status in project navigator = closed.I also tried to delete the lines, but that is not possible either.All other lines with active projects are posted/closed. We cannot close the internal ledger because of this issue.What should I do to solve?  Thank you!

In the external file template for voucher file, it is not possible to import Currency Rate. The field is not available. Currency Rate type is available, but not the rate.If we import a voucher with foreign and local amounts, the exchange rate will be retrieve from the system. However, it will not match the transactions. In the example below, both the currency and local amount have been imported.100 EUR and 1100 SEK is imported on each line - Exchange rate 11,5135 was retrieved by the system - it should have been 11,0000 when you look at the transactions.Is something missing which need to be added so the exchange rate can be imported? Can we get IFS to automatically calculate the correct exchange rate, in case both amounts are supplied?Using cloud 23.1.6

Hi,we use external supplier invoice function (STDSIN1) to import somes supplier invoices.

Hi together,how can I account for the 5 step model required under IFRS 15 Revenue recognition in IFS 10?A possible clients asked about it whether IFS 10 has equivalent possibilities to acccount for IFRS 15 like external Enterprise Revenue Management softwares, e.g. Softrax or Workday.Does anybody know how the flow works in IFS 10 (maybe via a combination of Contract Management, Project Management and Financials?) or whether the client will better need an external software after his upgrade to IFS? Thank you!Mathias

Hello,We are in the middle of our implementation of IFS Cloud. We are currently on 24R1.How have other companies handled Vertex in their testing environments?  Our testing environment has the same Company ID as production (since we clone prod into testing), How can we make sure our invoices in the testing environment don't flow through to Vertex to the main Company ID with all our real invoices?Thanks,Nate

Does IFS offer any smarter process for reconciliation of Supplier Statements? Currently we will export individual supplier ledger into excel and match with the statement provided, manually checking for discrepancies or balance. Curious if anyone had a quicker/smarter process for these that can reduce the time spent on these?  

Hi Everyone, One of our customers is looking for a way to generate GL balances in a currency other than the Accounting and Parallel currencies. Does IFS offer any core functionality to support this requirement? Thank you!

Hello! I am trying to process an External customer payment in IFS Cloud, where the Invoice ID/Invoice Reference is not provided in the External Payment File. No matter which setup I use in the External Payment parameters, the system is not able to identify the Customer ID and create a Customer Payment on Account. It always creates a Parked Payment. Below is the Identifier setup for the used ‘External Customer Payment Parameters” The below is the External Payment file template I used, created from the MT940 system template. And finally, below is the sample file I created using the above external file template: Once this file loaded, the payment line (which does not have an Invoice reference) is always identified as a parked payment (Although I pass the customer ID ~ to be mapped to the field “IDENTITY_CODE” in the external file template)Could you kindly explain to me how the data setup should be done in order for IFS to identify Customer Payment on Accounts, and are there any specific c

Hi Everyone, Wondering if you can shed some light on next steps that should be taken to rectify this issue one of our users is experiencing. Here is the breakdown: -Posted supplier invoice in July using the “prelim post” this created a voucher for $26738.59. -In Aug when the invoice came in, he noticed the amount was different than what he posted, so he altered the gross amount to $26,672.11 then final posted the invoice, which then created another voucher and a discrepancy of $66.48 in the ledger. -He then cancelled that whole invoice and tried to do the manual supplier invoice over again (maybe used cancel and create?) using gross amount $26738.59 in hopes to change it to the correct amount, but cannot.  *When there is a prelim posted invoice, you cannot change the gross amount.I am not as strong on the accounting side, could someone assist on what steps we should take next?If you need more information I can provide! THANKS! 

Hi Community, can someone help me which settings have to be made that the system uses a name to try match with customer, please? Unfortunately, I have only the customers name who made a payment to us but no invoice number or similar. from the statement I know who sent the money and I would like to do a match by customer name. Is this possible and if yes, what setting is needed?  Thanks, Philipp   

Laser check is developed using IFS report designer and it aligns with the pre-printed check in Dev environment. But when the same rdl and xsd is moved to prod, the alignment is completely off.The “Payment Document → Supplier Check” settings are identical, printers are identical. So not sure what causes the mis alignment.Any suggestions?Thanks in advance  

Hi All,I have a clarification with regards to the Supplier Check Templates and would like to know the logic behind printing of 10 invoices per remittance if the Check Template ID is defined as LASER and 14 invoices when it is defined as NORMAL.  Also observed that, when a cheque is printed with the Template ID Laser, it generates 2 result keys if more than 10 invoices are  matched with a check.Example: Matching of 16 invoices to a check. Appreciate your support.Best RegardsRazan

Dear IFS R&D,we are using General Ledger tabular model and PBI reports on top of that (BS and IS). It works fine for Oriflame Group purposes, however we would like to use it for statutory purposes too. Since we are using IFS Finance globally, our Oriflame entities (approx. 70 companies) around the globe are using global (Oriflame Group) Chart of Accounts (CoA). The translation to entity local CoA is done via attribute on Code A (COALOC is the code of the attribute).Then 2 kind of statements (BS, P&L) are usually needed for global business:Group/global BS and IS - in our case based on codeA value, which is feasible to do with current tabular model Entity local BS and IS - based on Attribute value (COALOC) which is not feasible to reach with the current model.Therefore we propose to enhance tabular model with a possibility to see the hierarchy of BS and P&L (accounting structure and balances) by Attribute Value. To make this more flexible the code of the attribute used for th
