IFS Cloud 23R1Does anyone else need to edit customer order header information after some order lines have been invoiced? These are custom fields we created in the header for industry specific data (well name, producer, etc). Our business model requires customer orders with over 1,000 lines. Sometime the header information changes after the early lines are invoiced. It does not affect the invoiced lines. Just the future lines. We cannot edit the data in the customer order header. It is an arduous task to cancel and re-enter a new order for the remaining lines. If you have run into a similar situation, how did you solve it? 

I am trying to find documents on how the systems Purchasing approvals work. I have been able to look fin information on the Authorization rule however i cannot access the information on Purchase Authorization Basic Data any links to documents would help. Thanks 

Does anyone possess training materials or documentation (APPS 10) on the process of Automatically matching Invoices with Purchase Orders?

Hello, we currently have an audit of the tax office in the house, this requires data from IFS. We have already exported 2 files from the set via the audit interface, but a 3rd file is missing (see attachment files.png). There is a similar topic, but the manual there is not given us the way how to receive the dtd-file: German GDPdU DTD File | IFS Community Did anyone have an idea how to export this missing file?

Hello - We are on IFS Cloud and we typically update GL vouchers on a weekly basis from the “Update GL Vouchers” screen.  Before moving to cloud we could select all the vouchers at once and it would take a 5-15 minutes, but they would all post and we could proceed.  Ever since being in Cloud, we now have to post transactions in batches of about 250 vouchers or the job will get locked up and we need to have our IT department kill the job and we start over in these smaller batches.  As a result we have to post transactions in many smaller batches over and over to get them all posted for a week.  It’s painful and inefficient.   Does anyone else face this?  Are we doing something wrong?  Why won’t the job ever finish if we just trigger them all at once?   Let me know if anyone has advice!

We’ve had a customer asking whether or not the length of the company ID field can be increased so they can accommodate their legacy intelligent company number.  Has anyone been asked this question and if so,what was your answer? Thanks!

I am working on a solution for Customer Direct Debit Rejections. We are creating a Direct Debit proposal which creates a Payment Order which then submits the file to the Bank. We also have to “acknowledge and create payment” as the bank treats the DD request as payment into the bank account, so that we can reconcile the bank with the cash transactions.On day 3, the bank sends us a list of rejected payment requests and treats these as a payment back out of the bank account.So I see two options,A Partial Rollback of the payment, just for the invoices that were rejected, where IFS moves the invoice back onto the customer ledger however it creates a Parked Payment for the cash transaction, which cannot be cancelled.A Full Rollback of the Payment which doesnt move it back to the Customer Payment Order stage, and will put all of the invoices back onto ledger even though they are paid, IFS then seems to expect we would reprocess the Direct Debit pr

IFS do not allow to change Revaluation Method to “Do Not Reverse” if  Revaluation Posting Method Account and Sub Code Part is not set to “Original”. What is the logic/reason  behind that? How can I  achieve the result of not reversing revaluation and posting it on separate accounts (not original)? 

When entering a Direct Cash Transaction in Mixed Payment, the system will only allow a max of 39 lines entered under Manual Transactions. Efter that, it is not possible to approve the payment.Is this a well-known limitation or a bug? Regards Brian Sandfeld 

We have a user who’s manual supplier invoice window is not showing the Invoice  Header fields.  We’ve tried clearing her personal profile but it did not help.  We also gave her IFS_full permission so we could compare all the Properties but all properties were showing as expected.  Even with the IFS_full permission the screen was not showing the header fields.It seems to be only an issue with the Manual Supplier Invoice window and only the single user.Has anyone experienced this?  Any suggestions would be appreciated

Good afternoon,  We created a task chain that includes Calculate Purchase Costs (for Latest purchase price) as a dynamic method. For the most part works ok, but for some parts the LPP calculation is completely off, and I cannot reconcile it.For ex: Supplier for Purchase Part price =18,991.78no Price List on Supplier for Purchase partno Purchase agreementPrice on last POs received 18,991.78 Only prices that were ever on POs are 17,749.00 and 18,991.78.Calculated LPP after the schedule is run 23,991.32 If I run the process manually, the LPP is updated to the correct price of 18,991.78.Again, for some parts works ok, for some doesn’t...all parts are set-up the same way: Purchased, Standard Cost, Cost per Part. Do you know of any cause that would make the scheduled

Hi, How do I set the Affect Line Posting as ‘Yes’ by default? Is there some setup to enable this? Thank you.RegardsRutuja

All, All other reports are uploading successfully to the FTP Server.    This seems to be only affecting invoices from a newly added company/site.   Is there a setting we are missing?   

Hello,Is there a way to configure the payment reminders to send out only based off of the due date? For example, we want to send payment reminders to customers only when an invoice on their account is 15 days old and again when their invoice is 30 days old. It seems like payment reminders in IFS include all invoices in their reminders and you cannot separate these… additionally you cannot send these based off of dude dates… Other than doing this with custom event actions, is there another way to set this up? Any and all advise would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,Bryan

Hi there,We will be using IFS cloud in the future. At the moment I’m at the Posting rules setup. We’d like an additional posting, with certain M40 combinations (RAW Material to Shop Order).The goal is to build the Work in Progress. I’d like to do this via Automatic Posting rules. We already now that there will be a lot of Postings, since everytime Material is taken at a shop order there will be two additional Postings.Has anyone experience with a lot of Postings generated by the Automatic Posting rules regarding performance? I now a lot is a bad definition so i’d say 500-600 postings a day.Thanks for the replies.

The France VAT CA-3 tax template GFR001 is reversing the sign on template lines A4 and B2, imports and intracommunity acquisitions and is displaying a negative amount on the report.  The template cannot be copied and the template filed control cannot be changed.  Does anyone know of a solution for this?We are using APPS 10 with France localization. 

Apps10 UPD9 - I have created an event to email customer reminders.  I have the AR CUSTOMER CONTACT setup on the payment tab of the customer.  In the body of the event I have &PDF_PARAMETER1 so I can test to make sure it is working.  There is no value that shows for the parameter.  Any ideas on what is wrong.   

Hello, We currently would like to set up customer reminders but we are facing an issue related to the reminder levels per invoice. We have the following set up for a reminder template: When attempting to run a reminder proposal and acknowledging this for a test customer with invoices that should fit into reminder levels 0,1,2, and 4, we get all invoices listed on a reminder, which is what is expected. The only issue is that these reminder levels don’t seem to be automatically updated per invoice. I created the reminder template with the reminder levels but the reminder level values per invoice didn’t change, I had to update them myself even though some were 70+ days old. Additionally, when running the reminder proposal again for reminder levels 0,1, and 3 (in our AR selection template), we only r

We have automatic invoice interpretation which reads and autopopulates values when a supplier invoice shows up in IFS.If we go to Invoice Line Information and change the information here, it does not follow to the Invoice Tax Information-page. We constantly have to fill in the same information twice for all invoices that come in with the status loaded, which is an unnecessary time-driver. Is there any function to ensure that the information from Invoice Line Information follows to the Invoice Tax Information page? (picture of invoice tax information-page from another invoice)

Hi all, Wonder if you can help with an issue we are having with the inter-company invoicing.We had an order for our Spanish site from a customer in Spain. The part was supplied by our UK site, sent over and then the accompanying invoice was sent from the UK to our Spanish site via the EDI messaging.The below screenshot confirms that the invoice was sent…. This is all well and good, but we can’t seem to find said invoice in the Supplier Invoice Analysis for our Spanish site…. Are there any settings we are missing or something we have overlooked?? Many thanks

Hello, I am struggling to process a Multi-Company Allocation to create an Instant Invoice. I’m not sure what I am missing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.I have created the Sales Object and the Customer is properly setup.There’s no data when I run calculation. And I get the below error when I try to create the Invoice: Error message when trying to create invoice from MC Allocation  No data in view calculation. If instead of Instant Invoice I choose CA Voucher, then I have no issues is executing the MC Allocation. The issue is just when I try to do it via Instant Invoice.

We are using IFS Cloud version 23R1. On the Manufacturing Labor Class screen, and also on the Manufacturing Labor Classes screen, there is a field called Cost Center Id. See below:  All the values have gone. It used to have options in the drop-down list of available values but the list is empty now. The values we’d like to use are in the system on another screen called Code String Completion. See below: Does anybody know why these codes aren’t showing as options in the Cost Center Id drop down li
