Hello Team,I have a requirement to email the "Payroll Preview" ( Report Def: PAYROLL_PREVIEW_REP) payment report for employees using IFS Apps 9.

Hi all, I am trying to generate automatic emails via event&actions for the new Onboarding Process on Aurena. IFS already offers some standard events. Hence, I just created new actions with the given placeholders.  example action:  On Aurena I assigned the Onboarding Program with the tasks to the employees below. Some tasks are due and some are not.

Hi, I have been having a few issues with a report built in business reporter using the snap shot date tool.The data the report had been spitting out didn't seem to be matching the data, its taken bit of digging as i never set up the snap shot periods or calendars but when i looked my predecessor had set up the snap shot dates in advance of the snapshot date. So even though the snapshot date was supposed to be 1st July 2022 it was picking up data relevant to October 2021 as that was when the snap shot was generated, Am i right in thinking that the action of creating the snap shot date has to happen after that time so that it then picks up the relevant data. I just want to check my understanding of the functionality is correct. 

I’m interested to hear from any companies in the UK who manage subcontractors, off-payroll workers who are considered within IR35, inside of IFS.For example, do you allow them access to IFS for timesheet entry and how do you manage their user/employee files within IFS so as to meet UK tax rules.Any examples of where you are doing this currently would really help.Thanks in advance

The National Insurance threshold will increase on 1st September 2022. Our Payroll department would like some guidance notes or screenshots if available, on where in IFS, the NI value will need changing?i.e. Is i changed in 1 screen or multiple screens?In the below image you can see the NI threshold My question is;  Where else is this value held and/or changed, because the payroll team do not know!This is usually part of the annual payroll update from IFS, as you can see below the valid from date is “06/04/22”.Thanks

We got some faults captured in Absence registration log.They look like this: “ORA-20110: AbsenceRegistration.ABSIEMP: Absence must be in interval, when employee is employed!” I think it relates to the employee did not have an employment record. Now after fixing that how do we clean these entries in the log? 

When i run the terminate employee wizard the employee will only be terminated in the main company. Hereafter i have manually to change “valid to” date in the linked MCPR companies. Is there a autimatic way to terminate MCPR-linked employee? See today’s function below:Today i have connected the employee to several other companies. This connection to MCPR is nothing my terminate employee wizard account for.  Is it possible just to delete the MCPR-linke from here? So i just delete all lines under the tab - “MPCR Linked Employees”? Then the employee whould be terminated in all companies? Or is there a automatic way to do this?

HI, I’m hoping to find someone who can help.We are on IFS Apps 9 UPD17 and are using the UK Payroll localisation.We have a situation where an employee has overpaid National Insurance contributions due to the way the first month’s pay was processed. If it had been processed correctly they wouldn’t have been required to pay any contributions. Can anybody help with how to process a refund to the employee that will also correct the NI record with HMRC?Thanks

Hi all,We're working on HR Assistant Configuration with IFSAPP10 in Aurena to create model's configuration. We found the New Employment Configuration (with the screen below)  But we don’t find the “Terminate Employment Configuration” and/or how to use it in Aurena. In IEE, we can use “HR Assistant Configuration” screen to configure a model and tu user him in the Terminate Employment with the “Select Configuration” field.  In Aurena, the “Select Configuration” field doesn’t exist in the “Terminate Employment” workflow. 

Could someone help me on identifying which screens in IFS Apps 10 we need to update the change (Increase or decrease) in the National Insurance Threshold?  I found one screen called “Regulation Details”.  My question was; Where else is this value held and/or changed? This is usually part of the annual payroll update from IFS.  Thank you!!!

Hi All,We have a very strange case where data not loaded / very slow loading in “Terminate Employment Logs” just for 1 user. No impact on other users.This user always used to manage this data thru this window so it is not a data access or permission issue . I believe it is related to locking record issue because it is keep turning and waiting  …If I restrict the search just for 1 record , it will end up populating this record after 3-4 min … any suggestions will be much appreciated

Hi,As we report time on the Work order, the hours is shown in ‘My time card’ but in the ‘Not completed’ status, even if the schedule hours is met. We have to press: generate normal hours for job hours, for the hours to show in the Results tab.What is the purpose of this option?After pressing the button ‘Generate Normal hours for Job hours’, Results are shown, but this seems to be an additional step of no use.
