Hi everyone,In IFS, project budget control is enabled, but it appears that budget validation is performed at the cost-element level rather than the activity level.For example, an activity has an estimated cost of KWD 1,000 under BM-CIV, but a Project Supply Request using BM-MEC can still create commitments exceeding the total activity budget. My questions are:Is there a standard IFS configuration to enforce budget control at the activity level across all cost elements? If not, is a custom event or extension required to validate the total activity estimate when creating a Project Supply Request?Any guidance or experience with similar scenarios would be appreciated.Thanks!

My current installation has a single Print Agent installed on a Utility Server.  This works fine.  I would like to add a second Print Agent hosted on a second Utility Server to help with printing responsiveness and to serve as a backup.  To do this, I installed a second Print Agent and assigned it a unique "ID".  Additionally, the installation uses a second IAM Client entry using a unique "Client ID".  Each Print Agent's printer mappings are unique as well.  My installation is currently on IFS Cloud Release 24R2.The second Print Agent's service will not start successfully.  The logs show the following:From IFSPAService_%.log:[006] 10/12/2026 2:52:07 PM: Starting REST Service...[006] 10/12/2026 2:52:07 PM: ******************************************ServicePointManager.DefaultConnectionLimit :- 2******************************************[006] 10/12/2026 2:52:07 PM: ******************************************Modifying default connection limit to :- 2[006] 10/12/2026 2:52:07 PM: ************

I am attempting to configure IFS Facts for extraction to our data lake. My goal is to have the facts incrementally load on a per day basis so that the resulting parquet files are created daily and the files have the date appended to the file name. It looks like most of the Facts only have datetime columns. Is there a way to add a date column to the OOTB facts for partitioning? I currently only have access to the IFS cloud user interface. 

Hi, We're on IFS Cloud 25R1 (SU8). In this thread, a customer shared IFS's explanation of how Part Availability Controls behave: https://community.ifs.com/ideas/part-availability-control-set-on-a-location-is-not-carried-over-when-moving-into-qa-or-into-stock-66161 “Part Availability Controls follow a sort of hierarchy based on how they are applied:If applied via a default on an inventory location: The control is tied to the location, not the stock record. This means: Moving stock to a location without a default will remove the control Moving stock to a location with a default will apply that location’s control automatically If applied manually: The control is tied directly to the stock record and will move with it between locationsAccording to IFS, this behavior is intentional and designed to allow controls to adjust automatically based on location rules.” What I'd like to confirm: will a QC hold placed manually on stock keep that control when moved into a location with a different d

Hi,Is there any option to access SNOW cases through a REST API?Our team manages a large number of Unified Support cases, and we would like to automate some activities to make our work more efficient and process the cases faster.Has anyone implemented a similar integration or automation? If so, could you please share any available documentation or recommendations?Thank you.

Hello,I am looking for recommendations and best practices regarding software version tracking in IFS for manufactured products.We have a customer who produces devices (radars) where software is an integral part of the delivered product. The challenge is that Engineering often knows that software will be required, but the exact version is not known when the BOM is created. The final software version may only be decided during manufacturing, testing, or shortly before delivery.I would be interested to hear how other customers handle this scenario and which approach has proven most practical for maintaining software traceability throughout the product lifecycle.Thank you in advance for any recommendations and examples from real implementations.Pavel K.

Can someone kindly  share some light on the purpose of the above page in ifs cloud  .I cannot obtain any data in this page ,even when the advance invoice(AD) is paid posted  (created from a customer order and paid from a mixed payment) and not matched with the final . Once paid it is Converted to CUPIA .Is it the reason ?Thank you Udanee

Hi,We recently completed a clone of a customer environment running IFS Cloud version 25.2.7.Since the clone, users are being prompted to change their password when logging into the cloned environment, and in some cases are unable to log in until the password has been updated.I have noticed that, for the affected users, the IAM User setting Required User Actions is set to:UPDATE_PASSWORDThis appears to be affecting all users in the cloned environment.Does anyone know what could cause this required action to be applied during or after a clone? We would like to understand the cause so that we can avoid the same issue in future environment refreshes.

Hi All, We are testing MRP  before we jump to cloud 9. ( plan is to move from Apps 9 to Cloud)All looks good but we found some of the SO due dates in Apps9 and Cloud 9 varies,.Steps we took.mirror both base data  inv/shop orders /customer orders and master data in both environment  Apps9 and Colud. Run MRP with adding some new Customer orders (both identical in Apps 9 and Cloud) Check the MRP out put. 99% MRP out put same in both Apps 9and Cloud 1% Shop orders Due date  in App9 is much  than Cloud. ( some orders has 2 days some orders has 5 days etc)I am trying to look for a reason   why there is a difference ?check master data for all the affected SO  ( manufacturing lead time /Routing etc).. all same in both environment.No Luck So far , can anyone direct me to get the bottom of the issue int this case?

Does anyone know what ‘Microsoft Windows Azure’ section in the Apps 10 supported systems refers to? In terms of which part of our architecture. We don’t want to upgrade something that is not suitable etc.

Hello,We are running IFS Cloud 25R2SU07 with 120 users. The middel tier has 128 GB of memory, but only 25 GB is userd. We tried to downsize for cost reduction to 98 GB of memory, but IFS MT was not starting at all.Did you experience this kind of behaviour  in your Remote Cloud deployment ?Your feedback is welcome. 

Dear Team,I am new to IFS cloud deplyong the solution on-premises. Kindly recommend third-party tools that I can deploy to help me with managing user licenses and that can also be used on other platforms. Also if there are tools i can use for helping in administration and they are not part of the default delivery.

I am trying to model a process called pre-staging in IFS Cloud where a manufactured part is tested together with several other parts, including both manufactured and purchased parts. The test itself does not consume the components, but I need to document which components were used for which test, including serial numbers.I also need to record the fact that this test takes time and money, so it would be important to document the test effort and related cost as well. Ideally, the solution should capture both the technical traceability and the business aspect of the test execution.Is there a standard IFS Cloud solution for this requirement? If yes, which standard process or standard object should I use to record test usage, serial number traceability, and test cost/time documentation without building a custom solution?
