Hello,I would like to know whether there is a parameter in IFS that allows the configuration of a pattern for automatically generated Part Numbers when creating an Engineering Part.For example, if I enter only "test" in the Part Description field and leave the Part Number blank, IFS generates a Part Number such as 100025.Is it possible to configure this automatic numbering scheme so that generated Part Numbers follow a specific format, for example:MAT-000001 MAT-000002 MAT-000003or any other prefix + sequence pattern?If so, where can this be configured in IFS Cloud?Thank you for your help.

I’m using version 25R2. In ACL Designer I found a bug in my environment: when creating an ACL based on projection, the searching mechanism for entities, doesn’t work. Because only 50 entries are shown in alphabetical order in the entity list, I’m not able to select some entities. Does anyone have the same problem, or is it occurring only in my environment? Attached is a document ilustrating the issue.
We are moving from Apps10 to 25R2 and we have several searches based on Inventory UoM and Purchasing UoM. In Cloud, the UoM looks like it is part of the quantity fields but the contains option doesn’t work (example ~BX in Quantity or Purchase Quantity)Anyone have a recommendation on how to search or filter by UoM on this page?
So we have a situation where we are trying to adjust the On Hand Qty of a part that is sitting in an Arrival type location. Somehow after this part was received and subsequently moved out of the arrival location, a very small quantity than 1 (see 1st screenshot) remained in the Arrival location and now we cannot adjust it out. We have tried doing an inventory issue as well as a count per inventory part but the arrival location does not show up as a location we can do the adjustment for. We have tried backing out that quantity from the PO which was somehow cancelled, but we couldn’t do it. As you can see from the second screenshot, somehow IFS performed a move for 3029.xxxxxx. And I kinda why the On Hand Qty that was left behind is what it is. This part in Inventory Part had the Qty Calc Rounding set at 16. How do we get rid of the 0.0000000000000001 qty.
Hi all,Building a CTO proof of concept on IFS Cloud 25R1 and hitting an issue I can't pin down.SetupConfigurable part created, Configurable = Yes, linked to a Configuration Family Configuration Family has Configure By Category enabled, with 7 categories and characteristics assigned to each 12 characteristics: a mix of Discrete Option and Variable Value (numeric) 3 Configuration Formulas built and approved to Valid status Part Configuration Revision at revision 1, status Test, all 12 characteristics imported Configuration Structure exists but all rules removed for testing (in case of silent issue) No sales rules currently activeBehaviourLaunching Edit Configuration from an interim order works correctly. All category tabs render. I can enter values across the first three or four tabs but then the later categories have no chars. They can be added manually but then disappear. My first issue. Then If I remove configure by category I can enter all values (Discrete Options accept selection
25.1.7Using the DMM tool, if the standard unit in IFS for INCH is ‘in’, will a part migrate if it’s unit in the legacy system is ‘IN’? Does the legacy unit case affect if the part will/will not migrate?

Hi all,I've been working on a solution that brings invoice discounting and factoring into the IFS Accounts Payable process, and before taking it further I'd love to hear from others in the community about whether this is a pain point you're dealing with too.The short version of what it does: it lets you manage early-payment and supplier-financing arrangements directly within AP, so instead of handling these deals in spreadsheets or a separate portal, the discount terms, financing partner, and settlement flow live inside IFS alongside the invoice they relate to.A few things I've been trying to solve for:Capturing early-payment discount terms and applying them automatically when an invoice qualifies Keeping the financing/factoring arrangement tied to the original invoice for a clean audit trail Reducing the manual reconciliation that usually comes with these programs Giving finance teams visibility into which invoices are eligible and what the cash impact looks likeI'd really value your

We are implementing data purging in our Clevest Test environment and need clarificationon the recommended approach before moving to production:Current Setup:- Active Archiving feature- ETL Data Warehouse task running every 15 minutes (non-one-to-one mapping)- Web frontend purging feature availableQuestions:1. Should purging be configured via Archiving or ETL?2. What is the recommended sequence: Archive → Purge → ETL, or another order?3. How do we ensure all source data is captured in the Data Warehouse beforepurging from the source database?4. Does the system automatically archive before purging, or must we manuallycoordinate this?Thank you,

Hi All, We use PSO for manual scheduling. I have an issue with manually committing an activity to a resource in PSO. I want to commit an activity as shown below. 67 to Technician. The activity duration is less than the half of the shift time. When I dragged and drop an activity to the start of shift in the PSO gannt, the activity is in the begining of the shift. But still processing. Then after few seconds, the activity it is pushed towards after the break. Can you provide any reason for this behavior? We are using manual process type dataset since we want to schedule activities manually. TIA.

Can someone help me with what setting or data point is preventing my receipt reference from being saved?
As AI-related buttons and features are introduced into the standard IFS user interface, organizations that have not licensed IFS Copilot need a centralized way to disable or hide these features.Currently, the only alternative is to remove AI-related controls through page configurations. This approach creates several challenges:Administrative overhead to identify and remove AI controls across multiple pages. Ongoing maintenance whenever new AI features are introduced in future releases. Risk of inconsistent user experiences if some buttons are removed while others remain visible. Potential user confusion when AI features are visible but unavailable. Increased support and training effort to explain why certain buttons do not function.Requested Enhancement:Provide a tenant-wide or system-wide configuration setting that allows administrators to hide or disable all Copilot/AI-related buttons and menu options when the feature is not licensed or not intended for use.Business Value:Reduces adm
