■BackgroundI understand that, when using DDMRP, users need to define their own values for the Lead Time Category and Variability Category.To optimize inventory levels, we would like to set appropriate values for the Lead Time Category and Variability Category. What criteria or methodology should be used to determine these values?For context, we are considering using DDMRP for the procurement of purchased items, rather than for manufactured items.■QuestionWhen using DDMRP, how should the Lead Time Category and Variability Category be determined? Please advise based on best practices adopted by other companies.Parameters in scopeLead Time Category:1.Red Lead Time Factor (%)2.Green Lead Time Factor (%)Variability Category:3. Variability Factor (%)To reiterate, as part of our ongoing DDMRP operations, I would like to review parameters 1, 2, and 3 periodically and maintain them at appropriate levels.Could you please advise what criteria or methodology should be used to calculate the appropr

The Purchase Order Line projection has an Invoiced Qty.  That is not a column in the underlying table Purchase_Order_Line_All.  In 10, I was able to view the system information that showed the call being made to get that information.  How can I find out where Cloud is getting that information for the projection?

In Apps 10, which mechanism allows the Planned Delivery Date to remain fixed while the Planned Receipt Date is recalculated forward when the Mode of Delivery is changed on the PO line?

Hi,We are looking to use Apps10 to send a scheduled REST GET call to a third-party system then transform that data and create a record in IFS (Expense Sheet would be one example)Does anyone have any real-world experience of this. Not interested in AI generated responses - I can get enough of those myself. Thanks, Matt

Hello, How should the depreciation method be configured in version 8 to comply with the following requirements?This means that the asset’s value is depreciated in equal annual installments (20% per year).The method is called "linear depreciation" (ammortamento lineare).If the asset is put into use during the year, a reduced rate is often applied in the first year—typically 50% of the standard rate (i.e., 10% in the first year, then 20% in subsequent years).Depreciation starts from the year the asset is activated, not from the purchase date.According to Article 2426 of the Italian Civil Code, the value of assets must be depreciated systematically, taking into account their useful life.brocardiUnder Article 102 of the Italian Tax Code (TUIR), the depreciation rate must be applied starting from the year the asset is put into use. In the first year, the depreciation rate must be reduced by 50% (e.g., 10% instead of 20%). Thanks Ili

We would like to have the printing of an Instant Invoice (Print Invoice) automatically attaching the generated PDF to the invoice from which it originates.This request doesn't seem all that specific to us, and I'm sure that we must not be the only customer to ask for this.It seems logical to me that the PDF generated and sent to the customer should at the same time be attached to its original invoice object. This way, we can retrieve the original from the day of printing at any time, rather than having to "Reprint" it when auditors, for example, asks to see the PDF invoices issued by the company.Thanks for any feedback you might have

Hi all,Does anyone know how I can fix the translations after creating a different context and reordering the nodes?After I reorder the nodes, IFS no longer translates the terms correctly, even after refresh the cache.The translations under Text Translations are correct, but they don’t seem to be applied when using a context with reordered nodes.Has anyone experienced this issue or knows how to fix it?Thanks! Global context without any change in navegatior design. 

Are there modules or processes in IFS cloud for continuous NPS or other type of customer satisfaction surveying? Currently we have been using an external survey tool, which is triggered to send a customer a short survey, by an order being marked Invoiced in IFS. The integration is not the best and we have had problems throughout the course of the surveying. Desperate need to find a better way.

We are working on an effort to implement the India GET Functionality. To implement this new functionality we need to create a new Company/Site. We will be migrating from one site to another. As we work through all transactions, we have an issue regarding our open inter-site Purchase Orders > Customer Orders.Specifically:We have Intersite Purchase Orders (our India site 1300) to one of our internal Supplier: 10 where the connected Customer Order is on Site 10.When we migrate the Purchase Orders (from site 1300 to the new site with India Get: 1301) we are looking for a way/best practice to reconnect them to the existing Customer Orders in Site 10.Product Version: 24.2.6We have close to 4,000 open Inter-Site PO Lines that will need to be migrated to the new site. And are looking for the best way to update all of them in mass.

Hello,I currently have the “Poland Country Solution” documentation for IFS Applications 10 Update 28.Is a similar or updated document available for Update 30? If so, could you please let me know where I can find or download it?Thank you in advance.

Hi,I’m experiencing the following issue with IFS Cloud 25R2 SU3 and was wondering if anyone else has come across something similar.What I have done was:1. Create a Query using the Query Designer window.2. Add more than 16 columns to the view.3. Save and publish the Query.4. Create a Quick Sight report based on the Query.5. Open Report Studio and start creating a layout for the report.6. The JSONDataSource is not visible/available. However:7. Go back to the Query created in Query Designer.8. Remove the additional columns so that the Query contains a maximum of 16 columns.9. Save and synchronize the Query.10. Go back to the QuickSight report and open Report Studio again.11. The JSONDataSource is now visible and available. Has anyone experienced a similar issue?Do you know whether this is a bug, a limitation of the tool, or an expected behavior?Or am I missing a configuration or step somewhere?Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance!Chathuri 

Hi Community, We are trying to add a media item on an Order report and want to change the aspect ratio so it does not span across half the report page. These images are picked from the Work Task media attachments and there could me multiple media attached. We have printed these images on the report however we don’t find the option to control the aspect ratio. Is there an option that we could use?When we click on the media item, the properties pane does not show any controls for Aspect Ratio, we tried to use the Height property but that does not work as expected. Thanks and regards,Obaid.

We are on IFS cloud 25R2 and have turned the parameter “Create Part Revision for each Eng Revision” to “NO” on Part Transfer Template screen.Why the system never wants to update the first part revision even if it is with a tentative structure and not in effect part revision 1 ?For a purchased part (with empty structures), the fact that a second part revision is systematically created when transfering eng part rev is a problem.Actually, with 2 differents part revisions for a purchased part, you have to make a distinct counting on each rev when inventorying.If we have decided to manage a technical modification of a purchased part by usage of a new revision instead of a new part number, this is really because we don’t want to make a different stock management on this part..Thank you for the explanation about the specific behaviour of 1st revision 

We are receiving the following error when attempting to test print a Custom Label from the Shop Order Workbench in DEV: The report definition has been configured, and the layout has been successfully imported. What is the recommended approach to resolve this issue?

Hi,I’m currently working on an integration to automate the manual supplier invoice creation process. I’m using PL/SQL routing to send an XML to IFS via the SOAP Gateway (https://<server>:<port>/int/soapgateway).After posting the request, I receive a response containing an Application Message ID, for example:Message 1393925 has been posted to queue IN1My requirement is to retrieve the processing response or status from the Application Message using a GET method, by passing the Application Message ID through the SOAP Gateway.Does anyone know if this is possible? If so, could you please share the appropriate endpoint or method to retrieve the response using the Application Message ID?

Hi Experts,I have 3 queries, could some one help at the earliest:Resource Cost calculation in PSO. Any specific document or formula is there which tell me the resource cost. How the resource cost can be viewed in PSO. Base value we can see but where we can find the Cost. Last one, if my activity is of 2 hrs which is completing in the normal shift (8:00 AM - 4:30 PM). If the travel back to home is 30 mins from the last task and is in the Over Time (4:30 PM - 8:30 PM) does PSO calculate the travel cost for return with respect to Cost/Hr or Cost/Hr(OT) ?Your timely response is much more appreciated. Regards, 

In applications 10 I have soap capabilities to retrieve the customer price for an item.   I am looking for the Rest function that I can pass a customer, currency, part list and retrieve the price for the customer. 

This I think is one of those questions that will be hard to solve, hopefully I’m wrong. I have been using the Data Migration Manager for some time now, it works well(ish) for (al)most all containers… sometimes… well… nobody’s perfect 😁One area where I have struggle particularly is the Additional Deployment Processes, more specifically, the Post Deployment actions that update statuses.I have seen one example created by IFS R&D which is the one that update statuses for CUSTOMER_ORDER entities. It is normally included in DMM templates and it does precisely what it should do.Updating Customer Order States in DMM: The “Happy” path!I needed to do something similar for PROJECTS.I thought updating STATES for other entities (such as PROJECTS) using this example as reference, should land me where I needed to be, so after finding what code behind gets executed when updating the STATE of Project I got myself into the task of creating a similar Additional Deployment Process in DMM, only to mov

Hi,We are looking for guidance on the recommended approach for managing historical Request and Request Task data in IFS Cloud 25R2.Specifically:Is there an out-of-the-box archive mechanism available for Request and Request Task entities? Can completed and cancelled Request Tasks be archived after a configurable retention period? Is there a supported process to permanently purge archived Request and Request Task data, including any dependent or related records? Are there any recommended best practices for managing historical Request and Request Task data in production environments?If anyone has implemented a scheduled archive/purge process or can point to relevant documentation, examples would be greatly appreciated.Thank you. 

We recently deployed the IFS Cloud 25R2 upgrade to our environment. Post-deployment, we noticed that our default mail sender settings in IFS Connect (MAIL_SENDER1) appear to have changed or reset.I want to understand the standard behavior of the 25R2 installer regarding IFS Connect sender templates:Does the 25R2 deployment automatically restore MAIL_SENDER1 back to its default core values?What is the best practice to ensure our custom mail sender parameters are not affected during major release deployments?Any insights from anyone who has experienced this during their 25R2 upgrade would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, In our Customer-Configuration we only use the General Information, the Address (location) and the Communication Method.We don’t use invoice/sales/Message/Contact/etc.With this minimum we can create a request or a recurring service for this customer. Our goal: Prevent the usage of this customer and his address (location configuration) in the request and recurring service. How can we mark this customer for not beeing used? even technically prevent the usage? Are there any better possibilities than to rename the customer and the address? Best RegardsMichael

I feel like I am missing something.  I have created this data source, almost a copy of one of the in the box data sources.  But when I try to go to the Element Designer the Datasource is not in this list (I’ve typed the whole thing out to show it isn’t in the drop down) If I go to a permission set that I am in and click on the “Granted Lobby Data Sources” nothing shows up either. The really weird thing, is I can see the Datasource Designer I created on my initial browser tab.  But if I open up a new tab and go to it, it is not there.  I am looking through the documentation to see what I am missing and just can’t seem to find anything.  Anyone have any ideas?
