Hiwhen IFS release a service update, sometimes face some issues which have later been identified as a bug.Does IFS release a known bug list for each of the releases?thanksGary
Hi, When we try to set a task due date for a case, we always get this message: “task due date exceeds expected response date”.We can’t work out how to prevent this. It doesn’t stop us setting the date.Any thoughts?
(Cloud) Is there a function where there is routing operations logic? What we are seeing is when we run the Advanced Planning Board (ABP), is that our operations are not scheduling directly after each other once the previous operation is completed. For example,We have Tool T1473 that has 2 instances (1733 and 1744)Our Routing is setup 10 (Prep)- Uses Tool T147320 (Mix) - Uses Tool T147330 (Cure) - Uses Tool T147340 (Remove supports)- Uses Tool T147350 (Test) - No Tool usedWork Center is all the same (expect 50) with 1 Resource And what I’m seeing is that during scheduling, the tool jumps from one tool instance to another tool instance instead of keeping with the same instance. And then also it starts Op 40 days later after Op 30 is done. Is there a way to fix this? In other systems I’ve used, I’m used to seeing something like “Absolute Start after previous operation”, or “Delay start after operation” Or do we need to look at setting up the router differently? I was exploring the WC’s
Dear all,We have IFS10 and when MRP is executed, IFS removes all Shop Orders Requisitions with status “Proposal Created” even if it as Balance Id assigned.It seems that this is the standard behavior, but sometimes the planning person is doing the Batch Balancing and has several Shop Order requisitions already with Balance Id assigned to do the creation of the Shop Orders and left them from one day to another, during the night MRP executes and all Shop orders are removed and he needs to do all the balance again.Can someone tell me if in IFS Cloud the behavior is the same?Thanks & Regards,André Lima
We recently updated our IFS Apps 10 which has resulted in multiple quick report related issues. We were a bit behind on updates, so I can’t specifically say any single patch was the cause, but here are a couple issues I’m now seeing: Parameters get re-populated with their previous values when you re-run a report. After generating a quick report, opening up the same report pre-populates the previously used parameters in the dialog box. It is especially annoying when using a date parameter, since IFS will convert date parameters to a SQL TO_DATE(...) expression. This is after searching with the date 1/21/2026 once, then trying to view the report again Bind variables break SQL function calls. It seems like the way IFS is modifying the SQL to add bind variables for parameters breaks SQL function calls. I set up a very basic quick report example to demonstrate this:SELECT * FROM CUSTOMER_ORDERWHERE TRUNC(wanted_delivery_date) = TRUNC(&CUSTOMER_ORDER.WANTED_DELIVERY_DATE)Attempting to ge
Hi All,What is the normal process if a configuration needs changing on a customer order line where a pegged purchase order exists?Is it to cancel the line, recreate, then add the new requisition to the existing Purchase Order?Cheers,Jamie

Hi everyone, I am trying to import CONFIG_SALES_COMB_VALUES table into IFS via DMM. The table has SEQUENCE_NO column which is used to order different combination values. Records are ORDER BY SEQUENCE_NO ASC and they are imported from smallest to largest sequence. So, I would expect to see 8 records, and they should be displayed in correct order. However, only 6 records are displayed in IFS in different orders. Please help!
Hello IFS Community, we are using the pegging option in IFS where when a Customer Order is created and release, a shop order is created and linked as well, this is working fine, but a lot of times we need to make hundreds of changes to the Dates of the customer orders, we use the EDIT ALL and when the change gets replicated to the shop orders, we are getting the following questions below hundreds of times, one per line.. is there any way to default this to YES??? to goal is for my users to NOT have to click YES every time.. we are in 24R2 We are using the Edit All
In IFS resource planning I have defined a resource group as type Tool/Equipment group plus a connected resource representing a machine. I have defined that the equipment should be possible to use both in Maintenance and Project.I can report hours used on a work order but I cant find where/how I can report consumed hours for the same machine related to a project activity.My conclusion at the moment is the resources defined as Tools cant not be used in Project module to report hours – is that true?

Hello, I would like to receive information about changes in functionality Move Inventory Part. Between versions 23.1.2 -> 25.1.2 the condition for MOVE_INVENTORY_PART_SVC and PROCEDURE Create_Inventory_Part_In_Stock_Delivery___A restriction has been added:IF (Inventory_Part_In_Stock_API.Check_Exist(contract_, part_no_, configuration_id_, location_no_, lot_batch_no_, serial_no_, eng_chg_level_, waiv_dev_rej_no_, activity_seq_, handling_unit_id_)) THENIF(location_no_ != parent_location_no_ AND contract_ = parent_contract_) THENError_SYS.Record_General(lu_name_, 'CANNOTINSERTNEWLINE: The moving location :P1 already exists at the site :P2. Have to use the existing line when moving further quantities', location_no_, contract_); END IF; END IFWhy was this condition introduced? I would like to know the consequences of removing this condition? The message appears when a second identical offset line is added.
The positive pay configurations were set up and were working fine. All of a sudden, the positive pay files are not automatically downloading anymore. The files are still being created so they can export through the external file assistant but there is need for the automatic download. I have double checked settings, and everything looks okay. The ACH is set up as well and is triggering the automatic download just fine. Does anyone know why this would happen and how to fix it? Thanks!
We have a project we are trying to set to complete. When we Generate Unfinished Work Items, it says there is a Purchase Order Line still open. The Purchase order was part receipted and an Invoice was processed against this receipt. The remaining PO balance was then closed. We have tried Opening the PO and closing but it still won't let us complete the project.

Hi,I need some advice about a problem I am dealing with.My customer mainly works with welding and coating. Their project sites are often far away from the main warehouse. Because of this, I want to keep welding and coating stock at the customer’s project sites.My idea is to create remote locations and move stock from the warehouse to these locations using shipment orders.When the remote location is in the same country, this works well because I do not need commercial invoices with values.The problem happens when the remote location is in another country. In that case, customs clearance is needed, and a commercial invoice with values is required.I am not sure how to create a proforma invoice with values when the shipment order is created directly from Inventory. I noticed that the shipment has custom value fields, but they are empty. Do I need to use event logic to fill in these values?The PO–CO process does not work here because the project location belongs to the same company. I also
Would you kindly recommend the effect analysis, compatibility, and support issues for the Windows update from 2016 to 2025?Product Version: UPD27
Hi Community. We are using Apps 10, UPD9 and have run into an issue with repair orders and i am hoping that someone may know of a solution. If we use the “Create Repair Order Assistant” this process allows you to define a Serial Object, a Workshop and will set up the work tasks, material requisition and return lines required to receive a part, have it worked on in the workshop and then re-issued into the object structure. We are looking into the functionality of using the “Turn into Repair Order” which is available on the Prepare Work Order screen. This asks us for the repair workshop but doenst create any work tasks, materials or returns lines to facilitate the move. This function also takes the serial object and moves it directly to the workshop (without us returning and issuing) The issue we have identified with this, is that we can now not remove those parts from the Workshop object. We cannot issue them, return them, move them manually or place the object in facility from th
Hi All, [Sun Dec 11 15:40:33 GST 2022] - SEVERE: Failed to create namespace[Sun Dec 11 15:40:33 GST 2022] - SEVERE: Failed to install ifs-cloud.

Anyone knows how to fix this?
Need guidance on creating an automatic conditional field update for Business Opportunities with IFS Apps 10 and Aurena. We are not on Cloud yet. Example: When CLOSED_STATUS = LOST Update Stage to Stage_ID ‘90’ I’m confused on where to do this. Execute online SQL, workflow, something else. Please provide any guidance you can.
Is it possible get Lien Notices in IFS through the standard solution.
Hi All,» I have created an Application Server Task as below. This server task was working perfectly as expected, but recently it has stopped working. Possibly because the server task has changed to ‘Finished’ state. But this is a repeating task and the state has to be in ‘Waiting’ (As I read on some other knowledge articles in the community). Can you please let me know what can be the reason for this behaviour.?My scheduled job looks like below and as you can see I have set the ‘one_time_task’ flag to FALSE. Appreciate your inputs on this.Thank you.
Hello,When performing PO matching in IFS for a specific supplier, whose POs typically contain a large number of lines, in most cases a remaining quantity is left after using the Match All function.To correct this, we need to repeat the matching process so that the remaining lines become visible and can be matched, allowing the remaining quantity to be reduced to zero.In some cases, this workaround does not resolve the issue, and it becomes necessary to manually match the PO part number by part number.Anyone knows how to solve this? Or have the same problem? Thank you
The feature of allowing an operation quantity on a shop order to be less than the lot size of the shop order was introduced in Cloud 23R2. This is controlled on individual shop order operations by the new attribute Manual Operation Qty (Yes/No). This will be beneficial when a partial quantity needs to run through a one-off rework operation on the same manufacturing shop order.Manual Operation Qty can be set on Standard Operations, Routing Template Operations, and Routings of type Repair, Disassembly, Remanufacturing and Disposition.Why is this feature not available on Routings of type Manufacturing? A common use case is when testing is its own operation, but the full lot size will never need tested and reported as the completed quantity. The ability to set this in the Routing rather than manually on the manufacturing shop order would be an improvement.
