Hello.My understanding isthat the Promised Delivery Date on a Customer Order Line should stay as is if the order/line is confirmed.I have created this order and confirmed.I then change the target date to 08/06/2026, I expected the Planned Delivery Date and the Planned Ship Date to align, however expected the Promised Delivery Date to be kept. Is my understanding wrong?
We are using MRO in IFS Apps 10, mainly for Component Repair Orders and Complex Assembly.We are facing an issue where costs for Component Repair Orders (Customer-Owned parts) are correctly accumulated in WIP, but are not transferred to COGS when the related Customer Order is invoiced. As a result, our finance team has to manually move WIP to COGS.Current ProcessOur standard process is: Create Component Repair Order (Customer-Owned part). Book material and labor → costs are posted to WIP (working correctly). Create Sales Line manually in Component Repair Order. From CRO, use RMB option “Create Customer Order” and transfer sales lines. System automatically creates Customer Order and Customer Order Line. Invoice is posted and paid. Observed IssueWhen the Customer Order Line is created automatically, the ownership is always set to Company-Owned, even when the Component Repair Order is Customer-Owned.We have verified: Demand Code = Component Repair Order Ref1 = Component Repair
Hello,In earlier versions of IFS, it would prevent you from cancelling or incompleting work assignments in IFS, IF they existed on the engineers device (IFS MWO). This logic has been changed in IFS Cloud, and the functionality is now possible. However this then creates more issues in that we receive lots of failed transactions on a daily basis due to back office cancelling assignments when they are still on the IFS MWO app. Since IFS are unlikely to reverse the logic to enforce the validation again, I was wondering if anyone can provide guidance on the logic required to create our own custom event to prevent cancellation/incomplete in IFS Cloud, IF the assignment is still transferred to the engineer? ThanksShaun
Hello,I am in production at my client's site. He upgraded yesterday to version 25R1, and I am getting this error message when receiving an OF. Have you ever seen this message before? ORA-01400: impossible d'insérer NULL dans (\"IFSAPP\".\"SO_COST_DISTRIBUTION_TMP\".\"COST_BUCKET_PUBLIC_TYPE\")"}]
What are the challenges in 25R1?
Hello,I have the following requirement for a customer, and need some help! If a Non-Inv Purchase Part is entered in the PR line, the Part Description field should cleared out or left empty so that the user can enter a new description and then be able to save the line. There’s a condition to consider, if Inventory Part = true, nothing should happen, the line must save as normal. If Inventory Part = false, the Part Description should be cleared out as previously mentioned. I created the following BPA workflow. I added a API Read task to read the Description, followed by a Script task to set the Description field as null, finally an API task to update the field. However, it’s not working. When deployed, I added a PR line, entered a Non-Inv PP and it shows an error saying the Description can’t be null, but the Description field isn’t cleared out. It shows the original value. Has anyone managed to clear or leave a mandatory field empty?

We observed, in Cloud 24R2, that in GL Voucher Rows Analysis, the code part fields are all clustered together and it would not be possible to insert a different column between them and have the columns exported to Excel that way. We can, for example, use Column Chooser to put Amount after Cost Center, but when exporting the results to Excel, this column ordering is not enforced, instead all code string columns are in order together. Furthermore, we could not place fields in between the code string fields within page designer, as code string is it’s own group. Are we missing something, or is not possible to export results from here with columns in between the code string columns?

I have a customer that has a requirement to send detailed cost information of their parts manufactured in Mexico to the Mexican Government. To do this, they use an excel spreadsheet that is used to load into a customs broker system called Aranxel. The standard report, “Cost Build-Up Report - High Detail”, contains all the necessary information but it is meant to be printed; not into Excel. The “Structure Multi-Level” display shows all the breakdowns but it does not include the cost bucket breakdowns. The “Part Routing Costs per Cost Bucket” display does not explode through the product structure. Does anyone know of a standard query that can exreact multilevel cost information by bucket? Alternatively, has anyone developed such a query? Here is the format used currently:

Hello,When working in a team on the shop floor workbench and an operation is started there is the option to select team members. With this option I would expect the shop floor clockings would only be created for those team members. But when Im checking the shop floor clockings after stopping the production, the clockings are created for all team members. Am Im missing a setting or can this be a bug? Kind regards, Willem

Hi,We are using IFS Cloud notify me application, we found one issue regarding data synchorization. In IFS Cloud we don’t have open purchase requisiton lines to be approved, but in Notify me some authorized purchase order lines are still being showed. I reinstalled Notify me application and refresh the cache but both didn’t work.Anyone has the same experience and how can I fix the issue?Thanks.
In IFS9 , we used a custom field when creating Business Activity. Sales reps could choose from a drop down list one or several labels (e.g. different product groups or important trends such as COVID). This helped management and R&D to easily find relevant information from the Business Activities withouth manually going through hundreds of activities. In IFS9 this custom field was searchable with filter function. In CLOUD, the filter function have been removed for custom fields in Business Activities. Was this itentional? Is the function returning?
We are using IFS Applications 10 with Approval Templates for Purchase Orders. I would like to understand how an approval decision can be revoked once an approver has already taken a decision.In our approval setup, there are multiple approval steps. When one of the approvers rejects the Purchase Order, we correct the issue or query in the PO and attempt to resend the approval. Although the system allows us to add another approval step, the previously rejected step remains locked, and the same approver is not allowed to take a new decision.Could you please clarify whether it is possible to fully restart the approval process after a rejection so that all approvers, including the one who rejected earlier, can approve again? If this is not possible, please confirm the standard and recommended approach in IFS Applications 10 for handling such scenarios.
