Hello,I noticed that Engineering part transfer actions do not check wether the engineering revision already exist on destination site until a first transfer is made.I’m having an issue with a customer where inventory parts & engineering part revisions have been created via data migration. However, now each time a une an existing part revision in a new engineering structure, when I transfer the top code it creates revisions for all the components … This means the setup of Product structures (issue to location, conumption type, alternatives,  ...) needs to be made every single time a component is transferred for the first time, for all the parts already in destination site. I tried to tag the transfer actions as ‘transferred’ but couldn’t reach my goal. => Has everyone encountered such an issue ? How could this be fixed ?Thank you,//Pierre 

HAs anyone used the Machine Learning capability in IFS Cloud or can point me to more information about it? I’m interested in how it can be used to manage PM Actions for automated Work Order generation and Work Order management and scheduling. Thank you!

Hello, Our company are looking into offering our employees the option to buy and sell holidays and were thinking of how we are going to manage this. We use IFS for HR and Payroll, however we are new to the system and unsure if this is something it can manage.  Any advise/feedback would be appreciated. 

Hello everyone,When reviewing past activities in PSO, we noticed that the displayed travel time is shown from the resource to the activity - instead of from one activity to the next, as expected.Do you have any idea why this might be?Could it be because the activities have been allocated (and not committed) and are in the past?Thank you!

Go to Any Shipment ID and go to Available Lines sub window.Available Lines tab is taking some time to load and after a while it is getting timeout notification as attached below. Has anybody noticed any workaround for this? 

We are currently in a dialog on a case with Support for improvements, but I’m curious about response times for other cloud customers in GL Balance Analysis/GL Balance Analysis Basic.Queries like the example below returns 84 accounts + balance in about 5 seconds when there are about 60 000 records in ACCOUNTING_BALANCE_TAB for the filter. A similar search for other accounts use about 2 ½ minute to return 33 accounts +balance for about 1,2 millions records for the filter in the same table.Our Size on Disk represent the amount of data since Go-live in April 2023.I’m looking forward to get more knowledge about your experienced response times for similar queries, your size on disk and if you have enabled the In-Memory Acceleration Package.Example search for year, period(s) and account(s)Size on disk from our test environment - about 700 MB more in PROD today 

Functional Scenario:Customer has a sales contract linked to a project. Sends several AFPs. After a specific point a final invoice which has the complete amount on it and also shows the deduction of the already paid AFPs is created. Problems/Issues:Sales Contract does not provide any kind of “Final Invoice” it is always just the project invoice based on AFP and that is based on the certified/confirmed amount. When matching the payment in advance/payment on account with the AFP. IFS automatically creates an invoice. This leads to the issue that we are not able to offset the previously paid AFPs against our complete “final invoice”. We are currently not able to have a process with advance payments via AFP and a final invoice that shows/includes the previously paid AFPs. Are we missing anything here or is such a scenario just currently not designed/considered in the sales-contracts yet?   Kind regardsAlex

We have a need to search the content of documents for certain document classes. Is there any plan in Docman to build AI service to ask questions against docman documents.

I’m currently experiencing issues when pulling my GL Actuals into my Planning Entry when completing a forecast for the remaining year.I use the standard functionality to complete this task, however, I get the following error message.This will be across multiple companies, The message does not allow me to determine which items have uploaded and which haven’t. I don’t have a mechanism to allow a quick review and is very labour intensive.Has anyone experienced the same issue, or have a better process to complete this?Any help would be much appreciated.Thanks

Five vulnerabilities have been discovered within the Ingress NGINX Controller for Kubernetes on the 24th of March 2025. NGINX Ingress Controller is a tool used in CE Kubernetes environments to manage and route external traffic to services within the cluster.

Hi all,I am currently exploring best practices for utilizing the Internal_Part_Issue_Pub table within the context of Demand Planning. I’ve noticed that the table includes multiple transaction types, and I understand that the appropriate configuration often depends on specific business practices.That said, is there any recommended or commonly used Source_Ref_Type or Transaction Code for standard Demand Planner base flow configurations?Any insights or guidance would be greatly appreciated. There is the where condition used in this view. SELECT tran.part_no                                                                                                part_no,       tran.contract                                                                                               contract,       tran.date_time_created                                                                                      date_issued,       Decode(tran.direction,'+',tran.quantity * -1,'-',tran.quantity, 0)

Hi All,When a customer order line is connected to a staged billing profile and once a stage has been invoiced, it is not possible to cancel the CO line even after creating a credit invoice. When trying to cancel the order line, the system raises an error that 'The order line may not be cancelled when invoiced stages exist'.I have created the following Idea for the above issue.Please share if anyone knows a workaround.

Can I also use these two SQL statements as a combination.I need the issues for sales orders plus inventory issues. Thanks for your help.Henning

Hi all,Users should not have access to the document revision page, but only to the document detail page here: However, the problem is that the link here in the document attachments always refers to the document revision page. Is it possible to set/change this somewhere so that this link button goes to the document details page? Thanks, Mike

With IFS Cloud, clients can access the system without needing a Windows-based device, which is a great flexibility benefit. However, for developers, the use of Developer Studio still requires a Windows operating system. This means it cannot be used on macOS devices.Given that Developer Studio is based on NetBeans, which is a cross-platform application, it shouldn't be technically difficult for IFS to provide a macOS-compatible version. Offering such support would significantly enhance the development experience and flexibility for Mac users.Is there any plan or roadmap for this?

Where can we get a listing of transaction codes from the ERPs to allow us to analyze which transactions we would consider “manual journal entries”. Are these codes subject to stricter control within and outside of the IFS system? Also does IFS APPS10 have the capability to implement a “park/post” feature that enforces segregation of duties for manual journal entry prep and post? Thank you,

Hi,I am currently working on an Avalara tax integration for a Canadian customer.Does anyone have experience with Avalara Tax integration for a Canadian company? Your insights will be most valuable when sorting the questions below. 🙂The correct tax amounts are in the application message for the Avalara tax return. However, IFS fetches only PST/HST/QST taxes, and the GST amount is dropped from the Customer Invoice tax line. 1. Is there any special IFS Application setting for a Canadian delivery address?2. Why are GST/TPS taxes not fetched in Customer Invoice lines?3. Why does the Application receive the country as the jurisdiction code for the GST/TPS tax line?4. Is there any special configuration on the Avalara side for Canadian tax? SS - Application Message SS - Customer Invoice   Thank you

Hello,I am not sure why our task.schedule_value is changing from 20000 to 38000. BR 99 is set up to update task.schedule_value to 20000.Response Code value is blank. 

We have just upgraded to 24R2 and I’m trying to change the default value for a customer order to the identifier reference from the Customer. I have the Value in the Site set to this: ${CustomerInfo.IdentifierReference} but I’m unsure how to filter to the particular customer selected by the user.

Hi All,I have been exploring the new Contractor Management solution in 25R1 for Request Tasks. I like the idea of creating the PO Lines based on actual reported items like time reported of the contractor. There are multiple customers who have modifications for that in the Work Order solution.But I am supprised to see that in the Release Notes there is a restriction. Which makes it not possible to send the Request Task to the mobile of the Subcontractor Resource...Mobile Work Order for Service Contractor Resources. It is not possible to utilize Mobile Work Order for Service Contractor Resources. Any Request Work Task that is assigned to a Service Contractor cannot be transferred to mobile. I am looking for the reason why this restriction is build in?I have customers who wants to have both their own employees and subcontractors to work with the same mobile Service MWO Solution. But that is not possible for subcontracted orders, as described in the Release Restrictions and by my own test

Lesson I have learned:If you need a REST API with any SQL statement, you can use either the Query Designer or Quick Report.Example of using REST API with Quick Report:https://MY_SERVER/main/ifsapplications/projection/v1/QuickReports.svc/QuickReport_xxxxxx(my_parameter='1234')) Note: xxxxxx is a randomly generated number when we create a Quick Report.Remember to use an underscore in QuickReport_xxxxxx.
