Hello everyone,I would like to inquire about the limitations of Excel reports. What are the possible causes that prevent an Excel report from being successfully previewed in the Order Report when displaying a large volume of data?Currently, I am encountering an issue when attempting to preview data sets containing more than 1,000 rows and over 30 columns.An error message is displayed when I try to preview the report.
Hi All, we are trying to find an automatic way to handle tasks/steps for multiple objects.Some info taken from Community threads. It is possible to automatically generate PM actions for multiple objects via PM Programs.. PM Program will create 1 PM Action for each object with same tasks and steps; from this to create only 1 work order I will need to go in each PM Action created, flag 1 by 1 “merge” feature and it will create 1 WO with 1 Task per Object...is it correct? If it is so we still need to perform manual steps each time PM actions will be created and then this solution will not be fully automatic. We can duplicate worksteps for each object we would like to apply maintenance activities but there is not way to automatically add all the objects desidered (unless you’ll perform a migration job each time). If my assumptions are correct, is it possible there is no way to handle multiple objects activity in IFS in a totally automated way? Or at list perform just a flag (as it is in PM
Hi All,It is possible to incomplete or cancel an assignment sent to mobile from Backoffice. Additionally, is there anyway to changing the status to other way? Any tricks?Use Case: Technician is working in offline area and started work. Due to the SLA requirement, the status of the work task should be changed to a status such as “On Route” or “Work Started”. However, since the technician is offline, the status is not updated simultaneously. The Backoffice cannot update the status since it is downloaded to the mobile.Does anyone have an idea on how to handle a situation like this? TIA.

IFS Cloud 25R1 On a Person Resource Group Requirements tab, I have specified the Requirements along with a Requirement Source , Requirement ID, and Requirement Value.In the Resource Requirement Analysis screen, the fulfillment by Resource correctly specifies whether the Resources fulfil the Criteria. None, Partially of FullWhen I create a Work Task and assign the Task to a Resource that does not fulfill the requirement criteria, there is no system message to prevent or warn that the Work Task Assignment should not go ahead due to the Resource not fulfilling the Resource Requirement criteria.Is there a standard function in IFS to provide a warning / error message when the resource being assigned does meet the Resource Requirement criteria ?
If I have 2 sites, Site A and Site B, and I created a Customer Order for Site A and the DOP Header is created for Site A, is it possible to create the PRs required for the DOP to be created in Site B. This scenario is since Site B shouldn’t see the stocks of Site A, but the stocks must be procured from Site A and sent to B as a centralized procurement.Is this possible in the IFS Cloud Standard?

Hi All,Has anyone configured a custom field in the My Purchase Order Authorizations screen?I am looking to display the following as custom fields within that page: PO Header Note PO Change Order Header Note The requirement is to make these visible during the authorization process.If anyone has implemented something similar, I would appreciate your guidance. Thanks in advance for your insights.Harsha

Hello,While creating a calendar based PM Action with WO generation lead time, the ‘remaining to due’ field is including the weekends as well even though the Maintenance Calendar excludes weekends.For example: The start date in the maintenance trigger is set to 23/02/2026 and the WO generation lead time is set to 1. The expectation is the Due Date should be considered as 20/02/2026 and automatically generate the WO based on the database task scheduled which does not work.But in the Maintenance Plan, the remaining to due field shows the number of days as 3 including the weekends. If we have the WO generation lead time as 3, then I’m able to trigger the WO using database task. I believe the due date and remaining to due fields must exclude weekends as per the calendar but can someone please confirm if this is the expected behavior?
We are trying to figure out how we can determine what projections are being used by our various groups. This will help us in our prioritizing validation efforts in our next upgrade. We see the most recently used applications upon login. I noticed that those are the same across browsers, so I doubt those are kept locally. If they are kept in a table, we could mine that over time and correlate that to different user permission sets to get a better picture.Has anyone ever figured out how to mine this data?
Hello, we have a situation where we send material to a supplier and they provide us with a credit (i.e. no physical parts). The process can take months and we want to know how much is at the supplier waiting for credit. Ideally, we would have a purchase part (non-inventory) created on the purchase order line, be able to issue materials randomly. Once the supplier has assessed the materials they determine the credit and report back to us. So there is no correlation between the material sent and the amount of credit received. While the material is at the supplier we would like to have the visibility of the material in our outside processing warehouse. When the PO is received for credit, all the material issued to that line would be backflushed from the outside processing warehouse.We are on IFS Cloud 24R2Thanks in advance.
Hi, does somebody have experience with Italian split payment, can somebody help? How to separate the B2G/PA customers from the other customer types, in order to calculate Split payment automatically? How to ensure that an order with multiple VAT rates is automatically calculated with Split Payment on the invoice? How to create the connection between the TAX calculation and TAX withhold calculation without manual input on transaction level? Thank you! Ina
Is in IFS Cloud 25R2 any possibility to present the due dates of PM Actions over a certain time range (e.g. Week, Month, Year) in graphical way such as a Gantt chart without creating Work Order?Thx for your support
Hello All,I have a customer requirement, where they want to run a periodical capitalization and revenue recognition. However, they do not want to reverse the revenue recognition postings on next period rather they want to keep calculating and posting the revenue to be recignized on the periodical basis.Ultimately, they are looking for the result fo monthly report and yearly report for revenue recognized for a long term projects which has ifecycle of minimum 3 years?I know IFS standard functionality, will always reverse the previous period voucher and calculate again cumulative amount to be recongnized. but did anyone has similar kind of requirement and solution suggestion for this?ThanksRaj
Need some advise please We are using Rental Workbench to control external supplier hire. We created a Date Exception ID to not pay for bank holidays. This means transactions will not generate for those days. However some suppliers have charged us for these days, we have tried to create a manual event at standard 100% price factor on that day, however it records the manual event but will not create transactions for that missing date. I have tried removing the date exception ID and repeating the steps but this still does nothing. We now cannot match invoices because there is a cost of a single day missing, hoping there is an easy front end fix to this issue!

I originally shared this on LinkedIn — Smarter Permission Set Design in IFS Cloud — and it seemed to resonate with a lot of folks, so I figured it was worth a share here as well. Hope you find it useful! Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn and swap ideas.Most ERP teams don’t think twice about how they structure permissions — until the week before go-live or the day the system breaks.If you've ever worked on an IFS Cloud implementation and suddenly hit a wall when assigning roles to users, you’ve may have encountered the Oracle role limitation. It’s a quiet constraint — but a critical one. Each user can only be granted around 48 roles, including both END_USER and FUNCTIONAL permission sets.In large, complex organizations, or even just well-designed implementations, it's surprisingly easy to hit that ceiling.After navigating these challenges on multiple projects, I want to share a framework that’s helps us stay organized, scalable, and within Oracle's limits — without compromising a
Hello,We are using the Copy Part function in a workflow to generate a part creation history log page.This process also triggers Purchase Parts, Sales Parts, Parts, and Inventory Parts through the history logs in order to identify the origin of the creation.We are currently experiencing issues related to privileges and permissions. With a Sales account role, I am unable to create a part from the Copy Part page.I have added the following to the permission set: Copy Part, Sales Part, Inventory Part, and Part Projections. However, when I try to copy a Sales Part, it still does not work.There are many options available during the copy process (e.g., copy routings, etc.). How can I retrieve the list of missing permissions?In the debug tool, we do not see any detailed information, and since there are no server traces available, I cannot identify which permission is missing.Additionally, we do not want a Sales operator to be able to create routings, for example. However, when using the Copy Pa
We have one user who is experiencing the GL balance analysis screen greyed out, displaying no filters etc. This arose since moving to Aurena and it is doing the same in Cloud. They get the same issue for all companies and they would have accessed this regularly before, so it cannot be a permissions issue. Has anyone any ideas?
Hi everyone,We are experiencing an issue in the TST environment when using the Appointment Booking API standard APIs from FSM.When we send an Appointment Booking request in TST, we receive the following error response { "@odata.context": "https://iberdrola-fsm-tst.ifs.cloud/OData/$metadata#Edm.String", "value": "Object reference not set to an instance of an object.\r\n"}We tested the same request in the DEV environment and this is working correctly, the issue could not be reproduced.
