Hi Team,I have a PO with one Part line and 1 Charge line connected to the part line.

If you have to do several tasks for one customer, it would be nice if you only had to ask for one signature from the customer at the end, so that all service reports are signed. For example, a signature on the last service report and this is transferred to all service requests that were generated for a customer on this day. Thanks Markus Kühnl

Hello,IHAC tying to update the expire date on 4,000 records within ‘report archive’. According to support KB0084604,” To update the expiration date, system use 'Report_Archive_SVC.Do_Change_Exp_Date' method. Users can create a new migration job with this method to bulk update the records.”How does one properly set up the migration job for this?How do we determine the required source columns, parameter mapping, and expected input values for the method.?If possible, it may be helpful to provide:A sample Migration Job configuration Required parameters for Report_Archive_SVC.Do_Change_Exp_Date Example mapping for updating expiration dates in bulk Any relevant documentation or screenshotsThanks in advance for any guidance.
Hi all.How is possible to create a B2B user with only access to B2B environment??I have created a B2B user but it can also enter to IFS Cloud. I guess it’s a persmission sets errors, may be?
Hi,We’re on Cloud 23R2. I’ve noticed that when issuing parts directly using “direct issue” on the tech portal, the parts aren’t registered under the Material tab in the work task, but only registered as costs. This might be confusing as everyone looks at the Materials area on the work task to see what parts were issued, where the direct issued parts now don’t appear. What was the reasoning behind it? Is that a bug?

Hi,We created an Email type Custom Event Action using PDF_REPORT_CREATED Event to send out Reminder Letters to customers. We are using the standard IFS report in Apps 10. The Custom Event is triggered successfully, and the email is sent with the attachment. However, the attachment filename in some emails appears to have an incorrect format.The attachment filename should be in the format shown below. Any reason for this issue?
Can someone show me where/how to define activities for MSO?
We have tried to run the database task "Auto Processing Shop Order" as a scheduled task. we have set the Offset from normal Time Span at various days so it will only do specified weeks in advance. Trouble is when we run it all Shop orders even those not within the specified time frame, get all their materials reserved. is the task faulty or are we not setting the Task up correctly?
As the IFS system administrator, I am reaching out to seek clarification regarding the possibility and requirements for upgrading our Oracle Database from version 19.26.0.0 to 19.27.0.0 or 19.29
Hi, The question I'm asking is not relevant only to CAPA objects, but also to a number of other objects as well. What we want is to configure approvals for each status of an object/line. In CAPA Actions, the line gets promoted through multiple statuses. The requirement is to set two persons as approvers (Person A and Person B) for the "Investigate" status. So, when a user clicks on "Investigate," the system should check whether Person A and Person B have provided their approval, and allow/disallow user accordingly.Similarly, for the other statuses shown in the image, there will be 2, 3, or more approvers set, with the same validation to be done before promoting the line to that status.It is true that this can be done through customization, but is there a standard/configuration way to do this more simply? Version: IFS Cloud 25R2 S. Already tried with attaching Approval Routings but no effect it seems.
We need to setup discount for entire purchase order in IFS. But it is not possible to provide discount amount for entire PO. Note that discount is not specified to an item. It is due to reaching the certain amount of order amount. How can we achieve it?
I am trying to model a process called pre-staging in IFS Cloud where a manufactured part is tested together with several other parts, including both manufactured and purchased parts. The test itself does not consume the components, but I need to document which components were used for which test, including serial numbers.I also need to record the fact that this test takes time and money, so it would be important to document the test effort and related cost as well. Ideally, the solution should capture both the technical traceability and the business aspect of the test execution.Is there a standard IFS Cloud solution for this requirement? If yes, which standard process or standard object should I use to record test usage, serial number traceability, and test cost/time documentation without building a custom solution?
Sending Customer Invoice, Debit through EDI (INET_TRANS) create an Application Message called SEND_INVOICE_INET_TRANS. Within this file there is a row called PoReference which was tied to customer_po_no.Now with 25R2 SU7 this has been altered and replaced with internal_po_no.As a result, the Customer PO No from our external customer order is not fetched anymore and missing in the outgoing application message. We need to know, how we can fix this, so the Customer PO No from the external Customer Order can be included again in the application message. Any advice how we can make this work again, since the CustomerPo is an essential part of the outgoing EDI messages.
Has anyone implemented a Transport Management Solution using IFS Cloud.Following is the simplified requirement:The client operates a transport system utilizing various vehicle types with distinct seating capacities alongside drivers who hold different types of licenses. The operational workflow begins when a staff member raises a transport request, which must be reviewed and approved by the respective transport manager (TM) within that specific division. Once the request is approved, the TM should be able to use IFS to search for an available vehicle within the division that matches the requested seating capacity. If a matching vehicle cannot be found locally, allocates one from another division. This exact cascading logic applies (done manually by the TM) to securing an available driver with the correct license type as well. Whenever a vehicle or driver is borrowed from an external division, the operational costs of those resources are automatically flagged and billed back to the orig
Hi,We’re using IFS Apps 10 with external HTTPS terminated at an Azure Application Gateway, and the same wildcard certificate is also installed on our IFS middleware VM for client signing during Reconfigure. With certificate lifetimes reducing and automated renewal becoming more common, I’m trying to understand how other customers handle this, has anyone figured a way of either not requiring a reconfigure to pickup the new certificate or a way of automating this reconfigure OOH?If the certificate is automatically renewed and updated on both the gateway and the VM (same private key if possible), IFS still seems to require a manual Reconfigure to pick up the new certificate (in theory so far) for client signing. Has anyone successfully automated this end‑to‑end, or found a reliable method for IFS to detect and use the renewed certificate without manual intervention?Please note, we’re automatically signing below.
What is the recommended process in IFS Cloud when a Fixed Asset has already been created and capitalized, the supplier invoice has been registered, and subsequently a supplier credit note is received reversing the entire purchase? What is the correct way to remove or reverse the Fixed Asset in the system?
