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

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.

Using the “Compare Shop Order with Structure and Routing” option on a shop order shows blowthough phantom items strangely. I get that its doing a 1 to 1 with the product structure so it shows the phantom as being “absent” on the shop order structure and the blow-through components as being “additional”.But I don’t like how the default action is to “remove” the additional components, when they really should be there. We had a change order come through and a planner went through this screen to update shop orders and removed many components without realizing. If we use the “Update Structure Revision and/or Alternate” or “Mass Update Shor Order Structures” it updates the shop orders correctly. Just wondering if I’m missing something with a setting or something. Or if anyone knows if there is any plans to make the Compare feature a little “smarter” in regards to phantom structures.

In IFS10 intercompany instant invoice, the counterparty in the line is getting overridden by the customer ID after saving the invoice. This is occurring only for specific users. What might be the issue? And the access seems to be okay. Is there anything else needs to be checked on the project used or any other setup?

Hello,When we try to cancel a manual customer invoice in status Preliminary, we have the error message below.The accouting period is already open and I can’t understant why it looks to the accounting period since the invoice is in Preliminary status so no voucher created.We are in 25.1.7 version Thank you

Hi all,I’m currently working on a project for a customer in the Oil & Gas industry.They collaborate with subcontractors and assign work orders to external companies. These external technicians are expected to execute the work orders just like internal technicians — including recording measurements, completing checklists, and so on.At the moment, the discussion is leaning toward not sending work orders to the mobile devices of external technicians. Instead, the intention is to use the B2B Portal both for dispatching and for executing the work orders. However, based on my experience, the B2B Portal does not support performing measurements on objects or completing checklists.Has anyone implemented a solution or workaround for this scenario? Any recommendations or best practices on how to address this would be greatly appreciated.Thanks, 

Hi,Primavera P6 EPPM synchronization with IFS Cloud is failing during updating the record. The syncronization is working fine when we are updating  project, subproject and activity for first time from Primvera to P6 but failing during updating same in next synchronization onwards. Below are steps to replacate scenerio.1. Create a Project Header only in IFS.2. Create same Project, Subproject and Activity in Primavera3. Synchrozation Project from Primavera to IFS. It will sucessfully Sync Project, Sub Project and Activity in IFS4. In Primavera , change activity details.5. Now try to sync project from Primavera to IFS, it fails, and gives the bellow errors. com.oracle.pgbu.pdi.provider.ProviderException    at com.ifs.ifsprojectprovider.project.ProjectDataLoadStep.getIfsProject(ProjectDataLoadStep.java:110)    at com.ifs.ifsprojectprovider.project.ProjectDataLoadStep.load(ProjectDataLoadStep.java:73)    at com.oracle.pgbu.pdi.service.jobs.JobSimulator.executeLoadStep(JobSimulator.java:1178

Hi,We are on IFS Cloud 24.2.13.We have created a custom command to receive goods through the Register Arrivals process. The custom logic successfully runs Receive_Order_API.Packed_Arrival when the Purchase Orders are created from Requisitions or Project Demand.If I try the same PO line using the Standard “Receive” button, it works as expected, which I think rules out things like the Unit of Measure being the issue?However, when we create a PO via a migration job (used for mass‑loading POs), and then run the same custom code to call:Receive_Order_API.Packed_Arrival…we get the following error:The calculated inventory quantity is 0 (zero) as a result of the stated purchase quantity and the quantity calculation rounding for the inventory part. Please consider increasing the purchase quantity.Has anyone seen this behaviour?What causes the system to calculate an inventory quantity of 0? Does this point to a missing UoM conversion, rounding rule, or inventory UoM mismatch on the PO created vi

Hi,We are working on a solution for a manufacturing metal fabrication customer who would do multiple cutting operations for different products using an Operation Block. They are not using clockings to track start and end operations, only manual approving operations.Cutting Example:Cutting 10 Shop orders are created to fabricate 10 different pipe products of 10 different diameters. Each and every shop order has a cutting operation is their operation list. For all the cutting operations planners use one cutting resource. All the cutting operations from 10 shop orders combine into 1 operation block. Then the operator uses shop floor workbench to approve the operations in the operation block. When the operator tries to approve, he has to enter, machine, labor and quantities manually for each operation. What they expect is to enter quantity, labor and machine time total quantity and distribute.We find that distributing quantity is confusing because it is different quantities and can even be

Hello,Does IFS make available a table of IFS Cloud releases organised by month - ideally with a hyperlink to the release notes for said service update.It could look something like this:Release Month 25R2 25R1 24R2 24R1 23R2 23R1 December 2025 SU? SU? SU? SU? SU? SU? January 2026 SU? SU? SU? SU? SU? SU? February 2026 SU? SU? SU? SU? SU? SU?  When there is General Available of a new release (e.g. 26R1) - a new column would be added for said release. Presumably for the first month the logical link would say GA. If a release is End of Life (EOL) then an EOL link to the End of Life announcement could be provided.The reason I ask about this is that:-I personally find it difficult to establish what service updates came out in a given month. Knowing this may be helpful for companies considering whether they A - Upgrade to a later service update for the release they are currently on B - Update to the equivalent service for a more recent relea

Hello community,  I am facing a question here… how to calculate the lead time for all routing alternates with status buildable at once in IFS Cloud?   I can do it one by one but when I mark two or more, the option disappears. I was thinking about BPA but as I am not an IT girl, I asked GPT for help. Can somebody confirm that this would be doable or propose suitable adjustements?  START (Scheduled or Manual)routing_alternatives =  SELECT contract,         part_no,         routing_revision,         alternative_no  FROM Routing_Alternative  WHERE objstate = 'Released'FOR EACH routing_alternative IN routing_alternativesLOOP   CALL Routing_Alternative_API.Calculate_Manufacturing_Lead_Time(        contract          => routing_alternative.contract,        part_no           => routing_alternative.part_no,        routing_revision  => routing_alternative.routing_revision,        alternative_no    => routing_alternative.alternative_no   )END LOOPEND Thank you for your support, BRPetra

Hi, We are in APP10. We don’t have VIM module installed. we don’t have CRO.

Has anyone out there recently started having problems with communicated PO’s not showing PDF copies of PO’s on the B2B Supplier Portal? Everything for us was working fine for years until recently. Now, when our puchasing department communicates a PO, it may or may not send the PDF of the PO to the portal. It happens randomly and it hard to reproduce. If a user goes back into a failed PO and re-communicates the PO, it will work without anything having changed otherwise. It can happen at any time of the day, to any user, and to any supplier. We recently patched IFS and, coincidentally, this is about the timeframe when the problem started, though we can’t say for sure that is related.

Hello. I was wondering if there was a way to get a newly created voucher number in a workflow? I found that when using a custom event, it would give you a number that’s associated with a transfer id rather than the newly created voucher number. This would be used to read the manual voucher and then I’d attach an approval template to the manual voucher itself. I was hoping there may be a more consistent way to get the newest voucher no. Thanks. Thanks,Jay
