IFS Solutions

Hi All, We have an Apps10 environment hosted on the IFS hosted cloud. In the last 10 days we have had the environment go down 7 times because of stuck threads. We have had a similar situation in the past and it was diagnosed to be from the parallelism set on the RMAN backups. While we thought that was resolved the issue has resurfaced. I am reaching out to the community to see if anyone has experienced similar event due to MWS stuck threads and how have you resolved it?

Can you deactivate a non-inventory Purchase Part so it cannot be used again?  Essentially, it is obsolete with not replacement.  I can’t find a way to keep it from being requested on a purchase requisition.

We’re trying to model a process in IFS CLOUD in which a Customer who is in receipt of a Product returns it to our client along with a request for some modifications. The Customer will provide an order for this work. When the Customer order is released we run part specific MRP to create the action proposals and then use one of these action proposals to create a Shop Order. We then manually peg the Customer Order line to the Shop Order.The problem we’re facing is that the Part that the Customer has ordered from us is a Manufactured Part, and although we have a Part Revision, Product Structure and Routing in the system to enable us to Remanufacture it, when we try to process it using MRP all of the data generated for the Shop Order is using the data for the Manufactured Part rather than for the Remanufactured part that we need.We can try to work around this by Manually creating the Shop Order using the Remanufacturing Data Set and then peg that to the Customer Order Line, or, we can creat

We had an issue where the Print Agent died and when we rebooted, everything began working normally, and new print jobs flowed fine, but there are still over a dozen jobs in “Print Manager” stuck in “Working” status. Any ideas? Thanks!

In Apps9 prior to upgrading to Cloud we used to use the API call Time_Pers_Diary_Result_API.New and Modify used to work. Now this is the only code I can find using the debug tool in 23r1:DECLAREreturn_array_ Time_Registration_Manager_Handling_SVC.Dialog_Result_Structure_Arr;cursor_ SYS_REFCURSOR;BEGINreturn_array_ := Time_Registration_Manager_Handling_SVC.Do_Report_Date_Range_With_Intervals('TIME_REGISTRATION_ATTENDANCE', 'FALSE', 'TRUE', 'FALSE', 'FALSE', 'FALSE', 'FALSE', 'FALSE', 'FALSE', 'FALSE', 'FALSE', 'FALSE', 'FALSE', 'FALSE', 'FALSE', '10', '826', TO_DATE('2025-04-09','YYYY-MM-DD'), NULL, 'JEH', NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, 'M', 'M', NULL, NULL, '', NULL, NULL, 'L', 'O', 'NAT_DB', NULL, NULL, '101481020', NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL

Can a Change Order be used to CHANGE/UPDATE the Item Quantity on a Sub / Sales Contract?  As far as I can tell CCOs seem to only be capable of creating new Contract Line/Items. I would like to be able to use change orders to manage variations and update the Item Quantities on Sales and Sub Contracts.  ThanksTom

Hi there,I'm trying to create an XML Business Rule in which I basically want to validate whether a user has a specific role in their set of roles and, if so, an error type message translation is run. Does anyone know if it's possible to write an XML code to run an already defined message translation or, alternatively, how to write an XML code to perform an error message?

Hi,We currently have a need from time to time to correct current absence limits (Total Unused Hours) in IFS Cloud.  Mostly due to data entry errors.From doing some searching it seems this was possible in earlier versions of IFS, but there doesn’t seem to be away of doing this in IFS Cloud. We not using carry forward limits so it’s not possible to do this via import unused limits. Am I missing something?

We are implementing MWM 8.2 and adding over Appointment slots at over 40 service centers with anywhere from 1 to 5 time slots. To my knowledge this is a manual effort, but wanted to ask the group if there was an easy button? 

I have previously posted a question on this but had no response.  I need to record the serial number of a part when necessary. This requires a data transaction to 2 tables. This is my code. It doesn’t error but it also doesn’t record anything. Any advice at all would be appreciated if (initialValuesHaveChanged()){      var taskTrans = generateDataTransaction("part_usage", "INSERT","");      taskTrans = addToDataTransaction(taskTrans, "task_id", taskId);      taskTrans = addToDataTransaction(taskTrans, "part_id", partId);      taskTrans = addToDataTransaction(taskTrans, "part_line_code", line_code);      taskTrans = addToDataTransaction(taskTrans, "line_code_type", line_type);      taskTrans = addToDataTransaction(taskTrans, "quantity", quantity);             var taskTrans2 = generateDataTransaction("part_usage_serial", "INSERT","");      taskTrans2 = addToDataTransaction(taskTrans, "serial_id", serial);            saveDataTransaction(taskTrans, "Save Part Used Entry");      saveDataTra

Hello, I am using IFS Cloud 24R1 and we use SFWB to generate QA analysis from a manufacturing Control Plan. It appears that the new way to enter results is through a guided workflow that steps through each check and provides a pass/fail after clicking the checkbox. While this is beneficial, we are seeing that it can add a significant amount of time if you have a Control Plan that has 30+ checks. The table view in IEE made it easier to enter results quickly. Are there any other ways to modify the process for entering an analysis results to streamline the process? On average, we do 2,000+ analysis per week, so any method to increase the ability to enter results quickly would be beneficial. Thank you!

Hello everyone,This is your daily dose of issue.As we can not use a command group to order a report made with business reporter, I chosen to perform the business report generation through API rest calls on a webapp.The business report requires shop order no, release no and sequence no parameters.I went on the order report page to simulate the calls made and replicate those on my webapp.I use an IAM client with this configuration :When I use Postman with this account, no issue, the report is created and filled with data.When I use my webapp with the same account, I have no issue with rest calls (HTTP 2xx) , recovering data in responses to build next calls, everything look fine.But when I download the report, this one has the same structure, but data is empty, cells are not filled.Here is PHP source code of prototype :https://pastebin.com/bUf4XuMt

Hi colleagues,We have a customer who is able to produce and ship the demanded part quantity the same date the customer order is created (with ‘today’ as wanted delivery date). They will then, create the customer order (CTO process), handle the shop order process and delivery at customer’s address all in the same day.Usually they stock WIP and when needed they are pulled to build and ship the same day. Before agreeing the ship date they need to be sure they have enough materials (including WIP) and they want to use the capability check for that purpose.However Capabiilty check will consider as not feasible anything that is planned earlier than first working day after today’s date so capability check and same day shipping are not compatible.I got some questions:¿Is the availability check an alternative for them? I mean, setting the availability check for the whole structure (I guess that will impact performance) since apparently the constraint is not on the manufacturing capacity but in

I have a persistent, multiselect custom field in Aurena in the Business Opportunity Screen but it is missing from the search filters that I can choose from at the header level. Normally, when I add custom fields to a screen in Aurena, that field becomes an option as a search filter. Is this restricted to multiselect custom fields or am I missing something? The LU is synced and it is working perfectly in Aurena, I’m just not sure why it isn’t showing up as an option in the search filter drop down.

Hi,What are the steps in the system to handle toll manufacturing?We need to send goods out to a third party who is processing and get it back in.Thanks

We are getting a lot of Handling Units in the application that are empty. Has anyone been able to clean these up somehow? It seems not be possible to delete these:   

In Work Task Template from there is Tab “Task Template is Used”, and contains several cards, which allows to jump to another form, i.e. PM actions where particular WTT is used. Client expects not to see some of cards-links. In Page designer under the Tabs cannot find how to make them invisible. 

Hi,There is a difference in how the BR report is executed when the parameter value in entered manually and selected from LOV. Selecting from LOVTyping manually This happens for both ‘Year’ and ‘Month’. They are of number type. But this is how the queries are formed.using to_char() or to_number() in advanced filter criteria didn’t work. Converting the field in the IAL using to_char() also didn’t work.Is there any other way to resolve this? Best Regards,Nisansala

Hi Everybody, There is this legal requirement to have the Tax Regime (Regime Fiscale) in the e-invoice with different values, depending on the Tax Regime of the entity. As per what I have found in the documentation; IFS does not support yet other values that “RF01”, which is hardcoded. Considering that Invoice Enclosures must have that field populated with value “RF18”, could you please advise if there is any solution to currently handle this requirement? Thank you!

Hi,As anybody else had the need to identify purchase parts coming back from the supplier after rework during the receipt of parts and how were you able to put it in place in IFS ?For example, I have a purchase order for 8 parts.First, I receive 5 parts. Out of those 5, 3 are broken and need to go back to the supplier for rework.Later on, I receive 3 parts from the suppliers. How do I identify if they are the 3 initial good ones I had not received yet or they are the parts that were sent back for rework ?Those parts are not lot batch tracked or serialised.Your help would be appreciated,Kind Regards,Anne-Sophie

Hello, We are currently having this issue in PSO. We created several regions and connected for the beginning three resources to the regions. However, they are shown as duplicates on the gantt. In this case, resources 457, 464 and 494 are shown above, as if they wouldn’t belong to any regions and also under the current region. We deleted the resources, created them again, as usually, but nothing worked until now. Do you have any ideas here? Thank you,Iulia

Is there a process that can be run/scheduled to remove “orphan” Shipment records when Shipment Lines are reassigned to another shipment and the Shipment header no longer has any shipment lines. Sort of a “cleanup” process.
