Our assembly process requires in-house painted parts.  But historically our paint process has been outside of IFS.  Sometimes we paint a full product, sometimes we paint the front of a product, so we’d like to track the ‘painted’ surface area on each part that is painted.Where would be the recommended fields to keep this information stored within IFS?

In Cloud, I am trying to add a resource to a group.  I keep getting a “Capacity basis already exists” error.  The resource does not belong to any other group. I noticed another post from a few years ago for Apps 10, but no one answered the question.How do I get around this error? 

Hi,We have a quick question for which we need an urgent answer.Our customer has purchased PR LTU licenses, but since the access to windows is limited, they can barely achieve much.Can we use the Automated Order Processing functionality to automate the other process like Releasing a PO, authorizing a PO etc and will it be possible for the PR LTU user to continue the cycle upto PO? Can you give us the information of what the PR LTU user can access and do in the application? Thank you

Greetings, IFS Community. In accordance with these instructions, I have added a quick report to Aurena: https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/foundation1/045_administration_aurena/220_Configuration/200_client_configurations/300_commands/default.htm#execute-quick-report-command The report was created successfully.

Currently, it is only possible to define a single email address for all supplier and customer emails - statements, invoices, payment advices (remittances), CIS deduction statements, orders etc. However, in reality this varies on a supplier/customer basis and very often multiple email addresses are used for a single type of document.It is possible to define this through configurations, but this is done in all implementations and all new prospects ask for this. Hence, more flexibility should be allowed in the Comm Method tabs or in report rules to select multiple types of comm method lines. It is very typical for different customers and suppliers have different setup requirements. E.g. for some suppliers/customers, the statements will be sent to a single email address, but for others it will go to multiple email addresses.  The solution could be to introduce multiple generic checkboxes for “Report Type X” against the comm method tab:This allows for flexibility, because these can be renam

Transfer to Payroll - assistent for travel expenses… We do not pay travel expenses directly from IFS, we transfer them to our Payroll system. The Payroll system does not upload .dat file, so we have to change format to txt.Where in the application can we adjust the file type ?

Hello,When calculating a Part cost in Product costing, it calculates the cost for 1pce or standard batch size. Is it possible to calculate costs for different batch sizes. For example, if our manufactured product is using purchased components and we have a pricing added behind the supplier of the component for several different batch sizes, is it possible to calculate our manufacturing cost for 1pce, 5pcs and 10pcs, so that it take into account those price steps we have from our material supplier? 

Hi,Do you know if it's possible to use a “select” as a quick report variable?Or to have the variables pre-populated?Regards

Hi, I’ve spent a bit of time trying to figure this out but wondered if it was possible. I have had a request to show Change Order Actions from CO lines on the change request screen, I have tried a few things such as creating a projection accociation between the two entities and binding them to ECO_NO, but due to them needing to have a CO first this means they don’t show on the change request screen, and end up showing all CO actions because the filter fails. I have also tried using custom fields to select the actions and display them as fields, this works but only shows the first action at the list due to the statement only being able to pull 1 field and not multiple, so it can only put 1 action into the custom field. Is this possible due to them having different data sets/not sharing any key rows ? Many Thanks

We are on IFS Cloud.IFS calculates Withholding Tax as a % of the NET supplier invoice amount (exclusive of ‘deductible’ VAT/Taxes).However, Irish Revenue calculates the Withholding Tax on the GROSS supplier invoice amount (inclusive of ‘deductible’ VAT/Taxes).e.g. supplier invoice = €100 + VAT (sales taxes) €13.5 = gross €113.50 to be paid.  The Withholding tax rate is 20%.  Irish Revenue calculate withholding tax amount of €113.50 x 20% = €22.70, i.e. pay the supplier €113.50 less €22.70 = €90.80 but IFS calculates €100 x 20% = €20 i.e. pay the supplier €113.50 less €20 = €93.50.I do not appear to have any option/feature in IFS to change the withholding tax amount to automatically calculate based on the Gross amount.I know that it is possible to manually modify the withholding tax amount in IFS when creating the payment proposal but ideally I want the system to calculate as required first time.Any thoughts or similar experience in the Community?

Hello everyone, and happy 2026 :)I have a question about GED. Would it be possible for a customer to sign a document on a tablet and have that signature attached to the order in question? For example, in the service area, we could envisage an intervention followed by a signature from the customer. 

Hello,I am facing the below error.What might the issue or missing setup Regards,Kruthika

Hi, to my knowledge GAEB is used to communicate with different stakeholders especially for biddings in the german building industry.The customer is creating invitations to bid. These can be imported with X83 standard. The supplier is sending his bid with the x84 standard. Has someone experience with this? To my understanding the rules for the creation of x84 are highly complex and I would not recommend an interface with x83/x84 standard. I would prefer an interface to a software which does the importing/exporting of x83/x84. And I do not see BOOMI to do it but a specialised software for GAEB.What do you think?Thank you,Sarah

We have a report with Design Rows for a Income Statement that some expenses are defined by cost center and account number. Others are strictly on the account number and we’re using a basic filter for that but an advanced filter with cost center and account combination.We have a sheet repeater to have an income statement for each cost center. For cost centers that have a row with no data it is suppressing those rows where we have the advanced filter. On the basic filter lines we have the “all” checked.We want to do the same with the advanced filtered lines also, because we will in Excel create a summary tab to add all the cost center tabs together. The issue is the lines in each tab don’t match 1 for 1 because some tabs have rows suppressed and they have difference rows suppressed compared to each other. how can we get all rows, regardless if a NULL value in each repeated tab for the lines using an advanced filter?

Hello,I am working with a customer that associates forklifts in a warehouse with specific areas within a warehouse. For instance, if a given area in the warehouse may not be large enough to accomodate a forklift of a specific size, then it will not allow a warehouse worker to be assigned to that task involving that location if the warehouse worker is associated with the forklift.Essentially, the equipment becomes a variable in determining whether the warehouse task can be assigned to a given worker. Has anyone encountered this requirement? Does anyone have any ideas on how this might be managed in the software? Julian White
