Hi,I am looking for advice on a situation I am facing.My customer works mainly in welding and coating. Their project sites are often far away from the main warehouse site. Because of this, I want to keep welding and coating stock at the customer’s project location.My idea is to create remote locations and move stock from the warehouse to these remote locations using shipment orders.When the remote location is in the same country as the site, this works fine.However, I am having a problem when the remote location is in another country.In that case, customs clearance is required, and I need a proforma invoice. I am not sure how to create a proforma invoice when the shipment order is created directly from Inventory.The PO–CO process does not work here because the project location belongs to the same company. Also, I cannot create a new site every time there is a new project.How would you handle this situation?Do I need to create the customs documents manually in this case?

Dear IFS Community, We didn’t found a way to Detach or Delete approved step from Document Approvals (Attachments/APPROVAL PROCESS tab - IFS CLOUD 24R2 SU5).Even the user who approved has the error message “Illegal to remove a step with status Approved”.Anyone has a solution for this?  

This probably has a really simple answer that I am missing. I am building a query and need the status from the estimate, as highlighted below. I have gone through every one of the estimate entities shown below and cannot find this field, looked at the debug console trying to determine it, I’m hitting a wall.Does anyone know which entity it resides in?  

Are you able to change the Valid until date for period 1(Jan), if you have had transactions and postings already.? 

Hi All.We have received an inquiry from a customer and would like to know how to implement this in IFS Cloud.1. For example, when sales reach ¥1 billion, grant ¥100 million worth of service credits (similar to point management systems used by electronics retailers or Amazon).2. Subsequently, when receiving orders from that customer, offset the order amount using the service credits. If any balance remains after the offset, we want to generate an invoice for that remaining amount.3. It should also be possible to combine and use multiple service credits together.4. Service credits should have an expiration date and become unusable once expired.This functionality corresponds to the rules in IFRS 15.70 - 72. Regards.

Hello,We occasionally run across some issues when Transferring task assignments to a tech’s MWO service app. The tasks are all Transferred to Mobile, but it sometimes gets caught and does not Download to Mobile. I checked if there are some background jobs preventing this...but nothing is currently running. Is there something else I should be checking or is there a task/batch update I can push to force the download to mobile?Thank you in advance

I got a question from a team member, who had made their Business Activity under a Sales Quotation. This Sales Quotation is connected to a Business Opportunity, but the Business Activity doesn’t show in the Business Opportunity - only on the Sales Quotation.Is this normal in IFS Cloud? We would like to see Business Activities made for Sales Quotations also to show under respective Business Opportunity. We strive to work mostly within the Business opportunity module, and now there is a risk the data regarding the Opportunity becomes fragmented and Activities must be searched for in different places. There might be several opportunities ongoing for each account simultaneously which adds to the risk of fragmented data in my opinion.

I want to create Engineering part numbers with a drawing revision and then be able to use them as Purchase Parts on a PO where the Rev number will appear. Can someone walk me through this? I’ve created the part numbers, but I can’t get the Rev to appear in the Part Order Lines.

Hi All.Is it possible to control the IFS standard so that Dop Order alarms are not generated?Our client is experiencing performance issues due to a large number of Dop Order alarms being created.Therefore, I would like to prevent Dop Order alarms from being generated.Best Regards.

We have registered new serial objects in IFS and enabling them for measurement. End-users are to enter meter readings through the Upload Measurements functionality in bulk. Keen to know if there is a relatively easy way to setup the Meter IDs in bulk for the initial setup. Thank you. 

In the master part we are migrating 25.488 as the net weight for one of our parts. Somewhere along the line, it was changed to 25.488581893. Given the high number of decimal places, I suspect an automated calculation or a UOM conversion is at play.I tried to recreate this by creating a new part and going through all migration jobs but had no luck. I don’t believe this was changed manually by anyone although it's not off the table.I should note that this is only affecting a small portion of parts.Any ideas? 

Receiving the above error, but User group AC is connected to voucher type = I, function type = I for 2026:    What am I missing?Thanks.

Hello All, Can somebody provide a good document/tutorial/work instructions on how to create a Business Report? I don’t seem to find any good manuals that describe the possibilities and ways that we can use business reporter. For example: - If I use a Repeater on a row, can I use this repeater and define this immediatley as a dynamic XLS table? - Can I make a Pivot table of this? - How can I create a bar chart that takes into account the dynamic range of the repeater? - How to add an additional ‘calculated’ column to the table? (Calculated = I just want the difference between 2 source columns). Thanks for your help! Best RegardsRoel

I want to hide the shipment address when it is the same as the billing address, and show it only when they are different.I tried adding conditions on the Shipment Table like:tns:SHIP_ADDR_2 != 'BILL_ADDR_2'tns:SHIP_ADDR_2 != BILL_ADDR_2And for testing the opposite:tns:SHIP_ADDR_2 = BILL_ADDR_2tns:SHIP_ADDR_2 = 'BILL_ADDR_2'However, in all cases the shipment address table disappears completely, regardless of whether the addresses are the same or different.Question:What is wrong with these conditions? How should I correctly compare the billing and shipment address fields in an IFS report template so that the shipment address is hidden only when both addresses match?    

Can anyone share their experience using Vertical Bands in Report Studio?  The IFS documentation is very sparse and I’m trying to understand how/if the Vertical bands can be bound to a Data Member like Detail Report bands can, thus allowing repetition at any schema level.  From what I see (though trial and error), the Report itself can be bound to the top-most Data Member containing my report fields, but that’s it.  I think this means that any repeating data needs to be sourced from that single schema node if I want to put it into the Vertical bands.  I did find a way around it by adding a Detail Report section below the Vertical bands that’s bound to a lower schema node.  This seems to work, but I’m not sure if there’s built-in Vertical Band functionality that I’m missing.Any comments on your experience using Vertical Bands are appreciated.  

Hi everyone,I have created a Custom Field in the 'Supplier Payment Order' screen that concatenates multiple Purchase Order numbers into a semicolon-separated string (e.g., '00001;00002;00003') using LISTAGG.Local Supp Pay Order - OverviewI am now trying to create a Custom Menu to navigate to the 'Purchase Order' window using this field as a parameter. When the field contains a single value, the navigation works perfectly. When the field contains multiple values, the target screen opens empty because it tries to find an exact match for the entire string. Is there a way to pass these values so the target screen interprets them as an 'OR' or 'IN' filter? Custom MenuThanks in advance!IFSAPP10

Hello, On work tasks, the inventory transactions are not reversing automatically out of WIP when the task is closed.  Time transactions on the same work task reverse out of WIP automatically when the task is closed.I used the Release WIP To Final Accounts + Check and Update Accounting to manually reverse one of the Inventory lines out of WIP. That worked correctly. Can anyone help with why the Inventory lines are not reversing automatically when the Work Task is set to Finished? Cost code rule settings:   Many thanks.

Hello, We just implemented IFS and we are using the Inspect in QA process. Some receipts are for large quantities and we would like to release partial quantities from the receipt. Currently we are registering the inspection results for partial qty then changing the total inspection qty to zero in order to allow Move into Stock. However this restricts us from inspecting further until the stock is moved. Is there a better solution?

When defining a an STDVOU template, there is an option to define a template control.Is there any documentation on how those control works please?  Kind regards

HI,I’m getting he following error while doing the multisite shipment arrival. I checked the postings and the cost types. All are updated properly. Please advise. 

I have identified a discrepancy concerning a part with dual values in the system. Upon receipt of the shop order, the total cost was updated to $841.8577. However, reviewing the individual shop order part reveals the issuing total cost is only $728.9187. Could you please provide the reason for this variance.  

Which view(s) should I use to reconstruct the multi-level cost structure (with all components)?
