Greetings!I ran a Interim Order in IFS apps 10. However I keep seeing the errors below regarding “no value” However, when I look into the Part Config I do see values.
In IFS Cloud, mass reservation of Shop Orders fails completely if any Shop Order in the batch encounters a material shortage.This issue occurs when the part has “Allow Many Lots per Component” = FALSE.Even if other Shop Orders have valid inventory, they are not processed.The system stops the entire reservation process and shows an error only for the failing Shop Order.As a result, planners must manually reserve each Shop Order, which is not feasible for large volumes. The error: Does anyone else follow the same mass reservation process and encounter this issue—where the entire process stops due to one Shop Order failing (e.g., because “Allow Many Lots per Component” is set to FALSE and there's a material shortage)?If so, how do you overcome this and successfully reserve a large number of Shop Orders at once?

In the product structure, it is possible to set a default value for whether a component item is a standard planned item, but in the configuration structure, there is no default setting for whether a component item is a standard planned item.
I have a question regarding an electronic Kanban circuit. Is it possible to directly deduct the inventory to a cost center once the transport task has been executed, instead of transferring it to a location? This is to prevent incorrect stock levels on the shop floor, particularly for small packaging materials and fasteners. I would like to add the cost of these materials to the product cost by applying a surcharge.
I have a shop order where there is no standard material cost showing up. I have looked at other parts with the same operation and those do have the costs as expected, but even historically, this one part without the standard material cost doesn’t appear to ever have had it on the shop orders for previous runs. I’m assuming this is a setting on the part somewhere, but I am unable to find anything. Has anyone else run into this before, or know of a setting that controls the standard cost on shop orders? The other cost buckets have standard cost present, it is just the materials costs missing. I have highlighted where the material costs normally show up below:
Hello, On the DOP structure, all DOP are close, All Shop Order are also closed, exept one. Still at Started status. I guess it has been restarted. How can I proced to close this shop order. Thank you for your help.
I’m looking for a glossary of IFS terminology our organization can reference. Does anyone know where I can find and access such a resource?
Hello,In Posting Control settings there is a possibility to use Control type C83 - Location Group for M1 Posting Type. This means when I move Part from Location Group 1 to Location Group 2 Warehouse accounts (M1) could be different.Currently FIFO method doesn’t support FIFO pile usage for movements transactions. Instead it uses average cost.As a result we get incorrect balances on Account (M1).Example:Receive 2 pcs | Cost 50 | Location 1 | Account 1620Receive 2 pcs | Cost 58 | Location 1 | Account 1620Move - 1 pcs | Cost 54 | Location 1 | Account 1620Move +1 pcs | Cost 54 | Location 2 | Account 1625Issue -1 pcs | Cost 50 | Location 2 | Account 1625Account 1625 has balance 4, but real quantity on the Location 2 is 0.Attached you can find screenshots for settings and transactions.Resume: we can’t use FIFO method in connection with C83 - Location group posting control at the moment. BUT: our customer works exactly in described way and it needs FIFO in moves transactions very much.Request:
It appears that the set up of a production line allows for the entry of more than 1 outbound locations on a production line but I cannot devise a reason why I would want more than 1 outbound location. Any ideas? Thanks!
We have about 20 timeclocks and they all appear to have the same time which is about 3 minutes behind the correct time. The servers all show the correct time and the desktops running them all have the correct time so is there somewhere in IFS to adjust the timeclock time?
Greetings!I have every line filled out in my Interim Demand Header, but is still shows incomplete. I made sure the Part Config is in released status. Everything looks good, how do I fix it?

Hi Everyone,I’m looking for guidance on whether there is an alternative way to perform a drop shipment (direct delivery) in IFS Cloud from supplier to external customer without using a customer order as a demand.Business Scenario- The client is using the Projects and Service modules, where demand is generated through these modules. Based on this demand, the supplier ships the items directly to the customer, subcontractor, or technician trucks.Specifically, is it possible to handle drop shipment based on project demand or a service request, rather than creating a customer order? If so, I’d appreciate any insights on recommended setups, processes, or best practices.Thank you in advance for your support.Kind regards,Nirushi
Hello,I’m looking for a support to understand the correct posting type setup for M187 when creating a tolerance posting. As per the following SS, $10 tolerance posting auto created to match the Invoice Line amount of $60. M187 Posting type has been setup for Account, Site, and Product families. But the issue is when creating a Supplier Invoices for Chargers, the $10 tolerance is not absorbed to Inventory part. Is there any way to define posting type M187 to posting Chargers from Supplier Invoice with tolerance/variation? Thank you. Supplier Invoice Posting Setup
Hi,Has anyone implemented Segregation of Duties in the cloud.If so, are you willing to export the Functional Areas you have added so that others can import these?It seems crazy that there are none set up as default and that we all need to create these from scratch. There are obvious ones (like Supplier Payment Addresses) that we would all be interested in. Then is would be up to individual IFS Customers to decide how they want to set up the Functional Area Conflicts?Thanks,GrahamPS: I will come back and upload mine when I am finished.
Dear Team,Could you please let us know the function group to be used for Consolidation, because currently one of our client has upgraded to 25R1from IFS 9. In IFS 9 they had voucher type C used for consolidation it was mapped to C function group. In IFS cloud 25R1 I cannot see the function group C Could you please help with this?Thanks&Regards,Afrin Dobani
When I create an Inventory Part from Project Deliverables is it using an Inventory Template Part? If not, what’s it use? If not, is there a way to tell Project Deliverables to use this or that template part?Thanks/Patrick

Hi everyone,We’re preparing to upgrade our environment from IFS Cloud 24R1 to 25R1 and I’d like to ask if there are any specific areas we should pay attention to this time — any known issues, changes, or recommendations from your experience?We’re also planning to upgrade OS of VM (Ubuntu Linux) to the latest release, so any advice or compatibility notes related to this would be appreciated.Lastly, how does it look with Kubernetes compatibility and version requirements for 25R1 or latest Ubuntu? Are there any major changes or prerequisites we should be aware of before starting the upgrade process?
A question to the community Is it good or bad that the assigned color to menu isn’t reflected on the breadcrumb?
Hi, I hope someone can help with this. We ahve started noticing a few negative values in the events column of Demand Plan Client and this is not a field we have ever used before. Do you know where the system is getting these figures from as we want them to be zero?Thank youStacy
Hello, I have noticed that with a defined discrete UoM on a part, you are still able to report and receive into inventory a fraction of a part. I do not understand how this would be possible. Would setting it to a discrete UoM not force you to report whole numbers?Calc Qty Rounding is also set at 0 on the Inventory Part record. Any guidance on understanding how this issue is occurring would be appreciated. Thank you!
I’d like to add a custom field on on the list view Business Opportunities. We are currently on IFS Aurena, please advise.
can you think of why on a multilevel repair shop order, after issuing the top level make part (serialized) the multilevel repair structure tab stays greyed out? I am currently experiencing this, this serial has been through a multi-level repair shop order once already to salvage some parts and now more parts need to be salvaged but its not working
Hi,Could someone please clarify the usage of the “Auto Replace to Alternate upon Reservation” toggle in the Inventory Part?I have enabled this option and confirmed that it is reflected in the Alternate Component. However, after creating Shop Orders and testing multiple scenarios, I’m unable to observe any behavioral difference when the toggle is enabled versus disabled.Could you please explain in which scenarios this option takes effect, or let me know if there are any specific prerequisites or conditions to be met for it to work as expected?Thank You.
