Hi,Just Curious, Is there any way in IFS Cloud to track page configurations done by users, such as which configuration was changed, which projection it belongs to, and when it was changed?Any way to track it through the backendThanks in advance
Hello, I am trying to customize the Navigator.I have a some new pages in module SRVCON which are located under a core navigator entry. But I want to have it under a new navigator parent entry all together so I tried this:Customizing the core Navigator.client file:So I have defined ma parent in here and then in my own Client-file I want to use that parent,but all I get is this error:Seems like the compiler does not generate or not recognize the new navigator entry that I made.I checked documentation, but could not figure out that I miss something.
Hello, For our customer, we would like to connect multiple service organisations (around 15-20) to a dataset. Apart from the normal sizing recommendations, can this have an impact on PSO performance? Thank you very much,Iulia
Will an outstanding control plan analysis prevent the shipment of a part?
When a Sales Part is inactive (and its Sales Base Price is closed), IFS still allows it to be added to a Sales Quotation after displaying only a warning, whereas the same part is blocked on a Customer Order.Is this the standard IFS behaviour? Is there any standard configuration or recommended approach to completely prevent inactive/obsolete Sales Parts from being added to new Sales Quotations, or would this require a customization?Product Version: 23.2.17Business Impact: When a Sales Part is obsolete, it is still possible to select it within a Sales Quotation albeit with a warning message (this is not the case with Customer orders). The warning message is easy to miss so we would like to find a solution that prevents the part from being selected altogether.
I have an customer advanced invoice in error - this is due to us having never set up this process and posting controls not set up for this eitherCan the invoice be cancelled and and a standard Customer Order invoice be raised in it’s place?

I want to give access to a user to Multi-company external supplier invoice. How can I do it?
Hello,We are evaluating Manufacturing Scheduling & Optimization (MSO, IC12816) and would like to clarify the differences between using MSO with and without IFS.ai.From the documentation, MSO appears to be available as a standalone product, while some references describe AI-powered scheduling, simulation, and scenario evaluation capabilities. However, it is not completely clear which functions require IFS.ai Activation Pass and which are available with standard MSO licensing.Could you please clarify the following?Can MSO (IC12816) be fully utilized without IFS.ai Activation Pass? What are the functional differences between: Standard MSO (without IFS.ai) MSO with IFS.ai Activation Pass Is there any official documentation or licensing guide describing the functional boundary between MSO and IFS.ai-related capabilities?Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.Thank you.

A. What is your idea?1) ClassificationChoose ONE: keep the applicable option and delete the rest.Opportunity for improvement New concept or idea2) Brief descriptionWhat happened, what is missing, or what could be better? Focus on the problem or opportunity (not the solution). Puropose an enhancement to the EMX system that introduces a “Print Part Tags” button within the physical inventory workflow. This button would: Be accessible before and after a shelf-level count is performed. Be located within the domain action menu of the count screen (or another easily accessible location within the workflow). Automatically generate and download a single PDF containing all necessary tags for the shelf being counted. Require no additional user input to download, leveraging the shelf-level association already present in the count. This enhancement would streamline the relabeling process and improve long-term inventory accuracy by making tag updates quick and effortless. B.
The Art of IndexingIn an online transactional database, administrators tend to avoid adding indexes because of their impact to inserts and updates. This is true in a laboratory setting, but a real-world system has to deal with a collection of concurrent workloads. OLTP ERP systems tend to be very read-heavy, in the neighborhood of 94% in my experience. Reducing the aggregate read load can free system resources, and if that means getting the system out of a heavily-loaded state, intelligently adding indexes can indirectly (and paradoxically) improve real-world write performance. Your mileage may vary. I recommend iteratively measuring the effects of tuning your own system rather than following any given recipe. "Match Case"Oracle string comparisons are case-sensitive, unlike Microsoft SQL or MySQL. This means the query hints in Enterprise Explorer do not accurately reflect the effects of the "Match Case" flag, since extra work is necessary to scrub the table's values to uppercase first,
Hi all, I met an issue for triggering a user interaction workflow when clicking Ok button of Order Address Dialog. It is an easy workflow which I attached it.Reproduce steps:Click Operations-> Single Occurrence Address Check Single Occurrence. Click pencil edit button Modify Delivery Address with some not quiet correct address, click OK Click OK for Order Address then error pops up quiet often though not every time. Or the page was stuck in Order Address Dialog.Two scenarios I met:Page was stuck Error page, I attached the error details.( General: Date = 2026-02-09T16:31:35.075Z Client version = 25.1.5.20251008163646.0 Browser name = Chrome User agent = Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/144.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 Edg/144.0.0.0 )
A Day Type was created to allow for ½ hour lunch period that is not auto-deducted. The intent is that Employees are required to clock in and out for lunch and that ½ hour would be counted towads time if they did not. It also allows the expected start time and end time of the scheduled day to display correctly. The result is that the ½ hour extra time between two normal time periods is not counted. Only the extra time before the start of the normal time period at 7am and the end of the normal time period at 3:30pm are counted if the Employee clocks in at 7am and out at 4pm yielding 8.5 hours instead of the expected 9 hours of reported time. Why is the extra time from 11- 11:30 not included?
Hi,We are currently using IFS APP9 with the Backflush method for material issuing.We have noticed that, for some shop orders, the system issues more material than the required quantity. Upon investigation, we identified the following two issues:Required Material Quantity Calculation, The required material quantity is displayed incorrectly, as the system appears to ignore decimal values during the calculation. Backflush Material Issue, During the backflush process, the system issues excess material, again seemingly without considering the decimal values. As a result, the issued quantity is higher than the actual requirement. I checked the inventory part→ master data. qty round up is properly updated.The lot size is 18, Reported qty is 17. Please help me on this. Regards, Tharakan 83 0 85
It’s great having Payment Information section in the Employee Masterfile which allows to define multiple bank accounts with different Value Types. However, if the customer uses the Expense Payment process in the Expense Management module, then the bank details needs to be defined under the Property Codes, as the relevant Property Codes has to be connected to the Employee Payment Methods Basic Data. Defining the same information in 2 different places in the employee Masterfile is just a duplication of data and during the data migrations and integrations 2 places needs to be updated. Is there a way to generate the employee payment files by using the Payment Information defined under the compensation data without using the Property Codes? Thanks
I’m trying to set up a third-party integration on using the Payroll Integration in 25r2.I’ve set up the Provider and am able to add a line to the Payroll Transfers page. However, when I select that line > New File, I get an error that the provider has not been fully implemented. I know at that point, it hits a “VrtTransferPayrolls” call but I’m stuck there.I don’t actually want to send a payroll file and I’m willing to create a dummy file if needed. My goal is to get Payroll Transaction lines to populate. I know that “new file” button will aggregate records from travel, time..etc. and create those lines, however - I just need to get over that error message.Is there any documentation on what is required for a third-party provider to be implemented so that the Transfer to Payroll assistant does not throw that error?

When registering arrivals, what is the difference between the Qty to Receive and the Inventory Qty to Receive? Example of fields:
I am currently working on a new pallet label using Crystal Reports within our IFS Apps 10 environment.As part of the label requirements, we need to print a GS1 QR Code on the pallet label. After reviewing the available options, we are considering using the IDAutomation QR Code Font and Crystal Reports Encoder to generate the QR code within Crystal Reports.As our Apps 10 environment is hosted by IFS, I would appreciate some guidance from anyone who has implemented a similar solution.Specifically:Does a Service Request need to be raised for the installation of the IDAutomation QR Code font and Crystal Reports encoder on the server hosting the Crystal Web Service? Has anyone successfully deployed IDAutomation QR codes in an IFS-hosted Apps 10 environment, and if so, were there any challenges or considerations? Would the installation require any system downtime or service interruption?Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Would like to check if anyone had come across with UK GAAP requirements related with leasing contracts in IFS and how the mapping should be done (FRS102 )Additional requirement for a short term lease not to include purchase options Ability to apply the Obtainable Borrowing Rate FRS 102 requires lessees to disclose a maturity analysis of its lease commitments for exempted short-term leases and leases of low-value assets.
Good morning,I interested to checked if anyone use this postings control in Romania and what accounts are linked to.Thank you in advance!
Hi all,We're on IFS Cloud (managed SaaS, hosted by IFS, 25R2) and we're evaluating enabling Analysis Models (Tabular) with self-hosted BI infrastructure. We've been working through the technical docs but, before committing, we'd love to hear from people who've actually been through it. Docs we've been looking at:Scenario 3 (BI infra in Azure, customer-managed): https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/25r1/050_reporting/010_analytics/010_analysis_models/000_am_tabular/000_biinfrasetup/010_infra_setup_azure/ Scenario 2 (Azure, IFS Cloud Remote): https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/25r1/050_reporting/010_analytics/010_analysis_models/000_am_tabular/000_biinfrasetup/009_infra_setup_azure_2/ Scenario 6 (on-prem): https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/25r1/050_reporting/010_analytics/010_analysis_models/000_am_tabular/000_biinfrasetup/020_infra_setup_onprem/A few questions for anyone who has deployed this in production — either managed service (IFS-hosted + Azure BI) or on-premise:Did you stand up the full stack (A
Hi everyoneWe are currently creating a concept for our development process for IFS Cloud Upgrade. We are planning to use DevOps on our own Doppelmayr Azure Tenant for handling all kind of Issues (BacklogItems, Developments, Bugs, Tasks, Testcases, etc.)We are used to mention the issue key in our commits for the customized sources (.plsql, .projection, etc), so that there is an automatic connection between the Issue and the source (visible in DevOps).The issue now is, that the code resides on IFS DevOps and the issues are on our DevOps so we cannot link the commits to the issues anymore. Has anyone the same requirenment or even a solution to that?Best RegardsMatthias
