Scheduling Demystified describes changes and additional capabilities related to scheduling in IFS Cloud 25R1. People with experience in 24R2 should focus on chapters marked with 25R1☀️ and 25R1↗️.Chapters with 🖋️ provide new or additional details for features that were already available in previous releases.To clearly point out where something can be found in the application, navigation paths are now highlighted with 📁 (IFS Cloud) and ☰ (PSO). They have also been aligned with the New Navigation Structure.Features that rely on AI are marked with ✨.The document has expanded significantly in recent releases, which resulted in the need to restructure its content. Topics have been reorganized based on relevant user personas, such as dataset setup and administrative tasks. The chapter titles now specify their applicability to Dispatch Console (DC), PSO, or both. If you find this document helpful, please consider leaving a 👍 LIKE.

Hi All,I have an issue with creating PO when the quantity in the Material MR WO and PR it doesnt match.Is this by default we cannot have different quantity between MMR and PR?Please advise.
In IFS Cloud (24R2), we have a Migration Job to load our Fixed assets in. We want a custom PLSQL job to do the equivalent of clicking the “Investment” command button, but we are struggling to get this to work.We have tried running set_investment from finite_state_machine, and also by creating a background job. Neither work.Here is my code (from FaObject-Cust.plsql): @OverridePROCEDURE Finite_State_Machine___ ( rec_ IN OUT fa_object_tab%ROWTYPE, event_ IN VARCHAR2, attr_ IN OUT VARCHAR2 )IS info_ VARCHAR2(32000) := NULL; rowkey_ VARCHAR2(32000) := NULL; objid_ VARCHAR2(32000) := NULL; objversion_ VARCHAR2(32000) := NULL; BEGIN --Add pre-processing code here super(rec_, event_, attr_); --Add post-processing code here IF rec_.rowstate = 'SystemStart' THEN Fa_Object_API.Get_Id_Version_By_Keys___ ( objid_ , objversion_, rec_.company, rec_.object_id);--method #1 Client_SYS.Clear_Attr(attr_); Client_S
Hello, We have been having issues with Intrastat. We found that the invoice numbers would not populate due to a time zone problem. We are a global company and we are primarily in the us/eastern time zone. We found that the invoice id would not populate due to mismatch due to time offset and local/UTC interpretation. I was wondering how people may of gotten around with this problem? Thanks.
Hello,I am working on a project with standalone PSO and I cannot see Simulation Workspace, even though I should have all the permissions to view it.Based on your knowledge, could this be something related to the installation steps? Or is there something I need to check within the environment that I am missing?Can someone advise me?ThanksStefania
Is it possible in Cloud to enter a vendor agreement that you are matchning invoices with until the amount of the agreement is used? For example if you enter a rental agreement of 4 years of lets say 48000 EUR. You are then receiving one vendor invoice per month for 4 years and since the agreement is already signed you dont need any further authorizations on the individual invoices. You would like that the invoices are deducted from the amount of the agreement until the amount is zero. This function is usually included in external applications such as Visma Proceedo. We can of course use purchase orders for this but then we will have to do a PO row per expected invoice and someone needs to do goods receipt each month. Is this possible in IFS10 or in Cloud?
I’m getting this error when trying to migrate data to a Custom TAB. ORA-02291: integrity constraint (IFSAPP.C_PART_INTERCHANGE1_CRK) violated - parent key not found Method List Attribute Source mappingNote: I tried to retrieve the objkey from the parent container and set it using the source mapping, but I'm still getting the same error.Any idea how to resolve this?
Hi Team,There is a custom event in Apps10 to generate streams message and how can we apply the same in cloud 24R2? Can anyone let me know on the url to use as i tried in multiple ways it is not working as expected. Any leads on this would be much appreciated. Thank you When the custom field is modified the notification generates for certain users and when clicked it should redirect to the specific record which isnt filtering in cloud like it works in apps10 Apps10 URL:ifsapf:frmManualSupplierInvoice?COMPANY=&COMPANY&external_search=OBJKEY=<VALUE_URL_ENCODE>&NEW:ROWKEY</VALUE_URL_ENCODE> Options tried in cloud:page/ManualSupplierInvoice/Form?$filter=external_search=OBJKEY=<VALUE_URL_ENCODE>&NEW:ROWKEY</VALUE_URL_ENCODE>This redirects to the Manual Supplier invoice page but doesnt filter the record Regards,Rakesh
Hi, In IFS Apps 10, we had the ability to create custom menus that could call external URLs. These URLs could receive parameters from the page, and we could also use context substitution variables such as #DB_SID# or #USER#. For example, a URL might look like this:http://<URL>/db_sid=#DB_SID#.In the Cloud version, we can still call external URLs by creating a custom command button using the Page Designer. We can also continue to pass page parameters to the URL. However, as far as I know—and based on the documentation I’ve found—it seems that context substitution variables are no longer supported.Does anyone know if there is a replacement for these context substitution variables in the Cloud version? Specifically, is there a way to pass environment-specific information (like the database SID or user ID) to the URL from the Page Designer? /Michael
We are trying to change tax code for some purchase order lines with no no part and getting the below error when running the migration job ,is there any other way to update this field please
Hi all, Users can select the theme of application: Light or Dark. In Appearance Configuration we have defined colours and fonts for both types. The “Light” theme is alwas default (I do not know why...). Those users who want to work in “Dark” theme - they have to select it every time.Is it possible to store the choise for each user in its user profile, so application opens with the theme selected “last time”?Thank you in advance.Br.

I have developed a Java transformer that converts JSON data into Excel using Apache POI libraries which generates an Excel file by extracting data from payroll transactions. The transformer returns the Excel output as a Base64-encoded string. Everything works correctly when I test it through IFS Developer Studio, the Excel file is generated without any issues. However, when I upload the same transformer to IFS Cloud and run it there, the process gets stuck in processing status.Has anyone encountered similar behavior when returning Base64-encoded files from a custom transformation in IFS Cloud?Is there any other feasible way to achieve this?Any insights or recommendations would be highly appreciated.
Hello,At the end of September, when Microsoft disabled legacy authentication and we switched to using Conditional Access-based rules, users started reporting that IFS crashes at the point where the login token should be renewed. The Microsoft sign-in window appears, but then the IFS application crashes during that process, and any unsaved data is lost. We are using IFS10 Update 25. EE Client is used.Is there anything that can be done to prevent this or is there coming some software changes that might fix this.
IFS seems to automatically assign colours to Pie charts. Result in our example with Delivery Reliability is that the largest number of records (On time) is red and the lowest (late) is green! Not really what a user would expect :-( Any plans to make the pie colour settings adjustable?
Apps 10 UPD 19 - Linux MiddlewareHopefully someone can help with this issue.We have received a new IFS Component (a CRO one) via a release.

Hi, Please provide the mapping steps in IFS CLOUD for CAMT.053.001.08 files and processing steps
Hi,We’re planning to install IFS Cloud using the air-gapped deployment method for security reasons. We’ve been waiting for the air-gapped option to be released which it was in 22R1. However, there is very little information or technical documents describing the process. Where can we find the installation guide and requirements for an air-gapped solution?Thanks
I have noticed some views used for data sources (Parquet Files) get delivered without any row data once they land in our ADLS gen2 storage. CUSTOMER_ORDER, PURCHASE_ORDER for example. Other views work absolutely fine - seems to be hit or miss. Does anyone have any idea why that would be the case? I copy the query used by the data pump job into a quick report, and it returns data just fine. Is there a specific account running the job that I can check/update its permissions?
Hi everyone,I’m testing the new Informational Characteristics in 25R1. According to the documentation, they should be usable for calculating values in other elements.However, they don’t show up as selectable fields in the configuration formula.I’ve linked the Informational Characteristics to the Configuration Family as required, but they still don’t appear in the formula setup.Is this expected behavior, or could it be a bug?
Hello everyone.I'm researching IFS CLOUD EAM implementation cases in the utilities sector, more specifically in the energy sector for power distribution. If anyone could help with references to which clients worldwide are using IFS Cloud in this segment, it would be very helpful.We are studying how to use the linear asset structure to segment distribution networks so that sections can undergo periodic inspection plans without leaving elements (that are not controlled fixed assets) out of these inspections, and how to segment all interconnections into parts.Thank you if anyone can share any references.
Is these anyone to create a link between work order to several WBS project ?or link between work order task to several WBS project ?
Please can someone tell me what the difference between these 2 options are? What does it do differently from a finance perspective?On the example the users provided to me, they dont have the option to ‘cancel preliminary invoice’ as its greyed out but they can ‘remove credit/corr. invoice’. Therefore i wanted to know the difference, and added to that, when would the option to cancel be active?Thank youStacy
Is there any way to add bookmarks globally in IFS CLOUD, instead of doing manually for every user?
In IFS Cloud, I have the following lobby navigation:page/ChangeRequests/List?$filter=(CrResponsible ne null and CrResponsible eq $[CR_RESPONSIBLE]) or ( CrResponsible eq null)My desired result is to navigate to ChangeRequests based on the CrResponsible user selected and show all of that repsponsible users Change requests. If you select a line with a null CrResponsible user it is navigating to all the change requests with a null Responsible field (this is working as expected). However, If I select a non null CrReponsible record, It is navigating to all that users change requests + all of the null responsible change requests. How do I edit this navigation so that it only navigates to change requests associated with the CrResponsible user selected in the lobby element? and Only navigate to the null CrResponsible values if null record is selected? Thanks,
