Hi everyone,Hi everyone,I have a question about a configurable item. Where can I find information on how the cost of individual operations was determined for this item?For non-configurable items, there is the Part Routing Cost screenThanks in advance for your help
In Applications 10, we use the Solution Manager to create users (Solution Manager/Security/Users/Create User)This offers a nice and neat option with all types accesses visible in one page (Permission sets, companies and sites, business roles for all our modules, e.g. Buyer setup, posting authorization etc.). The Summary tab is an excellent place to verify the result of the user setup. It is easy to verify and amend access, e.g. adding a site and purchase authorization basic data for that user and the new site. If applicable, I can duplicate the setup of a user as the basis for new user and then quickly fix In Cloud, the user creation is just quite painful.(Solution Manager/Users/User)You can only do a very small portion in the User creation page, and it only contains company - not the sites. It seems you have to go module by module to add basic data (much like it was back in IFS Applications 98!). You lack the overview, seems you may have to build a quick report to extract the data int
On the Document Defaults per Object page, in the documentation for the page, I was trying to follow an example given to set up a Default Document Class on a specific page (ManSuppInvoice) based on a specific Document Class and the Users default company. (INVOICES_#COMPANY#) The field for the Doc Class is a drop down menu and I can only select Doc Classes, i cannot manually enter any document classes. I tried the same thing in Apps 10 and I can manually enter the entire INVOICE_#COMPANY# in the Document Class field. Is this a bug or is there a way to update the Document Defaults per Object page to allow a manual entry for the Doc Class?
Are there any specific steps to follow when using fixed assets object in business reporter to fetch values?
Is there a ‘boxed’ product to support the integration of IFS with TQL?
Hello. When we financially complete a project, costs are being booked to the original expense accounts instead of COGS. This is causing an account mismatch against the reversal of revenue recognition, which is booking to COGS. For example, assume account 7000 is supplies and account 5000 is COGS. If we purchased supplies worth $10 and tagged it to a project, then that $10 initially hits account 7000 then eventually hits WIP. Then when revenue recognition is run, it hits account 5000 COGS. The following period, the rev rec reverses and it hits WIP And COGS. But when the project is financially completed, the posting hits WIP and account 7000 instead of COGS. So there would be a credit in account 5000 but a debit in account 7000, so there is a mismatch. Is there a way to route cost postings from financial project completion to COGS instead of the original expense account? I would appreciate any thoughts or suggestions.
Hello, Using Apps for Page Designer, I configured a field as Required to ensure users do not overlook it when entering time through the MWO Service App. However, this change does not appear to be reflected in the MWO Service App, as users are still able to save their entries without completing the field.Could you please advise if I am missing any additional configuration or step required for this change to take effect in the MWO Service App?IFS version 25R2Thank you,Wafaa
I have a question about *_PASSWORD = CREATE_RANDOM_PASSWORD in the define.tem file for IFS Cloud.Could you let me know the following?Is the password generated by CREATE_RANDOM_PASSWORD stored anywhere?If yes, where can I find it?Is it possible to view the generated password in plain text after deployment?If not, what is the supported way to reset it?Is there any official documentation that explains this behavior?Also, the public documentation for define.tem looks a bit different from the actual define.tem file in our environment.For example, our file includes variables like CAMUNDA_APPOWNER, IAM_APPOWNER, DBADMPROXY_OWNER, and RAISE_NEW_CUSTOM_OBJ_INVALIDS.If there is an updated official reference for define.tem that includes these variables, could you please share it?Reference:https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/26r1/070_remote_deploy/010_installing_fresh_system/200_installing_ifs_cloud/050_deploy_db/090_db_deploy_config/?h=define.tem#configuration_without_parameters
!--startfragment>Issue Observed on work tasks:While assigning work, the Allocations / Direct Allocations section did not show the full list of resources. The “Apply Constraints” toggle was disabled to check if it affected visibility. Even after disabling it, resources from other resource groups were still not displayed.!--endfragment> Under Allocations Tab:In 24R1 Release: I was able to see all resources list under the allocations tab upon disabling the ‘Apply Constraints’ button. Whereas, in 25R1 version, even after disabling the toggle button, only the resources listed under the specific resource group/demand were displayed.Under the Direct Allocations tab:The resource list is empty. Not even a single resource id was displayed. So, currently, i cannot assign any specific resources to the work tasks and unable to transfer them to MWO.Has anyone else run into the same behavior or noticed similar missing resources?!--endfragment>!--startfragment>!--startfragment>Any guid
Hi Team, Iam using IFS cloud & PSOI have a query regarding the Slot Usage Rule configuration, specifically the difference between Maximum Utilization (%) and Maximum Slot Utilization (%).I tested both scenarios by setting the utilization to 10%, but in both cases I am getting the same output. I would like to understand how these two fields are expected to behave differently.Current ScenarioI have 4 FTs with the same skill, and each FT has 8 hours of availability:4 FTs × 8 hours = 32 FT-hours total availabilityWith a 10% utilization target:32 × 10% = 3.2 FT-hoursMy expectation is that the system should allow up to 3.2 FT-hours of booking utilization across the overall available capacity, irrespective of which slot the booking falls into.I have two slots:7:00 AM – 11:00 AM 11:00 AM – 3:00 PMCurrent BehaviorWhen the utilization reaches approximately 1.6 hours in the 7:00–11:00 AM slot, the system stops showing the first slot and only shows availability in the 11:00 AM–3:00 PM slot.Thi

The time registration has been confirmed and approved in the Time Registration screen. However, when I pull the report in the Project Transactions screen and filter by Approved = No, the approved time entries are still being displayed for a few employees.Based on the approval status in the Time Registration screen, these records should be marked as approved and should not appear when filtering by Approved = No in the Project Transactions screen. We have observed that when the manager removes the authorization and then re-authorizes the time entry, the record no longer appears in the Project Transactions screen when filtered by Approved = No. Could you help us to find the reason for this behavior?
Hello,I am performing "Calculate MS Level 1" job for a selected single part:However after processing I can see warning messages regarding many more other parts:Is the selective calculation running still for all parts by default and standard? Or is it just validating all of the parts?I am not sure if this is correct and affecting functionality as I would expect this job would validate only a single part that I run the job specifically for.Thank you in advance for help and explanation.Best regards,Kasia
I’d love to see Business Reporter be able handle the option to decide whether to include the hold table vouchers or stick with updated vouchers only.
Our entire business is set up as one inventory part set to Cost Per Configuration. Over the years, we now have 50,000+ configurations IDs on that one inventory part. How can I calculate and save standard cost? I know I can do it one-by-one using Interim Orders or Shop Orders, but I need a systemic solution for all 50,000. I’m looking for something similar to ‘All Parts Cost Calculation’. Any help would be appreciated!
Hi Community PO Authorizer gets the following message when trying to reject authorization. How to find the projection relevant ‘Reject Authorization Step’ popup screen in order to grant it to the necessary permission set? Thanks,Asela
Hello,Has anyone enabled Near-Zero Downtime in their IFS Cloud environments yet?We’re moving to 26R1 and have already uplifted our customizations to support the new framework. However, when we raised a case with IFS, we were informed that they’re currently unable to enable Near-Zero Downtime for us.I’d be interested to hear from anyone who has already enabled it:Have you experienced any issues so far? How long does a typical delivery take? What kind of downtime are you seeing in practice? Has anyone had a delivery where the application didn’t go down at all?Any real-world experience or lessons learned would be really helpful. IFS documentation mentions that Delivery Continuity is currently under controlled rollout, so I’m particularly interested in hearing from customers/partners who already have it enabled.

Environment: IFS Apps 10Background We have a set of saved searches on Site on Purchase Requisition, that filter by site cluster, e.g.:contract IN (SELECT contract FROM &AO.site_cluster_node WHERE site_cluster_id = '<CLUSTER>')These saved searches are stored on a shared base profile that all user profiles inherit from. The business requirement isWhen a new Site is added to basic data (Site Cluster), a custom event should fire a custom PL/SQL block which builds the site-relevant saved-search condition and writes it as a new record into the base profile — so the new site automatically appears in everyone's saved searches without manual profile edits. What I've found so farSaved searches are stored in FNDRR_CLIENT_PROFILE_VALUE as a CLOB, but the PL/SQL condition is not stored as readable text — it's held in profile_binary_value as a serialized/encoded string. This query fetches the relevant records:SQL:SELECT Fndrr_Client_Profile_Api.Get_Owner(t.profile_id) PROFILE_ID, t.*
I’m trying to set up Segregation of Duties in Cloud. One of the things Finance wants controlled is who can add new Code Part Values. Read Only access is OK, but Full access should be controlled. There are no Projection Actions or Entity Actions associated with this projection.Is there a way to build this functional area such that Read Only access is ignored, but Full access is flagged?

We have a Code Part defined as a project code part - it is been suggested to repurpose it as a ‘normal’ code part. Obviously as it has been set up and active and used (sparingly) it is not letting me change it to ‘No Function.’I know using it as a normal code part will not be good - but would anyone be able to give me a list of limitations / issues we'll face? Thanks,MAtthew
