My customer is currently running IFS Cloud 25R1 SU3, and the business is interested in upgrading directly to 26R1 or 26R2. Is a direct upgrade path supported from 25R1 SU3 to these releases?If we proceed with this approach, what potential technical challenges, risks, prerequisites, and upgrade considerations should we be aware of during the planning and implementation phases? Could you please provide your recommendations and any associated limitations?
Hi All,Is it possible to do some configurations in Scheduling Workbench or PSO workbench?As an example, can we add “Service Notes” on this card under Task Details? an we arrangera Tabs in Activity Details? How you can change /re-order items in these cards and sections?TIA.
In IFS Cloud (and Apps10) a User that creates a Rental Part Requisition Line, cannot manually amend the Price. Users can amend the Requisition Price for a Part Requisition Line, but NOT for a Rental Part Requisition Line. Where companies have their DOA established at Purchase Requisition stage via Purchase Requisition Authorisation Rules, there is not way for a User to amend the Rental Price without going through the longer RFOQ process. If prices fluctuate for Rent In Parts and the SFPP record(s) cannot be easily maintained across a number of Suppliers for the Purchase Part, then a User is forced to either have the PR Rental Line authorised at the wrong value, or go through the RFOQ process which is too long when a only a simple price amendment prior to Authorisation is required. The Rental Price CAN be amended at Purchase Order Stage so this feels like an oversight. It prevents companies having a robust Authorisation processes for Rent In Parts and can result in DOA’s being bypassed.

以下の要件は、カスタムアドオンや拡張なしでExcelアドインだけで実装できるのかお聞きしたいです。Excelアドインを使って、資材要求から商品発給までの登録を実装しました。注釈フィールドをキー属性として注文を作成・管理したいと考えています。注文は同じ注釈値で統合されるべきです。同じ注釈の注文がすでに存在する場合、特定の条件が満たされた場合にのみ既存の注文に新しい行項目を追加したいと考えています。上記の要件をExcelアドインだけで実装する方法はありますか?現在の実装方針は添付のExcelファイルに記録しています。この機能を実現するために変更や設定できる部分があれば教えていただけませんか?
1) ClassificationLocalization – Japan / Legal and Regulatory Compliance2) Brief DescriptionWe request standard Japanese localization functionality to support compliance with the Act on Preventing Delay in Payment to Small and Medium-Sized Entrusted Business Operators in Relation to Manufacturing Consignment.The requested functionality should:Identify suppliers and transactions subject to the Act.Prevent the release of zero-value purchase orders and control price reductions after order placement.Ensure that the scheduled payment date falls within 60 days of the actual receipt date.Context and ScopeCurrently, these requirements must be addressed through custom fields, Quick Reports, BPA validations and manual controls.This approach presents the following risks:Missing or incorrect classification of applicable suppliersReliance on manual checksComplex BPA logic connecting supplier attributes, receipt dates and payment termsHigh regression-testing effort after IFS Cloud upgradesCustomer-sp

Are any IFS Cloud users using the Project module to plan and manage installation or construction work, with a mix of subcontractors and internal installation teams? We are particularly interested in how you handle: Flexible work templates: Can you create reusable templates for typical work steps such as groundworks, drainage, foundations, installation, inspection, etc., while still allowing a project manager to add or remove individual tasks for each project? Resource and subcontractor management: How do you manage a pool of subcontractors and internal installation teams, their availability, and assignment to projects? Visual capacity planning: Is there a calendar or timeline view where planners can easily see each subcontractor or installation team's existing workload and available capacity, and identify which teams still have openings for new projects? Planning and scheduling: Are you using IFS Projects alone for installation planning, or combining it with other IFS functionali
I've looked at the information below regarding the Data Services Foundation, but I don't currently understand what it can do. Do you know of any websites or documents where I can find out what it can do now?

I have a purchased raw part and on the supplier for purchase part record. I added a price list for a new price of the part some time in the future. However, when I enter a purchase order line for a wanted delivery date beyond the effective date of the new price, the system still displays the supplier for purchase part price from the general tab. Is that how it is supposed to work?Thanks!
All,I must admit that my experience with the MRP Spares Forecast functionality is a bit lacking. When working with a customer on this functionality, several questions arose: 1) Why is the system mandating online consumption flag when the forecast consumption is still happening?2) Is there an option for forward forecast with online consumption flag turned on3) Since we cannot add parts to spare parts family forecast without the online consumption flag turned on, what are the repercussions of this approach:Can we turn it on while assigning the spare parts to the family and turn it off via a script in the background? 4) Are there are any implications of using spare parts forecast without the online consumption flag? Thanks!
Would you like to know the details in the Tailor Guide below?https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/23r2/040_tailoring/225_configuration/150_config_best_practice/#application_configuration_packagesIt is recommended to check the ACP into the Customer Solution Repository so that Impact analysis of updates can be performed.How can impact analysis be done? For example, when applying an RU, we can analyze the layer using the Update Analyzer tool, reflect the changes to the repository, and create a TOP environment, but I don't think the configuration can be analyzed using the Update Analyzer tool.How do you analyze the configuration before applying RUs when applying RU?
We recently completed an upgrade from IFS Applications 10 to IFS Cloud 25R2 and encountered two items that did not appear to migrate as expected.1. Custom RDL Report LayoutsThe custom Report Layout definitions were present after the upgrade, however the associated client-developed RDL binaries were not available in the target IFS Cloud environment. As a result, the layouts existed but the report content itself had to be redeployed.Questions:Is it expected that custom RDL binaries are not migrated as part of the Apps10 to IFS Cloud upgrade process? If so, what is the recommended migration approach for customer-developed RDL binaries? Are there any prerequisites or upgrade steps that would cause the binaries to be excluded during migration?2. Custom Lobby Data SourcesWe also observed that customer-developed Lobby Data Sources from Apps10 were not present after the upgrade to IFS Cloud. Standard functionality appears intact, but the custom data sources had to be recreated manually.Questio
The Customer Statement of Account report appears to duplicate the customer PO number from the line below it when the first entry (in our case a Collective Invoice) doesn’t have a customer PO number directly attached to it in IFS. The Collective Invoice will show a PO number but when the Statement of Account runs it won’t pull that and will instead fill it in with the one below. Does anyone know what might be going on here?
I have a workflow that is trigger after a Projection call:Projection: CreateRepairWorkOrderAssistantHandling Call: CreateRepairActionI want to be able to use the response from that call inside my workflow (i.e the WoNo) but I noticed it is not part of the payload that gets sent to the workflow.Is there a way to get that response and use it in the workflow? I thought that triggering it “after” would allow me to use the response value of that call.
A. What is your idea?1) ClassificationOpportunity for improvement2) Brief descriptionThe customer wants to use contractor-sourced materials to create a single Purchase Order for the entire job completed by the service contractors. However, the Payment Lines on the Request Task are not reflecting the materials, which means we cannot create a Purchase Order.This issue arises because the inventory parts are not being recognized in the Purchase Parts tab of the service contractor, as the contractor's scope is set as intercompany.This functionality needs to be implemented in future releases.B. Context and scope1) Who is affected?Customers Partners2) FrequencyFrequentlyC. Value and impact1) What is the business outcome?Improves productivity or efficiency Enhances user experience Enables new capability Supports compliance or reduces risk2) Impact scaleChoose ONE: keep the applicable option and delete the rest.4 — Company-wide3) WorkaroundThe user could configure material as a fixed cost
I’m on FSM 6.28. I would like to create an input xml with a control type where I provide two options like Yes or No, but it doesn’t save as Y or N, but pre-defined values where Y = ‘value_1’ and N = ‘value_2’ or where I set to nothing, for example N = ‘ ‘. Or something like a checkbox control type but it doesn’t save it as Y or N. Also, am I able to display more than one control in one message?Below is an example of what I was trying to achieve and would like to know if that is possible. <update_request> <request> <request_id xpath_node="//request_hierarchy_select_result[@result_name='detail']/request/request_id" /> <action_status>@user_input[id=convert_credit_prompt, table_name=request, column_name=action_status, control_type=CheckBox, choices=Yes:CONVERT_CREDIT;No:, required=Y, height=30]</action_status> <update/> </request> </update_request>
One of my customers is encountering errors of various types when they run the costing calculation and the encounter of the error shuts down the background job. So they correct the error and rerun the process. Now, if they run the process again and another error for another part is encountered, the second background job also fails.Does anyone know if there is a process that can pre-check the calculation for all the possible errors without actually writing the newly calculated costs to the part cost records? Thanks
