Hi,May I know if there is any way to use LEFT_TRIM and RIGHT_TRIM together in an external file template?I am trying to remove both leading and trailing spaces from the Account field in an external voucher upload.When I apply both functions together, only the second function works.For example, if I use LEFT_TRIM as the first function and RIGHT_TRIM as the second, only RIGHT_TRIM is applied, and LEFT_TRIM is ignored.Thanks in advance.
In our setup we’re looking for the simplest way to regularly invoice a software license in IFS Cloud.Real-world scenario:We sell a software license that renews automatically every year and gets invoiced quarterly.Technically in IFSC:software license is represented with a non-inventory configurable sales part Service Contracts can trigger regular creation of Work Orders Request Contracts can trigger regular creation of RequestsThat’s why we’re wondering — what is the best and simplest way in IFS Cloud to handle recurring invoicing for something like a software license?And if the product is a non-inventory configurable sales part, how does that affect the setup or available options?Would love to hear how others have implemented similar recurring revenue models in IFS Cloud.
I am looking for users in Service that use Call Center Cases as well as Service Managment Requests. Especially for remote support we would like to get some real life experience of what to use when and from that derive proper simple work instructions. E. g. Customer calls → always create a case → if it leads to an invoice create a Request out of it (in the upcoming releases, the linking will probably be much easier) of alternative Always create a Request → if it needs internal escalation to other departments create a Case out of it, capture the hours on the way and invoice the request at the end.Anyone in a similar situation? Ideally in combination with mobile apps?
HI Folks, We have just launched our first plant in IFS Cloud (24R2) and are learning that using the IFS system as designed results in very slow throughput time for us to reserve, gather, scan, confirm , etc. all the steps to put parts onto a truck and out the door. Has anyone out there felt the same and found a faster approach?
What am I missing here? For some reason I cannot grant Part catalog right to any Permission Set. IFS version is IFS 10 Update 25. I can see Part Catalog here in Database Objects But it’s not here (is it supposed to be here under the Master Part to be available for grant). One user showed that he had Part Catalog under Master Part, but I cannot remember the submenu aymore, and it might have been dragged from other menu.
Am I correct in saying for posting control M28 and Non Inventory Sales Part the only option is “Sales Group”. As “Sales Group” is heavily linked to Sales Discounts its causing me issues meaning I would have to create hundreds of entries, when we only post to 5 accounts. The system seems geared to postings around customer and transaction types, but not many options around the part istelf.
Could someone explain under which conditions these postings are created? We have some trouble understanding the mathematics of these postings and I have tried to provoke the system to produce them in a test environment. But so far I have failed. My test cases are built upon serial tracked parts with Weighted Average, Cost per Part or Cost per Condition, and Distribution Orders between sites in the same company. NB that the same parts and sites have resulted both in INTORDTR transactions with ORDTREVAL postings and without such postings.
This diagram only illustrates the workflow steps and does not explain the logic and also in the video there are various price management techniques defined but not really the difference in the output is reflected so can you give a real world example showing the major difference.

Is Group/Sum option in Advanced Search functionality available in IFS Cloud version? There are several topics posted covering this topic. As the below entries were few years old, I was hoping something might have changed in between. Can I know that, will this Group/Sum option included in upcoming cloud version. If it is already available, is there any material on how this is done?Missing Group/Sum option in IFS Cloud #GSDTECH# | IFS CommunityAdvanced search (i.e. group, count, sum, etc) | IFS Community One of IFS customers has raised this question again and In App9 & App10 user had the possibility to conduct advanced searches by grouping values and summarizing values in table views. They wants to know whether this will be included in a release in the near future. Business Impact: User will have to use longer methods to find information that is required. Thank You & Best Regards,

Hi,We are trying to figure out how to go about batch sending ‘E-Invoices’ from IFS (24r2). Below are the steps we currently have setup:Create customer invoice for customer setup with E-Invoicing. Run ‘Batch Print Customer Invoices’ job and selecting the ‘Print/Send’ option. After running this, the E-Invoice is sent and invoice remains in a ‘Preliminary’ status. If we run the ‘’Batch Print Customer Invoices’ job again, the E-Invoices that have already been sent, are updated to a ‘Posted Auth’ status. This doesn’t make sense as the E-Invoices have yet to be accepted or rejected by the Authorizer we sent these to.Does anyone know how to set this up so that the only way E-Invoices are ‘Posted’ is if the E-Invoice is accepted? Also, are there things that can be done to prevent E-Invoices from ‘Posting’ E-Invoices that have not been accepted? Thanks for the help,Kevin

Hello Everyone, we want to change the order of list elements on the page PartCost.client These list elements are inside of a tab. I already learned that i can not do an Overtake like in the PL/SQL files. So i tried it this way: But the result was, that the tab was now duplicated in the Client on with the original order and one with my custom order. Is it even possible to change the order without using the PageDesigner? Greetings Daniel
Hi, About this functionality:https://docs.ifs.com/ifsclouddocs/24r1/lang/en/default.htm?openpage=https://docs.ifs.com/ifsclouddocs/24r1/lang/en/Manufacturing/ActivityUpdateStructRevAndAlt.htm When doing so, at least by default it doesn’t leave any trace in the shop order history. Can this be changed from settings, so that it would show what has been added/removed, or at least leave a record that this action has been run? Thanks alreadyVille
Hello,If I create a button in a Request order in cloud itself an it opens google and searches for the customer name. Example:https://www.google.com/search?q=${CustomerId} But, when I try to add a ExternalNavigationLink in the “Apps for Page Designer” page to add a Button in MWO that in this case searches the LocationName in google I get a Null value as result. I tried it with different ${values} but without succes. Does someone have an idea why this is happening ? (pictures below) The final idea is to create a button in mobile to that navigates to a sharepoint website and get directly to the customer folder. So if the LocationName = Customer1 on the worktask they can press the button and go to Sharepoint.com/Customer1 Many thanks in advance ! Versions tested in 25R1 and 25R2EA ${LocationName}https://www.google.com/search?q=${LocationName}https://www.google.com/search?q=Null
