Has anyone had issues with material reservations on Parked Shop Orders preventing a Purchase Req from generating on Shop Order Outside Operations?  Normally, once a Shop Order is created in the Planned status (usually from a Customer Order), we will put the Shop Order on the Parked status while approvals and verifications are being done.  And, once everything is in order, it is unparked and then put to Released status, which triggers the Purchase Req for a Shop Order Outside Operation.   Unfortunately, there are times in which material for a Shop Order on Park status will get reserved on the Shop Order Materials Tab (normally because it is in high-demand and the team is trying to ensure it is not used elsewhere).  If this happens, though, the Shop Order when unparked will go straight to a Reserved status, and will not go back to Planned status.  It will also never go to a Released status, nor is there a way to manually “release” the Shop Order unless you unreserve all the material.  An

Hello,Does anyone know if there is a way to turn off ‘Match case’ on all screens in Cloud? It defaults on some screens but not all. Account Contact is one of them. Apps10 allowed it in System Parameters > User Assistance, but I can’t find anything in Cloud (23R1).  Thanks!

Hi Guys, I having a trouble with reconciling  Received Not Invoiced Report to GL. Does any of you know exactly which Posting Types should be considered  when matching Received Not Invoiced Report. With some investigation I understand that M10, M14 and M18 should be considered. There are other types of postings like M189 and M196 posted to similar account. But I do not see these amounts related to Arrival charges in Received Not Invoiced Report.   Thanks

Need a little guidance here.  I created a lot-controlled part with a lot size of 1 and it created the as-built structure for each lot I created.  I have a repair structure and a repair routing, and I create a repair shop order and ensure that I turn on multi-level repair before I save the shop order. I am getting the materials that I may issue as part of the repair as materials as well as the finished good part on the shop order materials.  I then manually reserve the lot number of the finished good part but here’s the rub. I am NOT getting the multi-level repair structure as I have in the past with serialized parts.  What am I missing??The documentation says it’s possible but…Thanks in advance!

Hi,When using excel migration to upload data, when a date is passed, it gets inserted as the prior date. For example, if I am loading external payments with date 5/20/2023 in my excel, once uploaded and going into IFS, it shows as 5/19/2023.The same behavior is observed when a new entity is created and excel migration is used to upload the data.When the data is indicated as 1/1/2023, it uploads as 12/31/2022 automatically.Is this the known behavior of excel migration? if not, what needs to be done to resolve this issue?Best Regards,Dinesha

Dear Team, I am running the external supplier invoice load process through batch load in IFS Cloud (22R2). It appears that the system only recognizes the exact file name and I have been unable to find a mechanism to inject files with different suffixes, such as ExtSuppInv001.txt, ExtSuppInv002.txt, and so on.Is there anyone who is aware of how to accomplish this? If so, could you please share the solution?

I’m currently working on a Workflow where I need a list of distinct values.I need to retrieve a collection of distinct suppliers from a set of Purchase Requisition Lines.I’m currently using an API element to fetch all Purchase Req Lines that meet a certain set of condition e.g. from a specific site. For those Purchase Req Lines the same Vendor/Supplier exists multiple times. However I actually need a distinct list of VendorNo in a collection for a Sub Process.I have tried multiple ways to achieve this but I haven't succeeded yet. Anybody have a suggestion for a solution?

Hi,One of my customer is planning to use MCPR (Multi Company Project Reporting) for a large number of companies. They currently have about 80 companies with in total 2.000 projects. It should be possible for each employee to work on a project in any other company. This results in a large number of MCPR connections. We are wondering if this large number or connections can result in perfomance issues.Do you have experience with using MCPR time registration with a large number of connections? Do you experience performance issues with this?Kind regards,Paul Beekmans

Hello,The company has work bench clocking to record Labor hours, which works well. We are trying to introduce T&A clocking for payroll and fire recall only. However, when we have added the terminals, the clock attaches to the labor class and absorbs labor and overhead charge. Please can you help me to detach the manufacturing labor from the T&A clocking but continue with the Manufacturing labor for the bench top clocking?Thank you
