We are in the process of upgrading IFS Cloud from 24R1 to 25R2 and noticed all of our lobbies (standard or custom) are impacted negatively when zooming the lobby over 100%. The elements will get “cut off” with no ability to zoom.Has anyone else been experiencing this? I couldn’t find any posts or knowedgbase articles on it.
Good morning,How can I configure file imports from a specific location, e.g., a network directory, using external file transactions in the IFS CLOUD system?I assume that I have a .csv file in a specific directory and the system has a schedule for reading the file from that directory.I am considering this in the context of currency imports and wondering whether it would be reasonable to use the file reader mechanism in this case.
Hi all,Here’s how you can download a CSV file by using a Command in IFS Cloud.We can easily achieve this by doing few adjustments in .client, .projection, .plsvc and .plsql files.(change in the .plsql file can be done in the .plsvc file too) It’ll look like thisAdd the command into the page that you want and click on it.It’ll get downloaded to your default download folder Here’s that downloaded CSV file Steps to achieve the above functionality .PLSQL File changeHere you’ll add a method.Basically you have to create a CLOB file > convert it to a BLOB file > return it.PROCEDURE Convert_to_Csv( csv_data_blob_ OUT BLOB)IS csv_clob_ CLOB;BEGIN csv_clob_ := 'Header 1' || ',' || 'Header 2' || ',' || 'Header 3' || ',' || 'Header 4'|| CHR(10); FOR rec_ IN 1..20 LOOP csv_clob_ := csv_clob_ || 'THRULK'||rec_ || ',' || 'THRULK'||rec_ || ',' || 'THRULK'||rec_ || ',' || 'THRULK'||rec_ || CHR(10); END LOOP; csv_data_blob_ := Utility_sys.Clob_To_Blob(cs

Hi, How can I use datepicker for quick report parameter in IFS Enterprise Explorer 10?
Hi, I’m exporting lobby pages from one environment to import into another (Cloud 23.1.3). Several of the lobby pages have link list elements that use datasources on the links. When exporting the lobby page, some of the datasources make it into the export file but not all (typically more are left out than included). I have not found anything to let me know why it’s not including all datasources in the export file. The result is that the lobby page is incomplete when imported into the other environment. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Thanks!

We are on IFS Cloud 25R1 and the Condition Generation is creating new PM work orders before the accumulated quantity meets the interval specified on the PM Action.Anybody know what might be causing this?
Hi Is there any official recommendation how to apply OOB? Just as it is? How to next follow when applying new SU/RU? Make then obsolete/delete it?
We are currently in IFS CLOUD 25R1. We successfully migrated all of our documents from our on prem non-IFS system to IFS CLOUD (600k files). Then we migrated the documents from database storage to our BLOB. However, we need to now migrate to the production environment. As we were only in UAT. To avoid migrating all the documents again. Could we clone the file storage from our UAT environment to our PROD environment. Then populate all of the needed tables that reference these files? If this is possible does anybody know what all tables would need populated. I know of EDM_FILE_TAB, DOC_ISSUE_TAB, but I wasn’t sure if there was another table I was missing. Any help on this would be useful. Thank you. *NOTE we cannot clone the database from UAT to production because we need our PROD environment to be a blank slate for our data migration.
We have run into an issue where shop order operations were accidentally over reported and then subsequently cancelled. However after cancelling the reports, the Operation Qty has become negative, the remaining open operations were closed, and the outside operation purchase order was cancelled. I was able to recreate this in our test environment. This issue occurs when the Adjust for Op Qty Deviation toggle is enabled and the over reported operation reports are cancelled in the incorrect order. Essentially what happened in the above screen shot was 141pc were completed through op 160. Then, 500pc were accidentally over reported on the same first 4 operations. Operator brought this to a supervisor to correct their mistake. The supervisor cancelled the operation reports, however they cancelled the report on op 50, then 75, then 110 and finally 160 which caused this compounding Deviation Qty, which in turn drove the Operation Quantities negative. If the reports get cancelled in the revers
Dears, can anyone of you point me what might cause this error when I’m trying to load Shop Orders to APB ? IFS10 App
Hello everyone,We recently migrated to IFS Cloud 25R2 (SU6) and noticed a change in the format of the "ActualShipDate" field in the Dispatch Advice messages (DESADV) we send.Before migration:"ActualShipDate": "2026-07-17T16:04:55" (local timestamp, no timezone indicator)Since the migration to 25R2:"ActualShipDate": "2026-07-20T10:29:20Z" (UTC timestamp, with "Z" suffix) This is causing issues on the receiving side, which expects the previous format without the UTC indicator.Has anyone else run into this on Dispatch Advice (DESADV), or on other outbound messages? Is this an intentional/documented change, and if so, is there a way to keep the previous format?For reference, we have also opened an official support case on this topic: CS0542209.Thanks in advance for any insight! Soumia
The following is stated in 25R2 release notes, I believe. But what does in mine in practice? Where can I do this configuration?Improved Integration with Custom Attributes in Outbound MessagesCustom attributes on business entities can now be included in outbound messages (e.g., Freight Booking, Dispatch Advice).Uses configuration over customization.Benefits:Enhanced flexibility.Cost savings.
Hi,I am working on the Build Place project. I downloaded the certificate from the Dev environment and used it in Report Designer, but I got the below error. I already added certificate to certificate folder under report designer.

I’m currently testing the 25R2 SU 4 update, and I need to raise a serious concern from a user perspective.One of the changes introduced — the new color scheme for conditional formatting in tables — is extremely problematic, especially in dark mode. The colors are now so similar that they’re practically indistinguishable. This completely defeats the purpose of conditional formatting, which is supposed to help users quickly identify important information at a glance.Frankly, this change feels like it wasn’t properly tested in real-world scenarios. If it had been tested in dark mode even once, this issue would have been immediately obvious. For users who rely on dark mode daily, this isn’t just an inconvenience — it actively disrupts workflows and increases the risk of missing critical data.
Hi all,We are using the standard IFS Outside Operation / Subcontracting process and have a question regarding the creation and management of purchase requisitions and purchase orders.When a shop order is released, IFS automatically creates the related purchase requisitions or purchase orders for the outsourced operation, depending on the selected supply type. In practice, we often face situations where:Previous operations are delayed and the planned quantity is not yet available for outsourcing. Only part of the quantity can be shipped to the supplier due to transportation capacity constraints/ delays in previous operations. The standard approach is to split the shop order, which updates the purchase requisitions/orders and creates new requisitions/orders with a later delivery date.However, managing these splits requires significant effort because it is difficult to determine exactly:How much quantity has already been reported as Ship WIP to Supplier. How much quantity is still waitin
Hello, Thank you for taking the time to read :) Do we have any way of knowing the connection between the Voucher, the GL Voucher Rows and the customer invoice line. For example, on one specific invoice, we may have multiple lines with different part numbers, prices and quantities which all translate to one posting per line in the general ledger. However we would like to find the link between these individual lines on the customer invoice and the individually posted lines on the GL voucher Rows screen. The only link we can find at the moment is between the invoice number and GL voucher rows, but not per line on the invoice (just using the header) For instance: The customer invoice below has two lines (as you can see there is POS 1 and POS 2 to represent each line) Looking into the GL We can see that there are two corresponding lines but they not have the reference for POS 1 and 2 as we saw above. Is there any way to connect the two lines in the invoice above to the the voucher rows pos
Hello, I am currently involved in a new IFS Cloud implementation project, and during integration testing we expect to apply fixes to our Use Place environment using Online Delivery. We are considering Online Delivery because we would like to minimize the amount of time that testing needs to be interrupted during delivery installation. Based on the technical documentation, my understanding is that the environment remains available for most of the installation window and becomes unavailable only during the actual cutover period. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has experience using Online Delivery. Questions: 1. How can we determine the exact cutover timing?- Is the cutover timing visible in Environment Studio, Scheduled Activities, CS Ticket, or another tool?- Can administrators know in advance when the temporary downtime will occur? 2. Can users of the target environment recognize or be notified when the cutover starts?- Is there any automatic notification from IFS?- Or does
Would like to know the concept of Sanity Build , what does it mean and why do we need to schedule it in cloud build place.
Why does it take 4 hours each for creating Sanity build and ordering a delivery environment? This is a significant amount of time.Can anything be done to improve the timing?
Hi Experts.When I created a Request, I notice that some Tasks are transferred to PSO with the status "DO NOT Schedule" immediately after creation. However, this does not happen for all Tasks—only for some of them. I have also verified that the "Manually Schedule" flag is not set to TRUE for these Tasks. I still can see these tasks in PSO as Do not Schedule. As I noted this only happens for tasks having Dependncies only.Question is how we can setup is so all NEW tasks appear in PSO in as "DO NOT Schedule" activities? I cannot find the exact toggle or an option that it will do the as above for all Tasks but not just for few? ThanksKM
Is there a way in IFS APPS 10 to specifically link an internal destination to specific part number? That way when MRP or Order proposal runs it will automatically pull in the designated internal destination ID.
