Hello,after 25R1 installation we have issue with unprocessed travel requests (change of status for example) because newly added fields with time zone. On client value is displayed but not in table/view. How this can be easily solved?Thanks.Tomas
Hi,The system is firing the below error message when I try to acknowledge the payment order which consists of a non-supplier payment. As per the error message, it is requesting to use the mixed payment screen instead. However as per the IFS online documentation, the ‘automatic supplier payment on file’ activity diagram shows that non-supplier payments can be done using payment orders. It doesn’t mention anything about using mixed payment screen for non-supplier payments.The IFS version I am using is Apps 10 upd 15. Appreciate if anyone could share your thoughts on this and advise how I should go about with processing non-supplier payments. Thank you!
Hello everyone, do we have any customers who have implemented the Serbian localization?
Dears,Iam facing an issue, that when the technician logs in the MWO. On the PSO, the Failed To Logon exception keeps on, even having downloaded/accepted tasks on the technician´s mobile. The exception will clear only when the technician starts executing the activity or in the MWO->Service Status (ShiftOFF/ShiftON). Is it the right way when finishing shift should go off shift on mobile, then after log in the next shift go On shift?
Dear All,When material is issued from MWo Maintenance as part of remote warehouse (Van Stock), MMR (Maintenance Material Requisition)will be created in IFS Cloud through sync process. Is there a way to identify that MMR is created through MWo. I checked if there is any column in the view or table but could not find any column which distinguishes between IFS Cloud and MWo MMRs.IFS Cloud Version: 24R2Thanks for your time and thanks in advance for your responses.Regards,Srinivas
Bookmarks on thin clients are being deleted but reappear immediately upon page refresh.This strange, cyclic behavior only affects users on a custom context page, and the bookmarks are not defined in their user profiles.
I’ve just had a manager reach out to me and show me this phenomenon. When using any date column in cloud, choosing the between operator, if I scroll the list on the left and then select the date the list on the right goes down to 2099. Is this happening for anyone else? I’ve never noticed it if I click on the month in the left hand pane next to the calendar and select, only if I scroll.
Hello community,I’m trying to display the voucher types in the voucher type screen, but the list does not appear.Could this be related to permissions or missing setup under company ?Do you have any idea what could be missing?Thank you in advance !
Hello community,Our client upgraded to 25R1 recently, and since then, for “lot tracking” part, an asteric “*” is filled by default in Register Arrival > Receive with Serial/Lots. Therefore there is no “flag” to fill up that number.Previously in 24R2, whenever the assistant Receive with Serial/Lots was opened, the field Lot/Batch No turned empty, which was forcing the user to enter the Lot No. It lead to the following misleading behavior:In case of “Receive to stock”, we get an error message after validating the reception confirmation pop-up (Your part will be received ...) : “a lot number must be entered for this part”. Obviously, since the Lot Batch No is “*”.However in case of “Receive into QA”, there’s no warning, and parts gets moved to QA location without Lot Batch No. Warning only comes after inspection, at the move to stock stage, which is late.Is this a product behaviour since 25R1 ? or a bug ?Thank you very much for your kind help!

Hi Everyone,We have observed an issue in the Subcontract module in the 25R1 environment. Scenario: A subcontract, its revision, and items are created. A valuation is created, and ‘Valuation value’ is entered at the item level. When trying to receive the application, the following information message appears:“Application Total Values are not entered on some items.” (Note: There is only one item available) Current Workaround:Manually updating the Application Work Value automatically updates the Application Total Value. After this manual update, the application can be received without that information message. Questions / Observations: Once the Valuation Value is updated, shouldn’t the Application Work Value update automatically as well? Is there a way to automate this update, so manual intervention is not required? Are there any impacts on pre-postings if the Application Work Value is left blank? We would appreciate guidance from the community regarding the correct approach or
Hello everyone,I’m trying to update the QtyToIssue value of a line with the QtyRemToIssue value from the header.I’ve created a BPA (Business Process Automation) that retrieves this value by calling the attached function.However, when I run it, I get the following error message:class java.lang.Integer cannot be cast to class java.math.BigDecimal (java.lang.Integer and java.math.BigDecimal are in module java.base of loader 'bootstrap')It seems there’s a type mismatch when the value is passed between the BPA and the function — probably because the field or variable is defined as Integer instead of BigDecimal. Has anyone faced a similar issue or knows how to properly handle this conversion (e.g., using an expression or a to_number() / BigDecimal.valueOf() call in the function)?Thanks in advance for your help!
Hello all Is it possible within IFS to create a new assistant from a screen, such as Task Material. We have a case where our technicians may need to reserve stock. I’ve asked the question before, and the response was that you cannot reserve stock from the Task Material screen, however… the question here is… can we create a new assistant that would do it?ThanksJames
Within the APB for a selected Shop Order we can see a list of the potential statuses and of which are applicable to it.However there is no way that we’ve been able to find that provides clear definitions of what each of these statuses actually means. If we use the Help button on this tab, it brings up the window below and if in the Usage section we click on the Show Status URL it provides no meaningful information. We can explain most of these statuses ourselves, but when our client asks specifically about what the INCOMPLETE status means we’re struggling to differentiate that with RELEASED or (especially) PARTIALLY REPORTED Can anyone point us to where we can find an official IFS document that explains exactly each of these Scheduling Status values represents
Hello,I’m wondering if there is a database task that I can schedule to remove External File Load IDs and/or External Voucher Load Information?I’ve looked in the Database Task page for a job that would accomplish this but have not found anything yet. On the External Voucher Load Information screen, you have to confirm for each removal of a load. Attached is a screenshot.Any help is greatly appreciated!Thanks, Kyle
I’m new to IFS and currently exploring the Excel Plugin in V8 and the Excel Add-in in IFS Cloud.I successfully created an Excel migration job for the COUNTING_REPORT view (Count Report Transaction), exported the data, made necessary changes, validated and executed the job using the Excel Add-in. The changes were reflected in IFS as expected.However, when I followed the same process for the COUNTING_REPORT_LINE_EXTENDED view (Count Per Count Report Transaction), the changes did not reflect in IFS after execution.Could you please advise if there are any specific steps or configurations required for the physical inventory process when using the Excel Add-in with this view? Is there a limitation or approval workflow that I should be aware of?Thank you for your support.Best regards,Gowtham
Hello, I have a question about a think thing in the inventory part available planning. When we have adjusted order quantities, we have made changes in the lot size. But what happens in IFS when placing an order if there are also values entered in Min lot size, Max lot size, Multiple lot size, and Std lot size? Do any of these fields have a controlling effect?
have noticed that occasionally the line description from a mixed payment is added to a SUPOA or CUPOA as a note, however this doesn’t seem to always be the case.I can’t work out how it is added to determine why it doesn't happen insome instances, can anyone shed some light on this?
Hello,How to set up auto-incrementation for a field in a custom entity? I didn’t see any option available in the interface.I saw that it’s possible to use a number counter, but I’m not sure how to link it to a field of my entity through the interface. Thank you in advance for your help.
When icons are being specified for individual activities in PSO, this must be done by linking the activity to the id of Activity to an Icon entity id e.g. <Activity> <id>A1</id> <activity_class_id>CALL</activity_class_id> <activity_type_id>Normal</activity_type_id> <location_id>A1</location_id> <do_on_site>false</do_on_site> <duration>PT30M</duration> <customer>None</customer> <icon_id>Appointment</icon_id> </Activity>The Icon entities themselves must either be created in the ARP are specified in the input data. For DEFAULT icons (i.e. inbuilt icons) there is a limited set of paths that can be used. If the customer is specifying the icon data in the load file directly there is currently no documented list of paths:<Icon><id>Sub-contractor</id><icon_type_id>DEFAULT</icon_type_id> <path>people-alt</path></Icon
Hi! We’ve just started experimenting with Document Macros in IFS Cloud and see a great benefit of generating the view file when checking in the original document.But a colleague mentioned that Microsoft will deprecate the vbscript feature going forward, how will this impact document macros in IFS? The question was previously posted in the Foundation sub-forum, but I think it might be better suited here in the Document Management forum. BRGeorge
Some customers will assess fines for a late shipment and will short pay the invoice. What is the best was in IFS to balance out that invoice and correctly record the fine for tracking and GL?
Hello.The issue is with an old Mixed Payment from January 2025. Mixed Payment currency rate was set manually as 0,2465 EUR/PLN, instead of 4,2465(!). In result all transactions were calculated incorrectly and in the next MP a huge exchange profit amount appeared. More MP were created in the following months as somehow such a big amount stayed unnoticed until September… And here we are. In October, 2025 with one MP in August having unmatched transactions with parked payments created and we are unable to reverse all the MP to correct/cancel the one from January. As far as I know there is no standard way to fix it, so any suggestion will be precious for us since somehow we need to deal with this issue and correct the amounts in GL Balance. Thx.K.
