Any suggestions for implementing the functionality in IFS Cloud to have the capability to pre-validate, export, and import technical documentation, Logistic Dataset (LDS), Logistics Support Analysis Records (LSAR), and asset provisioning lists (Naval, Aeronautical, and Marine assets), in accordance with the data exchange standards established by the S1000D (all versions above 2.0), S2000M (versions above 3.0), S3000L (versions above 1.0), and S4000P (versions above 1.0) specifications produced by the AeroSpace and Defence Industries Association of Europe (ASD).
Objective: Access Template that gives view access to all usersThe solution to this used to be to create an Access Template with the Person ID = *This worked so long as * was not the person ID for the appowner, IFSAPP. (Easy solution: make a new person ID = IFSAPP and associate it with the user IFSAPP.)However, when a customer using Cloud 24R2 SU8 tried to do this, there was an error message that * is not allowed as a Person ID; no mention about appowner, just that * is not allowed at all.If that’s the case, what is the solution for this common business requirement.Thanks
When creating a PR, the delivery address should be automatically filled from the supplier and adjustable by the user. The selected address should then be transferred automatically from PR to PO.Currently, the address can only be written in the Note field, which is not sufficient and causes missing information in the process.Thank youDenisa
Parent - MP A (Manufactured), Component - PP A (Purchased)Both Parts are Lot TrackingInventory Valuation Method - Weighted AverageInventory Part Cost Level - Cost Per Lot BatchSteps Create a product structure for MP A with a quantity per assembly (QPA) of 1 pc of PP A. Receive inventory for PP A into cost bucket 110 at $2 per unit, quantity 10. (After issuing to the Shop Order, on-hand will become zero.) Create a Shop Order for MP A with a lot size of 10. Disable auto-close for this Shop Order. Perform Manual Material Issue for PP A to the Shop Order. Create the Lot/Batch. Receive the Shop Order and review the Shop Order Cost. Repeat the Scenario Using Backflush Recreate the same setup. Instead of manually issuing materials, enable Backflush for PP A. Receive the Shop Order and review the Shop Order Cost. Estimated Accumulated Cost changed to Zero.Is there a specific reason for this behavior?
Default Planned Cost driver and Progress method are both set to Connected objects.This settings are rarely in use for estimates and progress in our company…. and our users often forget to change them… this creates a problem when you set your baseline, since it does not fetch our estimates, but try to find amounts from Connected objects.So,-how to change default Planned cost driver and Progress method?That would help our endusers a lot!

IFS Cloud Webdev Tools are no longer working correctly after the update on 28th October 2025. The links above the blue buttons (import/export logs) no longer appear so you cannot click on network. 24R1 SU12 customer here, anyone else experienced this or found a solution?

Hi,I need to create a lobby to monitor Resource Utilization. The data is visible in the Resource Shift Gantt, as shown in the screenshot, but I can’t find this information in any table or view except the Dispatch Console.I tried calculating it manually, but I’d prefer to use the existing data directly (Percentage allocated).Is there a way to access this information “as is” and display it in a lobby?Any advice or best practices would be greatly appreciated.Thanks
Does anyone know how a Link in a lobby element must look like to navigate to the page ‘Engineering Part Navigator’?Copying the standard-URL does not work when Aurena is configured with language ‘german’.When changed to english and then copying the Browser-URL to the Lobby-Element the Jump from the Element loads but does not show any data.Relativ path (whithout the server part in the URL) has the same behaviour. this does not work:https://>server>:46080/main/ifsapplications/web/page/EngineeringPartNavigator/Form;$filter=PartNo%20eq%20'100000'%20and%20PartRev%20eq%20'R01';searchcontext=;record=KFBhcnRObz0nMTAwMDAwJyxQYXJ0UmV2PSdSMDEnKQ%3D%3D;treeviewrec=KFBhcnRObz0nMTAwMDAwJyxQYXJ0UmV2PSdSMDEnKQ%3D%3D;treeview=EngPartStructureTree;treeclient=EngineeringPartNavigator;treenodeid=UEFSVE5PPTEwMDAwMFBBUlRSRVY9UjAx;path=0.316016970.807759036.8961333.138990472.eyJhIjoidmlydHVhbC04OCIsImIiOiIxMzg5OTA0NzIiLCJpIjoiRm9ybSIsImYiOiIvUGFnZSIsImciOiJFbmdpbmVlcmluZ1BhcnROYXZpZ2F0b3IiLCJlIjoiTmF2aW
Hi!We have a large number of open-ended Service Contracts, each containing one or more Service Lines with a fixed price. The invoicing setup is Invoice Rule = “Post”, and each Service Line uses a Global Non-Inventory Part to represent the fixed price per visit.Each Service Contract currently has its own unique fixed price value.We would like to apply an annual price increase (for example, a percentage uplift each year) across all Service Contract lines at once, without having to manually open and update each Service Contract and Service Line individually.Is there a standard functionality or recommended approach in IFS Cloud that allows: Applying a mass price increase to Service Contract line prices (based on percentage uplift), and Updating the fixed price on the Service Lines accordingly, Without changing the part number structure or manually modifying each contract?
Project Time Transactions are creating a T Voucher in the General Ledger. The Voucher Row for PRJT2 is being summarised and shows as a single line with the description “Summarised customers costs”. Is there a way to show the detail. Same is happening for PRJT13.We are time reporting for Contractors and would like to see the details for each contractor so we can use Account Matching to match the Supplier Invoice Postings with the Time Transactions. Otherwise we have yet to find what report we can use to identify the balance left in the Account by the PRJT13 postings (similar to a Received Not Yet Invoiced Report).Thanks for any help.Graham
We have errors in 25R1.3 that has been solved in 25R1.4Is this service update available for customer ?
I need to create an overview page that displays details of all parts and their related boxes. The page should be read-only. However, since custom pages do not support only read-only fields by default, I’m exploring alternative options. I already have the query that retrieves the required data.Is there a way to create this overview page using the query results through configuration, without doing any customization?
Hi Everyone, A few questions for you... Has anyone got any examples of how customers have created structured reports for the cash planning details? Has anyone done any work with a customer on long term cash planning, and any advice on how to best use cash planning without too many manual cash flows given there might not be sufficient PO/CO detail to cover long term supply/demand? Has anyone used business plans or budgets to feed into cash planning, if so, how?Many thanks Udanee

Hi All, We are getting an error saying “Object ID is invalid” when we try to enter an measurement to object. What can be the reason behind this? TIA.
Is it possible to do a search like this in Cloud to limit approvals to those the current user can approve? where (PERSON_ID = '#PERSON_ID#' OR &AO.Document_Group_Members_API.User_Member_Of_Group(GROUP_ID, '#PERSON_ID#') = 'TRUE') We have approvals attached to areas other than Document Management and I would like to make a lobby element for users that will show them those other approvals.
I am using Cloud 22-R2: I want the Proposed Location on a shop order to automatically pull from the Inventory Part’s Default Location rather than the standard default outbound location defined for the Work Center.i.e. multiple products are produced on a particular work center - 99% of which are required to output to the standard post production, pre-shipping location which is defined as the default outbound location on the work center. However, there is one product produced on the same work center that I want to output to a different location - a location that has an availability control assigned to it. i.e. I want to assign a particular Availability Control to a certain part every time it is receipted from a shop order - I thought I would use a unique location for this purpose. I want to use standard functionality ideally, without the need for a CRIM.I know I can manually change the Proposed Location on the shop order or I can manually change the output location when receiving/appr
Hi Team,I have a request from customer to have a workflow to manage supplier invoice arrival. We already introduced Supplier invoice workflow using Posting proposal. However, there business scenario is like belowIndustry - Construction & EngineeringScenario AP team receive the supplier invoices directly from the Supplier and they need to assign this to Project Managers or Procurement team to get the source reference Eg: PO RefIs there an alternative solution to handle this requirement.I explained that AP team needs to get the invoices from the person who originate the transactions. However, looking for a solution to handle the exception where, AP team get invoice directly and they need to route it to different person via IFS Application.BR/Narmada
Hi,Our customer has an issue with OCI punchout with a supplier. Once the shopping is checked out no parts/lines are transferred from the punchout to IFS shopping cart. I investigated and found out that the JSON message we are receiving(for method Self_Serv_Shop_Cart_Util_API.Receive_Punchout_Response()) is missing parameters UserId, Supplier and most importantly BuyerCookie. The customer confirmed that they are sending these parameters in the POST request as below. Also I have asked them to change the format as UserId[0], BuyerCookie[0], Supplier[0] just to test it out, but still we get the same issue.It seems the format of the POST request for the 3 parameters is wrong so its not mapping them to the Json message. I could not find any documentation other than what is available here Punchout Catalog - Procurement (ESSPRO) - Technical Documentation For IFS Cloud.Is the parsing of the POST request from the customers portal to Json message happening at IFS? if so how can we check this, ju
When working with a detached spare part list that has a multilevel hierarchy, we observed the following behavior: The Level 1 part in the detached spare part list has two connected child parts (Level 2). When retrieving the detached spare part list from the Maintenance Material Requisition (MMR), it is not possible to directly navigate or view the Level 2 parts from the hierarchy. To access Level 2 parts, we need to manually add the corresponding Level 1 part in the MMR, then re-query and add spare parts from the detached spare part list. Only then do the Level 2 parts appear. This process results in multiple iterations when dealing with hierarchical spare part structures. Additionally, once the Level 2 parts are retrieved, the previous level label does not provide contextual information about the parent part. We’re trying to understand whether this is: A system limitation by design in handling multilevel hierarchies within detached spare part lists; or A potential enhancement
Hi All,Even though the permission set FND_DESIGNER_REPORT has been granted, the Report Studio design interface is not showing up.Could you please advise on possible causes?
Dear All,i’m facing an problem in issuing the part to location from maintenance material requisition even though having the onhand qty available. Moreover the Qty of the part is under standard inventory. So, kindly suggest if there is any cause for this.
We have requirement of POCO approval only for delta amount. we are not able Approve the POCO when the delta amount is negative.
