Issue Summary:The mass update assistant for the "Generate Schedule" function in Recurring Service Programs seems to be absent in version 25R2 and earlier. We miss the functionality to be able to automate this process using a scheduled task. Notably, the "Generate Request" function is available as an assistant in 25R2, and its underlying procedure can be leveraged for scheduled task execution.Impact:This functionality is critical for efficiently managing large volumes of Recurring Service Programs. In its absence, users are required to manually trigger "Generate Schedule" for each program—particularly when extending the PM_HORIZON or updating calendars—which leads to considerable inefficiency. Question:Is the "Generate Schedule" mass update assistant planned for inclusion in future releases?

Why is it not possible to quickly sort the Register Arrivals screen in IFS Cloud by Promised Receipt Date, i.e. oldest first? Is there a way for functional users to do this easily, and if not, what could possibly be the reason for this? In other screens it is easy to sort by date, but seems to have been removed from Register Arrivals? 

In the 24R2 documentation:The Update Processed Transactions section in the ‘About MCA’ page reads:“All inventory parts, no matter of inventory valuation method, will have their labor and operation transactions costs adjusted from this command.”The Update Processed Transactions activity in 5.5.9.1 Manufacturing Cost Allocation reads:“The transactions of only inventory parts that are having Weighted Average setting in the inventory valuation method of the Inventory Part page will be updated from this update processed transactions command.”EDIT: I figured out what the documentation was stating.

Can anyone have a report that shows conflicts between functional areas for SOD? We are using database object methods to define our functional areas.Is there a way to create a quick report that shows the functional conflicts for a Permission set? I think we need to lookup if the database object method matches the objects in our functional areas.I appriciate your help.

How are users handling tariffs in IFS, both from an internal cost and external pricing standpoint?  For pricing, can prices be adjusted by Country of Origin?  (If so, how do we get the Country of Origin field to populate in Sales Part screen?For cost, is “landed cost” the best way to track it?Thanks all.  

Hello,(We are on 23R1.6 in our environments.) We have a quick report that pulls invoice data, we can export this data from the quick report page, completely fine. We encounter no issues and the excel formatting is perfect. The issue we are encountering though, is when scheduling this report via scheduled reports, and having it emailed to our users, we notice that the method used to export the data onto an excel sheet adds an extra space and a new line character before the field values for all columns/rows. We cannot fix this on our end since these characters are added after the data is pulled from the quick report. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Thanks,Bryan

For planners and buyer/procurement teams. The inventory part availbitly planning overview, shows the status “Arrived” for materials that have been returned to the supplier.I think it should have a Status “RETWORK” like in Transcation History In this example, parts have been returned to the supplier using the following process steps. Generated a Return, by entering a “Qty to inspect” in the Receipt IFS opens the orginal Purchase Order Register Inspection Results Print a Return Note.Transaction History show the items as, RETWORKHowever for planners and buyer/procurement teams it is not clear that the parts have been returned to the supplier, even if they then check Purchase Order Lines History, is has status arrived which can then cause warehouse teams to look for the materials.  I think that this will help many IFS users worldwide.

Hello everyone,We’ve recently upgraded to IFS Cloud 25R1 and noticed that the API ReceiveCamtFileService used previously for importing bank statements is no longer available.Could someone please advise what is the new recommended approach for importing CAMT.053 (or similar) bank statement files in 25R1?Specifically: Which external file type or template should we use now (e.g. ExtMixedPayment, BankStatement, etc.)? Is there an out-of-the-box replacement for ReceiveCamtFileService, or do we need to set up a custom External File Template for CAMT files? Any documentation or example configuration (template name, file structure) for the new process would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!Best regards,

Hi!I’m trying to understand the shipment process in IFS8. On the customer order, I added a package material called QW-CW-02-PKG. I reserved one of the components inside this package and then created a shipment. In the Shipment screen, I added the related customer order line to Connected Shipment Lines.What I can’t figure out is how to place the material into a specific package or pallet. In the Package Structure tab, I created a Handling Unit and a Package under it. How do I add the connected material into this package?  

I cannot really find a clear simple answer as to the difference between By-Product and Disassembly Components and when to use each one.  It would be helpful if there was a matrix with checkboxes on each describing what they can do. In general vocabulary terms, By-Product is usually an unitnentional secondary product where disassembly would be parts… but in IFS terms, what is the difference?  Are there limitations of one vs the other?  Labor / part cost differences?  Other?  

Hi All,Could you please confirm when the PO is with the 'Pending Changes' tag, is it allowed to proceed with the Register Arrival and do the receipt?I created a PO which is in Confirmed status and then created a Change Order, and now it is in Released status. With that open Change Order, the system allows proceeding with the PO via Register Arrival and performing the receipt.I think if there is any open Change Order available for a particular PO, then the system shouldn't allow proceeding with that PO with those pending changes. Is this the correct behavior?Or is there any basic data setup that we can use to prevent proceeding with the PO which has open Change Orders?

Hi All, I have setup a non-inventory purchase part and created a PO for it.  I have included PO charges as well. When I receive the PO, I am unable to find the charge amount in INVETORY TRANSACTIONS HISTORY or Purchase Transaction History . Is this a system limitation or Posting control related Issue? ThanksKind regardsChanaka

Hello,In production processes, after 5-6 operations, the finished product is produced. Depending on the company's requirements, each operation is managed as a new repair work order in IFS setups. The manufacturing material number does not change. In these production runs, the materials to be produced are tracked manually based on the assigned lot. This lot number remains the same throughout product production. In most cases, after a shop order has been partially received based on the lot size (the shop order has not been closed), production is attempted with the same lot number on a new shop order. In this case, while reserving a lot in IFS, a history record associated with the lot exists in another shop order, or when receiving it for production, but you cannot perform any operations, I receive errors. How can I provide a solution? Best Regards,

Hello, For a shop order with an outside operation, when it is released, a PR/PO is created! For a reason, the purchasing team delayed the receipt date on PO or the supplier confirmed a different delivery date. I have done some tests and the modification on PO have no impact on shop order scheduling. It does not modify Start/finish date of the following operations. Do you have an idea about please? and is there a solution? thanks

Normally the videos should stay available for 1 month isn’t it? As you can see below, there doesn’t seem to be the option to re-launch any of the videos.   Does anyone know what’s wrong? Any help is welcome.

What could be the issue. Original PO is connected to the same project as is in the PR that we using to o do POCO.
