Hello,I’ve created a Migration job for importing new service resources in Cloud. By baseline, while creating a New Service Resource, it automatically creates a Maintenance Employee record and assigns it to the Service Resource created.But while creating a Migration job, the Maintenance Employee record is not created. Also the Resource Connection with the Company and Site are not setup properly.Below is the Method List used to create Service Resources and Connections. What could be the possible reasons? Any inputs would be appreciated.Kind RegardsPriyanka Cecilia
I'd like to know how to register new customer order headers and line items in the same migration job.I have tried this and confirmed that adding CUSTOMER_ORDER and CUSTOMER_ORDER_LINE to the "Method List" tab allows me to update them all at once. However, when I try to insert both the header and line items, I get the error "DEVELOPER_ERROR_03: Most likely a usage definition is wrongly defined for LU: [CustomerOrder] in table RM_ACC_USAGE_TAB, internal exception: [Ex_Get_Id]."

Hello there!I have been struggling with this problem in the past few days. While creating a quick search group (table ps_quick_search), I am able to create it but this message keeps showing up in the Web Client.Through investigation, I believe it is because only 3 of 6 required fields are sent to the data base but as this is OOTB thing, I don’t know how to change it. The problem is this only happens for a certain role because if I perform this action with others, the message doesn’t show up.I have also performed the test with two versions of the same screen (same role for both) and for one of them the message doesn’t show up, so I don’t believe it is a role problem.Has this happened to anyone?
I want to know how to get the Sales Price List by API. When registering a Customer Orders in the migration job, I want to use the API to retrieve the sales price from the sales price list. Because the migration job does not appear to be referencing the sales price list.
Hi,I have created a custom field in IFSAPP10 but it is not displayed in IFS Report Designer.Enabled On Reports tick box is ticked as well. Can anyone help me to get the custom field to the IFS Report Designer.
Hi!We want to show which user has executed the transport task in entity TransportTask. I know I could enable history log for the LU, but this is not searchable.My thesis is to add a persistent custom field on the entity that can be filled with Fnd_Session_API.Get_Fnd_User() through a custom event, and fire when user is executing the transport task (when object PRINTED_FLAG is changed from 0 to 1). However, I keep getting error messages when pressing Execute, especially ORA-01008: not all variables bound.Is my thesis even doable? If so, can anyone help me? If not, does anyone know what else I could to to achieve this?Best regards, Henning
Hi everyone,I’m looking for feedback from IFS Cloud users on how you manage employee claims for cents per kilometer. Are you primarily using the Expense module for this, or have you configured an approach within the Timecard that integrates seamlessly with payroll alongside other timecard transactions? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Emilly BarkerProject Quantum Test Lead - HCMQuanta Services Australia
Part Serial can be connected to a Rental Fixed AssetYou can make a Part Serial ‘Maintenance Aware’ and by doing so create a Serial ObjectThis Serial Object can be connected to a Fixed Asset Now our general approach is to make Maintenance Aware in the same company that owns the Fixed Asset. How can I correct it if a user has manually made a Part Serial Maintenance Aware in a wrong company? E.g.Fixed Asset owned in France Part Serial linked to this Fixed Asset Part Serial Make Maintenance Aware > you can choose in which company For this particaul car it is wrongly 1001 while it should have been 1011 Denys France SAS, then the Serial Object should be connected to the Fixed Asset A791100003 in 1011
Hello everyone! I would like to know if there is a way to integrate Microsoft Forms with IFS.I will explain what I would like to do: I created a form by Microsoft Forms that contains questions about Business Lead (We use this form in events to show our products to get new customers).What do I do today? I get all answers of this form and fill the “Business Lead” screen on IFS manually, one by one.I would like to automate this. After answer all questions of the form on Microsoft Forms and click on “Send”, all these answers fill the “Business Lead” screen on IFS automatically. Is this possible? Thanks!
We are looking to implement a solid core to rebuild process in our company. These would be core units from the field that need to brought into inventory at zero dollars, shipped out to a supplier to be rebuilt, and then brought back in the system with the new cost of rebuilding the unit. We want the option of NOT serializing these parts, but we want to try and keep the process as standard as possible. Is there a standard way that IFS provides for this process that will work for serialized and non-serialized parts?
Hello, In IFS standard settings, is it possible to prevent or block the goods receipt process if there is an outstanding or unapplied Purchase Order Change Order for the corresponding Purchase Order? Thanks for your help.
I have created a Logic Apps Custom Connector (imported the OpenAPI v3 definition into Postman and used the Postman collection for the connector) with the following security settings:The connection is created successfully and the Logic App using the new connector works perfectly. However, running the same Logic App again after 2 hours I get a 401 error “scope=\"openid microprofile-jwt\" error=\"invalid_token\" error_description=\"jwt signature verification failed: 'exp' claim expired at Wed, 09 Apr 2025 07:19:43 GMT\”Reviewing the Connection I see“On the connection I get "Failed to refresh access token for service: oauth2. Correlation Id=5b637509-4626-4d68-a5ad-0a1fdb3da129, UTC TimeStamp=4/9/2025 9:20:08 AM, Error: OAuth 2 access token refresh failed. Client ID and secret sent in form body.. Response status code=BadRequest. Response body: {"error":"invalid_grant","error_description":"Token is not active"}"” I’m not a security expert, hence every suggestion is much appreciated.
What is the use of ‘Event Based’ Revenue recognition and how it works.We defined events on the project, but when we do revenue recognition, it is being calculated as if no events have been defined. Can someone please help how it works.
We have recently had several cases where credit notes (CNs) were not deducted from outstanding invoices during payment runs, which results in double or excess payments.This is usually because a CN often has a later date than the original invoice, on which the payment term is then applied.It happens that the invoice is due (because eg longtime blocked/not approved) and the CN not yet. In the context of the IFS implementation, we had checked to look into setting CNs as immediately due, so that when approved, the CN would be immediately deducted from the invoices in the payment run.At that time, this seemed not to be possible. Given the recent cases, we was wondering if it would be possible if we had a separate numbering sequence and, for example, a separate voucher type for CNs, to make sure that credit notes become immediately due. Other suggestions are also welcome!Thanks!
BACKGROUND: We currently have a feature we developed using a homegrown integration application with IFS to achieve online bill pay functionality on our external website. It is fairly straight forward and has 2 endpoints. 1 endpoint to retrieve a list of invoices a customer needs to pay and 1 endpoint to pay those invoices. We are utilizing IFS’s oracle APIs currently so when a customer pays the invoice, this single endpoint call is actually:Generating a statement number Creating a mixed payment lump sum record Creating the mixed payment ledger transaction record We then attempt to charge the customer’s credit card, and upon success of that.. we then approve the mixed payment.Since this is all captured within a transaction, if any stage of these steps fail, we can safely rollback the changes we made in IFS and we can cancel the credit card transaction if we need to.GOAL: Our goal would be to shift this functionality over to using IFS’s REST APIs. We have never used IFS REST APIs to thi
In the customer card, under the Address tab, I have added a new Custom Field – Account Manager.I would like to use a migration job targeting the view CUST_ORD_CUSTOMER_ADDRESS to insert/update this field.I created the following migration job based on my experience with IFS 9.
Starting on July 13, 2024, our data loads started having issues. We did not have any patching or updates or changes that I can find. Prior to this they were running successfully since deployment for over 6 months. The data load itself has a status of executing with errors. Each data source shows as Executing, Failed, Success or Submitted. Most were showing as Submitted. The BI server errors looked like they were deadlocking them selves. I put sequential IDs and sequences on all of the data sources and now most show as Success. If I run a data source by itself, then there are no issues. Any help or ideas would be great. Here is the IFS screen examples: Here is the SSIS log for the DIM_Account:Fetch Data Load Run Data Source Info:Error: Executing the query "EXEC [TABULAR_CREATE_AND_FETCH_DATA_SOURCE_RUN_INF..." failed with the following error: "Transaction (Process ID 65) was deadlocked on lock | communication buffer resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadloc
Hi,I’ve been trying out a document macro to create a PDF when checking in a word-document.Below processCreate a new document revision for the document class associated with the macro Click “Check In Document” and select a word-document Click “Edit Document”, save and close it Click “Check In Document”Above process successfully creates a PDF-file and checks it in together with the edited word-document.My question is, is it possible to skip step 3 and 4? That is, have the PDF-file created and checked in at at the first time I click “Check In Document”?Currently I’ve been able to have the macro create a PDF file at step 2, but IFS doesn’t check it in. The PDF-file is created in the CHECK_IN_PATH folder with the same file name as the word-document.I understand that sFileName and sPath below is null when doing step 2 above but contains LOCAL_FILE_NAME and LOCAL_PATH when I’ve first checked out the document as per step 3.'Macro Block: WORD_INIT_AND_COMMON' General declarations for MS Word ma
I am trying to learn how this functionality can add value in the intersite flow. Can anyone advise?
Is there a way to calculate rebates based on a progressive calculation. The rebate agreement is as follow.If a customer purchases up to 1,000 kg, they get 2% rebate. From 1,001 to 5,000 kg, they get 5% rebate on that portion. Above 5,000 kg, they get 10% rebate on the excess weight.If a customer purchases 6,500 kg, first 1000kg will be based on 2%, second 4000 will be based on 5% and remaining 1500kg will be based on 10%.How to setup this in IFS rebate agreement.

Hello,Could you please help me with the following two questions? In the Mixed Receipts/Payments screen, if I need to change the bank account that received the payment, from which screen or menu should I make that change? (If there is a standard IFS navigation path or specific function name, please provide it.) After a Supplier Invoice has been registered, is it possible to delete it from a list or summary screen (for example, the Supplier Invoice list)? If deletion is possible, please describe the exact steps to do so, including any required permissions, approval steps, or restrictions (for example, whether a posted/approved invoice can be deleted or only reversed/cancelled). A personal note: I just joined the company and I am still learning the system, so I would greatly appreciate detailed, step-by-step instructions where possible.Thank you very much for your help.Best regards,Mina
