Hi,We have a problem in IFS Cloud (recreated in both 24R1 and 24R2) when it comes to automatically creation of normal time by the background job “Generate Timrep Intervals and Hours” in combination with increments (or overtime or other time reportings) already reported before the day is handled by the background job. It works as expected/requested for employees with time base “Generated results” but not for employees with time base “Generated clockings”. This creates an issue when an employee has for example planned stand-by-time (increment) that is registered for a future day (a day that has not been handled by the background job yet). When the day is handled by the background job, it does not create normal time if there’s already any time reports on that day (if employee has time type “Generated clockings”). In IFS 10, the normal time is being automatically created in the same case (i.e employee has time base “generated clockings” and increment/other time is registered beforehand).
Hi!We’d like to be able to access data from the Projections REST API with maintained end user authorization from a third-party web application with it’s own backend REST API, preferably with AzureAD as our primary SSO IDP. We have configured an IAM Identity provider in IFS cloud.The problem is that tokens issued by the AzureAD is not accepted by IFS Cloud/Keycloak, and we can’t find a way to do “token-exchange” or get a token for the user “on-behalf-of” via a confidential IAM Client. Those features seems to be disabled in keycloak.(We can authenticate directly towards IFS Cloud/keycloak and get a token for accessing the projections but in our use-case, this would require two logins, one to Azure, and one to IFS Cloud)Is there any way we can use AzureAD as our primary IDP, and use that access token to query projections with maintained end-user permissions?

Hi Community,Is there a way to identify or track the exact date when a Shipment was set to COMPLETED?We’re aware that this information can be found refering to the Background Jobs Complete Shipment task if the action was performed recently.However, since background job records are retained only for a limited period, we’re looking for an alternative method to retrieve the completion date for shipments completed beyond the background job history timeframe.Thanks in advance for your help!
Hello Community,I’m hoping someone has encountered this and found a solution, as it’s creating a major issue for our field teams.We are running IFS Applications 10 with Single Sign-On (SSO) fully configured for both the core system and the MWO Service Application (latest version).The Problem: Following a recent update to the MWO App and the devices to iOS 18, our engineers are now being prompted to re-login multiple times a day. Previously, sessions were stable and persistent, with SSO working flawlessly.Crucial Context: Our server-side configuration, including the touchapps component and SSO settings, has not been modified. The frustrating re-login behavior only started after the client-side (MWO App and iOS) updates. It appears the new MWO App version or iOS 18 is interfering with the persistent session or token refresh/expiry, forcing a complete re-authentication where none was required before.Has anyone else using IFS 10 with the latest MWO App on iOS 18 and SSO experienced this
Hello everyone,I’m facing an issue when trying to connect an export license to a part on a Customer Order in IFS Cloud.I have created an export license with the following validity dates: Effective From: 06-Oct-2025 Expires: 11-Jul-2026 The license status is Approved, and all basic data is in place: Classification, Scheme, Codes, Authorizations Part basic data with End Usage End Usage setup matches the license configuration However, when I attempt to connect the license to the part, I receive the following error:“Cannot Connect License, Check Effective From Date and Expire Date in Export License.”The dates on the license are valid, so I’m unsure why this error occurs.Has anyone experienced this before or can provide guidance on what else might need to be checked? Thank you in advance!

Hi,We have setup inter site customer order and purchase order setup between 2 companies and performing below transactions.Company A deliver goods to Company B and perform create invoice and send invoice function. Then External supplier invoice is created in Company B, and they receive the purchase order using ‘Register Arrival’ Company B perform ‘Match Invoices with PO receipt’ task and it will match the external supplier invoice with PO However, Invoice is in ‘PrelPosted’ and user needs to do ‘Post Invoice’ function in MSI to post the invoice. Note - We disable the ‘Create Posting at Invoice Entry’ toggle. If we enable this toggle, it’s getting posted without an issue. However, customer doesn’t need to enable this toggle as they want to perform ‘Post Invoice’ function for invoices receiving from external suppliers.we have enabled the ‘Automatic Posting Irrespective of the company settings’ External Supplier Invoice Parameters. I think it should get post the invoice based on ‘External

Hello,I was trying to find if it’s possible to configure K8s ephemeral storage value for a deployment of an service in the ifscloud-values.yaml file.Specifcally I need to change ephemeral-storage value to ~16G for ifsapp-reporting-ren deployment in our IFS Cloud instance. Some pods has been crashing due to Eviction caused by exceeding the limit of ephemeral storage.Changing it via: kubectl edit deploy ifsapp-reporting-ren -n "NAMESPACE"after every delivery deployment could be frustrating and our team can easily forget about this step.Offical documentation only mentions replicas paramter:I couldn’t find values for k8s deployment requests and limits...Maybe there is some way to configure it to be constant, so that delivery installation will not erase it ?
Hi,We are working on upgrading our IFS 10 UPD 22 version to IFS Cloud 25 R1.Upgrade. This will be On-Prem to On-Prem UpgradeWe would like to know whether the database upgrade can be performed in a customer-hosted (On-Prem) interim environment rather than doing it in an environment hosted by IFS. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could provide some insight into this matter.

Dear IFS Experts, We are currently upgrading two IFS customers: one from IFS 9 to IFS Cloud and the other from IFS 10 to IFS Cloud. Both customers are already hosted in the IFS Managed Cloud, and they will continue to be hosted there after upgrading to IFS Cloud. This means we cannot upgrade directly on the IFS use place production environment in the Managed Cloud. Instead, we have to use an interim database outside of the Managed Cloud to run the upgrade scripts. This approach requires us to: Export (Data Pump) the current database (based on IFS 9 or IFS 10). Upload the dump file to Azure Storage. Download the dump file from Azure Storage to the interim environment to prepare for the upgrade. Import the dump file to the interim database. Perform the upgrade. Complete all validations. Create an Oracle PDB Archive file as per the IFS Managed Cloud procedure. Upload the PDB Archive file to Azure Storage. Download the PDB Archive file from Azure Storage to the IFS live production environm
We’re working in IFS Cloud 24R2 and trying to add a new top-level folder in Navigator Designer. Logged in as IFSAPP, we can add entries and sub-nodes under existing folders, but we don’t see any option to add a new root-level folder directly.Is there a supported way to add a top-level folder in the navigator structure? Are there specific steps, permissions, or contexts required to make this option available?Additionally, we’re looking to apply similar navigation changes for B2B users. However, when accessing the B2B portal—even as IFSADMIN—we don’t see the Navigator Designer option at all. Is there a way to configure or assign custom navigation for B2B users?Any guidance or confirmation from others working with 24R2 and B2B portal setup would be greatly appreciated.
Hello, I'm Markus and I'm new here in this community, and this is my first post.One of my tasks is to prepare the master data from the old ERP and migrate it to the IFS cloud. Of course, a lot of mapping is necessary, as we don't have this many columns and tables in the old ERP.I learned from our consulting to use these data migration tools: Migration Job for LOAD and for MIGI have a VPN to the IFS cloud and can select the data VIEWS via ORACLE SQL Developer to reconcile the column names and fields for the migration job files or to build the mapping for this.Is there a best practice for the migration of master datafrom our old ERP to our IFS cloud?Thank you very much for your knowledgeGreetingsMarkus
We're trying to customize the B2B portal navigation in our IFS Cloud environment, but we've hit a roadblock. When logged in as IFSADMIN through the B2B interface, we don't see the Navigator Designer option at all. It's also missing from the main Navigator Designer page when trying to edit navigation for B2B users.Has anyone successfully configured B2B navigation or found a workaround for this limitation? Is Navigator Designer intentionally restricted for B2B contexts, or are we missing a setup step?Any insights or guidance would be appreciated!
Where can I find 25R1 documentation ?
