Hello.I’m trying to understand an event action but some informations I need are missing.So basically, we have a custom event which sends an email with an attached PDF file but the PDF file needs a review.This is the custom event that I could find : But how is generared the PDF file? As I’m now discovering IFS cloud, I think we are on 24R2, by clicking on technical documentation on the main menu, the 24R2 version is selected by default.
Dear experts,The customer wanted to receive 1 qty to inventory which is the same as the PO quantity. However, the inventoried quantity is 8 which is greater than the expected by 7. Please see the below.Additionally, Purchase UoM and Inventory UoM are the same, and the inventory conversion factor in the PO line is 1. The receipt cannot be canceled currently.Need to know the reason for this and a perfect solution to remove the excess qty.Cheers,
Hello ExpertsIs it possible to upload an attachment for the external supplier invoices via FTP? the invoices get uploaded via external supplier invoice Assistant (not through ifs connect). In the upload file i can enter the path of the document which needs to be attached. How do I manage it via FTP since i cannot enter an FTP path. This concerns APP10. in CLOUD there is an routing address which can upload an document and create an image file. this image file gets stored and viewable under the external supplier invoice Documents. in App 10 i dont have such a window nor a routing address which uploads document as an image.Best RegardsSophal
Hi Experts,If I return a serial from a serial object(Service Object) and then try to reinstall the same using a request task, the option we had in work order functionality (Place serial in equipment structure) could not find. Is there a different way to perform this?. How can I again make the serial ‘In operation’? Anyone tried this or has any input please?Thank you,Roshan
Based on our findings, there are typically several methods available to update permission sets following an update delivery. However, given the substantial volume involved—802 Security Objects associated with 379 Functional Roles—we believe that providing a set of scripts for the bulk update of permission sets is the most efficient and practical approach.That said, we would appreciate clarification on the following points: What are the limitations of the scripts? How does each prompt behave differently during execution? What are the recommended approaches for the team to test the scripts in a suitable environment ahead of deployment? .Best Regards,Dilka

In IFS Cloud, we have serialized subcomponents set to Manual Issue so that the manufacturing team can issue the components as they are installed on the assembly. The challenge is that sometimes the team under-issues the required quantity, since Manual Issue allows the shop order to progress without fully issuing the required qty.Is there a standard setting or configuration in IFS Cloud that would prevent under-issuing, so that the team must issue the full required quantity before closing (or finishing) the shop order — while still keeping Manual Issue as the issue method?
Hello,We implemented user-based authorization for warehouse access. But it doesn’ t run. The user can perform transport operations.

Hi,I tried to explore entity in IFS Developer Studio. I just made a small sample, added 2 attributes then generated code and deployed. But I met error during deploying. It seems the table was not created and deployed.My attributesThen generated code and deployedI got error and there was no table in DB. Any advice or reference materials on this would be greatly appreciated.
I’ve noticed when I run MS/MRP the lead time for Purchase Requisitions or Distribution Orders is calculated as Manufacturing Lead Time + Inspection Lead Time + External transport lead time + Transport lead time + Internal transport lead time when I have the primary supplier flag turned on, on the SFPP.However if I use Planning Method B or C I’ve noticed the same logic is not applied. Instead the unlimited supply date on the inventory part is used, even if I have a primary supplier defined.For MS/MRP this date is only used if I don’t define a primary supplier.Is there a reason that the logic is different?
Hello,I’m working with contractors who record their hours directly in IFS. They have been set up as contractors, with “Invoices by Supplier” enabled at the employee-category level.My questions are:How can I reconcile the hours they have clocked against the purchase orders to which they are assigned?What is the best practice for recording and posting the supplier invoices for those clocked hours?Any guidance, recommended configuration steps or pointers to relevant IFS documentation would be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for your help!
Hi All,When Time Registration is performed in the Projects module for a Contractor, an additional level of detail is revealed where a mandatory PO and PO Line have to be selected.However, when recording time on a Work Task, the selection of a PO and PO Line is not required and no PO connection is required.My indicator for specifying a Resource as a Contractor for Work Task purposes is when the Site Settings on the Maintenance/Service tab for the Resource has a Supplier ID specified.Was there a good reason why the PO and PO Line is not required when registering time for a Contractor on a Work Task ?
In IFS Developer Studio, I’ve got one module with a few entities and a couple utilities in it. The utilities depend on the entities, but when I try to create a topic environment, it’s not deploying in the correct order. The utility’s package fails because it’s created before the dependent entity’s view.!!!Error deploying database object!!!PACKAGE C_MY_UTILITY_API created with compilation errors at 28-MAY-25 22:07:16PLS-00201: identifier 'C_MY_OTHER_ENTITY' must be declared error at line no :12PL/SQL: Compilation unit analysis terminated error at line no :0I’ve been trying to play with the deploy.ini file to force the order the files are deployed, but this isn’t working.

Hi, We are setting up our base prices at site CRWUS. The customer agreement is valid for site 17713 On the request work task sales tab price source 58 is recognized but the agreed to price is not coming through. Is this a fault with IFS? Or does the functionality not exist when the base sales price site differs from the sales site, even though the agreement is valid for the sales site? What are we missing? Guidance would be appreciated

Hi everybody, Does anyone has experience with the Accounting Journals definition to meet the Italian Law requirements (Libro Giornale)?Customer needs to have all the GL transactions, sort by registration date, but here in IFS I see I need to choose the vouchers that I want to be included.Should I select all of them or some need to be excluded? I do not have so much experience with the Italian Law and I expected to fine this report in the ones particular for Italian Localization but as I could not find it, I suppose I have to define it.
FSM's customer recently upgraded from 6U25 to 6U27. The environment is hosted on-premise.After the upgrade, the customer attempted to activate a mobile user. Upon entering the mobile user credentials, the process directed to the sync screen as usual. However, the activation process did not conclude and became stuck on the sync screen.During the investigation, we observed that the "person_mobile" record is created for the individual being activated.However, we found that the mobile database is not successfully being created on the FSM server for the user in question.Could you please share insights into possible causes for this issue? The database has not been properly created in the mobiledb folder

Hei All,We are deploying IFS-INGRESS using main.ps1. The installation completes successfully without any errors. However, the pods fail to start and show a "Failed to pull image" error. Upon further investigation, we found that the specified image pull secret is missing in the IFS-INGRESS namespace, and we are not sure why it was not created.Has anyone encountered a similar issue? We added the missing secret manually, which resolved the problem, but we’d like to understand the exact root cause.
Hi ,A company is required to present a balance sheet broken down by business activity types (PL energy law). These types are encoded in the CC (code part - cost center) .So - all the accounts should be split by CC .And the liabilities split looks like the most difficult issue.The distribution of a purchase invoice liability (they have a lot of invoices with several business activity types in a single document) is only known after PO matching /final posting.But in I type voucher - there is only one liability (IP1) row . Distribution/division of IP1 amount is possible – on an additional, statistical account – and each invoice (and subsequently it’s payment) can have a different proportion of amounts per CC code part. How to help customer with registration/reporting ?Has anyone handled/solved /customized this problem?I would be grateful for any feedback.BR Ela
Hi All, One of our group businesses has been grappling with APB for a few years, unable to produce a realistic, reliable schedule, at least not without significant manual rework. The ability of APB to function in our environment has been called into question, i.e. can it ever be made to work? And I have been tasked with finding a customer, in a similar industry / use case, willing to talk to us, to try and answer that question. A brief outline of our business:-A provider of engineering services; predominantly offering a make-to-print service for high-complexity, low-volume part production requiring CNC machining and grinding processes to produce. This results in a Job Shop environment configured to deal with a high-variety of products mainly seeing strangers, with few repeaters or runners. Stats:- 7.5 operations per routing (mean), 995 open shop orders, 517 unique parts across those orders, and a median lot size of 2 off. The business has recently moved to IFS Cloud after running A
Hei All, We noticed that when creating a Customer Invoice in IFS, all documents attached to the corresponding Customer Order are automatically copied to the invoice. Is there a way to restrict this behavior, for example by Document Class or through another configuration?Regards,Sri
