Does anyone have documentation in regards to the IFS Freight Interface for Cloud 21 R1/R2?  Does it still exist?  Is it still ODBC connections or can we use the Web Apps using REST Api calls?

Hi all, Do we know why the formula is different for both types of parts (Sales Part and Supplier for Purchase Part) for calculating the Price Quantity? I understand that the following formulas are below: Sales Part formula: Price Quantity = Sales Quantity x Price Conv Factor SFPP formula: Purchase Quantity = Price Quantity x Price Conv Factor So for the sales part, to get the price quantity we multiply, but for the SFPP if we want to calculate the price quantity we have to do the Purchased Quantity divided by the Price Conversion Factor.  Our customer would like to understand the reasonings behind this, any help would be much appreciated :) 

Hi, i have created a new service contract and try to crete one time invoice, but I get this error message. Is there som basic data I have to define? 

Hi everyone,We’re relatively new to IFS at our company and are currently working on improving how we track and report equipment downtime.Recently, we’ve taken some objects out of operation and then brought them back online. However, we’re missing a clear report or overview that shows the actual downtime duration for each equipment. From what we’ve seen so far, there doesn’t appear to be a standard solution in IFS for this.Has anyone implemented a reliable method for tracking equipment downtime in IFS?Any advice, best practices, or pointers to existing functionality would be greatly appreciated!

I have seen the idea with title “Posting Proposal page search/filtering doesn't exist like other Aurena pages” , The explanation to this limitation is the following:The destination page - “Posting proposals” is designed in a different way than regular Aurena pages: it uses functions as the data source for the list element on this page. With this design, the current Aurena framework cannot support search/filtering support for this page. So navigations from the lobby or elsewhere cannot give the desired filtering here. (Note that even the “Search“option is not available for this page) As the posting proposals window is central in all invoice follow up, it is very unfortunate that filtering from lobby element is not working.My question to all you smart people in IFS Community is; Is there a possibility to navigate from lobby element and instruct the Posting Proposal page through parameters to open with a pre-defined search? Best regardsIrene

Good morning.  I am not seeing the Organisation Tree for Employees in the Supervisor Access Setup window.  What could be the reason for this?  I did “uncheck” the fields at the top e.g Only Supervised Organisations.  Thank you.

Hi Experts, I'm using a shipment order to transfer parts from a site to a remote warehouse, however, once I deliver the parts, the incoming dispatch advice is not created for the remote warehouse.

Hi,Does anybody know if the way IFS handles Estimate Item  > Required Date for components of BOM’s has changed from Apps10 to Cloud?In Apps 10, when I add an Item Type of PRODUCT (Part with BOM) and enter a Required Date, the subcomponent dates are planned. When I perform the same process in Cloud (24R2), my entered Required Date is populated into all sub-components. They are not planned like Apps10. I cannot find any reference to this functionality changing. Does anybody know if and when it was changed? 

This is regarding a customer who is  manufacturing and purchasing Refrigerators mainly. When purchasing refrigerators they buy products from China. Also, they are getting Spare parts also from the same supplier.Ex: Part X is use in refrigerator models A, B  Spare part Finished product model X A,B Y A,C Z C   So, their requirement is when they Search by Spare part – it should show the refrigerator model connected inventory part and vice versa – when search for refrigerator model connected inventory part, it should show the spare parts.This is irrespective of the refrigerator is manufactured or purchased. They don’t have maintenance module in use, meaning no equipment objects defined in the application.  Is there any other way of handling this without using maintenance module spare part handling?

Hi All, Since yesterday we discovered that we are getting failed transactions when we are updating the status of the Work Assignments to any value like accepted or started. The error message is: "Undefined bind variable 'OBJ_VERSION'”We don't know why this is happening and how we can solve it.We were experimenting with Custom Pages and Custom entities to sync it to the MWO, so we reverted all changes once we discovered failed transactions are appearing. So the Page Design, Navigator Design and the Projection for ServiceEngApp are all standard again. However we can't be sure that this error is due to our experiment.Is there anyone who tell is what we should and whether this has been seen before?Extra informationThis is happening for multiple users. Creating Time Transactions is still possible from MWO and updating the description of the Work Task also get's synchronized. It really seems to happen on status updates of the Work Assignment.  

Has anybody configured something in IFS to perform asset pre-start checks?Machine operators should answer a list of questions before starting the machine. We can trigger the questions using eforms and workflow configuration. However, we also need to trigger work orders for the machine for failed checks.   

For database tasks parameters comes automatically based on definition. But  I want to use custom parameter for that same method call. For example, I want to call   ACTIVE_SEPARATE_API.MOVE_TO_HISTORY method but instead of  WO_NO_ as a parameter, I want to run this method for all the work order having work type “Preventive Maintenance”. So I want to add WORK_TYPE_ID_ as a parameter. How to do it?  

Hello Community,We are using ISO20022 payment format when generating Supplier Payment Orders. I would like to know, where should we enter data in IFS, so that we can get the data into Authstn xml tag.Thank you.

Hello,I am trying to figure out how the percentages work in the Document Footer in cloud.  I have 6 columns and trying to get things moved to where it looks nice on the report is very hard using percentages.  I have placed with the numbers and the fields don’t move the way I think they should move.  I want the US, address over by Restek and Phone close to the phone number and tax number text over more.  But as soon as I start trying to move the address over it moves but the phone number goes with it because I have to increase the numbers because I am reducing the address numbers. Does anyone have any clue on how the percentages work?  I have all the fields in the report defined left justified so I can see where the fields actually start at.

Our company is using IFS Cloud 24.1. I am building lobby elements. When I test them, they seem to work perfectly. When anyone else uses them, the navigation errors. The elements are set up to pull the User ID as a filter. The information on the element is showing correctly for each User. It is only when clicking on the element that they receive an error. DatasourceElementI am able to use the element to navigate to the page with the appropriate filters applied. Anyone who uses the same element receives this error:IFS Web Version: 24.1.11.20250402072834.0Date: 2025-05-09T11:22:27.062Z---------------------------------------------------------------------------PurchaseRequisitionLines/List (server error)An internal server error occurred.

Hello, We currently use customer agreements in Apps10, which are primarily driven by dates. We would like to drive this using volume as well. For example, a customer contracts us for 100,000 lbs of material. That price is good within the date range for that qty of product. Once they reach 100,001 lbs, we want to issue a new contract, most likely at a different price. It appears that the supplier agreement kind of works this way. Is there a way to achieve this with customer agreements.

Hi all,A question on Master schedule and demand/supply behavior of customer orders with supply code shop order and shop orders related to these orders.We are running cloud 24.2.7.  I have the problem that IFS generates supply from shop orders that are created via customer orders with supply code: shop order, but the connected customer orders don't create demand in the master schedule.This means that we have a forecast for a next month, but the supply created by the shop order connected to the customer order makes that the system tells us to create less for this month, see screenshot: We drop the forecast at the start of the month.  Can someone explain this logic or am I missing settings? Kind regards, Evert
