IFS Cloud 23R1 SU4I’ve tried scheduling a Business Reporter report with the scheduling functionality introduced in 22R2.I’ve noticed the following:3 application messages are created for below settings the first 2 app messages I understand what they are and I get the email for these notifications The 3rd application message fails with NO ROUTING RULE FOUND. Also the input message only refers to data from report Archive.Does anyone have any idea how is this supposed to work? I don’t wanna have failed application messages. I could create a Routing Rule to catch this message and don’t do anything with it, but I’d like to understand what’s the purpose of the 3rd application message.
We use pegging in shop orders a lot, and having just started using the ‘projects’ section of IFS we are now in a position where we are executing our first builds. We need to peg a shop order (created through shop order requisitions) into a shop order material line that has a supply type of ‘project inventory’ but are struggling with this? Is this possible, or does IFS stop you from pegging to project inventory lines?
Is there a way to supress some of these options in “Shop Floor Workbench” with page designer or another method? We spent quite a bit of time in the “Dialog” portion of page designer but couldn’t find a way. We also do not want to use “Shop Floor Reporting User Settings per Site” as it’s to granular and is missing options we’re trying to supress. Using 24R1 currently.
We are using Business Opportunities and try to follow the sales pipeline development over time. We have IFS Cloud 24R1 SU4. When looking at the pipeline data we have significantly lower number of business opportunities in the snapshot compared to when we look at the business opportunity at any given moment in time. We do the same query by status of BO, excluding, Cancelled, Closed and On Hold, so is there something I’m missing here. I assume that every snapshot should contain all BO or is it just the ones that are changed from last snapshot. We where missing about 37% of the BO in the snapshot. Anyone else experienced this issue?
Got a question from a end-user during testing of 25R1 SU3 that I just repost here.She has been using the options on ‘?’ frequently to get the syntax correct for her queries.Can someone explain why it has been removed? 25R1 SU3 - available options for a date field24R1 SU12 - available options for a date field> greater than search still works in 25R1 :-)
The lobby elements timeout in IFS Cloud. When i try to retrieve the data again, somtimes it works but some of them always timeout. I have already checked their queries and everything seems fine. How can I extend the time to retrieve data before timeout? Currently it retrieves data in 2 minutes. I want to extend it to 5 minutes.
Hi all,we are using the NGSM with Requests and Request Work Tasks.When planning we face a big issue when it comes to transferring Work Tasks:If one assignment is transferred to mobile it is not possible to transfer a second assignment.So it is impossible to send a second technician to the same Task if required but not initially known.Or if some mistake was made during assigning. For example in the Dispatch Console if one resource demand is assigned and directly transferred before assigning the second demand, it is no longer possible to send the second one to the technicians mobile.We have now cases, where one assignment is already set to completed and the second one is not even transferred to mobile. But because the first one is completed it is also not possible to cancel the assignment.So the only solution is to cancel the complete Task and create a new one.Is there any way to get this done, that I am not aware of?Example: Second assignment cant be transferred anymore
Hello. In this screen :link : ifsapf:frmAbsencePlansAndRequests I would need to display an informative message in between the step in which the user selects a certain type of absence (CP in my case) and the step to save his form.Is that possible?IFS APPS 10 UPD 5
When I use the Failure Analysis Setup Navigator I can add a Function to an Item Class, but then when I select the Function I thought I was supposed to get the ability to add a Fault Type Code. However, I do not see a way to do so. I cannot find any screenshots anywhere that shows what this specific interface is supposed to look like, but I think a table is missing. Does anybody have any idea what is going on?
Community, We don't see the solution that O level structure could be transferred like what we do manufacturing structure in IFS. We are in APP10 Did we miss anything? Thank you.
Hi everyone,We’re currently in the process of implementing IFS and will be using the Shopfloor Workbench as our MES interface for shop floor employees.Right now, we’re exploring different options for how our floor personnel will interact with the system — including hardware choices, workstation layout, and overall integration with the machines.Would anyone be open to a walkthrough of your plant floor and hardware setup? We’d really appreciate the chance to see how others have approached this and learn from your experience.Thanks in advance!
Hi All,In cloud 24R2 environment, the email sending functionality in SSRS operational reports is not working.Is there any specific configuration required to enable this feature?I also checked the Application Messages, but no records were created after clicking OK in the Print Assistant.Appreciate your guidance on this. Thank you…
Is there a roadmap item to start and stop MRAs in MWO to capture the actual time vs the estimated time a technician spends on these tasks? This would allow PSO to adjust the schedule and also capture the appropriate timesheet duration.
We are using Entra as SSO to IFS MWO. When a user presses the button ‘log-in using Entra’, the UPN/email is not automatically populated. This causes the login experience to be very cumbersome. All devices that use MWO are enrolled in Intune.Is there anyone that have encountered and/or solved this issue?
We have a raw material that needs to be changed from regular purchase to consignment part. I know to change the Ownership to Consignment in the Supplier for Purchase Part and to update our default location so we meet the requirements of consignment parts in stock. My question is what if we have current Inventory in Stock? Do we need to do something with it? We are in APPS10 update 11
When I am in a page such as Part Cost and I want to search by Part Description, how can I find against which record in IFS this search is actually being performed? Is this using the Part, the Inventory Part, etc.? Is it being performed explicitly against this LU or an underlying LU or view?

Dear community,more than 80% of our lobby data scources based on complex IALs. Our database is in cloud.And I am concerned about the lobby performance in the future if we have millions of data. Currently we are not live with IFS.So I am asking for your opinion.
Dear IFS, When creating a supplier invoice that references a subcontract, the automatic posting proposal authorization does not trigger - even if the lines are 100% matched with the subcontract certificate valuation. This leads to unnecessary manual effort and time loss for the authorizers (every sub contract invoice must be authorized). Workarounds, such as assigning a dedicated authorization group to the subcontract account and automating it via workflow, are ineffective. These would authorize both fully matched cases (desired) and cases with deviations (undesired). Given that large invoice amounts are processed through this flow, our customers perceive this as an audit gap.This process is comparable to a PO receipt, where a 100% match results in automatic invoice authorization. Please extend this functionality to this subcontract scenario as well. Several of our customers have raised this request. Please refer to the following IFS community post, where this topic is also discussed.
Hi Team, When creating a manual supplier invoice referencing a subcontract, the automatic posting proposal authorization doesn't appear to work when the lines are 100% matched with the subcontract certificate valuation. Can someone assist me with setting up automatic authorization for Sub contract Supplier Invoicing? Thanks,Garima
Hello Community,I would like to know if it’s possible to export the existing permission sets from APP10 and import them back into IFS Cloud after the upgrade.If this isn’t possible, what would be the best way to achieve this?Thank you!
Hi,There is function call ‘Copy Postings’ in MSI. However, it didn’t get copy the postings from previous invoice even I select the invoice with similar values. Is there any other basic data setup that we need to set. I checked in the cloud documents too and couldn’t find any specific setting.Note - I checked with 2 companies and 1 company is enabled for ‘Supplier Posting Propasal’ and other company is not. not worked for any of the company.
Hi all,is it somehow possible to remove all Work Task Steps with Status Not Done and Cancelled on a Service Report?So that only the ones marked as Done appear?Regards,Chris
