Hi, We are in APP10. We don’t have VIM module installed. we don’t have CRO. We are testing component repair using Repair Work Order. We can take the component off from its parent using repiar work order, after repair, wondering how to install it back to the original equipment structure? Thank you. 

Has anyone out there recently started having problems with communicated PO’s not showing PDF copies of PO’s on the B2B Supplier Portal? Everything for us was working fine for years until recently. Now, when our puchasing department communicates a PO, it may or may not send the PDF of the PO to the portal. It happens randomly and it hard to reproduce. If a user goes back into a failed PO and re-communicates the PO, it will work without anything having changed otherwise. It can happen at any time of the day, to any user, and to any supplier. We recently patched IFS and, coincidentally, this is about the timeframe when the problem started, though we can’t say for sure that is related.

Hello. I was wondering if there was a way to get a newly created voucher number in a workflow? I found that when using a custom event, it would give you a number that’s associated with a transfer id rather than the newly created voucher number. This would be used to read the manual voucher and then I’d attach an approval template to the manual voucher itself. I was hoping there may be a more consistent way to get the newest voucher no. Thanks. Thanks,Jay

I am getting the following message when trying to complete an existing migration job Any help please

Just putting some feelers out there to try and understand the current picture from other users. We are trying to upgrade our Build Place to 25R2 (25.2.2) from 25R1 (25.1.2) however have hit a number of snags. Firstly, we were unable to take 25.2.1 due to a notice in the Lifecycle Experience portal that there were issues with certain modules in the solutionset that would cause a failure during installation. We decided to wait until 25.2.2 for this to be resolved.Upon release of 25.2.2 in the past week, we attempted to get the delivery into our Release Studio. Per step 3 of release studio (applying to baseline repo), the build failed. Upon raising a support case for this, it appears there is an issue with certain solutionsets of which we have to now wait until 25.2.3 until it’s resolved.Wondering if anyone else is having a similar experience? Without getting too subjective, we have not had a great experience with getting builds out of the Release St

Hi I was wondering if there was some documentation or suggestions for dealing with First Article Inspection for manufacturing on IFS. I was hoping for something that would help for implementating.Thanks  

Dear IFS Community,  IFS Support team forwarded me to here with the question: In Germany there will be a mandatory e-invoicing.Please see the below link:https://www.bdo.global/en-gb/insights/tax/indirect-tax/germany-mandatory-e-invoicing-what-you-need-to-know!As this is a mandatory government regulation, my question would be, when, how and which UPD will IFS provide an official solution to handle this requirement?I also found this post: E-invoicing for Germany | IFS Community but this does not contains the tags IFS mentioned, so I raised this topi again.  Kind regards, Balazs

Hi All, Reaching out to customers who have upgraded or are in the process of upgrading to the IFS Cloud version. What AI capabilities have you been able to leverage during the implementation to reduce time to upgrade and accuracy of migration. With the use cases around Claude and other AI models in code generation and analysis, this seems a good use case to help customers with the upgrade process. Appreciate everyone’s inputs. Thanks,Nitin. 

Hello eveyrone,In the GL Balance Analysis screen, is there any way to filter out or eliminate lines with a zero balance?We currently see accounts with no postings (debit = 0, credit = 0, balance = 0) being displayed year after year due to the automatic opening balance.These lines are not relevant from a business point of view.Can anyone please advise if there is a standard way (filter, setting, parameter) to hide or exclude zero balance lines?Thank you. Regards,Fatimetou Taleb

Does IFS have Supply Chain Finance payment setup? We are currently stuying some options to improve AP process and we can choose SCF but we need to control it in IFS when supplier get paid earlier and when we process the payment to the bank

Hi, We’re on Cloud 25R1 SU5. Have a general question about using Dispatch Console.As dispatch console shows only a limited date range into the past (max 14 days), what is the expected tool to view or plan active assignments and work tasks that are, say, older than 14 days? The dispatchers then have to use two or more pages - one for the tasks that appear on DC and the others for the tasks that don’t appear? How do you make this process easier for the dispatchers?Cheers.

Hi all,As in Italy, outgoing SEPA payment files  must meet the new xml schema version , the current one in IFS is no more relevant at the bank.Current xml schema version : 00.04.00, expected new version : 00.04.01Has some of the IFS  community users already faced this issue ?Attached technical documentation in Italian.Thank to all for your feedbackKind regardsJulien BOUDEAUIT Finance PM Beneteau Group

We are using the Migration Toolkit (mtk tables) to migrate from a legacy system to IFS Cloud. All is going well except for the material value of components issued to shop orders. For a given component, it can be issued to multiple shop orders at different values. The mtk lot serial table and the mtk material tables have fields for inventory value but what we put in these fields is ignored. Regardless of what we do, components are issued to the shop order using the inventory value on the inv part. Does someone have a process for migrating wip value when the component’s value can be different on different shop orders.

Hello Community,During the shipment process in IFS Cloud,  a client sometimes pack goods that exceed the standard height defined for the Handling Unit Type. We can manually adjust the height of the handling unit in the shipment’s Handling Unit Structure, but the operative volume does not update automatically based on the new height.Is there a standard way in IFS Cloud to ensure that when I manually update the HU height (or when the packed goods exceed the defined height), the operative volume recalculates automatically?If not, is there an intended setup, configuration (e.g., additive volume), or recommended workaround (event action, customization, or integration approach) to achieve this?Or will this be updated in the coming releases? Do we have this on the pipeline for future releases?Thanks in advance!

Hi CommunityI’m looking for few references in IFS AI functionalities for Asset Management. I’m specially interested in Anomaly Detection, Asset Performance Management,  Equipment Health Monitoring areas.Thanks. 

Hi,we are currently deploying IFS Scan It on Zebra Android devices (Android 14+) in a shared-device environment managed via SOTI MobiControl. We have identified a critical technical issue during the FIDO2/NFC authentication flow that prevent a successful rollout:When IFS Scan It initiates an authentication request for a FIDO2 security key (USB), the Android Credential Manager provides the user with the option to create a local screen lock or a device-bound Passkey: In our shared-device environment, it is critical that users do not have the option to set private PINs or Passkeys on shared hardware. This leads to accidental lockouts and high administrative overhead. We have already encountered the issue of some users setting a PIN on shared devices. Could you kindly confirm whether there is a plan to fix this issue?

Hi everyone, I have a customer who encounters a weird issue with configured columns that are getting reset. I suspect this to be a bug. The user configures the columns within his personal user profile, but for no specific time slots the columns are getting reset back to what I believe is the standard column configuration within the basis profile.The user only encounters the problem on the screen of Posting Proposals.I’ve tried to set up history log on that page, but it doesnt log the changes. To do it even more confusing, if the user is then waiting and not manually configuring them back to his preferred positions, they will automatically within like 1-2 hours go back to his configured way. Happening in IFS10 UPD25

Hello everyone,I'm trying to update a value in an invoice, but it's not working. For testing, I hardcoded the Company and InvoiceId values.Here are the screenshots of the steps: Read Invoice Data Update Invoice Final Read The OurReference field doesn't update—Step 3 still shows the old value.However, it works when using Postman.Any ideas why this might be happening? 

Good afternoon,Is it possible to create a Quick Report with an SQL query that lists currently active users for a selected company?Kind regards,Jan 

Hi,We are using Aurena Agent and this gives us possibility to print on physical printers. We can set default printer for logical printers, but is it possible to pre-define physical printer to be default printer and the “default” printer will be filled out in Print Dialog by default?The printer is already defined as default printer on this PC, but it does not help. “No Printout” is filled out in Print Dialog.Can set up Print Dialog so it will “remember” the last used/selected printer?I think PrintDialog “remembered” the last used printer in earlier versions of IFS Cloud (22R1-23R1) but not after the last update (23R2Su5).Br.

Hi,Is there anyone that can show me how to create a Quick Report that shows last login date and time of all Users in IFS10? I have asked a lot of my fellow consultants and no one seams to know how to create it.

Hi Experts,Iam not succeeding to commit activities automatically from the PSO.I can see that the PSO is sending the Dispatch Suggestion: On the IFS Cloud i can see the DSP message on the Scheduling Optimization Output messages as shown below, but no feedback from the IFS cloud to confirm the suggestion, and on the Application messages and background jobs there is no any feedback about Dispatch suggestion recieved from the PSO or any failed/error message . I ve checked the Commit rule mapping with Rule collection on the PSO and with the collection rule on the IFS cloud. Also the Rule Collection with resource Type. All ok.Schedule Dispatch Service is activated on th dataset.
