HiWe have set this up before and it worked but since we moved to R23.2 U17 suddenly I do not have the option of adding an attachment anymore. The only option I have is “Create new”. There used to be three options.Anybody else have this problem? and how can I solve it? Thanks for checking and sharing.Judith
Dear all,Is there a way in IFS Cloud to assign shop order operations and allocate labour hours to individual employees, rather than assigning them to a labour class?If so, could you advise on the functionality or configuration required to support this? Thank you and kind regards,Samiru
Good Day, We cannot find a solution as to why the Cash Plan is not returning data in the Snapshot. We have followed all the correct setup steps as well as created a lot of data - Invoices, Payment Proposals, Purchase Orders, Customer Orders etc. The snapshot is ordered but the analysis is empty. Please help I have to give a customer training and none of the consultants are able to create a Cash Plan successfully. Kind Regards Amanda
Hi Experts,I was wondering if there is a way to manage standard tasks revisions in NGSM solution. As of at 25R2 and 26R1 I was unable to find any as such. In previous work order solution, task templates have this capability. This is a very crucial business requirement whoever using standard tasks in their business as updating any changes on revisions in all over the system manually is a tedious task, unless a quite complex CRIM is build.Any workarounds or plans to get this functionality into the core pls ?Thank you,Roshan
Hello -We are on Apps10 and use standard inventory costing. We use purchase charge types for tariff costs. The charges are connected to a part PO line. The charge line is received when the PO part line is received. We have a problem with matching the supplier invoice to the PO line if the invoice is billing a partial quantity. The receipt qty on the charges PO line can not be changed when matching. So, if there were 3 parts received but the invoice is for 1, the parts line receipt qty can be edited and matched to a quantity of 1but the charges line can only be matched for a qty of 3. Is this the expected behavior or is there a setting that allows the receipt qty to be edited when matching? The purchase charge type is setup with the option of unit charge checked and I have tried other options on the charge type but all have the same result.Thanks

My team is developing a report in Report Designer for IFS Cloud 25R1 25.1.3, and we found that the report requires a large amount of data. The XML size is 33 MB, containing 40,000 records.This causes the following error:See nested exception; nested exception is: java.lang.Exception: See nested Throwable Caused by: See nested ThrowableDo you have any recommendations for resolving this case?
The team migrating Crystal Reports to IFS Report Studio Designer found an issue when previewing reports using the IFS Report Studio Designer layout: the font size changes and becomes 1 pt larger.Currently, we are using font substitution and changing the size by -1. This works only for font sizes <= 10 pt. Field still bigger on larger font size.Is there any way to fix this or any work around suggest?IFS version: 25.1.3
Hello Lovely people,I have spotted unusual issue with IFS. We have BOM structure as per below.Item A- Sub con process ( Item type purchased)Item A1-Sub con process ( item type purchased)we use item type “purchased” for Sub con process.here itemA1 is child part of itemA. Now After MRP run I could only see the demand generated for “Item A “ only.. However “ ItemA1” does not show any demand?I am not sure if anyother MRP set up needs to be done in order to allow both item to be planned in IFS?I came across below set up in “ Inventory Part” Screen? What is the importance of this field ? is it auto populate by IFS or someone need to do manually?

Currently, when designing reports in Report Studio, we require a font that supports multiple languages, including Thai, Vietnamese, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese. In previous environments, Arial Unicode MS has been the preferred font because it provides broad multilingual character support.However, in IFS Cloud 25.1.3, Arial Unicode MS is not available in Report Studio, even after the font has been installed on the Report Server.which font or approach is recommended to configure a single font that supports all required languages, similar to Arial Unicode MS, without upgrading to IFS Cloud 25.2. Alternatively, is it possible to achieve the same result by using the Font Mapping configuration in IFS?

Hello, we’re currently running 24R2 on-prem.We need some clarification on when the Crystal Reports are being Deprecated in the Cloud. We were told that Crystal was going to start going away in 25R1, and then in 25R2 they would be fully deprecated.However, we came across this in some of the IFS documentation.“Deprecation Notice:The Crystal Report integration was deprecated in the 25R2 release, reinstated effective from 25R2 SU03, and is scheduled to be deprecated again starting with the 26R2 release.”Does this mean Crystal Reports are sticking around until 26R2?Is this available to everybody as long as they upgrade to a 25R2 service update 03 or higher? If it’s only available to certain customers under certain circumstances, how would we qualify for keeping Crystal Reports in 25R2? Are there any new limitations to the Crystal Reports? If so, what are they? Will IIS and the existing Crystal services need to be changed significantly to support a 25R2+ version?Thank you,Larry

Hi all,Upgrading a remote deployment from 24R1 to 25R2 SU7 (25.2.7), Oracle 19c, standard IFS-CLOUD-MANUFACTURING solution set, no customizations.dbinstaller runs through the full cycle (kill/prepare/apply/import/cutover/cleanup) and reports success, but PROJECTION_CONFIG_ENTITY_API package body is left invalid:Line 292: PLS-00323: subprogram or cursor 'VALIDATE_ENTITY_LUS_INSTALLED' is declared in a package specification and must be defined in the package bodyLine 312: PLS-00323: subprogram or cursor 'VALIDATE_PROJ_CONFIG_ENTITIES_' is declared in a package specification and must be defined in the package bodySpec is VALID, so it looks like the shipped body just doesn't implement these two functions. This breaks PROJECTION_CONFIG_API downstream (ORA-04063/ORA-06508), which means every projection load fails with HTTP 500 - blank screen after login, both on Azure AD and local accounts.Tried:UTL_RECOMP.RECOMP_SERIAL - no change, 164 invalid objects before and after Full dbinstaller re-ru
Hello, If I make manual changes to an activity in PSO, is it possible to see who made the changes? I have found this information in the documentation and it seems like it would be possible.I have enabled the parameter ReasonRequired and now I must give a reason each time I make a change to an activity, but in the History Tab I still cannot see information about who made the changes or the reason. Should I look somewhere else or is there another parameter for that? Thank you very much,Iulia
Hi Team, We are currently using FSM Update 25 and we have noticed that the service visit history report comes in Landscape format instead of portrait can anyone confirm if this is FSM new feature. Thanks,Vikrant Singh.
Hello,I would like to know whether there is a parameter in IFS that allows the configuration of a pattern for automatically generated Part Numbers when creating an Engineering Part.For example, if I enter only "test" in the Part Description field and leave the Part Number blank, IFS generates a Part Number such as 100025.Is it possible to configure this automatic numbering scheme so that generated Part Numbers follow a specific format, for example:MAT-000001 MAT-000002 MAT-000003or any other prefix + sequence pattern?If so, where can this be configured in IFS Cloud?Thank you for your help.
I’m using version 25R2. In ACL Designer I found a bug in my environment: when creating an ACL based on projection, the searching mechanism for entities, doesn’t work. Because only 50 entries are shown in alphabetical order in the entity list, I’m not able to select some entities. Does anyone have the same problem, or is it occurring only in my environment? Attached is a document ilustrating the issue.
We are moving from Apps10 to 25R2 and we have several searches based on Inventory UoM and Purchasing UoM. In Cloud, the UoM looks like it is part of the quantity fields but the contains option doesn’t work (example ~BX in Quantity or Purchase Quantity)Anyone have a recommendation on how to search or filter by UoM on this page?
So we have a situation where we are trying to adjust the On Hand Qty of a part that is sitting in an Arrival type location. Somehow after this part was received and subsequently moved out of the arrival location, a very small quantity than 1 (see 1st screenshot) remained in the Arrival location and now we cannot adjust it out. We have tried doing an inventory issue as well as a count per inventory part but the arrival location does not show up as a location we can do the adjustment for. We have tried backing out that quantity from the PO which was somehow cancelled, but we couldn’t do it. As you can see from the second screenshot, somehow IFS performed a move for 3029.xxxxxx. And I kinda why the On Hand Qty that was left behind is what it is. This part in Inventory Part had the Qty Calc Rounding set at 16. How do we get rid of the 0.0000000000000001 qty.
Hi all,Building a CTO proof of concept on IFS Cloud 25R1 and hitting an issue I can't pin down.SetupConfigurable part created, Configurable = Yes, linked to a Configuration Family Configuration Family has Configure By Category enabled, with 7 categories and characteristics assigned to each 12 characteristics: a mix of Discrete Option and Variable Value (numeric) 3 Configuration Formulas built and approved to Valid status Part Configuration Revision at revision 1, status Test, all 12 characteristics imported Configuration Structure exists but all rules removed for testing (in case of silent issue) No sales rules currently activeBehaviourLaunching Edit Configuration from an interim order works correctly. All category tabs render. I can enter values across the first three or four tabs but then the later categories have no chars. They can be added manually but then disappear. My first issue. Then If I remove configure by category I can enter all values (Discrete Options accept selection
25.1.7Using the DMM tool, if the standard unit in IFS for INCH is ‘in’, will a part migrate if it’s unit in the legacy system is ‘IN’? Does the legacy unit case affect if the part will/will not migrate?
