Hi,We have setup inter site customer order and purchase order setup between 2 companies and performing below transactions.Company A deliver goods to Company B and perform create invoice and send invoice function. Then External supplier invoice is created in Company B, and they receive the purchase order using ‘Register Arrival’ Company B perform ‘Match Invoices with PO receipt’ task and it will match the external supplier invoice with PO However, Invoice is in ‘PrelPosted’ and user needs to do ‘Post Invoice’ function in MSI to post the invoice. Note - We disable the ‘Create Posting at Invoice Entry’ toggle. If we enable this toggle, it’s getting posted without an issue. However, customer doesn’t need to enable this toggle as they want to perform ‘Post Invoice’ function for invoices receiving from external suppliers.we have enabled the ‘Automatic Posting Irrespective of the company settings’ External Supplier Invoice Parameters. I think it should get post the invoice based on ‘External
Our client has a time reporting setup as follows:Employee: Report time and confirm time Line Manager: Authorize time Project Manager: Approve timeHowever, can project time approval for cost accounting be controlled until the line manager authorizes the time?
Hello,I was trying to find if it’s possible to configure K8s ephemeral storage value for a deployment of an service in the ifscloud-values.yaml file.Specifcally I need to change ephemeral-storage value to ~16G for ifsapp-reporting-ren deployment in our IFS Cloud instance. Some pods has been crashing due to Eviction caused by exceeding the limit of ephemeral storage.Changing it via: kubectl edit deploy ifsapp-reporting-ren -n "NAMESPACE"after every delivery deployment could be frustrating and our team can easily forget about this step.Offical documentation only mentions replicas paramter:I couldn’t find values for k8s deployment requests and limits...Maybe there is some way to configure it to be constant, so that delivery installation will not erase it ?
Hi,We are working on upgrading our IFS 10 UPD 22 version to IFS Cloud 25 R1.Upgrade. This will be On-Prem to On-Prem UpgradeWe would like to know whether the database upgrade can be performed in a customer-hosted (On-Prem) interim environment rather than doing it in an environment hosted by IFS. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could provide some insight into this matter.

Dear IFS Experts, We are currently upgrading two IFS customers: one from IFS 9 to IFS Cloud and the other from IFS 10 to IFS Cloud. Both customers are already hosted in the IFS Managed Cloud, and they will continue to be hosted there after upgrading to IFS Cloud. This means we cannot upgrade directly on the IFS use place production environment in the Managed Cloud. Instead, we have to use an interim database outside of the Managed Cloud to run the upgrade scripts. This approach requires us to: Export (Data Pump) the current database (based on IFS 9 or IFS 10). Upload the dump file to Azure Storage. Download the dump file from Azure Storage to the interim environment to prepare for the upgrade. Import the dump file to the interim database. Perform the upgrade. Complete all validations. Create an Oracle PDB Archive file as per the IFS Managed Cloud procedure. Upload the PDB Archive file to Azure Storage. Download the PDB Archive file from Azure Storage to the IFS live production environm
We’re working in IFS Cloud 24R2 and trying to add a new top-level folder in Navigator Designer. Logged in as IFSAPP, we can add entries and sub-nodes under existing folders, but we don’t see any option to add a new root-level folder directly.Is there a supported way to add a top-level folder in the navigator structure? Are there specific steps, permissions, or contexts required to make this option available?Additionally, we’re looking to apply similar navigation changes for B2B users. However, when accessing the B2B portal—even as IFSADMIN—we don’t see the Navigator Designer option at all. Is there a way to configure or assign custom navigation for B2B users?Any guidance or confirmation from others working with 24R2 and B2B portal setup would be greatly appreciated.
Hello, I'm Markus and I'm new here in this community, and this is my first post.One of my tasks is to prepare the master data from the old ERP and migrate it to the IFS cloud. Of course, a lot of mapping is necessary, as we don't have this many columns and tables in the old ERP.I learned from our consulting to use these data migration tools: Migration Job for LOAD and for MIGI have a VPN to the IFS cloud and can select the data VIEWS via ORACLE SQL Developer to reconcile the column names and fields for the migration job files or to build the mapping for this.Is there a best practice for the migration of master datafrom our old ERP to our IFS cloud?Thank you very much for your knowledgeGreetingsMarkus
We're trying to customize the B2B portal navigation in our IFS Cloud environment, but we've hit a roadblock. When logged in as IFSADMIN through the B2B interface, we don't see the Navigator Designer option at all. It's also missing from the main Navigator Designer page when trying to edit navigation for B2B users.Has anyone successfully configured B2B navigation or found a workaround for this limitation? Is Navigator Designer intentionally restricted for B2B contexts, or are we missing a setup step?Any insights or guidance would be appreciated!
Where can I find 25R1 documentation ?

Hello,On our IFS tool, we have implemented a password policy. This allows us to define how passwords are created.Some people can modify the implemented policy.We need to configure the password history page so that, if there is a change to the "password policy" page, we can know who modified the page, on what day, and at what time.We can't find the entity behind the "password policy" page so that we can enter it on the "password history" page and track the change history.Does anyone have a solution?
Hi experts,when we search data in the Inventory_Transaction_History screen (with &AO.INVENTORY_TRANSACTION_HIST2) we will see also data in the “sub-mask” Accounting &AO.MPCCOM_ACCOUNTING. The header shows Transaction Code and the sub-mask a field called Event Code.The IFS help states:Transaction Code:The first field displays the code of the transaction (system event). The second displays the description, as defined in the system events data setup.Transaction Description:The transaction (system event) description. This description can be changed in the Business Event window.And:Posting EventThe ID of the financial event (system event) , which (in all cases but invoicing) occurs in connection with certain transactions (material, labor, operation, purchase) in IFS Manufacturing and IFS Distribution.System Event DescriptionThe transaction (system event) description. This description can be changed in the Business Event window.In our case we have more than 21 millions of recor

Is it possible to have a PO line split the charge to two projects and adjust based on percentage. So a line with a qty of 10 at a $10 unit cost could have the $100 split 38% to one activity and 62% to another activity? Or some other way to accomplish this?

I am trying to perform a File Operation>Copy File To operation (and Distribute>Send Document File By Email) to copy Document Revisions to my computer and it seems like the limit is 15 Documents. When I select 15 documents, the function File Operation>Copy File is visible…as well as the Distribute>Send Document Files by E-Mail. When I select 16 or more files, the option for File Operation is no longer on the screen. Is there a setting somewhere we can change to allow more documents to be selected?Thanks,Gregg
Hello IFS Community,Quick question — I’m investigating the command code “E-mail Customer Confirmation.”I can see the definition in both the client and the projection file for the action:EmailCustomerOrder { parameter CustomerRef Text; parameter Contract Text; parameter Email Text; parameter CustomerNo Text; parameter ReportId Text; } However, where can I find the code or logic that is executed when this command runs?
We’re working with a customer scenario where users authenticate through Azure AD, and then access IFS Cloud via external middleware (Node.js app calling IFS APIs).Each time the middleware connects, users still see the IFS login splash screen and must click “Login with SSO”, even though they already have an active Azure session.We’d like to achieve a more seamless experience — ideally silent or background SSO using the existing Azure token, while still keeping authentication user-based and license-compliant.One of our colleagues suggested disabling two-factor authentication (MFA) for a specific SSO user in Azure AD to avoid the extra MFA dialog.He also mentioned that another customer (APP10) successfully used a REST API call via an SSO user with MFA disabled.Before we proceed, could anyone please confirm or share: If there’s any official documentation or configuration guide (IFS Cloud IAM + Azure AD) describing how to disable MFA for selected SSO users. Whether this approach truly all
Hi!We’d like to be able to access data from IFS Cloud projections’ REST API while maintaining end user permissions from a third-party mobile application in which end users connect with Microsoft SSO. With the IDP configured in IFS we have been able to get microsoft’s token but it is not the one accepted by keycloak so our calls don’t work and we are not able to do a “token-exchange” with keycloak as it seems that this option is disabled.Is there a way for us to use Microsoft SSO as our primary IDP, and use that access token or to enable the “token-exchange” option on keycloak, to execute queries on projections API while maintaining end-user permissions ?
