Is there a way with either a workflow or report rule, that lets you print an attachment once an operational form is printed? I have attachments for shipments that I would like to have printed when I print the shipment delivery note. I have added the capability for attachments to be added to shipments.Any advise would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,Bryan

Hi All,I am seeing this odd behaviour in cloud 24R1 version. I received my serial tracked part to an arrival location. I didn't specify any serials yet. Then I performed the inspection and scrapped that part for no credit.  Now when I try to Undo the inspection results, it gives me this error message.  Anyone else faced the same issue? Thanks,Chamath

Hi Everyone,We have recently upgraded from APPS9 to APPS10 and have noticed that on the production receipt that the option to Backflush and Defer Backflush is no longer available.Has this capability been removed from APPS10? And if so is there an alternative procedure in APPS 10 to replace this?Many Thanks,Dan

We have one site that receives and manufactures on Monday - Thursday, but we ship Monday - Friday. We had to set the Manufacturing Calendar M - F so we could get Need Dates on Friday (all work center calendars M - Th). We tried setting the site distribution calendar M - Th and set a delivery route on all customers for M - F but that didn’t work. All of our suppliers/customers are shared among multiple sites and our other sites do receive on Friday. Not sure if this is something for supply chain matrix for site, but looks like you have to do all suppliers and supplier addresses individually with other mandatory fields like lead times we don’t care to set there. Any ideas would be super helpful.

Hello, We have a ‘super user’ in the business who wishes to view all background jobs; however currently can only see jobs submitted by themselves. I know by granting system privilege ADMINISTRATOR would enable this, however it would also give them too much access. Is there a way of allowing them to view all background jobs without giving them full admin access?  They also wish to view scheduled database tasks...so same question will apply to this area We are using Apps 8. Regards Shaun

Hello, just in the process of testing the RMA function and can’t seem to see an option to return to stock (which is what physically happens), have I not set something up in the background correctly? I’m logged in as IFSAPP so shouldn’t be a permission issue. Please see screen shot below. 

Hi Team,We are performing a Release Update (24R2) on the Release Update Studio. However, if the update is left incomplete for some reason and remains unfinished until 2025, when the Cloud team releases version 25R1, would it be possible to skip the incomplete 24R2 update and directly perform a Release Update to 25R1? Or would it be impossible to perform the new Release Update (25R1) unless the incomplete Release Update (24R2) is either completed or reverted? Thanks! Best regards,Feng

We do not always want to calculate a percentage, but offer a specific value discount.Is there a way to offer a discount as a value (e.g. £1000) instead of a percentage?

I would like to ask whether it is possible to configure IFS Cloud 24.2.2 so that when manufacturing a new (valid) version of a product, the system automatically considers the new (valid) version of the input component as well.Currently, we are experiencing an issue where, during the reservation of input components for a Shop Order (setting Reserve/Issue Method is Reserve And Backflush), the system incorrectly reserves an older version of the component (if it is in stock) instead of the currently valid version. Is there a way to adjust this behavior in the system settings?Thank you for your help and advice.

Is there a way to implement this restriction while maintaining our current setup?Additionally, could you clarify the functionality of “Restricted Access” toggle on the document revision screen?

Recording a deviation day type enables a flexible, day-specific response to time bookings that take place outside the regular work schedule. This can be largely automated via the shift change or by assigning a deviation day type.Especially with regard to the planning of day types via the team calendar, the responsible planner can be given a high level of planning responsibility by entering the deviation day type. When entering the deviation day type, however, additions must be made so that it can be used more effectively.Availability of a PeriodeIt must be possible to define a period, better than just one dayThis means that deviation days can be recorded for a day or for a period. A parameter prevents the recording of data for longer than one week, for example.  Availability of Data Access As a rule, all tag types are offered for selection. However, this is not useful as only limited availability is required for the team leader.As with data access for absences, there should be a data a

Hi,I cannot find it described in Localization description for Italy, so I am asking here. What is the correct way of setup address for country Italy to get Italian e-invoice (PA Fattura) working in IFS? I was thinking about setting province codes of Italy as States, but it does not work - source value of mandatory tag <Provincia> goes from County field in address (company/customer/supplier) - so how should I set up the dictionary for County codes? This dictionary relates to States list, but States are not used in the e-invoice messages and I have no idea what should be list of values for States of Italy.   

Hi,  We have an issue in Apps 10 MWO when using surveys with Yes/No questions. We have made Remarks enabled so, if necessary, the user can add for either Yes/ No.  However, when we revisit the survey, the added remark is removed and is filled with Yes/No depending on the answer we select for the question. Is this a known issue? Anyone knows why it could be happening?  Added remarks first time: Revisiting the survey:

Hello framework experts, I am on 24R1 at the moment. I have a scenario to import employee expenses from an external service provider. I created an external payment template and i can successfully import the file. Until here, there is no problem.  In the external file, I have GL account and Cost Center that are mapped to BankTranscationInfo1 and BankTransactionInfo2. I want to create a workflow that will loop payment lines for the particular load and read the 2 fields and set CodeA and CodeB values. Here is my first part of workflow. I can read the array. Here I am assigning variables. But i have an error that I cannot resolve by myself.  Here i want to update the 2 fields. I am new to workflows and discovering how it works. Anyone to help for this scenario? Thanks Furkan 

Hi IFS Community,What is the best practice to generate opening balances in Group Consolidation?In IFS Cloud, there are two options available for generating opening balances in Group Consolidation:- Update Opening Balances- Consolidate Balances (for period 0)To generate opening balances for the 2024 0 period, we used the Update Opening Balances option.Everything is correct except for the lack of allocation of year end result from account 20999 to account 2098  and the lack of allocation the non controlling interest from account 20992 to account 20993. We don't want to change balances in the 2023 12 period, so we cannot register adjustments for the 2023 12 period to make the above allocations. We tried using the Consolidation Opening Balance Update Rule function to allocate the year end result, and it worked correctly, but there is still a lack of allocation of the non controlling interest (only one Consolidation Opening Balance Update Rule can be defined).Do you have any suggestions on

Hi ,Can someone please explain exactly how the formula works for auto update safety stock functionality ?Help document doesn’t elaborate the details enough to understand the logic behind it. My understanding is that there are 3 parameters which drive the calculation and it uses the Wilson formula ;Safety stock (pieces) = Safety factor  * standard deviation for demand (pieces/period) * square root of part lead time (period)I understand how the safety factor is calculated using the service rate, my questions are on;How exactly “ standard deviation for demand” calculated? Is it looking at the ‘No of issues’ in On Hand Development per Period?  and doing the excel calculation of STDEV for No of Issues in that said statistical period you are entering in ‘Calculate Planning Data’ ? ( If the period is 6 , does IFS looks at the 6 records of No of issues corresponding to the past 6 periods and calculate the STDEV?)  How is ‘Square Root of Part Lead time (period)’ being calculated ? Is it simply
