Hello IFS Community,I am looking for guidance on configuring Single Sign-On (SSO) for IFS10 Aurena using Azure Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory). Specifically, I would like to know if it's possible to implement 2FA (Two-Factor Authentication) as part of the login process.To clarify, my goal is to: Enable 2FA (e.g., via the Azure Authenticator) for users when logging into IFS10 Aurena or MWO devices. Has anyone successfully configured this setup? If so, could you please share your experience and any steps or best practices to follow for enabling  SSO with 2FA?Looking forward to your insights!

Hi,what way is created new ordered environment of IFS Cloud?Is it Fresh install from actual GIT state? Or is used some previous snapshot and only last deliveries are applied in mode “Version u to date”?The main question is - are during environment creation executed CDB scripts or only CRE files? What if I need do some DML what is not possible do within *.storage file?For example, I need temporary table with “ on commit persist rows” - IFS storage file allows me create only “on commit delete rows”. What is problem, because i using it in transaction with CustomerOrder.Release, what contains commits, so my data was deleted prematurely.I solved it with storage file with comment and in CDB I used SQL DML instead of generated Database.SYS commands.But if fresh install will occured, table will be crated bad. So what is the mode of installation and what is proper way of solving this problems?

 We send customer invoice to E-Invoice portal through service provider.Then we get a unique number/QR code and the invoice layout is produced by service provider out side IFS.Then the service provide will send us back the Original Invoice pdf.Is there a way to check in a that document to customer invoice object in IFS ?

Hello all, My customer has created an invoice on the 1st of May for a customer order which has been delivered 4 months before. Each month, on the 4th the interim sales voucher is created to recognize accruals.  Since the invoice has been created on 1st of May, before the interim sales voucher creation for April, it seems the system did not include the order in the accrual for the month of April. Is that a normal system behavior?  It is written on the documentation that the IS voucher is created for a period. As the invoice was created in May, the order should have generated accruals in April from my understanding. If someone has some ideas/ views to share about it, I’d be very grateful.ThanksTanya

We're using IFS9 at the moment and are going to transfer to Cloud next year. What's the right way to use outside operations in a shoporder?And, is it meant to use the ‘Operation No’ functions under ‘materials’ to connect different Material-Lines to different operations?Or are outside-operations meant for single/mono-parts only?

When using the ‘Move Part’ functionality can you enforce the ‘Part Availability Control’ to move with the Part? You can select the slider but I want to enforce it for all movements.It happens automatically when moving a Handling unit but not for individual parts. Asking for Apps10 + Cloud

Dear all, We are facing an IFS behaviour we actually can’t deal with. We have routings with “not parallel operation” folowing each other. Some of the “not parallel operations” have “parallel operations” connected to them. If the “non parallel operation” is closed, a new scheduling of the shop order will move the non closed “parallel operations” to another “not parallel operation”, which is completely modifying the sequence of work.  Is there any way in IFS cloud to take into account the presence of a “non parallel operation” during a Shop order scheduling, even if this “not parallel operation” is closed ?

Dear All,During implementation for our client on IFS Cloud 24R2 we have observed following in MWo. Is there any setting that can control below scenario of restricting the work assignment before setting as completed in MWo.The technician if changes the date/time in the past. Say current time is 11AM IST and technician is working in this time zone. If he changes the time on mobile from automatic to manual and changes time to 8AM. The following is effect in the application.Say allocation time is 11AM to 12PM for 1 hour, if technician changes time and completes assignment. Then application will capture work assignment start and finish as 8AM and 9AM respectively against the allocation time of 11AM to 12 PM. Is there any setting to restrict this from MWo which validates the time between allocate time and start/finish time ?Thanks for your help and replies in advance.Regards,Srinivas

We have two companies, each with one site.  A couple employees are transferring from one to another, and we'd like to know if there is a "best practices" we can follow to avoid complications or mistakes along the way.  Specifically:1) Shop Floor Workbench - Can a single employee, in one of the companies but with access to both, clock in/out of operations for each company?2) Cost accounting - I believe org assignment for a given employee is the (passive) driver of directing costs to the appropriate GL.  For a single person, migrated from one company to the other, do we have to create a new Employee File for them in the new company?  Should we term the Employee File in the older company?  Or would we want to keep the old employee file active to allow logins to SFW for Company A operations?Are there any best practices guidelines for this type of use case?Thanks.

Hello everyone,Our company is planning to set up a resilient IFS Remote Cloud on AWS, and we need redundancy at every possible point of failure.MT Server: According to IFS documentation, it's recommended to have at least three nodes with a load balancer for high availability (IFS High Availability Overview). Has anyone implemented this architecture? If so, could you share your experience and any tips? Oracle Database Server: IFS supports Oracle 19c Enterprise Edition/Standard Edition 2. However, relying on a single database instance seems risky due to the potential for a single point of failure. Has anyone used Oracle Cluster or other redundancy solutions for the database? Any insights on setting up Oracle Standard Edition High Availability or Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help! 

Why is Warehouse Description not included as an available standard field in entities like InventoryPartInStock? Seems like a weird omission.

Hello,I noticed that Engineering part transfer actions do not check wether the engineering revision already exist on destination site until a first transfer is made.I’m having an issue with a customer where inventory parts & engineering part revisions have been created via data migration. However, now each time a une an existing part revision in a new engineering structure, when I transfer the top code it creates revisions for all the components … This means the setup of Product structures (issue to location, conumption type, alternatives,  ...) needs to be made every single time a component is transferred for the first time, for all the parts already in destination site. I tried to tag the transfer actions as ‘transferred’ but couldn’t reach my goal. => Has everyone encountered such an issue ? How could this be fixed ?Thank you,//Pierre
