Hi, Could you please confirm whether the IFS Mobile app supports Android devices with 16KB memory page sizes?We’re reaching out due to a platform requirement: newer Android OS versions are enforcing 16KB memory page sizes. Apps not compiled with proper support for this may crash or fail to load on these devices.This is a critical concern for our environment, as users may begin to experience issues on newer Android OS versions if the app is not updated accordingly.Could you confirm if this support has already been implemented? If not, we would like to request that it be included.Thank you for your support. Regards,Aruni
We use IFS App10 UPD15. Our Middleware servers are Windows 2019 servers residing in our client’s AWS Cloud. We are configured our Development and QA servers using “SSL Proxy” since we have to go through a load balancer to our single instances. Our non-production applications are accessible using the proxy URL for the load balancer.We’re having issues with accessing our AWS production instance from Edge via the load balancer proxy URL - it says the SSL certificate for the URL is not valid.We want to view the files holding the Web Server configurations for our non-production instances so we can compare how each one is configured. We don’t know the location(s) of these config files - does anyone know their location(s) on the server?
If you use Pacejet, what did you do to substitute for the UPS End of Day Report? My understanding is that Pacejet does not have a similar End of Day report.
I am trying to email the customer invoice to the customer using PDF_REPORT_CREATED In (IFS 7.5) event action. The customer was using Esker to send the customer invoice to the customer. We are trying to replace it with the standard IFS event but I am facing issues as below: The event would not trigger for Crystal layouts. In the print manager the job get posted in 'WAITING’ status. When printing the report it hits the Report Archive but for crystal report the show pdf does not get enabled and it would not get recorded in the PDF Report archive how can I save the crystal report PDF without manually saving to email the report to the customer. Tried sending a PDF file that is stored in the PDF_ARCHIVE_TAB by writing it to the oracle directory and attaching it but it didn't work. When a value is assigned to the attach_ variable the mail would not get sent. Will anyone will be able advice how I can sort it? Awaiting for the kind response.BR,Suni
I am in the process of moving all custom events from Apps8 to Apps10. I am able to get all custom events functioning after some modification except for events which call "Error_SYS.Record_General()" When the event is triggered it displays this: https://i.ibb.co/m4Wf1vF/Error.png For instance the message above is displayed when a user changes the count in the "Count Per Inventory Part" screen but does not add a note : a note needs to be added as to why the count is being changed or else the record will not save. The Event Action is below: DECLAREBEGINIF( '&NEW:NOTE_TEXT' IS NULL) THENError_SYS.Record_General('Error','Please add a note in the "Notes" field '); END IF;END; The body and declaration of Error_SYS.Record_General is the same in Apps8 as it is in Apps10 so my code is correct. Any help with this error would be appreciate
Dears, can you advise what steps should be done in order to change accounting currency in IFS v8. Our country is shifting to EUR we need to implement such change. Thanks
Trying to convert an old APP9 work instruction to Cloud, and finding roadblocks along the way. This seems to be way more complicated than it should for such an important function. I’ve worked with other ERPs in the past which were way less complicated.Has anyone been able to get the end-to-end process working in cloud. Or does anyone have related documentation or video? I understand R&D is changing this functionality...any idea when?
Have slight problem when importing a Workflow in ACP to another environment.Created a Workflow that I deployed in cfg Added Workflow to acp that was exported Imported acp to next environment Published acp Went to the Workflow details and it seemed to be a deployed Version there (Active, see print screen below). When granting the workflow from a Permission Set the Workflow didn’t show up in the list of available Workflows. I tried to Undeploy the version but then got the message ‘Deployment for the version_5 does not exist’. To work around the whole problem I had to clone the vesrion to a new one (version_6) that I could deploy.Is this a known problem?
Hello, We are in a IFS Cloud Remote environnement and we want to secure the IFS database in Oracle .Oracle has a tool called RMAN, and can restore a database using a FLASHBACK!--scriptorstartfragment-->RUN { SET UNTIL TIME "TO_DATE('2025-09-09 14:00:00', 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS')"; FLASHBACK DATABASE TO TIME "TO_DATE('2025-09-09 14:00:00', 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS')"; ...}To be able to do this: the option (FRA – Flash Recovery Area).should be activated. But IFS official install documentation does not recommend to use FRAhttps://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/24R1/070_remote_deploy/010_installing_fresh_system/010_planning_installation/010_storage_tier_considerations/010_oracle_db_19c/#flash_recovery_area!--scriptorendfragment-->

I am attempting to configure a purchase order authorization rule, in combination with the routing template, that does not require the buyer/PO creator to authorize the PO.Can IFS be configured to by-pass the buyer if the PO is within their authorization limit or, because the buyer is listed as an authorizer with a limit, they must then authorize the PO as the first step in the routing template? Example:Buyer - Sam - Creates PO for $450Sam - Authorization limit $500Manager - Authorization limit $501-$10,000 Is there a way to bypass Sam/Buyer if purchase orders below $500?Can the authorization bypass the Buyer and go directly to the Manager if the amount is above $500 if Sam/Buyer created the PO? The goal is to remove the person creating the PO from the approval process.
Hello all, In IFS Cloud (24R2), is it possible to change the orientation of the record selector preview on items like Customer Order or Purchase Part? This was possible in IEE, but I’m not seeing any options in IFS Cloud to do the same thing. It appears to be anchored to the left side of the screen by the navigator. Any guidance would be appreciated.
Hi,We are starting the e-invoice project with Pagero now and I wonder if we have the right invoice xml format in IFS with all the tags needed if we are on IFS10 and UPD26? Do you know if there are some new needed tags added in later updates? Regards,Marika
Hi All, We are looking to get some basic data setup (Even if it’s just dummy data) in build placeWhen the environment expires we lose a lot of time setting the basic data up for testing. Does anyone have experience with setting it up so when we build a new environment it already has data. We believe this is possible but we are struggling to get the process set off. ThanksCameron
We have a case where we have forwarded the PO authorization to a person with lower Max Amount for PO. This person to is able to authorize even having that lover limit.Is it so that, if the original Authorization Step is assigned to Person A, he forwards the authorization to Person B, and Person B tries to Authorize. Then IFS checks the amount against the step in the Routing Template? That means, it still checks against Person A’s max amount and allow person B to do Authorize.
Can anyone advise what they are doing about the crystal 32-bit runtime license becoming unsupported just after dec 2025, and this is the license that is compatible within IFS APPS10. The replacement is a 64 bit run time which doesn't work.
Hi, I came across some questions in the Visual Shop Orders Planning screen in IFS Cloud. Appreciate your inputs to resolve those. Version QuestionWhy the time line is showing only a few days in the week ? Can’t scroll back and forth to see other available days.?There are only 3 operations under this WC Resource. Why this 4th line is showing when there are no operations in that. Settings of the window/Gantt Is it normal that the users have to refresh the screen after doing some changes in the Gantt, to properly reflect them ? (e.g., after a drag and drop the same operation is still showing at the previous time slot, only after a refresh it is removed from there) Is it possible to see Operations from “Interim Orders” (Interim Order Headers) in this planning screen ? Any possibility to trigger MRP or Selective MRP from this planning screen?
Have any IFS Cloud users been able to configure the system so that a Project Manager can authorise or approve an Expense Sheet ?Our current configuration has Line Manager approval and Finance authorisation, with the Project Manager only seeing the expense once it shows on the Project Transactions view. Surely the Project Manager, as the budget holder, should be able to either approve or authorise the expense before it hits the project transactions.
HiI want to move/offset a parked payment (on company) to a supplier (Generating a payment on account). So I am creating a Mixed Payment (Suplier Payment) on 0 amount linked to a supplier. Then chose/match the Parked Payment from the list. The payment is now not balanced. When trying to approve, the system does ask if I want to create a Payment on account for the Supplier. Saying Yes to that. Then I do approve the payment. But it does fail, saying: “The matched amount is bigger than the payment amount in lumb sum”. How can this be done? I believe it worked in APPS 10.
How can I enable Technician Portal in IFS Cloud? Currently the data is not present when I try to access the screens. Please share any configurations/ permission sets required.

Hello,we plan upgrade from IFS10 to IFS Cloud, is there IFS have a tool or method to help to do "health check performance report" on our IFS Cloud environment like below NetSuite screen do?
Hi IFS Community!IFS Version is Cloud 24R1 SU9We have an SFTP Reader in IFS Connect that is struggling to process files that are >100KB. We’ve been able to process files without issue smaller than that, having the files listed in Connect Reader Queue and then passed along to Application Messages where they will fail to pass the IFS business logic (which is to be expected). IFS support has suggested increasing the memory to the middletier server, increasing it from 40GB of RAM to 48GB of RAM.One thing that I’m curious about tuning wise is how to assign more memory specifically to the ifsapp-connect pod. Performing a describe on the current pod has a section that I’m thinking I would like to have increased, but am not certain how best to implement. Limits: cpu: 10 ephemeral-storage: 2G memory: 3G ← this one hereThis is certainly some “low level” tuning, but am curious if anyone here has successfully implemented a specific tuning of memory
