Hi All,I am aware that from version 24R1 onwards, IFS Cloud (Remote Deployed) customers are limited to using only Database and File storage.I have a defence customer hosted on-premises in the UK. They have operations in both the UK and Australia, and due to legal requirements, they must store documents in external storage within their respective countries, not in the database or cloud.Is there any limitation whereby remote deployed customers are restricted to use one File storage location?If so, how can IFS address these legal requirements given that only File storage and Database options are available moving forward?Thanks,Chamath

Hi All,As mentioned in several community posts, IFS is phasing out the shared document repository type with the introduction of support for file storage across multiple locations.According to the IFS documentation, although shared repositories are being deprecated, it is still possible to enable them manually. Customers may continue to use this functionality until IFS releases full support for multiple file storage locations.I would like to inquire whether any other customers or partners have manually enabled shared repositories and are currently utilizing this setup. Any insights or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,Chamath

Hi All, I created a custom view based on the  ‘JtTaskPlanning' entity using Query Designer.  My requirement is to create a new list based on this custom view and display it in the MWO Application.To achieve this, I added the custom view to the 'ServiceEngApp' mobile projection through the projection configuration page.However, I’m encountering an issue when trying to add a sync policy to this custom view.  I am getting the below error.Projection Configuration - Adding Sync Policy  According to the technical documentation, sync policies can be added to a custom entities. Similarly, is it not possible to add a sync policy to custom views as well? I am using IFS Cloud 24R2 environment. Please anyone guide me on this. Thanks in Advance! Sandya S

Hi Community, I have created a new custom page through developer studio on IFS cloud 24R1 (and tested on 25R1 without luck). This page contains 5 LoV fields. They are all created as references to other entities.When I create a new record on the page, all the values save successfully against all 5 LoVs. My problem comes when I edit the record. Only 4 out of the 5 LoV’s are saving values. If I simply select on the one LoV that is not working I do not get the save button appear. Debugging shows me the dirty flag is not being set when I edit this field although all other values in the debug show as changed.I have compared the definition of all 5 LoV’s and they all appear to be set up identically. I can't see any difference in the LoV that is not working.Has anybody seen this before?  ThanksNathan

Hi Community,I have a case with an adjustment journal entry in a Group consolidation, that when we consolidate the balance this entry appears in a different period.For example:This adjustment journal entry was made in the period 2025-03 Debit amount: 10.832.321,69And then appears in the consolidation balances in the period 2025-06.I have checked the setup and it’s OK. Only happen with 2 report entities, we have 18 in total. Any idea what it could be?Regards, 

A quick functional question related to DOP which I encountered with one of the customers. Questions: In APP9 DOP orders have the non-consumed items with the quantities. More specifically, unlike in APP8, when we bring in DOP structures in APP9, the structures come in with quantity for all non-consumed components. Like your advice and view point on this regards.

Community, Where could we download the list of users and his/her granted permission set? Thank you.Ron

Hi All, I am facing an issue with updating a field in a table automatically using a Asynchronous BPA workflow in IFS Cloud 24R2 Environment. For Example, I have created the Asynchronous BPA Workflow  to update the ‘Description’ field in the JtTask Entity. And I triggered this workflow using the custom event. I am currently working in the Request Work Task Screen under Service Management. IFS API  Update   While Troubleshooting the workflow, got the following error.   The issue doesn’t occur every time. Sometimes the error appears, and sometimes the workflow runs successfully and updates the field without any error.  If there was a problem with the  workflow logic, the error should come up every time. But I am not sure why the behavior is inconsistent.Note: I am using the Asynchronous workflow type because this workflow will be triggered from the IFS MWO application. Please somebody guide me on this. How to resolve this issue.  Thanks in Advance! Sandya S.

We have a supplier set up to be a self-billing account and when we receive product at our various sites, we are seeing the “AS” self-billing invoices processed and in our supplier analysis to be posted.  However, we have recently added a new Site to our IFS system, and even though we are using the same supplier, the receipts done in this new Site are not being processed as a self-billing invoice.  Is there another setting that we are missing or something else that has to be run that is Site specific?

Hello , I am correct that IFS doesn't support automatic posting of small difference when matching debet and credit transactions (based on tolerance amount settings? Please see my example below. I have one cent difference and i would be convenient if you could add a new line for the difference or with a right mouse button post the difference of one 1cent automatically to a P&L account.  From my point of view this should be basic functionality but i can't really find it. Thank you for suggestions in advance. We are using apps10, but maybe this is available in IFS cloud? Kind regardsLarsExample: you dont't want to make additonal voucher entry to balance this. That would be time consuming job. Preferably you want to write off directly to specifc gl account for small differences. 

Hello, I have begun using Serial tracking for parts in IFS Apps 10. However, I have noticed an issue with Shop Order analysis. It appears that if you define 100% checking on a Control Plan, it will require that each Serialized part is accounted for on EACH Shop Order Analysis. This becomes a significant issue if you report parts and generate another analysis. As an example, if you have a SO with a Lot Size of five and you reserve your serial numbers on the Shop Order. You then generate an analysis, and select all five serial numbers, you will have to perform checks for all of them. There is no way around this, you cannot cancel incomplete lines and finish the Analysis. I have tested reporting 3 pieces of the lot and creating another analysis. However, the results are the same, the system is looking for 5 serial numbers still, even though 3 have already been assigned to the reported pieces. I'm not understanding the intended functionality, it seems to create a lot of issues. My only sol

Does anyone know how to create a PL/SQL package to export financial data in the SIE4 format?

Hi All, I’ve created a Task Planning page in the MWO Application using Page Designer. On that page, I added a new list called "Task Planning List" based on the ‘JtTaskPlanning’ entity. The list is displaying correctly in the MWO Application.But my issue is, not all the fields I included in list are visible, only a few specific ones are showing.I tried adding the desired fields to the Field Ranking, but that didn’t resolve the issue. The desired fields still do not appear in the application. Task Planning List Configuration  List in MWO Application  How does the MWO Application decide which fields to display in the list? Isn’t it supposed to follow the Field Ranking configured using Page Designer? And, are there any limitations on the number of fields that can be displayed in a list in the MWO?  Currently, its only displaying 4 fields in the list in MWO. Note: I am using IFS Cloud 24R1 Environment. Please anyone guide me on this. Thanks in Advance. Sandya S 

Hello,We are running into an issue where an employee is not showing up in Time Registration before a certain date. Their start date is about a month and a half before that date, and they have valid job assignments from their start date, but they “don’t exist” in time registration between their start date and about a month and a half afterwards. Has anyone else encountered this and know how to fix it?Thanks!

Hi all,After upgrading from IFS Cloud 23R2 to 24R2 we realized that the component usage factor in the configuration structure is now validated to be between 0% and 100%. This causes issues on the user experience because they will no longer be able to save modifications on structure lines with component usage factors > 100. We have several components which currently have a factor > 100%, e.g. for custom cable lengths which can be configured and the base length of 1 meter will be multiplied by the configured value. If the average desired length is for example 5 meters, the component usage factor would be 500% to calculate the correct demands for the components based on the planned quantities from master scheduling.Does anyone know what the idea behind the limitation between 0 and 100% is? We could just deactivate the validation on the clients and as a quick fix, but are afraid, that there are any consequential errors because of this change.Thanks
