A cloud customer has a requirement in Malaysia where for customer tax, they need to include tax in the invoice, and they are liable to report (and pay) taxes to the government when the invoices are paid. so generally, a tax code with tax method tax disburse as “Payment”will do the job, but there is a specific government requirement that even though the reporting must be done after payment, if the invoice is of a foreign currency, the currency rate that must be used for tax posting must be the rate of the invoice posting date. In standard IFS, the rate used for payment based tax is the rate of the payment date Is there anyway where where we can Either use the currency rate of invoice posting date for the tax posting created from a tax code where tax method is “Payment”ORUse a tax code with tax method as “invoice entry” (so tax is posted at rate of invoice posting date) and when running the automatic tax proposal fetch only the tax transactions of the paid invoices

Handling of Advance Payments for Sales and Subcontracts are not handled by IFS in the respective modules themselves. Always I had used a workaround solution such as Mix Payments to handle advance payments. Clients expect that to be an embedded feature like Retention in Sales & Subcontracts. Could anyone propose a solution here plz? 

Hi, Just looking for some guidance on being able to connect to an OAUTH2 Integration Handler from FSM6U23.I can use Postman to successfully post to the endpoint and retrieve a token / get a successful response. However when I set up a Message Routing and add in the arguments like for like from Postman to FSM6 I am getting an error. In Postman I am adding the 4 parameters to the body.Therefore in FSM I am assuming I would need to replicate that in the XML Map.However when the Map and Routing is posted the exception I am getting is;  <run_message>System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. ---> Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReaderException: Unexpected character encountered while parsing value: <. Path '', line 0, position 0.   at Newtonsoft.Json.JsonTextReader.ParseValue()   at Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject.Load(JsonReader reader, JsonLoadSettings settings)   at Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject.Parse(String json, JsonLoadSettings settings)   at Metrix.Integration.Handlers.OA

Hi Guys,Is there any out of the box solution available to mass update the PO lines planned receipt date in one go for a specific purchase order.One purchase order usually contains the 30+ lines for different projects and parts with the same wanted receipt date on header.

24.1.5In the Settings dialog for Machine Operations Scheduling, there is a setting for Current Gantt Chart Height with the options Small, Medium, Large, and Auto.

 Hi All,When a Type Designation is connected via the General Tab of the functional object, and a Technical Class Template is also connected, the information of the technical class and attributes details are not visible on the Type Designation Tab. Instead, it only appears on the Requirements Tab. The same information appears to be duplicated across three locations: Type Designation Tab Requirements Tab Attachment Panel (as characteristics)   I’m trying to understand the functional purpose of the Type Designation Tab. Is there a specific use case or workflow where this tab is essential, or is it redundant due to the availability of the same information on the other tabs and attachment panel?Please let me know your thoughts!Thanks & Best Regards,Nipun

Our customer has installed version 24.1.5 recently (previously used version 23.1.4) . They have custom fields in the Document Revision window, and the view used for the Document Revision pages is DOC_ISSUE_REFERENCE. In the core code, IFS removed the objkey from the view, which is preventing us from publishing the custom fields in the DocIssue entity to this view. Additionally, due to the custom fields in the Document Revision window, we are unable to load the configured page.I haven’t found any solution to resolve this issue other than adding the objkey to the DOC_ISSUE_REFERENCE view as a customization. Many thanks for your inputs on this issue. Best regards,Uvini

Hi, We are implementing Cloud and our users in Argentina have reported a problem with the format of numbers.  I think it’s the default language setting for the browser, they have it set to Spanish (Argentina)the decimal symbol is a comma , number grouping is a period . Example,Enter a manual supplier invoice and on the line, enter a net amount of 25000.25 (using the period on the number pad) but the amount that populates the field when we tab to the next field is 2.500.025,25In EE the reginal settings were modified as followsDecimal = comma thousands separator = periodWhen the user enters the same amount 25000.25 the result in EE is 25.000,25 which is appropriate for their region.   In Cloud the user can only get the amount to be 25.000,25 if they type 25-period-000-comma-25.  Does anyone know how to get the format of numbers to work the same way it did in apps10? Thanks

We are working in France under the French financial system.Certain accounts cannot be automatically matched in IFS.Manual matching is done via the 'Account Matching' screen.Automatic matching is possible but only for certain accounts via the 'Accounts for Automatic Matching' screen. For automatic matching, IFS asks us for an Automatic matching attribute. In our case, the attribute is a custom field.How can we allow automatic matching with a custom field? is it possible? Thank’s in advance for your help

I’ve got the following scenario:I created a first version of a BOM in EPDM and imported this via Cadlink in IFS. Result Engineering parts (and structure) are created.I selected the parent part of the BOM to a project deliverable and selected the option copy PDM structure all levels. Result the components of the structure are created as Project Deliverable components.  So far so good.Than the BOM in EPDM is updated (new revisions of components or new components added), via Calink the changes are added to IFS and added to the engineering “structure”.Now i want to update my project deliverable to with the changes made to the parent part and underlaying parts, but with the option Copy PDM structure all levels , the full list of components is added again so of lot of components are double in the project structure.Any ideas?Kind regards,Vincent Heijmer

Hello Community,  Is there a way to update the standard cost on a shop order that has a status of “started” without closing the shop order? Scenario:Open and release shop order The standard cost is wrong so the routings or product structure gets corrected  Costs are rolled to update standard cost At this point the “Started” shop order shows the PREVIOUS standard cost If I close the shop order the standard cost updates, but if I reopen the shop order the standard cost goes back again 

Hi, Here a case regarding "weighted average" for parts in inter-site flow.We have weighted average + cost per part Inventory Part in inter-site flow.Source Site unit cost = 12.Destination Site unit cost = 10.When we ship units from source site to destination site, SHIPTRAN + INTORDTR transactions are created and immediately weighted average in destination site goes 11. Even though, the goods will be in transport for about 7 days. During those 7 days this part stored in destination site is sold/issued with the cost 11, what affects margin rates etc. So the moment of recalculation of weighted average (moment of shipment instead moment of arrival) is quite questionable.Is this intentional behavior? Or maybe some parameter exists? Regards, Lukasz
