it looks like IFS-Cloud does not provide a way to move many Serial/Service Objects at once to a new Belongs To Object (needs changing in bulk). For customers that refirm this is a lot of manual work. Every object/machine needs to be touched and clicked multiple times. what is the best way to do bulk changes? Objects → Pen menu → Edit All does not work.

Hi, I’m running into some difficulties when trying to enter a No Part Material Requisition Line on a Work Task in 25R2. I get an error when trying to save the Req Line which my Technical team have looked into and advised “In IFS Cloud Core code itself, the No Part Description has been set to exclude from the form if the header has a Work Order Number” .I’d like confirmation that a user should be able to raise a No Part Material Requisition Line on a Work Task that in turn will be connected to a No Part Purchase Requisition Line as standard and OOTB. I was surprised during testing that I couldn’t do this due to an error message and even more surprised at the technical investigation findings of this.High Level Steps I’m following:From Work Task screen create a new Material Req Line Send Type = Supplier (Supply Code will auto change to Purchase Order) Enter Quantity - 1 Enter UOM - * Select Save - (needs to be done as the No Part Description field is not visible on the screen but is vi
Hello Everybody, We have a use case similar to : Orhttps://community.ifs.com/finance%2Dfinancials%2D42/duty%2Dcharges%2Don%2Dimports%2D5085 We are currently unsure how to proceed. For example, in Italy or Spain, there is a plastic tax that is calculated based on specific criteria related to the product. Our suppliers will include this plastic tax as an additional charge on their invoices. When creating the purchase order, however, the exact tax amount is not yet known. Therefore, we assume that we would need to create a purchase charge on the purchase order line with an initial amount of zero. The issue arises when the supplier invoice is received: the invoice total will be higher than the purchase order amount because of the plastic tax.Consequently, when matching the supplier invoice against the purchase order receipt, the amounts will not match exactly. Could you please confirm whether there are any new functionalities in IFS Cloud 25R2 or 26 that would allow us to automatically app
A. What is your idea?1) ClassificationOpportunity for improvement2) Brief descriptionFor MT940-based ExtMixedPayment bank statement imports, the standard MT940 processing logic derives Message Code values from predefined MT940 parsing rules and overrides values configured through External File Template Detail Functions. This works for supported MT940 variants, but many banks provide MT940 files with bank-specific transaction codes and structures that are not recognized by the standard parsing logic.As a result, customers using bank-specific MT940 formats have no supported mechanism to read and utilize transaction codes such as FTRF and other bank-defined values for transaction classification purposes. When these codes cannot be retrieved and mapped, imported transactions default to Direct Cash Transactions and cannot be automatically classified into Supplier Payments, Customer Payments, Transfers, or other transaction types.The missing capability creates a gap for organizations process
Hi, Trying to use diluted labor rate for project time transactions. As per my understanding the system is supposed to adjust the internal labour rate according to overtime reported. Reading the IFS documentation is appears incomplete, or might be subject for bugs in 25r2 or 26r1. Cause I certainly can not make it work. Anyone in the community done this? Looking for the requirements, prerequisites and last how it’s triggered and where the adjustments can see on what stage in the time filing process.. Any input is of high value! Thx & rgds, Eirik Horjen
Hi - can someone please tell me the steps of what to raise a No Part Material Req Line from a Work Task? I’m struggling to create a No-Part Line with Supply Code Purchase Order on the Material tab on a Work Task in IFS 25R2.

Hi, I’m coming to you because I would like to upgrade an unfinished release update branch 25R2SU2 to 26R1SU2. A delivery 25R2SU2 was created and applicated on a use place environment.The master branch is actually on 25R1SU8 and I don’t want to modify it.On build studio I ran an impact analysis and now I would like to request the release update, but this command/button isn’t visible on my portal.Is this because my release update environment hasn't been finalized, a permissions issue, or some other reason ? Do you think I should delete my unfinished branch release update and begin a new with 26R1 ?I follow this documentation https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/ale/020_lifecycle/080_release_update_studio/020_request_release_update/010_create_sales_quotation/ but I’m actually limit.If you have a solution, I'll take it!
We are producing Product A (Produced Part) using Product B (Component) at a 1 to 1 ratio.We over-produced Product A by qty 10.We want to “disassemble” product A. What is the best process to follow so:Product A (Produced Part) inventory reduces by 10 Product B (Component Part) inventory increases by 10We have used just the Unreceive functionality but it causes financial issues with the component part.
Hello, I have a situation that has me baffled. If I create a project invoice from an invoice plan, a value shows up in the Preliminary Revenue column. But, if I create one from an AFP, the value does NOT show in the Preliminary Revenue column. Are the AFP posting types still in play in this scenario? Any help is appreciated.Thank you Patrick

Hello, I would like to know if there is a screen like on APPS10 that allows you to see the total number of licenses on an IFS Cloud environment?I know there is the "License metrics" screen on Cloud, but I can't find the information on this screen.Thanks in advance.
Currently the soft overtakes using $SEARCH and $REPLACE is only supported in the PLSQL, PLSVC and VIEWs files.Modifying client/projection core logic therefore requires full overtake even though it can be done using a simple search and replace.In my opinion, this should be available for client, projection and fragments so developers could minimize big overtakes.Creating this as a conversation before submitting as an idea to get other developer opinion since for us, this has beginning to become a problem and we want to avoid customizations with overtakes to maintain evergreen as much as possible.I’m glad to hear others’ opinion on this and the experience so far with cloud developments. Welcome any thoughts on how we can prevent big overtakes Cheers!Damith

In Applications 10, we use the Solution Manager to create users (Solution Manager/Security/Users/Create User)This offers a nice and neat option with all types accesses visible in one page (Permission sets, companies and sites, business roles for all our modules, e.g. Buyer setup, posting authorization etc.). The Summary tab is an excellent place to verify the result of the user setup. It is easy to verify and amend access, e.g. adding a site and purchase authorization basic data for that user and the new site. If applicable, I can duplicate the setup of a user as the basis for new user and then quickly fix In Cloud, the user creation is just quite painful.(Solution Manager/Users/User)You can only do a very small portion in the User creation page, and it only contains company - not the sites. It seems you have to go module by module to add basic data (much like it was back in IFS Applications 98!). You lack the overview, seems you may have to build a quick report to extract the data int
On the Document Defaults per Object page, in the documentation for the page, I was trying to follow an example given to set up a Default Document Class on a specific page (ManSuppInvoice) based on a specific Document Class and the Users default company. (INVOICES_#COMPANY#) The field for the Doc Class is a drop down menu and I can only select Doc Classes, i cannot manually enter any document classes. I tried the same thing in Apps 10 and I can manually enter the entire INVOICE_#COMPANY# in the Document Class field. Is this a bug or is there a way to update the Document Defaults per Object page to allow a manual entry for the Doc Class?
Are there any specific steps to follow when using fixed assets object in business reporter to fetch values?
Is there a ‘boxed’ product to support the integration of IFS with TQL?
Hello. When we financially complete a project, costs are being booked to the original expense accounts instead of COGS. This is causing an account mismatch against the reversal of revenue recognition, which is booking to COGS. For example, assume account 7000 is supplies and account 5000 is COGS. If we purchased supplies worth $10 and tagged it to a project, then that $10 initially hits account 7000 then eventually hits WIP. Then when revenue recognition is run, it hits account 5000 COGS. The following period, the rev rec reverses and it hits WIP And COGS. But when the project is financially completed, the posting hits WIP and account 7000 instead of COGS. So there would be a credit in account 5000 but a debit in account 7000, so there is a mismatch. Is there a way to route cost postings from financial project completion to COGS instead of the original expense account? I would appreciate any thoughts or suggestions.
Hello, Using Apps for Page Designer, I configured a field as Required to ensure users do not overlook it when entering time through the MWO Service App. However, this change does not appear to be reflected in the MWO Service App, as users are still able to save their entries without completing the field.Could you please advise if I am missing any additional configuration or step required for this change to take effect in the MWO Service App?IFS version 25R2Thank you,Wafaa
I have a question about *_PASSWORD = CREATE_RANDOM_PASSWORD in the define.tem file for IFS Cloud.Could you let me know the following?Is the password generated by CREATE_RANDOM_PASSWORD stored anywhere?If yes, where can I find it?Is it possible to view the generated password in plain text after deployment?If not, what is the supported way to reset it?Is there any official documentation that explains this behavior?Also, the public documentation for define.tem looks a bit different from the actual define.tem file in our environment.For example, our file includes variables like CAMUNDA_APPOWNER, IAM_APPOWNER, DBADMPROXY_OWNER, and RAISE_NEW_CUSTOM_OBJ_INVALIDS.If there is an updated official reference for define.tem that includes these variables, could you please share it?Reference:https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/26r1/070_remote_deploy/010_installing_fresh_system/200_installing_ifs_cloud/050_deploy_db/090_db_deploy_config/?h=define.tem#configuration_without_parameters
