Hi,We’re running on IFS CLoud 24.1.4. Accounting is trying to close an old project which dates back from 2018, but are having issues due to project transactions which are not posted.  The transactions in question are shown below, they’re time entered by employees working in another company (multicompany transactions). I’ve tried the “transfer project cost accounting transactions” and “update gl vouchers” to no avail. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hello,Seeking help here.Does anyone know a way to track the Export licence connected exports and imports in the standard application. My aim is track what exports (customer order) made via a particular export licence. In the export license i have the shipped qty but not the breakdown for example customer order number would be ideal.I searched in customer order lines and purchase order lines but licence number is not available. Anyone who managed to sort this issue? Thanks,Chamath

We use Demand Planner and have Purchased (raw) materials that we forecast/sell.  I have setup the part in MS Level 1 and registered a forecast manually through the MS Level 1 Register Forecast.  I ran MS - for the part and had expected to see something in the Purchase Requisition screen.  I don’t see anything there and don’t see anything in the MS Action Proposals.  Is there something special that I need to setup for this?

Currently, we are encountering a hard stop error at shop order receipt whenever we attempt to consume a subassembly part that is associated with an open MRB into the parent shop order. The error message reads: "Component part serial 'part number/' exists in an open MRB case; receipt cannot be processed." While we are able to issue the component to the shop order, we are unable to complete the shop order receipt due to this issue.For context, the MRB pertains to a limited subset of impacted parts, not all parts of that part number. Additionally, these parts are both serial and lot-tracked, but it seems the MRB screen does not support the use of unique identifiers so it’s grouping all inventory tied to that part number. We’re currently on Apps 10 Update 20 in the IEE Client.I’m interested in learning how other members of the community are managing MRBs (Material Review Boards) for subassemblies. Any insights or best practices on how to handle this situation would be greatly appreciated.

Hello experts in the Community,I have a requirement to create an “Application for Payment (AFP)” from a ‘Sales Contract Revision’ that has 2 lines with two different “Item Sales Currency’ values (CAD and USD). Expectation is to create the AFP with CAD where USD line to come in with CAD converted equivalent values.  When attempting to create an AFP via “New AFP” dialog box IFS makes it mandatory to select a ‘Currency Code’. In following example, I selected “CAD” as the “Currency Code” as I want to create the AFP in CAD. In the resulting AFP (Application for Payment) only the line #2 and respective Item has made it across to the AFP, which had the “Item Sales Currency” set as “CAD”. Whereas Line #1 and the connected item that had “USD” as the “Item Sales Currency” has fallen off from the Application. I am not 100% if this is working as designed or I am missing a setup/configuration to get to the desired result. Thanks a bunch for your support! :) Background InformationIFS Version: IFS Cl

Hello, We are a current IFS APPS10 user. When we accept a Call Center case task that has a handover reference enable, (as soon as the task it is accepted), “New Handover Reference” assistant appears to walk the user through the process. Assumption: User accept that task when he needs to create a handover reference. This handover is mainly a customer order. So we accept the “Invoice” task to create a “Customer Order”. We are moving to IFS Cloud and I was not able to configure this in the test environment to automate handover creation. So when I accept the task, it just changes status from New to Open. Now user needs to click on the three dots, and manually select “New Handover Reference”. This is a big risk as if user forgets to open a new handover reference, that can lead to a potential revenue loss. I am wondering if I am missing a step here and am looking for a solution. I would be grateful if someone can help me with this. Thank you!

Hi,Is it acceptable to perform a CRUD operation in SQL on a virtual table from a function in the Entity or Utility package? (not PLSVC)I think it is technically possible, but I‘m wondering if there is a problem with the above implementation since it is different from the original use of virtual tables. As background to this question, we want to develop an add-on backgroundjob program that performs the same process as Register Arrivals.We’re trying to develop using a IFS standard function that is called when the “Receive” button is pressed, but before calling this function, the data must be registered in some virtual table. (CREATE_RECEIPT_CREATE_RECEIPT_VIRTUAL_VRT, etc.).Therefore, it is necessary to register data in the Virtual table in the add-on job program, which is why I asked this question.Any other solutions to this are welcome. Thank you,Akane

We are on Apps10 UPD14 using Boomi / IFS Connector for integration.We have a scenario where we are using Boomi integration to upload a file into document management from an external app.  I know who the user on the app is, and I know that users IFS user ID.My challenge is - IFS is recognizing my integration ID as the user uploading the file, and I need to set the docman access based on the application user.Example - IntegrationID is the ID Boomi is using and Joe.Smith is the user in the app.  When Joe.Smith uploads a file from the app to IFS, I need the final result in doc man to look like Joe.Smith did the upload (as if they were in IFS when they did it) and not IntegrationID.  Currently, it’s IntegrationID.

​​​​​​Hi, Has anytnig  changed in that topic? Is there  any way to force the system  to  take the tool for calculations?   If we have 1 tool that we used for manufacturing several products and we have  1 work center with several resources that this tool can be used.  How can I set the system not to schedule this product at the same time?   

On our Accounts Payables lobby screen there are 21 invoices showing errors on the final posting proposals page that have been locked in there for years and they will not clear. They are all paid posted, however they all include this error: (Apps 10 EE) We are moving to Cloud in February and have a testing space currently where they also migrated over to this environment. I had read that it could be a bug, but it wasn't the same specific error so i’m not 100% sure. If this is the case and it is a bug, will it resolve itself once we fully transition to Cloud?   

Hello IFS family, As we have a standard functionality in ‘Inventory part in stock’ screen to print barcode we want to have the same functionality on Transport task line, first of all is that feasible? I tried creating a custom menu for the same and stuck here, as in the process to trigger a barcode from a data line when we click on the custom menu a new barcode Id needs to be generated and stored in the ‘inventory_part_barcode_rep’ view as it works for the existing functionality. But I checked and this - ‘inventory_part_barcode_rep’ is in read-only state as seen below, so how do I add the data for triggering the data. Please suggest a way out of this or maybe a total new approach to meet the requirement. Thanks !!

Hi Community, If we calculate the currency revaluation for the whole year at the end of period 12 instead of monthly, is there any system issues? Would the system allow it? I had couple of testing and noticed that for Balance sheet accounts total balance is revaluating.Appreciate your support on this. Best regards,Thakshila
