Hi,Perhaps someone can help me with the following scenario (on a productive environment):Initial situation:-The "Create Forecast" job has already been executed for the current period The user creates a new forecast part AND defines a predecessor and sets the "Inheritance" parameter to "YES"→ The forecast is now to be calculated for the new partProblem:In Application 9, the user executed the "Create Forecast" job again to obtain a forecast for the new part Since Application 10, the "Create Forecast " job can only be run once per period (IFS error message: "The period has already been aggregated. Create Forecast can only be run once per period")Question:→ How can a forecast be calculated for the new forecast part based on the previous one?→ The calculation should be be executed immediately, i.e. without having to wait for the start of the next period.

Hi Everyone,We are currently upgrading from IFS Apps 8 to IFS Cloud 25R2. In Apps 8 we have a Save Search feature that uses complex SQL logic with runtime substitution variables, correlated subqueries and API calls directly embedded in the search query.Below is the code snippet of the save search in apps 8.add_months(end_date, &AO.course_cfp.get_cf$_validity_length_m ( &AO.course_cfp.get_objkey(course_id))) BETWEEN TRUNC(sysdate) AND nvl(to_date('&End_Date','dd/mm/yyyy') + 1 - 1/24/60/60,add_months(sysdate, 12)) AND UPPER(course_id) like nvl(UPPER('&Course_ID'),'%') AND end_date = ( SELECT MAX(end_date) FROM &AO.emp_training_history e WHERE &AO.emp_training_history_ov.company_id = e.company_id AND &AO.emp_training_history_ov.emp_no = e.emp_no AND &AO.emp_training_history_ov.course_id = e.course_id ) AND &AO.course_api.get_valid_to(course_id)

Hi everyone,have you ever encountered a scenario where a mobile warehouse (a physical van/truck), managed in IFS as a Remote Warehouse, is temporarily moved from one site to another? How did you manage that situation?In my case, I have:one company two sites two central warehouses (one per site) multiple vans, each modeled in IFS as Remote Warehouses (mobile stock physically on trucks)Service requests are opened for specific service organizations, which procure materials from a given site. However, vans may move between sites.This creates an issue:the demand on the task is linked to Site A, but the van (i.e. the mobile/remote warehouse physically carrying the stock) is currently operating under Site B.In addition, the technician is driving the van and executes the work using the IFS mobile app, consuming materials directly from the VAN (Remote Warehouse).This raises two key questions:how should material reservation be managed in this cross-site scenario? how should execution/consumption

Hi, I have a requirement where Work Tasks should be Bundled together for ease of Scheduling but still require the ability to flexibly change the status of the Bundled Work Tasks individually - is this possible using MWO in 25R2? See example below. Bundle Task 1Work Task 1 Work Task 2 Bundle Task 1 is then assigned to a Technician and executed on MWO. Question - can the technician update the status of Work Task 2 to something like Incomplete and marking Work Task 1 and Bundle Task 1 as Work Done? ThanksTom
Hi,What is the best way to keep the Material Line visible in the MWO app while disabling all edit-related actions such as Issue, Un-Issue, Edit, and Delete?I have already tried removing the relevant options from the workflow configuration, but these actions are still visible in the application.Could you advise if there is another configuration, permission set, or projection setting that controls the visibility of these options or can this be a bug? Cloud version - 25.2.4 /Indika

Hi Guys, I need help on getting this up and running - I have my first problem as the routing of the application message - getting an error. The text of the message intended to send to the credit card interface below in the xml. Is there information on how this can be setup in IFS Cloud. What did you use during testing for the Routing Address and Routing Rule to test with the Paypal Test Account? Test Steps:Create Customer Order for Client set to Credit Card PaymentFor a manual authorization the following error is displayed - “Field [TRANS_DATE] is mandatory for Credit Card Transactions and requires a value.”The Release of the Customer Order should trigger the Credit Card approval - but returns the error [“APPLICATION_MESSAGE” doesn’t match any routing rule]. Your help on this would be appreciated. We do not have IFS Help Screen information related to the added module. Thx
Hi everyone,I'm looking for some insight on Calculation Formulas in HR and Payroll. A few questions:Does the Calculation Formulas feature work in HR modules other than Time & Attendance and Payroll? If so, how can it be used in those modules? And does anyone have examples to share? How do the Calculation results affect in HR process flow? Does anyone have real examples of using these features in IFS Cloud?Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
We are trying to setup SSO through Azure Entra. When the user click the new login button he’s promted to Azure for login details, so far so good. After a successfull login through Azure (which also is clear from the Azure logs) the user is however faced with: In IFS the Login Event Details I find entries such as : The IAM provider is setup with Syncmode Force. In Azure the following APIs are granted to the application: There’s no IdP attribute mappers for this IdP. In Azure the users email and upn is the same as the directory_id in IFS.What could possibly be incorrectly configured?
The available documentation does not provide step‑by‑step instructions for editing a Case's time stamp or changing the case owner after a case has been reopened in error. How can this be accomplished? In Shop Floor Clockings you can correct this data for manufacturing reporting. Is there a similar area for Cases?

Hi all,When we create a Custom Field for the mobile app (MWO - ServiceEngApp), there are following 3 steps included.Creating the custom attribute in Entity Configuration. (Solution Manager> Configuration> Entity Configurations> Entity Configuration) Adding the custom attribute in Mobile App Entity. (Solution Manager> Mobile Apps> Configuration> Entity Details) Adding the custom attribute in the mobile app’s page. (Solution Manager> Mobile Apps> Configuration> Apps for Page Designer)Out of these 3, only #1 can be included in an Application Configuration Package (ACP). Therefore, what is the best way to handle migration/ deployment of the other 2 items across different environments, without manually creating them again? Any insight on how you have managed this is highly appreciated! Thanks,Dulshan.
We are using a couple of lobbies in IFS Cloud for KPI measuring.Is there a good way to monitor these lobbies on big screens out in production? Is there a tool in IFS that can export a printout of the lobby, or is there some way for other application to read Lobby elements?
Hi,We have strange situation in apps 10 with manufactured parts. FIFO is valuation method for all kind of parts.Despite identical material (bacflush costs) and labor costs being recorded across the period, inventory receipts from the same shop order (SO 325985) are reflecting progressively higher unit costs. Material issues and operation reports are auto-backflushed at receipt creation Multiple receipts from SO 325985 exhibit incrementally escalating unit costs (ranging from 0.1501 to 1.0610 per unit) Material composition and labor standards remain consistent across all receipts within the period (12–13 March 2025)Any thoughts how to investigate this issue?
