In Apps 10 IEE a user can select multiple Material Transfer Requisition Lines and the Release command is available to process them all of them at once.  In Cloud 23R2 we are finding that with one selected, the Release command is available.  However if the user selects multiple lines, the Release command goes away.  We made sure the lines selected are all in Planned status which is a pre-req to be able to release.  Is this by design, or is this a bug?Thanks!

Hello, We are facing a huge issue, in our test and config environments, we cannot inspect workflows anymore, even if they only have a simple projection call in it. When inspecting, we just get the “loading” popup that never goes away. This is on 23R1 and so far, it seems like no one else has been experiencing this other than us. What could be causing this? We’ve refreshed the caches in hopes of resolving this issue but so far nothing has been working. Any and all insight would be very much appreciated. Thanks,Bryan

Is there a way to set the export control on a part so that a license is required, but only if the customer/enduser is in a certain country?  All other countries do not require a license for export. 

In any version, is it possible to determine if a shop order was the result of a comprehensive shop order split?

Hi,In a scenario where PSO is offering a slot initially and after job is allocated to a resource, for some reason after some time PSO is unallocating the job. Please help me to understand if PSO is unallocating the job later why it would offer a slot at first go and what might be the reason to make the job unallocated at later stage Thanks in advance,Lavanya Bandaru 

We have a request from The Business to automate matching of invoices for Customer Checks  - to match against the oldest ones first, or if it matches a months invoices (as the oldest one is in query) as a proposal before the payment is posted against the invoices.I can see many functional issues with this - but at the moment I’m tasked with looking into the technical feasibility. I almost posted as an new user for this question.I can see nothing in standard functionally - has anyone developed anything custom or been down this route before. Thanks,Matt

Hi,I am developing an integration where the service user connected to and IAM client needs access to all projects in IFS Cloud, restricted or not. Don’t know the project module in IFS Cloud that well but is there another way of granting access, other than the below steps?Creating an employee connected to the service user Adding that employee to a Team Adding all projects in access definition of that Team Setup an event action/workflow that adds access for every future project created I’m using standard projections. 

Hi all,Is it possible to set up a message in the notification bar triggered by specific actions for notifying personnel when they get tasks assigned in the HSEQ module? Since the customer finds emails ineffective. This doesn’t have to be limited to HSEQ; it’s fine if it applies to other modules as well in App10. Example:When a user is marked as responsible role and the next to act in the process flow, they must perform their task for the flow to proceed. To ensure this, the system should display a message or notification to the user upon login, such as:“You are the next to act on NCR 7345”.Thank You!Best Regards,Oshani

Hi!Anyone know how to use this Hidden checkbox on Inventory Locations.Every time i try to press the button nothing happends with the checkbox.i dont see any RMB either to set the location to “Hidden” the help text says:If this check box is selected, it indicates that the specified location has been set as hidden and therefore will not be displayed in the warehouse navigator. This is usually done for locations that are considered obsolete.​​​​​​​

I want to add Object Class Description to this list. How can  I do that?

After project transactions are created, can we update the internal price without manually editing the project transactions? I need to update the standard cost of employees at the end of the month.

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
