When modifying a view in IFS Cloud development, is it possible to override and add an OR condition to the WHERE clause that originally exists in the core?In my testing, I copied the WHERE definition and added an OR condition. This resulted in duplicate code in the apv file created by code generation.Override with Cust layerAPV file created by code generationDoes anyone know of any other ways to add an OR condition by overriding?
This issue I am seeing is in IFS Cloud 24R1 both SU 10 and SU 11. We have noticed a issue with our Remaining Labor Hours and Remaining Man Hours in IFS when having Shop Order Operations running concurrently. For example, employee clocks onto Shop Order A and Shop Order B, because both are on the same machine (say a Laser or Press Brake). Each Shop Order has 20 hours per unit planned, and Lot Size of 1, so 20 hours total planned on the Operation. Employee works for a total of 10 hours for the day, clocked to both Shop Order A and Shop Order B at the same time (concurrent operations). Now, after clocking out for the day, IFS will apply 10 Machine Hours on each Shop Order Operation, so the Remaining Machine Time for each Shop Order is 10 hrs. And, for each Shop Order, it will take the employees Man Hours and divide it by two (as employee was on 2 Ops at the same time all day), so each Shop Order gets 5 Man Hours reported. But, in Report Operations, it will show the full 10 hours o
In IFS cloud, 24R2 is it possible to update this “Price” in the request msg to use CustomsValue instead?
Hello all!Our organization recently updated from Cloud version 23R1.8 to 24R2.5. With the update we have run into an issue when attempting to use the “Create Customer Order” command button on the Business Opportunity page. Specifically, if a business opportunity contains lines that span multiple sites this button used to create multiple customer orders (one for each site) but now it produces an error that states “The Site Object Does Not Exist”. We have tested this with a mixture of different sites and customers with no luck yet. It doesn’t appear to be an issue with basic data. We are working around the issue by using the “New Customer Order” command button on the line level and creating the orders separately with that method but returning to using just one command would be ideal. Any ideas what the issue may be would be greatly appreciated!
Hi All, Based on the below documentation from IFS if we implement customization during the Release update process we need to re done in the release update branch what was the IFS recommended approach for this? One of the suggestion I got from IFS create the PR for for the changes(topic branches) in older version to release update branch. If any one from IFS did this approach practically please provide the pros and cons. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Important Things to Consider Before Applying a Release Update¶It is highly recommended to minimize customizations during the release update process due to the following reasons:Available environment quota will be shared between both the build place and release update studio. So, ordering environments to test the customizations will reduce the environment quota available for release-update related steps. If customizations are done after con
Hello experts,We are working with a customer with a multicompany environment. For instance, this customer has setup Company A, Company B and Company C in IFS Cloud 24R2.Is it possible to enable company A to perform service work while Company B holds the service contract?At this point we are interested in potential approach considering we are talking about allocating a WO to Company A while the Service Contract is hold by Company B.Many thanks for you help.Miguel NB: changing the Forum
Deprecation of the FTP and Shared repository types in Docman in 23R2 - a heads-up This post is only relevant for Remote customer installations. For managed cloud customers, FTP and Shared document repositories are NOT supported. This is a heads-up on IFS deprecating support for the FTP and Shared repository types in Docman in IFS Cloud 23R2, for complete removal in 24R1.If you have customers using these two repository types today, you should plan for migrating to Database or File Storage.If you are planning to implement this in Remote Deployment in IFS Cloud right now, you should reconsider, and use File Storage or Database.In Remote deployment, File Storage will still have support for local/external storage (outside the database) by supporting SMB/network shares. BACKGROUND Back in the day, Docman started out with support for "external" file storage via our support for FTP and Shared (folders) as the only repository types. Later, Database storage was added upon request from customers.

Hi everyone,I’m currently logged in as an HR user in IFS Cloud and have noticed that I can view the documents of my manager(supervisor), who is also part of the HR department. This raises a concern, as these documents may be confidential and should ideally not be accessible to peers or subordinates within the same department.Is there a way to configure access controls so that HR users can only view Their own documents Documents of employees who report to them but not those of employees at the same level or above in the organizational hierarchy (especially within HR)?I would appreciate any guidance on how to set up this kind of access restriction, whether through permission sets, document access roles, or any other recommended configuration in IFS Cloud.Thanks you. I have attached a screenshot for your reference and all the 4 documents that can be seen in below SS related to user HJ should not be visible to logged in user MW
I imported an OpenAPI spec from IFS API Explorer into my .NET Web API project to expose the IFS APIs through Swagger UI.When I try to call the APIs from Swagger, I get a CORS error in the browser.Is there a way to enable CORS in the IFS environment so that these API calls can work from a browser? or another alternative approch to use swagger ui to call REST endpoints?
We are trying to restrict a certain document class that only users in a specific person group can upload using it. Others are set up to have view access to the document class but we only want 1 person group to be able to upload a document to this specific document class.

Aurena Configuration ContextConfiguration Context is a concept to make the configuration layer more flexible. It makes it possible to develop and provide different configuration versions of the same application object. In other words, configurations can be made and provided for different context.More: Documentation Using following SQL Script you can copy (Duplicate) Configuration contextBEGIN---- FND_MODEL_DESIGN_DATA_TABINSERT INTO fnd_model_design_data_tab (model_id, scope_id, data_id, artifact, name, line_no, layer_no, reference, visibility, dependencies, schema_version, content)SELECT model_id, '&to_scope_id', data_id, artifact, name, line_no, layer_no, reference, visibility, dependencies, schema_version, contentFROM fnd_model_design_data_tabWHERE layer_no = 90AND scope_id = '&from_scope_id';---- FND_NAVIGATOR_ENTRY_TABINSERT INTO fnd_navigator_entry_tab (entry_name, label, entry_type, entry_command, client_origin, projection, selector, filter
HiWe are looking for any guidance on a method of handling 200ish inbound and outbound articulated lorry deliveries per day across 40 loading bays fed by 80 shipment lanes. The current solution we are replacing is a custom development done on Microsoft Dynamics that we want to have a solution for with IFS Cloud. Current thinking is either IFS Dev Studio or a new front end through PHP as we have inhouse skills in that area.Has anybody built anything in this area? We would like to go for best practice so reaching out to see if anyone has extended in this area.Thanks Jay

Hello,We want to change the default value from “Move to Inventory” to “Move to transit” on the transport task line. However I am not able to do this using page designer. I have also tried to use custom event without success: Does anyone know how to do this?
Has anyone come across an issue with mixing Part and No Part lines on the same requisition? In this instance all three lines are connected to a Project; all three should be authorised by the Project Manager. The two ‘part’ lines HAVE been authorised but the no part line not yet the Buyer has seemingly been able to covert the no part line to a PO. We are now stuck with a req looking like it it ‘open’ still yet connected to a PO that is received and matched to a Supplier Invoice. If I authorise the req line I can’t convert to PO or cancel, the only thing I can do is convert to an RFQ. Is this a bug does anyone know / think?We’re on 23R1.10. ThanksLinda
Hi all,For 1 of my customers we are planning to have 2 contractors to work on "Delivery” or "Installation” Request Work Tasks. Also in combination with PSO to schedule.Basically we want 1 of them to use the MWO Service App so that work get's assigned and work will be reported via a mobile device. So what I was planning is to have 1 unnamed person and 1 bucket resource. The unnamed person should get the assignment on his mobile device while the bucket resource is not expected to accept or report work.It turns out that my example scenario doesn't work because I am getting this error message:"Person '1000' is not connected to a valid Mobile User.”I can also not set the Bucket Resource as Mobile user. Which makes sense because it is not a real person but more a capacity placeholder. But then I would atleast expect that I can sent the Work Task to the mobile of the Person Resource… I would like to be able to sent the Work Task to the Person while there is also a Bucket Resource connected. F
Hi everyone, I have a situation, where there has been registered absence in the IEE Client - this absence is then showing as expected in PSO as a Private Activity.However, when changing the status on the absence in the Client to “Cancelled”, this status change is not reflected in PSO. In the Client, is can be seen that it’s in status “Cancelled” and nothing is showing on the Time Card Absence is working as intended, but not when it is cancelled. PSO: 6.11.0.21IEE: IFS10 UPD5
I am seeking possibilities in splitting the QTY into 2 warehouse within the same site Site ABCWarehouse 1Warehouse 2Safety stock for a part is 10, hence when we run MRP the supply is created for 10 but that need be distributed 5 to warehouse 1 and 5 to warehouse 2. Is there any possibility in achieving this.
I want to add external links to the command group in IFS Cloud. But I need to add parameters to the link to filter. For example, I have a link to navigate an external web page and it requires Order No parameters from the page because I need to go to a specific order. So my link should be something like “something.com/page?$filter=OrderNo%20eq%20’S123456’” like in the element designer. I know that external links can be added from the “External Navigation Link” but i can’t give parameters from here. Is there a way to do this in IFS Cloud?
Hi All,We have recently configured IFS Cloud middle-tier high availability for our customer. However, during failover testing, we did not observe the expected results.When one of the middle-tier nodes is shut down, the entire application becomes inaccessible. We have conducted multiple tests, waiting over 15 minutes after shutting down one of the middle-tier nodes, but the outcome remains the same. The application is only accessible when all three servers are up and running.We have even tried setting the global.replica value to 3 in the ifscloud-values.yaml file, and all the pods have been replicated across the middle-tier nodes. Despite this, shutting down one node while the other two nodes are still running the entire IFS Cloud cluster, the application becomes inaccessible.I have attached a document detailing our test results for your reference.We would greatly appreciate your prompt support on this matter, as the customer is planning to go live with the High Availability cluster nex
We have one page with Order No as a VARCHAR2 value and another page with Order No as a NUMBER. Is there a way to cast NUMBER to VARCHAR2 when navigating from one page to the other (using a command)?We can navigate to the Inventory Transaction History window from the Shop Order History window's Material Transaction Tab. Is there a way to create a new command to navigate from the Inventory Transaction History window to the Shop Order History window, showing only the material transactions related to the inventory transaction ID?After navigating to Shop Order History window from Inventory Transaction History window and show only the material transaction related to the inventory transaction Id as below.Many thanks for your inputs on this issue.Best regards,Uvini
Hello! from the Online Documentation is appears that subscriptions are personal, which we`d interpret as users only see and/ or edit their own subscriptions: However, we`ve noticed that we can see all created notifications and are also able to delete other users’ subscriptions: Questions are:is that's how its supposed to work or a bug? is there some sort of setting/ CRM access / permissions that controls that?In addition, users receive this message when starting the solution (the message only appears once when logging in and clicking on the notification bell) - despite the message, users do receive the notifications as shown here: Appreciate any hints & tricks! Thank you!
