Hi,Every time my customer tries to release a shop order , he gets a locked message error saying that it can’t be done, then when he tries again a few minutes later, the release works.It has been a recurring issue for all of his shops orders releases and wants to know where the issue comes from and how to prevent it? Thanks for your help. PS: I have screen shots if needed but it’s in french and I was not able to replicate the issue in the test environment.

I’ve used the Person ID of our payroll officer to grant them access to employees outside their employing company, to be able to authorize time and transfer to our payroll software. i.e. employee in Company ABC, but needs to authorize time in Company XYZ. Similar to this topic :  The user is able to view the time registration/employee in the Authorization screeen, but is receiving an error message ‘Access Denied. You cannot authorize records within Time Pers Diary logical unit’ after attempting to authorize.  Any ideas what is missing?

Hello,I am looking for help to get a clear set of instructions on how to get MWO working with IFS Cloud. I have noticed there is a lot of documentation that depends on which version you are installing. I am looking to setup the most recent on Aurena Native. Following Questions:Am I to follow the Regular Set of instructions for installing the Touch Apps Server? - IFS Touch Apps Server Installation I am having a hard time understanding how to get data to be sent between IFS Client and MWO, is there a clear set of instructions for this? I found the following Mobile work order pages:

Hello,I am trying to create an external link that will take our users to an external website. The address is https:\\inet.example.com (example was used to hide the real value). The link works in a browser such as Google.This is the screen after the link is clicked on. I have tried https:\\www.ebay.com and am able to get to the Ebay page.Does this have anything to do with the URL address not being ‘https:\\www’?Thank you i

When trying to access our Build Place, I’m being asked to confirm my MFA for my account; however I’ve changed mobile phones and have lost the entry in my Authenticator App - is there anyway I can turn off MFA / reset my account or re-populate the Authenticator app?

Substance task in IFS: Is it possible to fill and update information about substances (such as environmental properties, criteria, and equivalent factors) from an external source, like a document or a government website?Does anyone have experience adjusting the system to allow this functionality?Alternatively, is IFS currently developing such a feature in the near future? I couldn’t find anything relevant in the community. 

Hi All, I am looking for some confirmation on a question(s). Situation:For both CPO/Shipment and WO we can create ‘Pick Lists’. But it seems that - although they are both called ‘Picklists’ - they are not the same. We already notice this with the Pick List numbering which does not seem to follow in order. CO/Shipment picklist can be a high number, but the WO picklist is a low. And if you create first a WO picklist and get for example ‘5’, then a CO/Shipmennt picklist could be ‘1256’ and again a WO picklist that would be ‘6’ (following on 5). So it seems they follow different incremental values. It also shows on ‘Picked Pick List lines’, where the ‘Source Ref’ = ‘WO’ cannot be selected, there is only ‘Customer order’ / ‘Project Deliverables’ / ‘Shipment Order’ / ‘Purchase Receipt Return’. Pick by Choice only seems to work on CO/Shipment Picklists, not on WO picklist.   So questions:

Hello Community!Today I’m trying to insert some Units of Measure using Data Migration Manager. When I try to commit my changes, I see the error description “Method MODIFY failed : ORA-20122: IsoUnit.ERRUPDUSED: The field [USED_IN_APPL] is not valid for update for user defined codes.” in those UoM that are user defined.Any ideas how can I approach a solution for this? So far I tried setting the “USED_IN_APP” as “Out of Scope” in the Target Table definition but that doesn’t make any difference.

Hi Community, Is there anything that can be implemented in IFS to prevent IPAP due dates being updated when a PO is registered as arrived? When Pre-registering arrival/pre-receipt of order for P1079950, the Due date in IPAP shows as 31/12/2024 which is also reflected in the PO screen and is the correct due date, as the two images shown here The action of registering an arrival of a raw material PO is somehow adding on false additional days (date of receipt (05/11/24) minus planned arrival date (13/10/24) that is 23 days) to the IPAP due date (31/12/2024 + 23

Hi everyone,I have noted that the current behaviour of the Aurena configuration context will allow to save on the changes done in the page designer. We can change the names, hide the columns, and arrange the column order of a particular page and save to a new context and apply to users. However, if we need to do any adjustments from the column chooser, for example, if we reorder the columns in the column chooser, those changes will not save into the context, but when the user logs again, that user can see that column chooser order is saved by overring the order in the context. I hope this should be saved to somewhere in a user personal profile. Can some one technically explain how such changes in column chooser will be saved in the application?And it is possible to export them in IFSCLOUD, similar to app10 personal profiles, and reapply to other users. In the below example, I have a new context for the shop orders

A cloud customer has a requirement in Malaysia where for customer tax, they need to include tax in the invoice, and they are liable to report (and pay) taxes to the government when the invoices are paid. so generally, a tax code with tax method tax disburse as “Payment”will do the job, but there is a specific government requirement that even though the reporting must be done after payment, if the invoice is of a foreign currency, the currency rate that must be used for tax posting must be the rate of the invoice posting date. In standard IFS, the rate used for payment based tax is the rate of the payment date Is there anyway where where we can Either use the currency rate of invoice posting date for the tax posting created from a tax code where tax method is “Payment”ORUse a tax code with tax method as “invoice entry” (so tax is posted at rate of invoice posting date) and when running the automatic tax proposal fetch only the t

Handling of Advance Payments for Sales and Subcontracts are not handled by IFS in the respective modules themselves. Always I had used a workaround solution such as Mix Payments to handle advance payments. Clients expect that to be an embedded feature like Retention in Sales & Subcontracts. Could anyone propose a solution here plz? 

Hi, Just looking for some guidance on being able to connect to an OAUTH2 Integration Handler from FSM6U23.I can use Postman to successfully post to the endpoint and retrieve a token / get a successful response. However when I set up a Message Routing and add in the arguments like for like from Postman to FSM6 I am getting an error. In Postman I am adding the 4 parameters to the body.Therefore in FSM I am assuming I would need to replicate that in the XML Map.However when the Map and Routing is posted the exception I am getting is;  <run_message>System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. ---> Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReaderException: U

Hi Guys,Is there any out of the box solution available to mass update the PO lines planned receipt date in one go for a specific purchase order.One purchase order usually contains the 30+ lines for different projects and parts with the same wanted receipt date on header. Seems changing the PO header wanted delivery data wont do any changes to the existing lines. Any one found a solution for this? Client is using 23R2 Thanks,Chamath

 Hi All,When a Type Designation is connected via the General Tab of the functional object, and a Technical Class Template is also connected, the information of the technical class and attributes details are not visible on the Type Designation Tab. Instead, it only appears on the Requirements Tab. The same information appears to be duplicated across three locations: Type Designation Tab Requirements Tab Attachment Panel (as characteristics)   I’m trying to understand the functional purpose of the Type Designation Tab. Is there a specific use case or workflow where this tab is essential, or is it redundant due to the availabi

Our customer has installed version 24.1.5 recently (previously used version 23.1.4) . They have custom fields in the Document Revision window, and the view used for the Document Revision pages is DOC_ISSUE_REFERENCE. In the core code, IFS removed the objkey from the view, which is preventing us from publishing the custom fields in the DocIssue entity to this view. Additionally, due to the custom fields in the Document Revision window, we are unable to load the configured page.I haven’t found any solution to resolve this issue other than adding the objkey to the DOC_ISSUE_REFERENCE view as a customization. Many thanks for your inputs on this issue.

Hi, We are implementing Cloud and our users in Argentina have reported a problem with the format of numbers.  I think it’s the default language setting for the browser, they have it set to Spanish (Argentina)the decimal symbol is a comma , number grouping is a period . Example,Enter a manual supplier invoice and on the line, enter a net amount of 25000.25 (using the period on the number pad) but the amount that populates the field when we tab to the next field is 2.500.025,25In EE the reginal settings were modified as followsDecimal = comma thousands separator = periodWhen the user enters the same amount 25000.25 the result in EE is 25.000,25 which is appropriate for their region.   In Cloud the user can only get the amount to be 25.000,25 if
