Hi,We have similar issue with previous post regarding rounding line 100001 for External supplier invoice line. How to setup auto posting for rounding difference line created when we use PO line matching in Posting Proposal | IFS Community We do have external supplier invoice with and without PO and we want to set up posting control so when there is rounding line 100001 on external supplier invoice line, it should always create posting line with account number and code part values. How can we set up this in IFS cloud? For example which posting type and control type etc.  Thanks and regards, 

we would like to value a manufactured product made in site A (STD cost = 80EUR). We would like to have 20 EUR margin when we sell the part from the site A to site B (Ok with inter site profitability). The only thing that doesn't work is that the part is valorizated at 80 instead of 100 expected in the site B.

HI all,when using supply code “Project Deliverables” in customer order line I have the following question:In this scenario the user has to decide if the part will be reserved, picked and delivered via customer order (if needed inclusive shipment) or via Project Deliverables (PD), in combination with a shipment plan, right?So via PD the manufactured part will be produced and put on project stock, the reservation, picking and delivery will be done via customer order or if needed shipment (with order as source ref type). A shipment plan in PD does not make sense as the part cannot be picked twice obviously.The only reason I see using customer order with PD is having the object customer order at hand (for invoicing and all other functions the order is offering).BUT: would not supply code “Project Inventory” offer the same functionality? so what is the difference to supply code “Project Deliverables”?What is the actual IFS-business-process for supply code “Project Deliverables”? Thank you!/

Hi All,I'm trying to load an external customer invoice with multiple lines with record type A and the invoice are getting created without any errors. But as soon as I load them it goes to a status ‘Partly loaded’. There are no errors. So I'm wondering the reason for this?  

Hello dear Community, I’m exploring the possibility to change the OOTB Datasource function to a customized one for better performance for a specific page of IFS Cloud, namely the Dispatch Console. I have found how to set the Datasource Function using the Page Designer, but I have not yet found how to define a custom Datasource function. Could somebody point me in the right direction, please? Thank you

Hi All,I’d like to draw attention to an important gap in our current Project Deliverables process— shipment.Referring to the PD documentation, “IFS Project Deliverables consists of Design, Plan, Create Material Supply, Ship, Install and Commission, and Complete processes.” While the process flows smoothly from design through planning and material supply, it breaks down when we reach the shipment phase. The flow resumes seamlessly for installation and commissioning, but only if the shipment happens outside of Project Deliverables.Currently, we can create a shipment plan, but once we actually ship the material, we lose it. The reason is that we can only ship to the customer, and thus we don't have a "receive shipment" functionality, which disrupts the process. For EPC projects, it’s common practice to ship materials and equipment to the installation site. However, this missing functionality forces us to step outside the Project Deliverables flow, which complicates the process and is diff

Hi, We are have a Proof-Of-Concept running with IFS Cloud Remote on IFS version 24R1 on top of three ubuntu 20.04 LTS OS VM's, that is setup as a clustered solution and with NLB in front of them (so each can be disabled and taken out for a period of time) I have looked around after documentation on how to perform VM maintenance, but not found anything… I know that IFS patching and upgrading needs a dedicated maintenance window where the IFS platform is offline for the users, while the installation and reinstallation of the configuration is done. What is the recommendation on how to patching (none-IFS-applications and OS pathing) and reboots of the ubuntu VM's below the IFS platform?We would like to be able to regular VM maintenance without interfering with the pods or user access to the environment on top. Best regardsCarl-Marius

Hello everyone, We have created two users in the cloud with slightly different authorizations. For one user (with fewer permissions), we can see all resources in PSO. For the other user (with more permissions), we cannot see random resources in PSO.Both users are assigned to the same datasets, groups and permissions in PSO.Does anyone have an idea what the problem could be? Thank you,Anatasiya

HiI am trying to create an Excel Migration Job that will delete User’s Sites. I would like to use the method USER_ALLOWED_SITE_API.Remove_User_Allowed_Site. It requires only COMPANY and USERID and removes all Sites associated with the given COMPANY for the given USERID. I would like it in Excel so that we can load the specific Users and Companies we need to target.If I run this PL/SQL, it completes successfully…beginUSER_ALLOWED_SITE_API.Remove_User_Allowed_Site('USERID','COMPANY');end;I have tried various configs in the Excel Migration job and it either errors, says it has processed it (but hasn’t) or churns for a while and returns a blank.Any pointers?

Hello, I am working on a workflow to display the clients IP address on their machine where the user located. We have an API that displays the Clients IP Address but we cannot display it on the client within a workflow. We were using inline JavaScript to push this to a variable. For some reason, we were facing issues whenever we call the fetch call to our API. We keep running into an error within the IFS workflow that we cannot call the fetch functionality within the JavaScript within the workflow. Has anyone been able to find a solution to get around this? Thank you.

Hi, Looking for recommendations if any customers are using Azure Databricks to analyze data from IFS. How are you connecting to IFS and getting data from IFS?

After applying 23R2 (23.2.1) at a customer they noticed that after ordering an operational report through the order report screen and you want to go to the report archive to view the rendered report you get an error message saying that you are not granted when the report archive page is shown. Still, the report is there and you can open and preview it. I did some digging and the projection causing the error is <ReportProjection>.VirtualReport_CleanupVirtualEntity. But if you go to grant the report projection in question and try to grant the action CleanupVirtualEntity (which by the way is clearly visible in the API explorer) you can’t since there is no such action on the report projection. If you look at the OrderReportTemplate projection, there you will have the CleanupVirtualEntity action (granted that of course without effect) but the same action doesn’t show up in the actual report projections, e.g. the CustomerOrderConfRep projection grants.To me this seems like a bug in the

Hi Community,Is it possible to delete/remove records using an excel migration job? I’m trying to delete/remove users for WaDaCo processes but unfortunately i cannot solve it..
