Hi, I want to send a data file from IFS Cloud to a Google Cloud Service Bucket using their REST endpoint. The google rest endpoint is authenticated via the OAuth 2.0 JWT mechanism, where the client has to create a signature using the given private key and send it to Google for authorization of the request. In IFS Cloud routing addresses, only REST Client ID & Client Secret Authentication (Basic Authentication) is supported, not JWT. Is there another way to authenticate using JWT in IFS Cloud? Best Regards,Charitha

HI,We have several customers which are in purchasing organisations.Until 2025 the invoice was sent to the purchasing organisation via EDI.And the very same invoice was printed and sent to the customer by mail. We wondered whether it is possible to send the invoice via EDI to the purchasing organisation and additionally via einvoice to the customer? Is there a way to use both message classes at the same time? BR,Alex

Hi,After upgrading our environment from version 23R2 to 24R2, we can no longer see scheduling under the service and cannot navigate to PSO. Do I need to make any changes to the permission set?

HiWhen I use Calculate Master Schedule Level 1 with a specified part number, it successfully creates a Distribution Order.However, when scheduling it without a part number, it should automatically consider part numbers based on the site, but no Distribution Order is created.How can we resolve this? Please explain about calculate master schedule level1.

Hi.  We are currently running IFS Cloud 23R1 in the Gov Cloud. My understanding based on release notes is that Constraint Based Scheduling (CBS) / Advanced Planning Board (APB) functionality will eventually be deprecated, to be replaced with Manufacturing Scheduling and Optimization (MSO) functionality.   We recently upgraded to 23R1, but the MSO functionality is not available, presumably because it is licensed separately.  We have security configured to secure ITAR data at the site level, so we have set up a regular non-ITAR site and an ITAR site for such locations.  These locations have work centers that are used for both ITAR and non-ITAR work, so separate work centers are set up in each site for the same physical work centers.  This results in a lot of manual work to maintain the schedules and capacity, so we are looking into a possible customization to have work center capacity / scheduling automatically updated for these work centers - so that when a shop order o

Hello everybody,I got the following error message while processing a background job: This background job was set to state Error because the executing Oracle process was killed.

We are seeking a solution to the creation of material purchase requisitions directly from the Shop Order Materials tab within the IFS Application. This essential functionality is currently Not Available is the IFS Application, At present, users are required to manually input material requirements through the Purchase Requisition screen, which can be time-consuming.  and the function of “MRP” is available, however there is a connection between the “demands” and “supply” so a user cannot identify if his required materials have been ordered or not.Can we do it functionally or configuration?By adding the material purchase requisition creation process to the Shop Order Materials tab, the requisition would be linked to the shop order making it user-friendly and have accurate tracking of purchases to shop order. This will help to streamline operations, enhance accuracy, and ultimately improve productivity.Thanks

Hi, In designing lobbies in IFS Cloud we could use variable substitutions such as ‘#START_OF_THIS_WEEK#’. I encountered an issue when we use these variables in WHERE conditions with - (days). e.g.  if we have a criteria to take the date before the start of the week, I would think that this would work. ‘#START_OF_THIS_WEEK#’ -1 but we ended up here with the following error. but, if we use the database method to retrieve the same value here. it works fine.  Am I doing something wrong with the use of these substitution variables? or is this a bug? If we use the variables alone they works fine.  

Is there any way in which you can trace which purchase order lines have been raised against specific material requisitions?  I can trace a purchase order line back to the purchase requisition but there doesn’t seem to be a link back to the demand source of that purchase requisition.

Hi, I’m trying to set up use of Employee Cards to register employee attendance clockings in IFS 10 IEE via Time Clock. As an example, I’ve set up the employee/person with the Card No. below, and set up the card parameters to match (I think): The time clock detail for the button is set to Card Driven Execution, but when I attempt to scan a barcode (with characters 0000001590) using a barcode reader after clicking “In”, nothing changes and the terminal still reads “Clock In: Swipe the Card.” However, if I use a standalone time clock client, I get an error saying “Employee    not a time clock user.” Scanning the barcode into a text document or other fields in IFS gives the expected result (0000001590).

Hello,I’m having trouble with the IFS Document Management Add-in for MS Office.  If I go from an email the system opens the Create Document from Microsoft Office dialog and list the correct file name but the system will not enable the finish button.If I try from word, the system flashes up a quick dialog that says it Launching IFS Arena, then nothing.I’ve tried on 3 URLs and no luck.  I get the Create Document from Microsoft Office to show up for the .msg type file from Outlook but no Finish button.  And for word document, nothing except a quick flash of a dialog.Can anyone give me any clues?

Hello Community!I’m trying to create a schedule and rule which includes a 50 hr weekly limit after which ALL time is converted to DT (double time).  The problem I’m having - the conversion order.  The requirement is to convert (reduce) OT time first, then reduce Normal time.  IFS is taking from Normal time first - I need the opposite.  The Conversion Default Check box doesn’t seem to change the order of conversion.  Any experience out there?  Schedule:5Dx8H MTWTFBalance Definition:

Hi, We have a need to use an Excel Migration job to create multiple quote lines within a Sales Quotation, some of our quotes run to around 600 lines long. Meaning that manual keying in is particularly cumbersome and not very productive. Therefore, an Excel migration job was setup to look to see if we could speed this process up significantly. However, we’ve hit an issue whereby the Unit Of Measure is a mandatory field within the migration job, but we wouldn’t always know off hand what that value was. Again this would mean having to look up potentially hundreds of parts whilst keying the lines in, is there a way to force IFS to do this lookup for the unit of measure when executing the job?We’re currenlty on IFS Cloud 23R1 Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated!Thanks

Hi Does anyone have a better explanation for the C Query flag then the one IFS gives in the documentation? https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/22r1/050_reporting/256_br_and_a/005_adhoc_reporting/010_quickreports/#query_flags_and_default_values_for_sql_statement_type 

Hi All,This is a IFS Cloud and Aurena Issue.I have a question about how to allow user to enter a value that does not exist in the reference in case of dynamic generated LOV-s.As a reminder, in the case of standard value lists (based on an explicitly specified data source) this is possible by using the "freeinput" parameter:*.projection file:reference CustomerNoRef(Company, CustomerNo) to CustOrdCust6(Company, CustomerNo) {*.client file:lov CustomerNoRef with CustomerSelector using Customers {     freeinput = [true]  }  In the case of dynamic LOV, the field structure is different and for this list of values, the "freeinput" parameter is not available in the client file:*.projection file:   reference ControlTypeValueRef(ControlTypeValue) dynamic(ControlType) parent(Company);*.client file:   field ControlTypeValueRef {      label = "${parent.ControlTypeName}";      editable = [ControlTyp

Hello,Maybe someone could consult me in permissions stets issue how to switch off the presentation objects in IFS Cloud.I know that there is presentation objects context in IFS Cloud, but then how to deal with the issue described below?For example, for the user role „TEST_1“ we granted the projection „SupplierAgreementHandling“, but do not want to allow execution of the function „Create Request for Quotation“ for that user role: So we didn‘t grant the projection „CreateRequestForOrderQuotationHandling“: In „Managing grants by Commands“ we also see that Request for quotation in not granted:
