Hi Community,Does any one know how to navigate from one cell to another vertically.Ex: Project Activity Progress needs to be manually updated. I am trying to find how can I use the keyboard to move to the cell below my cursor. Usually down arrow key takes you, but in Aurena that doesn’t work. Especially for a data entry person like (finance / AP / Accounting) this is going to be challenging without  a keyboard shortcut.Version Apps 10 Upd 15. Thanks in Advance!Malik

Hi, Scenario:We have an employee not working on a set schedule and project time reporting.Reality could look like working 10 hours on a Monday, 4 hours on a Thursday and then not working again for two weeks.   I’ve tried different schedule scenarios and Time Base, Time Registration Base, Rule Types, Parameter List, Wage Codes – you name it. No matter what I do we can’t seem to get more hours than 8 to Results (unless I change Work Hours Sum in Day-by-Day schedules) while reporting 10 hours project reporting. We want this employee to be able to report his project time without having a set schedule with already defined hours. Is that even possible? We want the project reporting hours to match the hours going to Results. If possible, what needs to be done to set this up? This Employee is not entitled to Overtime compensation. /Anna

At high level the user will login to external system select a record (customer, address) and click on link to IFS Cloud aurena page to raise a new service request. Expectation: IFS cloud ‘Create new request’ should open up with prefilled data say customer and address details.

Hello All! Has anyone ever used IFS alongside any point of sales applications such as Shopify? We are a manufacturing business but the other half of our operations are Retail/Sales based. Would be useful to hear if anyone has had a similar experience, and how they managed to get set up :) Thanks!

Hi we are looking into standard lead times automatically being added to promised dates when entering Customer Order Lines.Currently, even if the Expected Lead Time has a value, the initial Promise Date will still be sysdate. We do get an informational text stating that the suggested date should be sysdate + Lead time, but it allows the line to remain at sysdate.Based on what we read from other forum posts, it seems like this is the opposite to how standard practices work, but we are not sure why our system allows this. Why does the first promise date (during new line creation) not automatically include the Expected Lead Time?

Hi,   Is there anyway to default this (see yellow highlight) as FALSE - “Create Quotation  in Released Status” when creating a Sales Quote from a Business Opportunity? I know it’s possible to do this for Customer Orders from the CRM Basic Default Values but can’t see an option for Quotations. I always want my Sales Quotations to be created in a Planned State. Can’t see anyway on CRM Default Values or Site Settings to change this have I missed something or is this a limitation?   ThanksTom

Hello,How to check in IFS the work in progress in the previous period? Current production in progress is easy to check, as there is such a report in IFS, but for the previous period there is not.  

Hello dear IFS Community, I was wondering if there is a possibility to link a sales part to a customer. Our issue is as follows:We are creating a new part number for an existing product that will be updated. Some companies have a very long and complex process of adding our new part number to their system and will therefore keep buying the old version for a while.  Is there a way that we could sort of “phase out” the old Part number for most customers and still allow a few to order it? Our workaround would be to enter a “replacement part” in sales part and every time a customer has to order the older version we would have to manually remove and re-enter the replacement part.  Any ideas are more than welcome! Thanks :)OBS: We are on APPs10

Hello I’m getting a weird error which I can’t fix.On IFS Cloud 24r1, I added a command Execute Action on Non Conformance Report page.The action is a custom one on a custom oracle package, referenced into IFS throught metadatas.So I can pick the package / action on the NonConformanceHandling Projection. When I click on the command, I got the following error : NonConformance/Form (server error)Illegal operation.Server stack trace error(s): Client Warnings are not supported for the action [Cf_Release]. So 'X-IFS-Accept-Warnings' request header cannot be set to 'true'.Method: POSTUrl: /main/ifsapplications/projection/v1/NonConformanceHandling.svc/Cf_ReleaseResponse Code: 405 - Method Not AllowedThe InitAndEstimate action works fine, it’s also a POST call, but I can see there is no header “X-IFS-Accept-Warnings” on the InitAndEstimate call.I checked in the oracle package, we don’t use any warning, we don’t play with request headers, so I don’t understand what’s wrong.I cannot debug with db

We are experiencing an issue with IFS where customer orders are being placed on credit hold during shipment completion by the logistics department, preventing them from closing shipments. Our standard procedure is for credit limit checks to occur during order release by customer service, followed by credit team review and release if necessary.Recently, however, logistics has reported frequent instances of orders being blocked upon attempting to complete shipments. Could you please confirm if there are specific settings within the customer setup that determine when IFS performs credit limit checks and applies credit holds? Specifically, are there any settings that could trigger these checks during shipment completion?Following was set up in basic data and only credit checks at order release and not in any other points ThanksUdanee

Hi All,We have followed all the steps in BelowPose as well as the technical documentation.https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/21r2/020_installation/400_installation_options/010_data_management/030_data_migration/ However, after logging in, we are encountering a blank white screen.  Could you please advise on how to resolve this?

Hi, We discovered an issue with a RMA of an order line of a serialized part. (We work in IFS-cloud)We sold a serialized part which now has been returned and we need to dismantle into components (some of them serialized too).The RMA was received into arrival and now that we want to identify the Serials before moving it to stock, we get an error “The current position Xpart_noX, XserialX is issued.I think in this case that the RMA is connected to a CO line that has a serial delivered to it, should recognize that the serial part is being returned and not asking for a new serial or saying that the serial is not possible to return.Do you guys have an idea why would this be happening or/and a workaround to solve the issue? Thanks in advance.

Hi All,We have situation where  executive management board travels frequently and uses their credit cards for all travel-related expenses.The Travel Group, located within the Finance department, has been tasked with handling all expenses for the top managers.However, since the credit cards are set up as reimbursable, the Finance employees, who have access to some employee data, cannot see the transactions. This presents a significant problem for us.Currently, we have assigned the credit card to one employee in Finance, but this means that all expenses for top management must be handled by this individual, which is not ideal.We are looking for a solution within IFS that allows multiple employees to manage expenses and credit card transactions for others.Could someone advice how to handle this situation.

When creating a customer order that is having a Credit control group assigned to a customer with following setup(Credit check enabled at Release Order / Create picklist / Deliver Order) After creating a customer order when the user is trying to create the picklist at shipment window the order getting blocked if the credit limit is exceeded as it’s enabled to be credit checked at the pick list creation. But in a scenario of the user wants to unblock the order using Handle blocked orders and continue with the warehouse operation to arrange the shipment by creating the picklist, the system is blocking the order again as it’s stopping the order flow.  So, if the user wants to complete the picking and proceed to the shipment, The subject customer’s credit control group should be released from the whole credit check.Considering the scenario, we should have capability to create the pick list again and complete the shipment under that credit control stage and a credit check could be done at th

Hi,I have a many places with multiple products linked to each (with a product_id and modeli_id), each product_id has a fixed Product_PM coverage end date (for example 31.12.2024). This end date prevents users from creating new tasks or inspections because it it is expired or if it is earlier than the current date.Manually modifying the coverage end date automatically triggers slots and updates to the PM schedules which is fine. With Sql update query it changes the coverage end date but not triggering new slots in PM schedule.Problem: I need to update the coverage end date for 1,000 of product_id’s for 1000 places.any possible solution would be helpful.Thanks and Regards,Akshay.
