We are attempting to use the Prototype Shop Order to create first run sample parts. As noted, a Prototype Shop Order does not use a buildable structure or routing, so while we do have structures and routings identified, they are in a Tentative status. We use standard costing for our manufacturing parts, however, with the tentative structures and routings, no cost can be calculated. Our parts are set up as Zero Cost Forbidden. We processed various shop orders under the prototype shop order and on our inventory transactions page, there was an inventory value given to the parts. I have looked at the shop order details, etc., and I am just not sure how an inventory value was calculated. It did not use actual or estimated, and it did produce an unfavorable variance. Please help me understand how an inventory cost was calculated.

Steps per user:step one create configuration in sales order step two create interim order step three Add a part to interim order and save step four Release sales order step five Access shop order and view the material tab
We have turnkey finished good items that are MS items with MS Demand since they are directly forecasted. The issue is when these items are purchased, they do not get action messages like MRP items do - MRP Action Proposals.For example - we will order the MS item based off demand. When the demand changes and the delivery date may need to be advanced, pushed out or if there is no more demand it would need to be canceled, we do not see these messages.We see Early Order, Late Order or Remove order in MRP Action Proposals and would like to see the same messages for MS items. Maybe there is a different way to set up these items so they are not MS and we can forecast them and see the MRP Action Proposals? We are in IFS Cloud

Good Morning, We are in the early stages of our IFS Cloud Upgrade. I am having issues where 2 users can log into IFS Cloud Web Version with their user name and password.When they attempt to log into MWO Service App they get ‘Invalid Username or Password’They have the same permissions sets granted as a user that can log into MWO. What else would prevent a user from logging into MWO Service App? I have managed the details via Resource Structure, they are ticked as MWO User but they do not appear in Mobile App User Details, they cannot log in etc. I am sure it is a setting I have missed but I cannot work it out. Thanks,Lisa
I found an On-Boarding element in the Account lobby view in Cloud, but I can’t find where to create the on-boarding process, nor find any more information here in the IFS Community or in the IFS documentation. Can someone explain how to get this in to use, and if there are any more documented information (product documentation) on the function?
Hello, I have a setup with a customer where company A can take out material from Company B´s warehouse via internal trade setup. As company A might pick up more material than needed they often get back and return material to Company B´s warehouse. How do we make this by best practice? RMA? But as the invoice is already matched automatically with the PO at Company B we cannot change the received amount and match the credit invoice automatically. OR what am I missing here? :) If you do RMA you register arrival for the RMA but the PO is not adjusted? Thanks for any input!
Hello there!I was able to create an order report using the Report Generator.However it’s only available as a PDF file.I have been looking for a method to enable the xls file from the IFS and I found the Community post - Excel output from Order Report.It gave me a direction for my research, but the links aren't working, do any of you have the functional links or the documentation available?
25.1.7In previous versions there was a page titled Manufacturing Structures. Here it is in Apps10.I do not see this page in my 25R1 world.I recall reading in the Release Notes that a new term, Master Structure, was introduced at some point. Did a page for Master Structures get overlooked?
I need your advice/guidance on the below. Is there a different screen, history/archive where we can access the CIS Payment and Deduction statements? I was able to download them on the day when I ran the tax return from the below screen. I went back to download copies but there is no data showing.
I have a sales charge type that must be calculated based on the quantities shipped on a shipment. The customer order may have multiple shipments but the charges must be calculated per shipment and added to the shipment invoice. I see that the charge is calculated for the entire order and added to the first shipment invoice. I can calculate it manually and add on the customer order after every shingle shipment, but I want to know if it can be configured to do what I need… calculated based on quantities shipped and add to shipment invoice. Thanks in advance !
We have customer using MTR, MTR Generated Manually or through PMRP-MTR is not supporting the Customer Owned Parts.Is there any setup to be done to support the customer owned parts or else it’s the standard functionality in IFS Cloud.
We have POCO enforced. We have Released PO lines, that need their Receipt Date to be changed. When we change Planned Receipt Date from the PO line, we get the error asking to change using POCO. However, if we change the Promised Delivery Date or Planned Delivery Date on the PO line, it updates all the relevant date fields including the Planned Receipt Date, without the POCO error. What is happening here?We would expect to change the Planned Receipt Date without a POCO. 25.1.2
When you add a new line to the No Part line, the quantity is defaulted to 1. Weird design choice. Why is this such in core?Yes, I can change this in page designer, but why is this default?25.2.625.1.2
I'm trying to update an existing record for functional objects using the Smart Data Migration Manager (DMM) tool. I've mapped the Equipment Object Seq field to the legacy source, but when I deploy from the deployment container, it treats it as a new INSERT and returns an error saying the functional object already exists.I've included all the configuration details and data in the description. Could someone help me identify what I might be missing or doing incorrectly?Excel Record I’m trying to Update :Legacy Data :Mapping : Deployment Container :Error;

Hello.I made a custom event action which calls the PDF_REPORT_CREATED action to send emails with a pdf file, containing the customer invoice, that I send to the customer, but is there a way to archive those pdf files on a server? I thought they would be generated on the IFS middleware server but I can find no pdf file thereThanks IFS APPS 10, UPD 5
According to the customer scenario, I created 3 PM Actions with the same starting value and intervals for 3 different objects, and then grouped them using a PM Group.After that, measurements were entered for all 3 objects.For PM 1 and PM 2, the entered measurements exceeded the threshold value. However, for PM 3, the measurement was below the Planned Value.After running the condition generation job:For PM 1 and PM 2, the same Work Request was created due to the PM Grouping. For PM 3, no Work Request was created since the valid measurement was not met, which seems correct.However, my concern is that since all 3 PM Actions are grouped together, is this the expected standard behavior? Should the system also create the same Work Request for the 3rd PM Action because it belongs to the same PM Group?Could someone please clarify the standard system behavior in this scenario?Thanks.
How can one configure scheduled service contract batch job to process only today’s invoices — without including past ones — and without customizing the code?The current parameter processes both current and past invoices.Thank you in advance
We are in the process of transitioning to IFS Cloud, We are currently on IFS APPS 10 and use the IFS ScanIT Aurena 10. We have a test environment set up (On 25R1) and are wanting to begin testing WADACO (we use Android Devices) but cannot find instructions on how to log in. We have been told to use IFS Aurena ScanIt - The only thing close to that I can find on the Android Store is what we already have.I have no clue what to put in the System ID field and every time I enter our Test Environment URL, I get a server is not reachable error.
cannot approve a mixed payment that has a period allocation, I am trying to move a payment from a supplier account to the balance sheet. I have created the appropriate amendment, but I receive an error when I try to approve.
Hi All, Our customer has a scenario, where the VAT should be calculated on the gross amount (ideally including retention) and match invoice with certified valuation but IFS standard works the other way, VAT will be calcuated always on net amount after deduction of Retention amount. Did anyone gone through the situation and find a way to solve this? THanksRaj
Requirement is to create advance invoice and payment from subcontract or sales contract with possibility to offset advance payment with AFP or valuation on a fixed term (like 10% of advance payment can be offset on every AFP or valuation). We know its the not the standard IFS solution but anyone has the issue and found a way to handle via CRIM?
Hi All, It should be possible to run IFS “in memory”, this means the data-entry tables will run fully in memory.You will be able to select the tables which run in memory. This is facilitated by Oracle.I am curious whether someone has experience with this mode of running parts, or total IFS , in memory. Questions like:Will analytic background jobs run faster? Do you notice differences in data-entry? Do you notice differences in your analytic environment? Thanks in advance,Johan
