Hi, apart from the home page and the Filter Panel, are there any other visual changes between 24R2 and 25R2 (currently updating ClickLearn material and ideally would be great not to have to sift through each training area and compare between screens to identify all  the areas with changes)  Thank you in advance

Hi,Is there anyone else that has experienced this problem? Some time later, the difference were gone. 

When creating ‘kitting labels” for shop order that is reserved the only labels that print out are supply type ‘Inventory Order’.  Why will the supply type ‘Project Invenotry’ not print for stockroom to PICK all of the reserved material?  We don’t have this problem in APP9 but soon going to CLOUD 24.2 in few months.   

CLOUD 24R1Scenario: Prerrequisites: Handling unit type with packaging material part associated and ‘Reusable’ option enabled.Go to the Inventory part in stock and select a part that has not handling unit connected. Select the option to Pack according to Handling unit Capacity and enter the quantity to pack for an specific Handling unit type.  The part is packed with an specific handling unit ID. The packaging material of the handling unit type is consumed automatically and issue from the stock If I go again to the Inventory part in stock and select the part that I have just packed and select ‘Unattach from handling unit’ for unpack, the system will not receive again the packaging part into stock to be able to be used again for another packing. The quantity on hand of the packaging material should not be increased?Thank you in advance.

When an additional outside operation is added directly to a Shop Order and is not part of the standard routing, the operation cost can be recorded, but the associated overhead costs are not allocated. Overhead costs appear to be applied only to operations that are defined in the routing structure.This can occur in scenarios such as one-time rework that needs to be performed by an external supplier, where creating and maintaining a separate routing is not practical. In these cases, only the direct outside operation cost is captured, while the related overhead costs are excluded from the cost calculation.Has anyone encountered a similar requirement?Are there any recommended approaches in IFS Cloud to ensure overhead costs are also captured for additional outside operations added directly to a Shop Order? How are such "adjusted" Shop Orders typically handled to achieve accurate cost reporting?

Hello, I have implemented a REST call and in general it works or fails as expected. However, when it fails (e.g. POST request) it triggers the "failed callback function”:   Plsql_Rest_Sender_API.Call_Rest_EndPoint2(rest_service_        => rest_service_,                                             xml_                 => json_,                                             url_params_          => url_,                                             callback_func_       => callback_func_,                                             http_method_         => http_method_.action,                                             --http_req_headers_    => ,                                             --query_parameters_    => ,                                             --header_params_       => ,                                             incld_resp_info_     => true,                                             --fnd_user_            => Fnd_Session_API.Get_Fnd_User,     

The german translation for the part serial history field OrderType is missing. All the other attributes are translated, but this is missing.   Product Version: 25.2.4

Changing "Currency Formatting Option" field did not impact all fields with decimals only the fields that are currency related. Is there a way of setting a standard number of decimals across all fields? 

We are currently in the process of migrating documents stored in SharePoint to Azure file storage. Our aim is to retain the current folder structure that matches the document class within SharePoint. However, we have encountered some challenges along the way.I came across some information regarding the relevance of this process. Could you please confirm if this information is still applicable for version 25R1.7.  Any insights or guidance you have would be greatly appreciated, as we want to ensure a smooth transition.  

Report time - Default value for resource group disappears when you search for work task When choosing Work task, to add a new work task for reporting time, when the dialog box opens, you can see the default resource group…But when you search for a work task, the value disappears!In addition the group of fields for Addition Details are collapsed so you do not notice that you do not have any resource group. This creates errors / lack of data several places in the application.If your time transaction do not have a resource group, you also miss a salespartIf your time transaction do not have a resource group, your registration will have no cost.Hours will not be transferred to general ledger without any cost, so we get errors in transfering transactions from maintenance to general ledger.Our financial statements will not be correct. We also miss resource group as a column in the Time registration screen. Can this be added and made obligatory in the Report time dialogue?The same issue in bo

I have lots of migration jobs that are run every night, for example, a re-schedule job to update shop order need data from MRP calculated dateThese run perfectly well and quickly in Apps 10 but run extremely slowly (I mean like they take hours instead of minutes) in Cloud 25R1.There's doesn't appear to be any reason for their slow running in Cloud. They eventually complete without errors or warnings, which is even more frustrating because if there was an error or warning that might give me a clue!Has anyone else experienced this behaviour and what steps did you take if you were able to resolve it?Grateful for any comments, advice or experiences. They are run by a service account (on a fast queue) that has access to the jobs and pretty wide ranging permissions. As I said, no errors or warnings, just e x t r e m e l y slow to complete.Thanks in advance!

I am working for a customer that creates a request for quotation for most purchases.  IFS Cloud does not support capturing charges the same as on a purchase order on the order quotation or the purchase requisition. Has anyone experienced this and how did you overcome? ThanksRichard 

Version: Apps10 UPD19 Hello procurement experts!We have a situation where we want to be able to create a blanket PO or similar with one-time approval, with one supplier for just a few select parts, and then request a drawdown against that as when site inventory is consumed or running low.  We are struggling with how to  implement this, even though it seems like it should be straightforward.Initially we looked at creating a PO for e.g. 6 months of supply quantity, with many lines in the PO for the quantity of a min delivery (e.g. qty 16 for 1 pallet to be delivered).  The PO would be approved once, and then each time the total qty at the site fell below a defined threshold the buyers would release one or more lines from that ‘blanket’ PO as needed.  Unfortunately when the PO is approved it seems it always approves all of the PO lines, which makes this a non-viable approach.How else can handle this kind of approach where we need to:‘approve once’ for a large quantity draw down against th

Hi,   I would like to know why is it important to timely clear error messages from Maintenance Posting Analysis. What impact does it have if we dont do it timely.

Community,Testing in IFS Cloud (25R2), Service Request, but I am not able to find the Create Receive Order/Customer Order, which is to bring/ship Customer Owned object back from/to customer. Any idea? 

During execution of the IFS Master Schedule (MS) process, we observed that past-due MS By Part records and their related Shop Order Requisitions (SORs) are automatically deleted by the system. This creates planning and supply chain risks, as the linkage between the Master Schedule and generated SORs is lost.All affected parts are configured as buildable, plannable, and MS Level 1. However, the system only allows future dates for MS By Part lines, and when “Run MS – One Part” is executed, past-due records are removed together with the dependent SORs.Although SORs can be recreated manually, this breaks the traceability between the MS record and the generated requisitions.Has anyone experienced similar behavior?Is there any recommended approach, configuration, or workaround to retain past-due Master Schedule records and prevent the related SORs from being deleted or re-planned?

Dear community,  I have a shop order with 5 components. One of them is linked to the outside operation by the procedure step in the tab materials on the shop order.  Then, I put “ship WIP to outside operation” function for each shop order created. But this does not make any sense from time-wise point of view.  However, the purchase order is then created by marking all the lines at once and this creates just one purchase order all together. I was hoping to use the functionality ship supplier material but this works only for components and not non-inventory parts. Is there any chance to do this “in general” for all the shop orders under one DOP? At least for one operation block at once? So they can use just the waddacco process to send it out?  Do you have any solution that does not involve custom-made solution?  

Hello,Does anyone have a use case where a Functional Object or structure can remain In Operation however it has limited capability until the relevant objects below it are returned to full service. How is this handled in IFS Cloud?   Many thanks.

Basically, I want to update a custom field on the Work Task (JtTask) page, from the Tech Portal Work  Task Detail page. I notice that some fields on the JtTask are updated when you update the fields on the Work Details screen, e.g. Long Description.How can I add the custom field that is on JtTask to be updated from the Work Task Detail (JtExecutionInstance) page? We thought a workflow may be the solution, but given how the long description is updated, I wondered if there was any other way?? (Even something like, having the same custom field name on both entities… does it then map it?)Thanks for any ideas.

Hello,Is the option to duplicate a line on the Outside Operation Cost screen not available?If so, is there any way to enable this functionality?We have a user requesting this feature. I have tested using an account with full access rights, but the option still does not appear to be available. 

Hello everyone,I am currently working on a customer case where we are evaluating the use of Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) in an environment based on Make-to-Order (MTO) and MS Level 1 parts.The customer is using Demand Planner, and the forecast is transferred directly to MS Level 1, which is then used for production and procurement planning. They do not use MS Level 0 parts in their current process, as all planning is based on real, sellable items.When analyzing S&OP, we see that it can technically work with MS Level 1 data (forecast and supply). However, setup screens such as Product Family Master still do not take an MS Level 1 part.The customer’s goal is to use S&OP mainly to compare unconstrained demand vs constrained operations plan and to support capacity evaluation (RRP), without modifying the original forecast.Could you please clarify:What is the recommended approach for using S&OP in an MTO setup based on MS Level 1? Is the MS Level 0 part still required

Advance supplier invoice payments do not get automatically fetched to the Supplier Payment Proposals window. (RMB and Create Supplier Proposal in Supplier Payment Proposals window) Can we know whether this functionality would be available/considered in future developments of the IFS application? Note: Advance supplier invoice payments can be added to the supplier payment proposal manually from LOV.  

Hi Everyone,Thought this might be useful for anyone working with REST APIs in IFS Cloud. Since many of us use APIs for integrations, automation, and data access, I wanted to share a simple approach that combines the power of VS Code, Python, and IFS Cloud REST APIs.I’ve found this method very convenient because it provides the flexibility of Python development together with the productivity features of VS Code. More importantly, in the long run, this approach becomes:✅ Reusable✅ Shareable across teams✅ Easy to implement and extend✅ Object-Oriented (OOP-based)✅ Easier to maintain✅ Better for structured error handlingThis is especially useful if you are developing integration tools or reusable API utilities — not just for REST API testing.This example demonstrates how to:✅ Authenticate against IFS Cloud using OAuth2 Client Credentials✅ Obtain an access token✅ Call an IFS Projection endpoint using a GET requestFeel free to try it out and share your feedback.
