IFS Solutions

I have properly creating a sales process and marked it as the default. However, whenever I create a new business opportunity, the “Sales Process” field is not defaulting to the Default Sales Process. What is the issue? This is for IFS Aurena with IFS 10.    

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. 

Is it possible for engineers to work across multiple sites within the same company and, additionally across multiple companies.I have a requirement for engineers to carry out work orders in this regard and have visibility of engineering stocks across all relevant sites / companies.Appreciate the answer to this will likely be down to setup, that is currently what I am struggling with. We are currently on Apps8.Furthermore, are the any pitfalls with regards to this that I should be aware of?Thanks in advance.

 Hello Experts,Please suggest if there is a mechanism, trying to avoid doing a CRIM here.When WO created from service contract/ PM action with a resource defined with an assigned person in contract with relevant hours required,Can same person be assigned in WT/assign work allocation? (can it be automated to fetch from PM action as its already added there?), now it flows to work demands but no allocation is made thought data is existing.Can we automate creating allocation link without a crim, just want to see the best options available?Reason because 900> WO exist initially to manually assign.When WO is created, go to allocations, demand shows but not allocated, can we apply it automatically? 

 Hi,I was wondering whether we can merge CRM accounts (Category = Customer) if they are not connected to any objects or do not have any transactions in the system.One of our customers using IFS Cloud has integrated IFS with an external POS system. They import CRM accounts from POS system and save these as customers (category = customer). The CRM account is labelled as duplicate, but we cannot see the “Merge Account” command on the header to merge the duplicate with the original account.I understand that merge account work ok for prospects but couldn’t find a document explaining any limitations or why it’s not supposed to work for new CRM accounts when the category is customer. Is this the intended behaviour for CRM accounts of type “Customer”, even if duplicate records don’t connect with any objects or do not ha

Hi,Is there a Report for Contractor Time that has been registered but not yet invoiced (PRJT13 Postings Balance)?We are using Time Registration for Contractors to Enter Time Sheets. We then match the Supplier Invoices from the Contractors against the Project Transactions. These use PRJT13 - Project Time Reporting for Contractors Counter Booking. The Project Transactions Time Transaction credits PRJT13. When the Supplier Invoice is matched it debits PRJT13. At any time there will be a balance in the General Ledger in the Account used by PRJT13 relating to to the Contractor Time that has been registered but not yet invoiced (similar to the Purchase Order Receipts leaving a balance in the Account used by M91 relating to what we see in the “Received - Not Yet Invoiced” Report.Thanks for any help.Cheers,Graham

Steps to recreate issue observed in Cloud 24R2: Identify a customer that has more than 25 Address IDs. Navigate to Customer > Address. Expand Address ID dropdown. Scroll to bottom of list and click Show More - repeat until the end of the list is reached Count the number of Address IDs from the full list.Expected result: All customer Address IDs are displayed in the list.Actual result: Some Address IDs are missing from the list. In my example, the customer has 34 distinct Address IDs in the database, but only 25 are visible in the list. Can anyone recreate this? The workaround for now is to open the filter panel and enter the customer number in the customer filter - then all addresses are loaded in the list.  

I have a strange problem. I have developed a SQL Quick Report which execute perfectly: returns 19 rows as expected but no data is shown in some of the columns. These columns are related to Shop Order Costs.So if I log in to IEE,  go the the SQL QR and execute it: the cost columns are empty for all 19 rows. If I open the Shop Order Costs form, filter to the same order_no than the SQL QR: I can see the costs. Now if I go back and execute the SQL QR I get: 19 rows and all the empty cost columns are now full of number!What the hell is going on? Anyone have ideas?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows if Apps10 is compatible with punchout technology for eProcurement? Is there any documentation available on how this can be setup in Apps10?Thanks 

We are under the impression that we have to create one sales part number and a different part number for purchases so we can track our inventory correctly. Is this true or is there a way to use the same part number for sales to customers and for purchase of components that go into top level parts we sell to customers?For example, we buy widget A under part number A001. This part is used in 10 other top-level parts we manufacture. We sell A001 as a top-level part to customers. So, for inventory tracking, we have the sales part A001 in sites 1 and 2 coded accounting group code 30 for Finished Goods. The purchase part A001 we have coded with accounting group code 10 for Purchased Part. It seems we are reserving the purchase parts for sales to customers versus using them to build top level parts for sale.Also, unfortunately, it seems our controller can’t seem to run month end reporting with correct inventory figures since we use the same part number for both sales and purc

Is it possible to estimate when improvements to conditional formatting will be available in the IFS Cloud?The options for conditional formatting in the IFS Cloud are significantly more limited compared to APPS10.The number of available colors is considerably smaller. Only the background, not the text itself, can be formatted. Text styles (bold, italic) cannot be adjusted. The available operators are also significantly restricted. We particularly miss the ability to search for parts of labels (e.g., "~pipe" for "contains pipe"). We are currently unable to replicate all the formatting options used in APPS10.Conditional formatting is a valuable tool for ensuring readability and a quick overview of tables. We hope that the familiar functionality will soon be available in the IFS Cloud as well. Best regardsJakob

Hi All,We are looking at the Strategic Procurement Module - has anyone got a set up guide, detailed presentations, videos or any information on how they set it up or how they are using is it?We want to see if we can use it to score our suppliers on a ‘word’ based questionnaire/survey (similar to 1-5). Survey to be emailed to our internal team on Projects and results recording in Supplier file KPI.If anyone else is using it for this, happy to share information on how we have integrated the Sub Contractor capacity - T/O versus outstanding SC Order Valuations to pay :). Thanks Trudy

I’ve got a question about the SQL statement generating by projections when there’s a reference involved. It’s heavily simplified from TransportTaskLinesList.projection:@Overrideentity TransportTaskLines using TransportTaskLine { crud = Read, Update, Delete; attribute PartNo Text { editable = [false]; } ... reference InventoryPartRef(FromContract, PartNo) to InventoryPart(Contract, PartNo);}When we use this, the generate select statement is going to look like this (again heavily simplified:SELECT A0.transport_task_status_db A0_transport_task_status_db .... FROM (SELECT A.* FROM (SELECT TRANSPORT_TASK_STATUS_DB transport_task_status_db, order_type_db order_type_db, transport_task_id transport_task_id ... FROM TRANSPORT_TASK_L

Dear community. Since moving to IFS Cloud we have found that when using the users local printers \\SERVER\PRINT to print reports, i.e. Purchase Order Arrival and Sales Order Quotation, if the report is landscape, it does not automatically rotate it, and it prints it on portrait orientation, and resizes the printout to fit inside the portrait orientation. We notice that when the job is printed, the system downloads the file to \downloads, which is expected, and when viewing the downloaded printout in Acrobat or similar, it appears to be in Landscape orientation, however the physical printout is always incorrect. I cant believe that we are the only ones that have ever seen this. Any assistance would be appreciated.David. 

Hi guys,When adding components to the Consist Of Tab in the Engineering Part Navigator on IFS Cloud the Drawing Position No tab is mandatory and it’s always a “*”. What is the purpose of this Tab and is it possible to remove it if not in use OR set default “*” when adding a new component to the BOM.Thank youRegardsIna

Can work Order Planning gantt in IFS Cloud 24R1 be enriched with custom fields?I have a requirement where work order planners need to plan and schedule work orders based on Equipment Object groups. Object group is not visible in the gantt view, so my intention was to add it as a custom field with page designer. However there is no list of attributes in the page designer. 

We are trying to delete an inventory part because it was entered incorrectly and are getting the following error message.  

Hi community, We work with IFS Apps10 and I'm trying to set up a Boomi integration for EDI Customer Orders via REST API calls.I managed to create a Customer order directly via the CustomerOrderHandling API, I'm able to make adjustments on the Lines, so that is working.But, it appears that in the Enterprise Explorer, within that created Customer Order, the "Send Confirmation" option is disabled . Searching the cause of this I found that in the Customer Order Presentation Object, a function CUSTOMER_ORDER_TRANSFER_API.Allowed_To_Send is called, which checks that the Customer order has a Message record in the table EXTERNAL_CUSTOMER_ORDER_TAB. It appears to be possible to pick a record in that table (with status Requires approval), patch it with the already created Customer Order number and then set the status to "Created" by means of the REST methodIncomingCustomerOrderHandling.svc/IncomingCustomerOrders(MessageId={message

Hi,We are currently using tax class for sales parts and it generally works fine (tax code is picked up from tax codes per tax class depending on delivery country). We use IFS10, UPD 15.But do anyone have any instructions for how to work with exemptions?Example 1, domestic sales (delivery country is domestic) but sales should be with zero VAT – for this we have set up separate address ID for customer with tax liability “exempt” and added tax free tax code. This works fine, but is it the recommended solution?Example 2, delivery country is foreign (other EU country), but invoice goes to domestic customer who is not liable for VAT in delivery country, so sales should be with domestic VAT. Adding a tax code on the delivery address does NOT override tax class setup, so tax code is still picked up from tax code per tax class and then needs to be manually changed on the customer order. Is there any way of setting up a delivery address so that correct tax code wou

Hi all, when selecting the Time Type Description and the Cost Category Description in the Page Designer as Attribute in the Time Report and Expense Report Lists the column in the Service Protocol is not populated until the MWO App is initialized again.In case of the Time Type I think there even is no pure Description to select as attribute.Is there a way to utilize the Descriptions that are already loaded in the MWO to not require an initialization to finalize a visit/report?When using the DB Viewer I can see the TimeTypeDesc value in the wo_time_type and the Description in the jt_cost_category.   

Hi Community,I would like to use different tax codes on a manual supplier invoice based on the supplier invoice address ID.I’ve added separate address IDs and tax codes under Delivery Tax Information, and the “Use Supplier Address for Tax” option is enabled for both addresses. However, when creating a manual supplier invoice, the system always applies the tax codes from the address ID that is set as the default delivery address for the supplier.Does anyone know how to change this behavior?Thanks in advance.  

We are trying to configure our Navigator to be as streamlined as possible, and to hide unnecessary menu items for all users. With the Navigator you can control the items either through access to pages/projections, and they are hidden in the menu, or you can use the Hide function in the Navigator.This is specifically useful for items which are visible on multiple menu branches. My question is how to manage/solve the following scenario.If we have two types of users who should see different items in the menu.When you Hide all items under one Node, or have removed all projection access to items on one node, the Node item is still visible, but it’s now a dead/empty button where nothing happens when you click on it (and it is also reverted to English for some reason).The reason why we do this is that some items should be hidden for All users, but some items should be available and visible if you have access to that projection/p

Hi Community, I want to create a migration Job which calls the procedure Confirm_Alternates from Engineering Transfer_API view. The Parameter Structure_rec_ is a variable for the above procedure Can anyone help me on how to use this as a parameter in migration job?Best Regards,Thean
