Dear All, I was working with Work Orders, Permits and Isolation orders. The whole idea was to create Work Task Templates and Pm actions involving Permits and Isolation orders so that 1 Work Order would suffice. I want to create 1 Work Order where 2 Work Tasks need to be done (with a dependency Start after Finish).The 1st Work Task involves welding so the machine has to be 100% electrically isolated - and will be performed by a Welder. The 2nd Work Task is a calibaration mode, so the machine must have power, but still be isolated from the normal production. Conveyor belts (that are powered separately) are not allowed to be running. So different kind of permitThe thing is, apparently to be able to start the 1st Work Task, both permits need to be released. Despite the fact that the Work Task are 2 completely separate things that are performed after each other, by different people, maybe even with a day in between due to scheduling conflicts.  So this does not seem to making sense to me. I

In Report Studio there are five Dynamic Images functions.  Image, Logo, and Signature all work without issue.  I have not been able to get DBImage and Media to work.  Has anybody successfully used these two functions in Report Studio? (I know there are workarounds, I’m specifically asking about the functionality in Report Studio) To test, I put a single image in the Media Item.Following the syntax in the Tech Docs, I have tried the following:Media(‘RKS’), Media(‘1000’), Media(1000) → none display the picture in the report output.DBImage('MEDIA_ITEM','MEDIA_OBJECT','ITEM_ID=1000') , same in lowercase, same with appowner in front of the view name. → none display the picture in the report output.

Hello all, Has IFS added the ability to utilize the customer consignment sales process with configured to order manufactured parts? 10 and prior, it was not possible. Thanks,Rich 

Our customer has a  situation where engineers are unable to complete work tasks for various reasons, hence puts the task to incomplete with incomplete reason. Based on incomplete reason we would need a revisit on the same task and hence a new assignment is needed.If we do it from Mobile we have two options,Assign to me (which asks for preferred date and time) Needs to be plannedIdeally the requirement is let PSO decide when can it be replanned for based on the SLA. However problem here is, if we give the option of Needs to be planned, it creates a the new allocation but goes to unallocated as it becomes a co-requisite of the previous assignment (one which was incompleted) and thus cannot be scheduled by PSO anymore and also it will never go to the same technician even if technician has the available. And if we give assign to me, we need to give the preferred date and time and it goes to accepted status directly which is completely wrong.I’m looking for suggestions or best practices on

Hi everyone,We’ve recently installed IFS Cloud 25R2 and have started testing the e‑invoicing features. During our checks, we noticed that the UBL 2.1 file generated by IFS for the outgoing invoice flow does not fully comply with the requirements of the French tax authorities.Some mandatory XML tags appear to be missing, such as the SIREN and the invoice routing address.I’d be interested to know whether other users have encountered the same issue, and if so, what solutions or workarounds you are considering.Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Hi,The company I work for builds racing cars and we would like to exchange with users that have been able to manage successfully product structures with different options / configurations per customer and by product (cars in our example).We would like to be able to deal differently with the purchasing depending on the parts and the assembly order.We would like a picking stategy/order that depends on the structure.We would like to follow the missing parts to focus on the priority parts depending on assembly.We would like to have a multi-level structure per parts, assembly, full assembly and full car.Can anyone share their experience if you have been able to implement it in IFS ?Thanks and Regards,Anne-Sophie

Hello,We are a new user for IFS and currently in the build stage.I am looking at the verification of UK VAT numbers.Is it right that I need to personally register for HMRC developer hub account to get a Client ID and Secret?I’ve been able to query HMRC’s test API and successfully verify their test VAT number, but I am not 100% sure that I should be getting a developer ID and secret for this.I do note that the HMRC “Check a UK VAT number API” version 2.0 requires authentication.I just can’t believe that every company who has IFS needs to register a HMRC developer account to be able to use this functionality.Thank you,

Hi,When we create a customer e-invoice based on a customer order based on work orders,  information from all the underlying work orders are sent along the invoice as a separate attachment (named “invoice_specification”). This is a big problem for us as the work orders contain internal information that we don’t want the customers to see. We just want to send the invoice to the customers. How can we prevent the attachment with all the work order information to be created and attached to the customer e-invoice?Thank you,David

Hi all,I was little surprised  that we dont have any screen in IFS which can tell me to historic inventory transaction and inventory on hand at that time….  I was looking the “ inventory Transaction History ”I am able to see the inventory transaction but it does not have any field which will tell the running total ??? Can any one tell me if such functionality is exist  but i am not just aware of it? 

Hello, I have been asked to set up automatics ACH payments in IFS. Is there any resources out there on how to do this? I am not finding anything. Please keep in mind that Finance is not my area of expertise when answering. Thanks.

Hi everyone. Just wondering whether it is possible to use a *.csv file with the relevant information in to bulk upload Business Activities into IFS cloud, rather than have to enter each one individually. Thanks 

If anyone has knowledge regarding the subject matter, I would appreciate your guidance.Currently, my understanding is that by enabling “Report Planned Costs” on the subcontract contract side, the contract amount would be reflected as planned costs in the project activities. However, this is not occurring in our case.Therefore, could you please advise on the following points?(As I am not very familiar with accounting, I would appreciate it if you could advise on what kind of configurations are required to achieve this.)The prerequisites and required settings to reflect planned costs in project activities Any missing configurations or operations that may be required ■Accounting-related settings that may be relevant ■ Enabling “Report Planned Costs”   ■ Planned costs are not reflected in the activities

Dear IFS Automation Team,we are running remote deployment of IFS Cloud 23R2SU7 and we would like to test ML interfaces for Expenses and Invoices. Some time ago I got attached document how to configure ML with 23R1. Can you pls. provide the same for 23R2? As technical documentation seems to be silent about the configuration;-(  Thanks Jan

Hi,Since we installed 23R1 we have the possibility to create a button linked to a BPA.But we noticed that in this case all the errors will be raised with the same message : If you launch a standard flow with standard errors you won’t see the right message. Instead you have this generic message shown in the screen shot.Is there a way to show the right error message or is this a bug that should be fixed ?Thank youFabrice

Dear IFS TeamWhile testing the  Warehouse Route Order on Bin level, I’ve noticed that the Pick List for the Shipment will not be sorted according to the Route Order logic when the Source Ref Type is “Shipment Order”.For the other common objects like Customer Order, Shop Order or Material Requisition it works fine.I guess this is due to the fact that Shipment Order is a “new” function in IFS Cloud.Can someone from the IFS Team verify whether this is an official gap?BR Nikola  

Hey all,So, like almost everyone, I’m pretty new to Report Studio in IFS Cloud. We have been using Crystal Reports and because that is getting deprecated, I’m having to learn it pretty quickly.Anyway, there have been two things whilst making the laser check print, that should have been easy to do, but weren’t, and because I couldn’t find them, I thought I’d share.The first was the payee address, this was coming out as a single line, which is less than ideal. After a week, I brute forced it after adding a calculated field to the ADDRESS_LINE table, with the data member as the ADDRESS_LINE and the expression as [].Join( [PAYEE_ADDRESS], Char(10) ). Nowhere in the documentation, does it explain this, especially that part where [] is the data member.The second part was the amount. We pad the start with asterisks, but the format would not stick for whole numbers, so, 1200 would not come out as ****1200.00 even though I had the format setup. After a day of trying I came up with this:Iif(Roun

We have been using the Detail Statistics pages in IFS Cloud 24R2 to report Invoiced Sales, Order Entry, etc, it’s a differential update report, so if there are no changes, it doesn’t update the lines. Someone in the organization has updated the name of a large customer, and so now, we have two customer names associated with the customer number in the Detail Statistics.I’m wondering how we could force it to update the lines. I’m guessing with a deletion migration job? BUt I wondered if there was a less scorched earth approach.

Hi everyone,I’m trying to confirm two things about standard IFS functionality on Business Opportunities and Projects. ​​ Can a Business Opportunity be connected to or converted into a Project (in the Project Management Module)?  Does the Opportunity status matter? For example, can an Opportunity in Closed, Won, or Lost status still be converted to a Project, or does it need to be in a specific phase? note that I am using IFS cloud 25R2 V4 environment to test this out. If anyone can confirm whether this functionality exists in standard IFS (Apps 10 or Cloud), and under what conditions the command appears, I’d appreciate it.Thanks!Sachitha D

Hi,When we employ contractors that are linked to a PO, the cost of that PO is automatically charged to the related project when the contractor register it's time to that project.However, we do not seem to have the option, or at least I am not aware of it, to change this behavior. For regular employees, there are several costing options available. For example, the project cost can be based on the resource group cost instead of the employee’s actual cost.I would like to apply the same setup to contractors. When a contractor is assigned to a resource group, I want the project to be charged based on the resource group cost rather than the direct PO cost.Is there a way to achieve this?Thanks!
