Hello Folks ! Just wanted to share something I fixed recently with Incoming Customer Order in IFS Cloud 25R1.  We have been using the SalesMessageService API to create Incoming Customer orders for some time now.  We recently updated to 25R1 and noticed that the incoming customer order API broke. OverviewIf you’ve recently upgraded or considering upgrading to IFS Cloud 25R1 and use the SalesMessageService API for creating Incoming Customer Orders, this update may affect you. A field change in the order‐lines payload is causing deserialization errors. The Error You’ll See{  "error": {    "code": "ODP_DESERIALIZATION_ERROR",    "message": "Error while de-serializing contents.",    "details": [      {        "message": "Tree should be empty but still has content left: WantedDeliveryDa

We are running IFS Applications 10 Update 27 and I would like to grant read access to Application Messages for finance to be able to see what messages has failed. I expected to find it as an Activity in the Permission Set, but was not able to find it.

Hello All,While installing FSM on premise for HTTP (clarification, we setup 443 on HTTP and 8443 for HTTPS)We are getting error port number does not match with configuration site bindings. Please specify a valid port number. Our Bindings looks like this: So far we tried, changing HTTP back to 80 followed by IISRESET and setting up streaming Endpoint also to 80, 443 etc but the error remains same.In general, what are the guidelines to setup FSM application on HTTP?

!--startfragment>Hi all,Following an internal penetration test, a recommendation was flagged regarding SSL/TLS configuration. Specifically, the remote host is advertising cipher suites that are considered discouraged. The recommendation is to restrict support to the following secure and widely compatible cipher suites:TLSv1.3:0x13,0x01 – TLS13_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 0x13,0x02 – TLS13_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 0x13,0x03 – TLS13_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256TLSv1.2:0xC0,0x2B – ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256 0xC0,0x2F – ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256 0xC0,0x2C – ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 0xC0,0x30 – ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 0xCC,0xA9 – ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305 0xCC,0xA8 – ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305These suites are considered highly secure and compatible with nearly all modern clients.Could anyone confirm whether IFS C

I am using Excel add-in for data migration most of the time no issues.in a few examples i need to do some data retrieval/lookup and have used an expression in the ‘default value’ column in the migration job.However, as yet i am struggling to do the same with a simple SQL select. Is it not possible or is my syntax incorrect. I have no guidance so I am making it up as a I go, I could be doing it incorrectly.I did write a select first in quick reports to prove it was correct, although it is so simple I did not really need to.When I click validate or execute - I don’t get any feedback, (the debug feature does not work) - but if I remove the select my other data updates - so something about my approach is failing. Thank you for any suggestions!  

We have used the RMA process to have parts returned from the customer for a long time but would like to consider using CRO because it would allow us to bring the part in as customer owned. When using an RMA there is an RMA document created that can be sent to the customer and is also what is used by receiving to know what to receive that part back in against. I am pretty new to the CRO process, but I do not see what is used to communicate with the customer similar to how an RMA document is used? Am I missing something?

I’m looking for some sort of materials to get trained on how to use the excel add-in tools for data migration. Would love to learn more about designing migration jobs, setting defaults, strategy, and more. I can’t seem to find anything on Community or Academy for resources. Where do you go to learn?

Hello folks,Does anyone have a test scenario document (ideally with step by step instructions) that can be followed to test the Schedule of Work in IFS ? If you can please share some reference material, it would be very helpful. Thanks,Ash 

Hello, Occasionally, we will get errors in our incoming Application Messages for Supplier Invoices. We are utilizing a Pagero integration to retrieve and load Supplier Invoices. A majority of them are successful, but some Fail with error text: Field [FEE_CODE] is mandatory for Ext Inc Inv Tax Items and requires a value.When opening successful messages, the FEE_CODE is in the xml. For failures, it isn’t. Suppliers have resubmitted and indicate they’re using a standard format, but still no FEE_CODE. For Supplier submissions that don’t contain this value, can a customization be done to the transformer (or elsewhere in IFS) to make this not required?Thanks,Jeff NattermannBusiness Systems Analyst

I have a client that is anticipating moving from Apps 10 to Cloud.  The main issue is that the parts may have been originally set up with the incorrect unit of measure. I know in the past we were able to set up translation tables in migrations to help accommodate this. Is it possible to use such a process to change an item’s or several item’s units of measure?  I’d also like to know how others have perhaps performed unit of measure changes on existing parts.  Thanks!

We are wanting to start to use the project function within IFS Cloud, has anyone got any guidance on how to start to set it up. Currently, we really only need it for analysis purposes - we are not trying to collate it to invoice it.So the easiest way to get started is what we need at the moment,

We have just started using the fixed asset functionality on IFS Cloud.We have numerous assets with the same object group, however, we would like only the depreciation to use different departments when creating the depreciation proposal.I have tried setting up a preposting (as i note in previous chats this has been advised), using the code part distribution and adding what i wanted, however, this does not pull through onto the depreciation proposal Any ideas?

HiI’m interested to have an understanding of the everyday life after the move to Cloud version and how you keep up with the IFS releases and upgrades.Many customers seems to go the “update once a year” route to get to the latest release. Much depends of course of the scope you are using the platform for and how are the borders of each customer’s ICT systems set and integrated with each other.Our IFS scope is pretty basic, mostly finance/ERP with purchasing and project related activities and HR master system, adn we have just moved from Apps9 to 10.I’m interested of you who have already moved from different Apps-versions to Cloud or even you who have moved directly from other system to IFS Cloud, and your views about the adaptation to the new everyday life.What has changed in areas of the amount of IFS/partner support needed, the amount of your own work needed to keep up with the releases and even the spend changes for doin

Hi heros,I am getting the error below when trying to connect to IFS Cloud using MS Project. Any idea? Thanks, Gianni Neves

Two stage RFQ and Quotation available in IFS cloud? The two-stage RFQ process involves the submission by the suppliers of a technical quote and a commercial quote. The technical quotes are opened and evaluated first to determine a list of qualified suppliers, and only then are the commercial quotes of the qualified suppliers opened and evaluated.

We have reporting rules set-up to process individual payment advice prints.However, it appears that, when you make a BACS payment run, it doesn’t split the payment advice up into seperate Print Jobs. You just get one big file with all the suppliers details in. We want to e-mail each supplier their individually - has anyone had this issue/found a workaround/solution?

In IFSAPP10, this table object is being updated and we don’t no why? Why would this table object be updated (SECURITY_SYS_REFRESH_USER_TAB)? There are no records in the table at this time. Does it get effected by a security refreash?Need to know for audit purposes. Thank you.

We are currently using IFS Applications 10 (UDP 10), and we would like clarification on how to properly handle "Other Charges" such as Customs Duty that are invoiced by a different supplier than the one supplying the goods on the Purchase Order.Scenario:Goods are ordered from Supplier A via a standard Purchase Order.Customs Duty is incurred as an "Other Charge" on the PO.The duty is invoiced separately by Supplier B (e.g. a customs broker or freight forwarder).We want the customs cost to be included in inventory valuation and cost of goods, but the actual invoice is from a different supplier than on the PO.Questions:What is the recommended way in IFS Applications 10 to:Add such "Other Charges" to a PO?Ensure correct accounting and costing (including inventory value)?Book the customs invoice from Supplier B correctly?Is there a standard process or best practice for this scenario (e.g. use of manual supplier

Does anything currently exist that allows two orders to be linked or associated. Currently we have multiple orders that are associated based on Customer, or work requirement and it would be advantageous to have something that allows us to see the orders together.

Dear Finance experts, I’m testing the intercompany material flow and everything goes well  until I send the Customer Invoice in company A to company B.Connectivity Out Message is created and transferred.Connectivity In message - company B - fails with error message: ORA-20111: UserFinance.RECNOTEXIST: Access denied! User IFSAPP is not connected to Company B In case I don’t wanna grant access to IFSAPP to all the companies, is there any other way to setup the Outbox / Inbox messages so that they are run by another user?
