Reverse bidding, or a reverse auction is available in IFS cloud?  Reverse bidding, or a reverse auction, is a procurement process where suppliers compete to win a buyer's contract by offering progressively lower prices for a product or service. Instead of buyers bidding up the price, as in a traditional auction, sellers in a reverse auction bid prices down. This method drives down costs for the buyer, who then awards the contract to the supplier with the lowest qualified bid.

Hi,I recently got a new 25R1 repository in IFS Scope Tool and I downloaded the 25R1-Data Tracker Template File.What I found is that values are missing in Basic Data sheet - column K (Global/Company/Site). This is very valuable information for us since we are going to implement IFS to a multi Country/Company solution.Also we are also missing the entire Master Data Tracker sheet.My question is if there will be a second release of 25R1 Data Tracker Template including the missing values and the Master Data sheet?Kind Regards,Christian

Hi,We have set of crystal operational reports and are planning to convert them into new Report Studio layouts in cloud. Most of these crystals are having multiple views connected along with a REP view. But the problem is, in Report Studio layouts, we cannot connect multiple views and allows only the REP view.What is the best method to achieve this instead of overtaking the standard RDF?​@dsj any ideas?ThanksRoshanga

Hi,This is an issue within the IFS Cloud Ventechi Pre-sales env that IFS allow their partners to use.We have a demo on the 18th Sept, the feature below was working 2 weeks ago.I have asked IFS support about the issue below, but they have said that they cannot help me with any IFS Pre-sales env related issues.The issue isWhen trying to use the “Quick Expense Reporter” part of IFS Cloud to create an expense record, connect the scanned in receipt to the expense record and use the scanned in data (OCR) to populate the IFS Expense sheet with data. In the IFS Cloud Ventechi Pre-sales environment we get a warning saying "Warning - unable to extract detail from the receipt at this time. Enter expense details manually".The stage in the process where the warning message is displayed, is

When I try to allocate/Assign a person to a work task from the prepare work order window (Assign multiple Task > Type Resource > Select Resource from Drop down> Click on OK) at times it get below error message (picture 1) which results in below assignment without a resource tied to it (picture 2) – that cannot be used and need to be cancelled. This happens intermittently and doing the exact same (typing the same letter, pressing the same resource) works 1 minute after.Pic 1:Pic 2:   

I have an issue that has only cropped up with a few users and can’t be solved by normal troubleshooting of Aurena Agent.Process:Prepare Work Order → Attachments → Documents → New Document Set Doc Class and Format, click Select, choose file (located on desktop folder, also tried moving it to the \Documents\IFS folder) Click Upload. The following error messages crop up:1st error message: EdmFile.The "EDM File” has already been removed by another user.2nd error message: Something went wrong when uploading the file using the Aurena Agent. Error message: ForbiddenI have tried uninstalling/reinstalling Aurena Agent, including logout/reboot. Sometimes this works for a little while, but then the issue returns. As mentioned, this is only an issue for a few users, so I don’t think it’s a case of e.g. security settings crashing with IFS operations.Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution?

Dear Experts, I’m trying to build an Excel Migration job that would need to:create some functional objects - EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_API apply a parameter template after the functional object is created - Asset_Param_Template_Util_API.Apply_TemplateBelow is the Medthod List The problem I have is how to pass EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_SEQ when applying the parameter template.This method expects EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_SEQ which is created by method 10 - EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_API. However it seems that at the point of executing method20 the equipment_object_seq is not available.In Mig Jobs - migrate source data it was possible to set a COMMIT rule - I was thinking if such a thing is possible for Excel migration - for example to commit after each method.

Hello IFS Community,I exported a layout from the IFS CFG environment on the Report Definition page. It’s a working layout that I previously modified and now need to update. However, when I try to open it in IFS Report Designer (connected to the CFG environment), the PDF does not open.I haven’t made any changes yet. Even when I try to open layouts that I had successfully modified before, the PDF still does not open.Has anyone experienced this behavior or know what might be causing it?As shown in the screenshot below, I am connected to the CFG environment. 

Hello,Has anyone come across this error and managed to fix?  I have uninstalled and reinstalled both the Aurena Agent and Chrome Extension but still no luck.

Hello, I have two questionsWe are now starting with DMS - could you let us know whether there is some kind of option that allows us to limit the documents for particular SITE / SITES? We have 5 companies within the holding and some documents are limited for one, some for two, some are available for the whole holding company.  Our sales man have given rights in the CRM module and so on… they have their own customer orders and documents related to them. Is there a way (in case one is on long-term sick leave or holiday) how to “temporarily” add them the rights for the documents of the original person so he can see the contracts necessary? Something like for authorization of purchase orders where you state the “replacement” and the time for which he / she is valid to approve it for.  Thank you very much for your feedback,BRPetra

Hey everyone, Has anyone else noticed any weird stuff with the Analogue gauge when one tries to choose the option “Show As Percent”?I’m trying to visualize Closed Shop Orders divided by Planned Shop Orders, so this value is between 0 and 1. The problem is that the gauge itself doesn’t show the percentage, but rather points to the right horizontally, and formatting doesn’t want to work either (colors take over itself randomly):Check gauge position and colorsThe datasource is selected from dual and is the following: ((SELECT COUNT(*) FROM &AO.SHOP_ORD WHERE objstate in ('Closed') AND TRUNC(EARLIEST_START_DATE) BETWEEN TRUNC(sysdate, 'mm') AND LAST_DAY(TRUNC(sysdate, 'mm')) AND contract LIKE NVL('$SITE$','%')))/(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM &AO.SHOP_ORD WHERE objstate NOT IN ('C

We are using the APIs: RequestServices/CreateRequest and ReqWorkTaskServices/AddReqWorkTask each day to integrate requests and work tasks from a third party system to IFS Cloud 24R2. We are using Workato as our middleware.Each day we receive at least 2 errors 404 Not Found {   "error": {     "code": "ODP_RESOURCE_NOTFOUND",     "message": "Resource not found."   } } - but when we reprocess the job, the same data succeeds without any errors, so we know there are no data issues or functional issues within either side of the process.The integration user has the necessary permissions, is a person, assigned to the right companies and sites - and the fact that when replayed the message succeeds, shows this is not a security or setup issue.  Our volumes are increasing and we therefore do not want to be in a position where we are having to manually intervene with our integrations to replay these jobs.We are trying to understand if anyone else receives these const

I’m looking to trigger an event action email in IFS Cloud when the system date equals the date entered in the date field. I have tried entering TRUNC(SYSDATE), TRUNC(CURRENT_DATE), and #TODAY#. I have been using the NEW:EXP_DATE field. I’m trying OLD:EXP_DATE to see if this triggers.Does anybody know how to trigger an email when dates match?

Hi all, I have a problem with time types and resource groups in IFS Cloud / MWO App.The Situation is, that we have one Resource Group, which contains all other Resource Groups of our different entities.The Reason is, that all resources need to be able to enter the time types in the MWO App independent on where they are in the world and which entity planned them. Now I have the problem, that not always the correct resource group is selectable in the MWO App. Sometimes its there and sometimes not. Independent of Task or Bundle Task or in which entity the resource is employed.For example 2 resources from the US, both working an Request Work Tasks, both identically set up.One can select the correct Time Types and one cant.Has anyone ever had similar issues?Thanks,Chris
