Hello Community,In IFS Cloud, while importing multiple permission sets, the system gives us a summary and allows us to select whether to merge, skip or replace the permissions. We need to do this for each permission manually. Is there an option to select one option for all permissions or a group of permissions? Thanks in advance!
Hi,Is it possible to restrict a specific user to B2B access only, So that the user cannot access the aurena client and can access only the B2B client?
" OccurrenceA numerical value representing the probability that each failure will happen on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 representing most likely."in IFS this value is for cause, so why it writes in help such that?and if any cause has occurrence score why it said in help that Most failures have only one cause but some may have multiple causes
Hi All,We need to change the format of BOC payment file from UTF-8 to ANSI by doing through the batch process in IFS Cloud.The approach is to use the batch process (background job) with defined character sets if we need to generate file encoding with ANSI format.Could you please explain and let me know how to apply a defined character set to the job when it runs?Regards,Vignesh

The customer has been upgraded to version 25R1 and observed that several triggers in the Scheduling Optimization Triggers window are currently in a disabled state.In the core application, these triggers are available starting from version 24R1 and are also delivered in a disabled state.The customer’s concern is whether these triggers should remain as they are or if they need to be manually enabled.Additionally, they would like to understand if there is any impact in keeping these triggers disabled.Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thank you,Madushani
Hello everyone,I’m very new to the IFS Cloud version and can’t seem to find a way to allocate a customer payment to multiple invoice without selecting individual identity one at a time.Is there a way to select multiple invoices for one payment please? Since the Customer and Supplier Payment features have been discontinued in the Cloud!I verified that in Lump Sum line, when the identity and invoice number are entered, the button SELECT MULTIPLE INVOICES/PAYMENTS is enabled.However, it will only open the invoices by supplier or customer, not all invoices.ThanksValmira
Those of you who are actively managing subcon work in IFS; have you figured out a way to control the release of PR’s upon release of a shop order? Our subcon PR’s release the moment a Shop order is created, however the subcon portion on a routing may not come up for a week or two. Is there a way to control the release/unrelease of the subcon on the operation no? I’m guessing it might have something to do with Outside OP Supply Type, but I am not sure you can stop it by changing it. Thanks.
Is their a certain way I need to be wording the visible conditions when comparing dates? The documentation for Report Designer is absolutely awful with nothing about coding structure in Visible Conditions. This is what I’ve been trying to get working: tns:DUE_DATE >= vldtdate:currentDateTime()Nothing works and Report Designer will just fail to preview a layout so often when trying out conditions.
Hi all,we are currently facing a situation in IFS Cloud where operations (especially in assembly) are defined with labor time only (labor run time), without any machine time.We observe that in such cases, the system sets start time equal to end time, meaning no actual duration is considered for scheduling → Which is standardFrom our understanding, scheduling in IFS is based on the work center/resource occupation, which is driven by machine time.This raises the question:Is it mandatory to maintain machine time (machine factor) for proper scheduling, even if the operation is purely labor-based (e.g., manual assembly)?And in addition, in the context of MSO.Will missing machine time prevent MSO from correctly scheduling and considering capacity, since no resource load is generated?We did a few testing without machine run factor no scheduling.We would appreciate confirmation whether this is standard system behavior or if there are alternative modeling approaches for labor-only operations.Ar

Hi everyone,I'm working on a customization in the WRKTSK component where I need to add custom columns to an existing table (JT_TASK_TRANSACTION_RTB) and extend several views to include these new fields. The deployment via IFS Developer Studio works perfectly, but when generating the SU3 package through the Lifecycle Portal, the Sanity Build fails with the following error:ORA-00904: "JD_WORK_START": invalid identifier Problem DescriptionI've added 8 custom columns to the JtTaskTransaction entity and created the corresponding .cdb file for the table changes. I also created a .views file to override JT_TASK_TRANSACTION_EXT and several other views that depend on it.The error occurs when the .apv file tries to create views like JT_TASK_TRANSACTION_UTIL, JT_TRANS_BUNDLE_ALL_WO_UIV, and JT_TASK_TRANSACTION_SRV_UIV. These views reference ext.jd_work_start (and other custom columns) from JT_TASK_TRANSACTION_EXT, but the column doesn't exist at the time of view creation.Important observation: Ac
The interest amount generated by IFS for period 4 2026 is 0, as shown below:The base interest is 13 915, 14 - and for other contracts this amount is also the Periodical Interest Amount and not 0 as in this case. The proposal refers to Installment number 87, and here the interest rate is 13 915,14. Why does IFS post 0,00 in amount to GL? Normaylle IFS will never post 0 amount?
I’m currently working on a Workflow for a customer.The Workflow shall create Purchase Orders with Purchase Order Lines for different parts.For this I need to pass the buy unit price but before I can do that, I would like to fetch the correct price first.From debugger I can see that IFS calls PurchaseOrderHandling.svc/ValidateBuyQtyDue.When trying to call this api from the workflow I get the following message:This references unsupported datatype(s)and I cannot seem to get it to work. Any expirence with this or suggestions to other api to use?OBS: price list are used for some Supplier for Purchase Parts.
Hello Community,Does anyone share how to use the following functionality. And is there any ifs technical document to setup this? With Best Regards,Jewel Parvez
Hi together, when I refill a remote warehouse (van stock) via “Refill all putaway zones” I can specify in the remote warehouse assortment if the refill source should be “transport task” or “shipment order”. When I choose “transport task”, it is possible to execute the transfer from mWO. So far so good. But, when I choose “shipment order”, it is not possible to receive the shipment via mWO. I would expcect to find the pending receive unter “Receipt” in mWO. I also checked the sync rule Of ShipmentOrderLine, it seems it syncs only shipments connected to a work task - which is not the case in this process. Of course I can set the option “Automatic receipt” in the shipment type. But, then the stock quantity of the van stock is not correct when the part is not yet picked up by the technician. Is this how the systm works or is there another possibilty which I have overlooked?
Hi all,Here the data is extracted from company1 and migrated to company2 with new project_id and activity_seq updated in the source data file to input to the migration job (say project_id1, activity_seq1 in company1, the new data file will have project_id2, activity_seq2 for company2) I use a FNDMIG job to migrate the purchase_order_line_part for Loram. In the first migration, I remove the project_id and activity_seq fields from source mapping. No migration errors. The row was inserted. But the project_id1 and insert it in code_c field in purchase_order_line_part. And that was wrong and it should take project_id2.Anyone has thoughts on why this is happening and how to resolve this situation?Any clue or advice is much appreciated!. Thank you!
Scenario: There are three inventory parts: A, B and C. Part A is assembled from B and C.When the customer places an order, the customer order lines in IFS are entered as B and C. However, only assembled Part A is available in inventory at the time of customer order shipment.How should this scenario be handled in IFS Cloud? Please provide some suggestions. Thank you.
Scenario: In the Sales module, 100 pcs are shipped in one delivery, but the customer only accepts and inspects 90 pcs upon actual receipt. Accordingly, the customer can only be invoiced for 90 pcs. The remaining 10 pcs can only be accepted, inspected and invoiced in the following month.How can this business scenario be implemented in IFS Cloud?With the current Delivery Confirmation function in IFS, once 90 pcs are confirmed as accepted, the remaining 10 pcs cannot be inspected and accepted separately in subsequent processes.We hope the official IFS team can optimize and enhance this function, as this business scenario is extremely common in the Chinese market.
Add as many details as possible, by providing details you’ll make it easier for others to reply
Just out of curiosity, I would like to understand the naming convention for deliveries in IFS Cloud. We received a delivery to apply in one of our customer’s environments and found odd that the ID was changed from 3.X.X to 4.X.X although they both were created in the same product version, as you can see in the picture below: I thought the first number changed only when applying Release Updates… Thanks in advance…Elaine Berenguer
Is there a conference coming for IFS users to participate?
How do I export a Business Reporter report from IFS so that non-IFS users can see it? When I run it and Distribute it to myself, it downloads, but if I send that to a person who does not have business reporter installed they get a blank workbook.
