I have reviewed the official documentation regarding Clean and Drop scripts in the upgrade process:https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/25r1/070_remote_deploy/040_upgrading_system/040_deploying_upgrade/040_clean_drop_scripts/I would like to clarify whether executing the Clean and Drop scripts is considered a mandatory step in all upgrade projects, or if it is optional and dependent on specific conditions (e.g. project scope, environment, type of customization).In actual implementation projects, are there cases where these scripts are intentionally not executed, and if so, what criteria or risks are typically considered when making that decision?Any guidance or best practices from the field would be appreciated.Thank you.
In 25R1, has anyone used the Document Macros functionality to extract a media image from an object in IFS and insert it into a Word document? I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on whether this is feasible.
Hi All,Just wanted to know from the community your feedback on the new scheduling workbench experience in IFS Cloud from 25R2 onwards. Please feel free to share your concerns and suggestions as we’d love to get your feedback on this. Thanks,Minindu
Hi all - We have an Expense Code set up for hotel stays for our field service techs. These stays are billed to our customers at a per diem rate. We use the expense code to reimburse our techs on their reports, but is there a way to add a “Quantity” to the Add Edit Expense Dialog, so we can easily pull the number of nights from the expense report, to add to the work order for the customer? Currently the techs are asked to put the number of nights in the description, but we are looking for a dedicated field that will be used for the sole purpose of “Hotel Nights”. We have added the custom attribute to the Expense Line on the page, but we cannot get the custom attribute to display in the Add/Edit expense dialog, when creating an expense. The goal is to enter the quantity of hotel nights in the Add/Edit Expense dialog, in order to populate to the Expense line when a new expense is added or edited.

Hi I am looking into a business scenario where we are using project inventory and as a business we need to capture the material consumption cost to the project.Reality material will be stored in a remote location as Project inventory.HTo capture the cost we are planning to issue the material to a workorder using “unplanned material issue” functionality.Work order is connected to the same project activity that the project inventory is connected to. But upon issue of the material via the work order and consumption cost is not moving to the Project monitoring page.I cannot identify how much is consumed at a given time.Anyone worked on a similar situation?Does IFS has a limitation to capture the consumption when project inventory is in used? ThanksChamath

Hello,When working in Customer Order Lines, I encounter an issue when attempting to change the “Wanted Delivery Date.”Each time I try to modify this field, the system displays the message shown in the attached image.Additionally, if I attempt to change the date multiple times, the error only appears during the first few attempts. After that, it no longer shows, even though I am performing the same action.Could you please help clarify what might be causing this behavior? Thank you

Hello dear IFS Community,I have an issue I can't seem to resolve. I have an order where the items have been delivered, and the rental started automatically.My order, status “livré” means “delivered” and “Facturé/fermé” means “invoiced/closed” (this was the line I returned after I ended the rental)My user wants to cancel it. I tried to end the rental at the exact date and time it started, but when I go back to the order, I can’t cancel it.Here you can see that I have ended all the rental linesI then tried to process a hardware return (in the test environment), but the order status changes to “Invoiced/Closed” if I do that.My questions are as follows:- How do I cancel an entire order for which the items have already been delivered?and- How do I cancel a single line in the order for which the items have been delivered? Thank you in advance for your answers
Hi Has anyone implemented a solution for RCT (Relevant Contracts Tax) for Ireland. It is similar to CIS in the UK, but the deductions also need to occur on the customer side as well in this scenario.For example, the customer will not pay us the full amount of the invoice, the difference needs to be reported to Irish Tax Authorities and invoice needs to be closed as well.And then there is the RCT report declaration to the Irish Tax Authorities.Thanks
In our Apps 10 environment we use MS Level 1 to enter the Master Schedule Forecast. We have the site manufacturing calendar set up for a 5-day work week starting on a Monday and ending on a Friday. We are able to enter a forecast date of a Saturday but not a Sunday. Why are we able to enter a forecast date of a Saturday when Saturday is not a workday? We also have an exception ID for our holiday days. We are also able to enter to enter a forecast date on a holiday day, why? The example below has allowed a forecast date of 7/1/2023, which is a Saturday. It also allowed a forecast date of 9/1/2023, which is on the holiday exception as a non-workday.
We have a super user within the business who needs the ability to view all background jobs but is currently restricted to seeing only the jobs they have submitted.We understand that granting the ADMINISTRATOR system privilege would allow them to access all background jobs; however, this would also provide them with excessive privileges.Is there an alternative way to grant them visibility of all background jobs without assigning full admin access? We are aware of the workaround involving IAL creation and Quick Reports, but aside from that, are there any other possible solutions that do not require customization?
Hi All, I am exploring the possibility of using ‘External Files’ to format a txt BACS file (format txt to txt) to send to Barclays bank without doing a MOD.However, I can see that ‘External Files’ interface has some limitations where you cannot even create a new ‘External File Type’.Does anyone have experience in creating a template for BACS transformation using External Files template? If yes, could you share any tips on how to achieve this.

We have setup a report based on a quick information source - Business Reporter and Quick Report. The query looks like below. The issue is - the results do not yield the end-user who is running the report. This must be an issue in HCM access, but haven’t found a cause yet. Appreciate if you can give us some pointers to look at. Thank you!
While reviewing inventory transactions for a consignment part, I came across the following transaction:COINVREV+ “Inventory Value Increase - Consignment”Could anyone please explain the functional flow that leads to the creation of this transaction?
Hello, We’re currently working through our upgrade from Apps 10 to IFS Cloud and our biggest pain point is really the IFS Cloud support for Crystal Reports. In Apps 10 we have a lot of custom right-mouse button menus to print reports (quick and operational). These RMBs also pass variables. It does not appear that this functionality is really there in IFS Cloud. This greatly diminishes our customer experience. I know that Arcwide has a potential solution out there, I just wanted to see what others were doing to achieve this. We can’t be the only customer feeling this. IFS VOICE OF CUSTOMER - this sucks and we hate it. Find a way to work with SAP and give us a long term solution. Crystal Reports has been a staple of the business world for a reason. We are accustomed to this functionality and want to keep it! Any help is greatly appreciated!Mike
