I am trying to submit an invitation to the supplier from the sub contract. After the award dialog, I get a toast message that the invite has been sent. However, the email in the Supplier Contact is not receiving an email and I don’t see anything in Application Messages.SMTP is configured (we tested it using custom events and sending reports) The Supplier has an active contact with a valid email address The sub contract is in Submitted status and has lines The sub contract revision is activeAre there any other settings that I should check?

Hi IFS Community, This request relates to how cash discounts are applied.Currently, we have customer agreements that offer a 1% discount if payment is made within 10 days. This discount is intended to apply only to parts, not to freight charges. However, when payments are processed, IFS calculates the discount at the total invoice level, which includes freight. As a result, the discount is slightly overstated on each invoice.To correct this, the discount must be manually adjusted on an invoice-by-invoice basis, impacting approximately 300 to 500 invoice lines each week and taking about three hours to complete.Ideally, we would like to configure IFS so that the 1% discount is applied only to part lines and excludes freight charges. This would ensure that payment amounts match invoice totals accurately and eliminate the need for manual adjustments.Is it possible to achieve this in IFS Apps 10 IEE or IFS Cloud without requiring a system modification?

Hi all,I’m looking for some guidance on how to handle availability controls linked to MRB Head records.We recently introduced a new availability control rule (PACKAGING_QA) to block part movement. While reassigning dependencies, we found that the old rule (“Packaging QA”) is still referenced by several records in MRB Head, so there is no way for me to delete this old rule.The issue is that the MRB Case screens do not provide any option to update the Availability Control ID. However, querying the SQL view mrb_head confirms the old rule is still associated with those records. Has anyone encountered this before, or can advise on the correct IFS approach for this situation? Thanks

Hi all,I’m trying to GET the content of a Quick Report using the REST APIs. I can see the endpoints in API Explorer; but when I make the request in Postman, although the status code is 200, the payload is an empty array (see image).I’ve tried this with a couple of different endpoints:https://.../projection/v1/QuickReports.svc/QuickReport_36969() https://.../projection/v1/QuickReport36969.svc/VirtualOrderSqlReportsBoth give the same result. I’ve also tried with a couple of other Quick Reports - it’s not just that one.The endpoints are showing as ‘Active’ in API Explorer (and presumably I’d get an error if they weren’t anyway). Is there something else I need to do to ‘activate’ the APIs? The Quick Reports themselves are generated from an SQL statement, if that makes a difference (and to confirm - if I view the report directly, there is plenty of data to see!). 

Hi there!We are trying to post a cost entry via a manual voucher/project transaction (Eg: Against the project activity sequence JJ). We need the sales tax amount of the manual voucher/project transaction to be reflected under a separate project activity sequence number (Eg: Against the project activity sequence JJ2) in the COST tab of the project monitoring.For example, if materials worth $500 are consumed and a 10% sales tax is applicable, the material cost of $500 should be posted against the JJ project activity, while the sales tax amount should be posted separately against the JJ2 project activity.We would appreciate it if this requirement could be achieved using standard IFS functionality, preferably without moving toward a customization.Your support on this is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi All,We have an issue where in the forecasts we see zero demands generated for the parts on weekends. This is seen on 25R1 environment but not in the PROD which is 23R1.You will see although the quantity is zero it is picking this up on weekends especially in the July months and behaving strange. Any idea regarding the demand behavior and why is it happening here?In 25R1 UAT:In Live:  

Hi all,When I try to create a new work order using “Report a Problem” in both Tech Portal and Mobile, I receive the error below.Environment: EAM 25R2Errors observed:AttributeList OBJKEY not found in metadata ETag is missing in created entity NewWorkVirtual A JsonWebToken Principal can't be injected because one is not available. Protect the requesting resource so authentication occurs before the resource is accessed.Please find the full log attached.I am using the owner user.If I fill in the Object field, the problem occurs.However, the process works correctly if I leave the Object field empty on the last screen.Has anyone faced a similar issue, or does anyone know what could be causing this?Thanks. 

Hi community,We are using custom events in IFS Cloud to send REST calls to a custom-built middleware server. This works perfectly when have a smaller payload.However, when having a larger payload, this seems not to work at all. I found a similar post but it’s for BPA. We are not yet ready to move into BPA. Although same question for the Custom Event as well. Is there any maximum character limit we can send through CE REST calls? And are there any workarounds for that as well? Thank you.

Hi All, We recently installed PSO and set up necessary data to run it. We plant to use PSO for manual scheduling. A dataset is created as shown below.  Dataset is linked to some resources and service delivery units. Capacities were calculated and scheduling activity (marked as manually scheduled) types were created. After activating dataset, activities can be seen in the workbench but not resources.No errors are shown in application messages. But we cannot see resources in the workbench.  This exception can be seen also. Can you guide me to solve this?TIA.

I have a question about custom events in Cloud version 25R2. At present I am using 25R1 and I can execute Online SQL in an custom event action. As I understand it in 25R2 it will not be possible to execute Online SQL (e.g. “insert into [table name] “) but it will be possible to call a procedure in a custom package (and pass in a value to it).E.g. the procedure in the package I am calling in the screencap below will work in 25R2?Thank you.  

We run across the issue sometimes, that a shipment delivery note is not getting printed automatically even though it is set as an optional step in the shipment type: The issue is then that the main customer order (principal structure) remains in Released status instead of switching to delivered.

We use a setup with standard cost for manufactured parts and FIFO for purchased parts.We have two questions related to this.Is there a way to use current FIFO value for purchase components in std cost calculation for manufactured parts? Part numbers sometimes shift from purchased to manufactured and the other way around. You cannot change method unless you empty stock. Is there a way to change method without empty stock and lose original receipt date and last activity date?

In the Business Opportunity sub-view References, the Sales Quotation table is showing cells Description and Reference2. We can’t find these original cells in Sales Quotation view. What are these References cells intended use?  

There is an error message when I try to return a part from a work task that has a mandatory expiration date. Has anyone figured out a good way to handle. I have seen this happen in apps 10 through 25R2. 

Does anyone have any recommendations for how to handle sale and redemption of Gift Vouchers?  Scenario is that a Customer (Head Office) buy vouchers from us for their staff to redeem for goods on sale via our website.  Head Office have an account with us.  Staff also have an account with us.  Head office purchase of vouchers needs to hit Deferred Revenue.  Payment for the Staff orders is then drawn from this balance.  Thinking something like Head Office being “Invoicing Customer” on Staff Customer account.  Not sure how we’d then handle Staff buying further items, extra to the voucher, on the same account.  Ideally wouldn’t want Staff to have to have two accounts.  Any creative solutions gratefully received!ThanksLinda

I am setting up automatic order processing where I want to automate the steps from releasing the PR and up to a released PO.Found that when automatic order processing is handling the PR, it automatically creates one PO per line.If I do it manually (select lines, release and convert to PO) the lines are merged into one PO.There are a lot of smart people here, can aynone figure out why?And even better, find a workaround. I don’t want to send single line PO’s to suppliers.I’m on 25R2.

We are moving from IFS APPS 10 to IFS Cloud this summer.  The Report Generator is not available in IFS Cloud.  How do you run a trial balance in IFS Cloud?

Want to set up a default lobby on the main page for each user group we have -- cannot figure out how to do this

Is there a solution in IFS App10 for new France CTC requirement?

Dear Community,  Maybe you have any idea about the following issue we are facing. We are on IFS Apps10 UPD21 (and UPD27) We have 3 test IFS Application servers - TEST, UAT, As-Shipped. All of these are in the same VLAN. We are trying to install a new IFS Touch App server in the same VLAN. IFS TAS server: Windows Server 2022 StandardIFS App servers: Windows Server 2019 StandardThe new TAS test server is ready and all pre-required applications are installed. To be sure the connection works between any of our IFS test App server and the new TAS server we tried to purely log in to IEE in TAS server. The result is:  However we can log in to e.g.: the TEST App server Admin Console, and we also can log in to the Aurena client. But the IEE not start. All 3 test instance is available from every machine (also from different IFS Apps servers as well). We tried e.g.: check the TLS settings on the TAS server, we checked all firewall settings and opening - local and global. Have you ever seen this?
