Finalize Shipment menu option in IFS10

We are transitioning from IFS9 to IFS10 and are wondering what the equivalent process steps are to Finalize Shipment.  We do not see the menu option when we RMB in the shipment header or the line.Searching presentation objects by component and database objects no “finalize” elements are returned, but are available in IFS9 when doing similar search.Is it now a separate process, different term? Thank You

Data Migration SYNCDETAILS Rule

Has anyone successfully used the SYNCDETAILS Rule in a Migration Job? I made the header fields in my file the same what shows in to “Column Name” in File Mapping but when I unpack the file I get Column “xxxx” does not exist.  I am using a csv with double quotes as the Column Embrace and would expect this to apply to the headings as well.

The slider is not a checkbox, how to describe it. Style question.

We don’t have checkboxes in Cloud, we have slides.  Our documentation is riddled with the wording that refers to the checkbox.  When we used to use checkboxes, we would say “Check Receive Application”.What is the correct name for this? Is it a slide button?  Or is it a slider?How do we refer to it, would we say “Set Receive Application” to TRUE.  Or, maybe, we should say “Enable Receive Application”?   Example slide button.

Cloud Documentation Search / Query Language Not Working

I’ve noticed that, unless you search for something without the need for any operators or luck, you now get nothing returned as search documentation results. This happens with all available IFS Cloud Documentation and makes it realllly hard to find anything unless you’re already on the application page when seeking page help. Has this been happening all along? We still aren’t live, but pretty sure I’m not mistaken. Type in Customer Invoice and you’ll get this:But Customer OR Invoice… nothing. Additional context:The online help documentation query language states the “text search engine allows queries to be formed from arbitrary Boolean expressions containing the keywords AND, OR, and NOT.For example:information retrieval: finds documents containing 'information' and 'retrieval'information and retrieval: same as aboveinformation or retrieval: finds documents containing either 'information' or 'retrieval'information not retrieval: finds documents containing 'information' but not 'retrieva

Fuel inventory and object costs

We are a mining and ready mix operation with approximately 200 mobile pieces of equipment.  In our previous fleet management system, we could download fuel tickets as either ROAD (filled up at a gas station using a card) or Company (filled up at one of our fuel locations on site that store inventory.This was not done as a work order, but essentially a material requisition at the object level.Is anyone aware of any capability within IFS that allows this?  We have been told that it will require work orders to be completed, just to charge fuel to an object.We want to be able to track to the object so we can identify costs properly and trends, such as an object using more fuel than standard.

Customer wants to improve the capabilities in tracked structure solution in Shop Floor Workbench-IFS Cloud

Hi community,Looking for your suggestions on the following.One of IFS customer has raise their concern as the tracked structure solution in Shop Floor Workbench in IFS Cloud is not providing the needed support for them.Their production is based on traceability (Lot/Batch or Serial No) and every product produced by the company is marked with product number and serial/lot batch. Therefore, getting a readable reference on the serials produced in a Shop Order is important to their production.In IFS Cloud, scaling a Shop order in lot size or having a serial contain a lot of sub materials/assemblies has made the tracked structure unreadable to the customer.Refer to the following screen capture from IFS Cloud,In order to get to the needed information in IFS Cloud they have to scroll down and marking 25 unique serials.The customer requirement is to have the same capabilities as they had in Apps9 since it gives the following benefits to the customerEasy view the serials Improves the navigation

Best maintenance calendar setup for both corrective and preventive action

I would like to use the same calendar (MAINT: Off on Saturdays and Sundays) for all maintenance organizations. It is used for both corrective maintenance and PM actions. However, there is an exception for preventive maintenance as the work is carried out according to a 24/7 calendar every day of the year.When I use a maintenance organization on a PM action and add a new calendar (MAINTPREV: 365/24/7) in the PM action trigger, the calendar of the maintenance organization takes precedence.The solution I found is to create dedicated maintenance organizations for PM actions with a MAINTPREV calendar. However, this is very cumbersome because there are more than 20 sites, and each site has 10 maintenance organizations.I am looking for a solution that uses only one calendar (MAINT) for all maintenance organizations but calculates the dates of PM lines according to a 365/24/7 calendar.

Rotable Part Pool: M151 or M139

Hi IFS community,I am using IFS Cloud to setup Rotable Part Pool and have setup the Posting Control of M151(according to IFS documentation), of which to set Account and Fixed Asset Code Part to use AC2 - Pre Posting. So far so good, since Fixed Asset is created with Part Connection Established. However, the Inventory Transaction History displayed the usage of M139 instead of M151 and the Code Part Demand of account 028200 has Fixed Asset as Mandatory.Can you help me out to solve this riddle, please? Many thanks!

Revenue capitalization runs on error if no revenues incurred in the period

Hello,We have an issue with revenue caiptalization. If we start a project, costs begin to arise, but revenues only later. So in the first months, we have only costs incurred, but no revenues. If I try to run periodical capitalization, the system throws an error message: “There are no voucher rows in current voucher”.This being an error message, we cannot proceed to the next step for revenue recognition, and the whole process stops. Is there a setting to solve this problem?Currently, we are applying a workaround making a manual entry of value 0 and quantity 0,01 for an open project for the current period, and then it works. But this solution is quite unprofessional and this way the settlement process is not so smooth.Details:IFS 8Periodical posting methodProject type:Capitalize RevenueRev. Rec. method:POC Income firstPOC method:Actual costRevision accounting:catch up Any help would be appreciated.Thanks.

customer payment rollback

 HI , Voucher 2024000260 is a wrong customer payment which was rolled back from voucher 2024000261But the double entries have not parked correctly to reverse the original payment, See account 22110 had credited and debited by posting IP2 and PP10. Any idea how this happened and still this amount shown in the customer payment, how can this be corrected.  And check  vouchers 2024000262 and 2024000263 for the payment and for the roll back those look fine.

Group Consolidation - Automate intercompany elimination on unsold stocks

Through elimination rules, IFS can automatically eliminate AP & AR. Is there an automatic way to eliminate the profit from unsold stock? Any improvements introduced in Cloud?Example: Subsidiary A sells a stock worth of $100 @ $120 (keeping a margin of $20) to subsidiary B. The selling price of the stock in subsidiary B is $150. Company B sells 75% of the stock to 3rd party (150*.75=112.5). How can we eliminate the profit of unsold stock in IFS?

Posting Control Question

Good Morning, We are currently reviewing our posting controls in Apps 10 EE and have found a situation we are questioning.  We require pre-posting on PO’s not tied to an inventory part and a Work Order.  While reviewing the posting controls called Pre-Accounting, we have noticed they have never been triggered.   First question - should they be?Second question - If we remove the posting controls, would it cause errors in the posting analysis? Thanks

Error importing large MS Project into IFS Cloud

Hello,We are trying to test IFS Cloud Project Management features based on some of our large-scale project work for next year.  I’ve created a 30,000 task project in Microsoft project and I’m trying to import it into IFS.  If I keep trimming down the tasks of the project, I can eventually get it to import.  It usually works somewhere below 1000 tasks.   (Note: operations are not related to tasks.)  Is there some kind of limit setting that we can adjust to get this to work?Error: The current change set contains too many operations. Only change sets with a maximum number of ‘1000’ operations are allowed. Does someone know where we might be missing a setting?  Is it in IFS or MSProject? Thank you,Joann
