Hello, is there a way to store dimensions of a part in IFS i.e the length and width of a part?

Hi everyone,I would like to automatically import files from an SFTP server to then automatically create a external supplier invoice.I've configured a new SFTP Reader in IFS Cloud to read files from an SFTP server. After setting up the reader, I created a Routing Rule with location-based conditions for the new SFTP Reader.The files are successfully being picked up by the reader, but they aren’t being connected to the routing rule I defined. Instead, when a file is imported into the SFTP, I see two error messages under Application Messages, and I suspect it’s because the routing rule isn’t being applied. Could there be a missing step in connecting the reader with the routing rule?Any insights or troubleshooting suggestions would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance!

Hello,Among the list of attributes that can be used in context mapping, we find the following elements:The first three are very clear. For “WAGECLASS” and “LEDGER,” in which screens can they be used? Could you please give me an example of how to use them?Thank you in advance.

Hi,We have suppliers with multiple bank accounts and multiple currencies.The supplier invoice specifies which account to use for payment…. When we process the payment order, we see that IFS chooses the standard bank account, and not the specific account which is defined on the invoice / in the xml file etc.We have turned OFF the choice to “use standard  payment method”,  but it still chooses default / standard bank account.Anyone else who has this problem ? We run IFS Cloud, 23R2 SU16

Is there a way to set the Default Search Settings globally for all screens to be able to change quickly: Run Search to "When Criteria is changed" or “Only when Search button pressed”Startup Behaviour to “Use Search” or “Run Latest Serch”Our users have to configure this for each and every screen individually, and since it’s done on some views only there is a struggle to know when to press search or not. This in addition to commonly using the search function upwards to 20 times a day per user makes it time consuming.There should still be a way to customize each and every view but also a default setting globally which you can either:a) reset the default for all viewsb) set the default on all pages that has not had their search settings setup Thanks in advance!

Hello,We are using IFS Cloud 24R1 and have created multiple configuration contexts for different sites and companies.We want to extract all the configuration changes made in these contexts — such as field visibility, required fields, and other property overrides — excluding the Global context.Is there a supported method (Quick Report, SQL query, or projection) to retrieve this data in bulk instead of checking each context manually?Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi Community,We are currently facing a challenge with our Build environment, which gets reset or vanishes after a certain time frame. As a result, we have to manually reconfigure key master data such as Company, Site, Supplier, and Customer each time.This manual setup is quite time-consuming and repetitive. We do have another environment with the required data already in place, and we are exploring possibilities to move or copy that data into the Build environment.Could you please advise if there is an easier or recommended method to achieve this data transfer efficiently?IFS Version- Cloud 24R1Thank you in advance for your support.

Unable to Approve or Preview Posting in Customer Offset and Mixed Payments.When there are payment term discounts assigned, we are unable to approve or preview posting in customer offsets or mixed payments.We are getting the following error message; ‘Field [CODE_A] is mandatory for Pay Accounting Row and requires a value.’    

We often use the Order Environment functionality in the build place. When ordering a DEV Environment, we always use the Customer Solution. We have had NO changes to our customer solution this year and all builds have been successful, until now. This week when ordering a DEV Environment, it fails to build. In the Environment Logs, we have logs ending in “error-mt-logs”. When we look into the logs we can only notice one difference between the previous successful builds and these failed builds.The Installer version and the global.helmChartVersion have changed.Previous builds as early as last week were using Installer version 23.3.14 and global.helmChartVersion 232.14.0Current failing builds are attempting to use Installer version 23.3.15 and global.helmChartVersion 232.15.0 These look to be incremented on each environment order so this could be a red herring and not a clue to the actual issue. Has anyone experienced this?Do we need to create support ticket?

Our Customer Service team members spend a great deal of time entering orders received by email. We use EDI for some larger customers, but we receive orders by email from many smaller customers. We are interested in solutions that could help automate data entry into IFS. Please share your experiences, ideas, and suggestions.

Community, I have an error message when I am trying to create shop order which I am not able to understand. any idea? 1043156 is a normal purchased part. below is the screenshot. 

Early in our upgrade project, some IFS consultants got us going with build home names like UB1-MWS-2124UB and UB1-MWS-2127UB. We’ve continued that naming convention with UB1-MWS-2213UB and UB1-MWS-2220UB, etc. Now I’d like to recreate the build home between service updates to roll up customizations. I’ve had better luck with this approach than I have with piecewise deliveries. Doing the build in one step is more DevOpsy, is a best practice, and reduces our downtime during the go-live weekend. I’d like to make sure our system continues to make sense to consultants and new hires. Is there an established or recommended naming convention for customized build homes?

In IFS Cloud/Aurena > Interim Order Header page, I can see that many status are available on this object (such as “Cancelled” for example)=> How to get this status ? How to cancel an Interim Header ?=> Does anyone have a diagram for interim header process (possible switch between status) ?Thanks.

One of my customers is currently on IFS Cloud version 23R2, and their technicians are using the MWO – Maintenance app for executing work tasks. The technicians are performing the expected sequence of actions in the app: Accepting the work task Starting the task Marking steps as done Reporting time Completing and returning the task to IFS Cloud However, the transactions generated by the technicians are appearing in the "Failed Transactions" page in IFS Cloud as shown in the screen shot.To investigate, I performed the same steps using my own account in a test environment. My transactions processed successfully and did not appear in the Failed Transactions page.Could you please advise on potential reasons why the technicians' transactions are failing while mine are not?Thank You
