Hello Community,I have a quick question regarding the Generate Invoice Preview function.We recently observed that when generating an invoice preview with the “Merge by Sales Part” checkbox selected, the preview is being created with Grouped By Level: Work Order. Previously, this field remained blank and the invoice preview was not grouped by Work Order.The customer has recently upgraded to Apps 10 UPD 28, and we are trying to determine whether this is due to a change in functionality introduced in the upgrade, or if there is any basic configuration/data setup required to prevent grouping at the Work Order level. I would highly appreciate any insights or comments from the community.Thank you.Aravinda

Is there a way to track changes to permission sets in the history log in IFS Cloud 25R1? This feature was available in Apps 10.

Hello, I hope you are well.In location - Warehouse Management>Financial Control>Analysis>Inventory Value per Period, under the Value by Cost Level and Location Group tab, in the Quantity column, there is a value that is showing as negative for a certain part number. I have already performed all the analyses to find out why it is showing as negative. When summing the total quantity in the column, this value is exactly what is in stock.Does anyone have any idea how I can find out where this negative value is coming from?

Our purchasing department would like to know if it is intended that the Purchase Order Lines overview screen is not editable? I’m in IT so I have access to everything and I can’t modify this screen. My reasoning I gave her that you can’t do mass changes on this (e.g. change all the dates or change the inspection criteria) is because this view PURCHASE_ORDER_LINES_ALL combines both no part order lines and part order lines views. So maybe because of this and no part order lines having different primary keys than part order lines that maybe this is why? If someone could give me a reason or tell me that this screen is editable and I’m missing something, that would be very helpful.

Has anyone found a way around editing PO lines in the Purchase Order Lines window?I specifically want to update the Planned Receipt Date of the line.I enabled the edit using the page designer but the save option is not enabled after the edit.  

Hi all,When using Mass Update Shop Order Structures to update shop orders, I would like to know where I can see exactly which changes were made to the shop orders by this mass update.Is there any specific log or history that shows the old and new values for the updated material lines? These updates cannot be found in the shop order history, I can only find the manual changed materials/ routings. Also I dont see the changes records in the background job information.  Kind regards, Willem

We have customer accounts in one company that are the child of an account in another company.  How do we need to set up a customer agreement for the parent so that the children will inherit that pricing?

Summary of issue:I have a user interaction workflow on adding/editing an expense line -> it gets triggered on a projection ExpenseSheetHandling "AddOtherExpense" - since we want the user to add a value to a field as soon as they add/edit an expense line. After the user clicks on "save" in the IFS dialog box, it closes and another dialog box pops up asking the user to enter a value for a field (user interaction workflow) ← This is the expected behavior that happens most of the time. When it doesn't work after the user clicks on “save” in the IFS dialog box, the save button turns grey and the dialog box does not close. the user interaction dialog box does not pop up. they need to refresh the page and "edit" the line that was added. For debugging - I watched the workflow and was able to capture a JSON payload that this happened to. When I use the payload in the the Workflow designer page - no error occurs and it works as intended.In DevTools - When this issue happens, the page is stu

Hi, is there anyway to stop a new manual supplier invoice going straight to paid/posted when it has 0 value? we was able to do this in apps 9 but now cloud uses the new manual supplier invoice wizard im unsure how to get around this. Thanks  

We have recently upgraded to APS10 UPD14 and experiencing the following:  IFS Path: Financials > Supplier Invoice > Manual Supplier Invoice When saving an invoice that the gross amount is $0.00, there is a pop-up box stating "A zero value invoice will be created and Invoice will get PaidPosted. Do you want to continue?"  When you click yes, the status should go to PaidPosted. When the $0.00 invoice involves matching a line on the PO, we get the "A zero value invoice..." message and click "Yes" but the status goes to Preliminary and doesn't get posted.  It's confusing to have different results than what the message states will happen. I have attached screenshots of the message and result.  Is there a setting that isn’t configured correctly or a reason why the invoice is not going to status paid posted and ending up preliminary?

Hi, I’m working on an integration to automatically create and attach documents to invoices. My approach is to send the PDF as a Base64-encoded string wrapped in a CDATA section within an XML file. This works fine for smaller files, the document is created and attached correctly. However, with larger files, the document becomes corrupted and cannot be opened. Does anyone have an idea what might be causing this? Code segment I used to write datafile_data_ := Plsqlap_Document_API.Get_Blob_Value(document_, 'FILE_DATA', element_); Sample XML file<INVOICE_STRUCTURE xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"    xmlns="urn:ifsworld-com:schemas:manual_supplier_invoice_creation_request">    <MSG_ID>260325001</MSG_ID>    <SUPPLIER_INVOICES>        <INVOICE>            <INVOICE_ID>NW087</INVOICE_ID>            <FILE_NAME>CDN Controls Ltd - NW073 - 97650</FILE_NAME>            <FILE_DATA><![CDATA[JVBERi0xLjcNCiWhs8XXDQoxIDAgb

We are using BPA Workflows in IFS Cloud version 25R2 for some of our integrations. We are having trouble with some of our workflows that sends “large” payloads to an external REST API.Here I am trying to use an IFS REST call task to send a message to our integration with a payload that is approximately 20-50kB. In my initial version of the workflow the message is sent, but the workflow ends with the error: An exception occurred in the persistence layer. Please check the server logs for a detailed message and the entire exception stack trace.Initial IFS REST call configurationI have a script task with the following java script for creating the request body://Generate request bodyvar payload= { AgreementId:execution.getVariable("AgreementId"), CustomerId: execution.getVariable("CustomerNo"), ValidCustomers: execution.getVariable("ValidCustomers") || [], State: execution.getVariable("AgreementStatus"), ValidFrom: execution.getVariable("AgreementValidFrom"), ValidUntil: executi

Hello!Does anyone know if there is a change in Cloud from apps9 in the behaviour on Purchase Order Confirmation Reminders?

Has anyone tested Einvoice response message to process CTC invoices ?

Hi,Is there a way to mass close shop orders that are still open in IFS Cloud? Specifically, there are older shop orders in Started or Parked status that are already completed in terms of quantity, or cannot be closed due to issues such as control plan errors.These shop orders need to be closed without generating additional system transactions, as that could impact financial records.If mass closing is not possible, deleting the shop orders would also be acceptable.I have already checked the “Mass Delete Shop Orders and Clockings” option; however, it requires the shop orders to be either Cancelled or Closed before they can be processed.Thank You.

Hello everybody! When using the Time Registration window in IFS Cloud, it is possible to create project activity shortcuts and assign a Shortcut Name, which is then displayed on the screen.We have noticed that the Shortcut Name can be defined when the shortcut is created, but it cannot be changed afterwards. The only available options seem to be deleting and recreating the shortcut.​@IFS RD Product Management What is the intended or recommended use of the Shortcut Name field? Is it by design that the name cannot be edited after creation? Are there any best practices for managing or updating shortcut names without deleting and recreating them?Thank you for your clarification. Best regardsTatjana

25.1.2Using the same output type for each:I have document text connected to a product structure header. This carries through to the shop order, and it is visible on the Shop Order Report and Work Instruction Report (the standard, out-of-the-box reports). I have document text connected to a product structure component line. This carries through to the shop order, and it is visible on the Shop Order Report and Work Instruction Report. I have document text connected to a product structure alternate. This does not carry through to the shop order, it is not visible on the Shop Order Report, but it is visible on the Work Instruction Report.Why is document text on a product structure alternate not visible at the shop order or on the shop order report?

Has anyone resolved the issue in IFS Cloud of seeing the count of attached documents, such as on an overview screen, without adding a custom field?  Similar to this post for Aurena, but in a different area of the application and on Cloud.

Hello all, I’ve been testing the Skip Lot on Purchasing Control Plans, and it does appear to be working, but the help is unclear about how some of the setup is applied and what the registration of some results means. I have entered three Purchase Orders of 100 each and I’m attempting to test the Attribute Skip Lot. I believe I have it setup as I’ve been attempting to enter nonconformitites and the sample qty has gone from 13 to 20 on the third PO. However, I’m unsure on the analysis result what the two mandatory fields are actually asking for. The help isn’t clear. I have the following acceptance sampling setup on the Purch Control Plan and Trigger:On the SFPP, I have not configured anything for Inspection Info, I’m assuming this is not needed:Any guidance on if my current setup is correct, or the proper way to interpret the Skip Lot setup would be greatly appreciated. 

Hello! Could you please advise how we can populate the used cost field for sub contract line items in project connections/ project forecast. For POs this field is populated when the receipt is recorded. But for sub-contracts it does not populate when the valuation is certified even though the certified amount gets removed from the committed cost figure. Appreciate any input on this. Thank you!
