In IFS Developer Studio, I’ve got one module with a few entities and a couple utilities in it. The utilities depend on the entities, but when I try to create a topic environment, it’s not deploying in the correct order. The utility’s package fails because it’s created before the dependent entity’s view.!!!Error deploying database object!!!PACKAGE C_MY_UTILITY_API created with compilation errors at 28-MAY-25 22:07:16PLS-00201: identifier 'C_MY_OTHER_ENTITY' must be declared error at line no :12PL/SQL: Compilation unit analysis terminated error at line no :0I’ve been trying to play with the deploy.ini file to force the order the files are deployed, but this isn’t working. I’ve tried putting the files under CapMergeFiles and under CapMergeFilesLast, and they don’t seem to be honored.[CapMergeFiles]...File6=CMyOtherEntity.apiFile7=CMyOtherEntity.apy...[CapMergeFilesLast]File1=CMyUtility.apiFile2=CMyUtility.apy...What do you think I’m doing wrong?

Hello, is it possible to extend the data available in the Word Template Definition?I am using the Word Template Definition for the Employee File and would like to include additional data that is not currently available in the standard employeedata.htm file.Is there a way to extend the available data fields, for example by adding data from other entities to the generated HTML data source?
Hi everybody, In Italy, the Quarterly Tax Liquidation Report should report in the field VP2 - Totale operazioni attive (al netto dell'IVA) (Total sales) the net amount of proper sales, without considering the net amount of the entries generated by Reverse Charge purchases, but in field VP4 - IVA esigibile (Payable VAT) must contain the VAT amount of these operations. Had anyone found a way to generate the Quarterly Tax Liquidation Report in this way? Thank you,
Is there a way to design a GL Automatic Posting Rule around a Code Part Attribute? For example, we have an attribute of “Category” on our Project code parts. I’d like to set up a rule to post projects of a certain Category to a specific cost center. We have thousands of projects and only 5 attribute categories, so I’m hoping to define a rule around the attribute rather than at the individual project code part level. Appreciate any thoughts you have on this.
Hi,I have a number of lines in Project Revenue Postings that are stuck in Posting Status Valid.What is missing to get these to be transferred? The only selection available in this screen is Update Invoice Postings, which does not change anything.I am guessing some kind of BG job is missing?
Do we need to apply the Application service update or is it good enough to upgrade to the latest Framework service update released 17. September 2026? And can it be confirmed that the fix will be delivered on all version at 17. September 2026
Hello,We have noticed what appears to be a challenge with employee termination dates and Time Clocking in IFS Cloud.In Finland, an employee's last working day is typically the day when the employment is still active and the employee is expected to work and clock in. The employment relationship ends only after that day.However, when an employee's employment is ended in IFS Cloud with a specific end date, the employee is unable to clock in via Time Clocking on that same date.Example:Fixed-term employment ends on 31-Aug-2026. The employee should still be able to work and clock in on 31-Aug-2026. In IFS Cloud, the employee cannot clock in on that date because the employment appears to be considered inactive immediately on the end date.This creates a gap between local business/legal expectations and the system behavior.Questions:Is this the expected standard behavior in IFS Cloud? Is there a configuration setting that allows employees to remain active throughout the end date and become inac
I am trying to create a Report Rule with an Action to Check In To Document Management. When I print the document, I can get the system to create a Document based on the Document Class. I need to also connect to an LU. The LU is a Document Folder. If my Document Folder name is Supplier, how would I enter the information in the Connected LU field?The Documentation has the following for Connected LU:<u>ConnectedLU / KeyRef:</u> You can specify if the generated report should be attached to an application form as an attachment. In this case you have to specify the LU and key-value pair to uniquely identify an instance in the LU. For example, if you want to attach the 'Invoice' report, in to the 'Customer Invoice' form, you need to specify the LU as 'CustomerOrder" from the ConnectLU combobox and Invoice\_no as the key and a value for that key. You can hardcode a value or retrieve the value from a xpath.But I am unsure of what to enter…. Any help would be appreciated.Gregg
HelloThere are some new features in task planning in Demand Plan in IFS Cloud 25R2.I want schedule Rfresh IPR data. There are some new fields to fill out, but I haven't found any documentation on this topic.Can you help me please? Thanks.
I was trying to create a “Case” using My Call Center > New Case in IFS Cloud 26R1 environment. I observed a confusing behavior. I’ve added the test steps as below. Could you please look into them and let me know how can I solve this issue?Functional StepsI’ve used below steps to create a new case.Go to New Case using My Call Center (Relationship Management > My Call Center > New Case) added a Customer. For “Caller” section, “Caller Type” External is selected. External caller is selected from the LOV. Make the toggle “Connect Object” TRUE, selected the “Customer Order” as the object. I couldn’t enter the “Customer Order No”. The field “Customer Order” is not visible. After, I’ve done below steps. Changed the “Caller Type” to “Internal”. Selected the Customer Order as the object. Then “Customer Order” field is visible. Customer Order No is selected. At this point, the value in the “Caller” is not removed (refer below figure).After I changed the “Caller Type” value to “Extern
Hi Community, Does anyone have experience setting up calculated tax in the Travel Expense module? As far as I understand, it is only possible to set up the posting control TX2 – Travel Expense Tax. Unlike the INVOIC module, there do not seem to be equivalent posting controls for calculated tax such as IP9 – Tax Received, Calculated and IP10 – Tax Disbursed, Calculated. I have assigned a tax code for calculated tax to an expense code in the Expense Rule view. However, when I create and post an expense sheet using that expense code, no tax voucher lines are generated, and no transactions are created in the Tax Transactions view. This seems like a significant limitation for EU customers planning to use the Travel Expense module, as no tax voucher lines or tax transactions are created for VAT reporting purposes. Any insights or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
We have a customer facing an issue after a change in the company structure. As part of the reorganization, document access rules were changed for individual users. The result is that newly assigned users can access newly created documents, but they do not automatically gain access to older documents that were created before the organizational change.Questions:What is the recommended way to handle this situation in IFS Document Management? Is there a standard approach to grant newly assigned users access to historical documents without manually updating existing document access records? For a new implementation, would it be considered a best practice to assign document access through groups/roles rather than individual users, so that future organizational changes do not create the same issue and new group members automatically gain access to both existing and future documents?Any experience or recommendations would be appreciated.
How do we determine the file size of documents that have been uploaded into Cloud?We are using the DocMan module, and the Document Revisions. But I can't see an easy way to determine the size of files uploaded.
Hello community, We are in IFS Cloud 24R2 and we would like to upgrade to 25r2 Su9. I have a problem this yhe adjusted demand in forecast demand.The quantity in “adjusted demand” is changed by a process. I can't figure out why this happens or how to prevent it.This field is normally edited manuallyI get the impression that these changes are related to the qualification task. I came across a discussion about the adjusted demand, which can change depending on certain parameters. I’ve checked my database and everything’s fine.Thanks for you help
Is Group/Sum option in Advanced Search functionality available in IFS Cloud version? There are several topics posted covering this topic. As the below entries were few years old, I was hoping something might have changed in between. Can I know that, will this Group/Sum option included in upcoming cloud version. If it is already available, is there any material on how this is done?Missing Group/Sum option in IFS Cloud #GSDTECH# | IFS CommunityAdvanced search (i.e. group, count, sum, etc) | IFS Community One of IFS customers has raised this question again and In App9 & App10 user had the possibility to conduct advanced searches by grouping values and summarizing values in table views. They wants to know whether this will be included in a release in the near future. Business Impact: User will have to use longer methods to find information that is required. Thank You & Best Regards,
Hello, I am new to using IFS Cloud in the cloud. I have always used IFS on prem. I went through the necessary steps and have received the ability via ifsinfo and ifsdbreadonly to get into the database via sql developer to do some select statements. However, I am coming across the problem where I can only do a SELECT statement on some views and not others.EX: IFSAPP.CUSTOMER_ORDER returns nothing but IFSAPP.CUSTOMER_ORDER_ADDRESS returns normal information.There are many more examples.Why is this? Or how am I able to query all of the views without issue? Thanks, Eli
I’m trying to have Document Text from an Inventory Part display on the Analysis Results report. The Document Text contains specific information related to the inspection that needs to be shared with the end customer via the Analysis Results report. Current setup:I created an Output Type called “CoA” and connected it to Document 73 - Analysis Results: Added Document Text to the Inventory Part with the correct Output Type:I created a Control Plan - Inventory for this Inventory Part (same Inventory Part, Revision, Site), and completed an Analysis. The Document Text does not appear on the Analysis Results report. I tested this both in a customer 25R1 environment (with a custom Analysis Result report) and the IFS Partner Enablement 26R1 environment (with the default Analysis Result report). Is there something I did wrong in the setup? I can make this Document Text surface on other Reports. Thank you.
Hi,During an investigation, I came across a scenario where a Customer Order was created for a Phantom Part, and a Shop Order was also manually created for the same Phantom Part. Both orders were connected to a Project. After executing PMRP, I noticed that an MRP Action Proposal was generated with the message "Need Orders".What I find confusing is that the manually created Shop Order has a finish date earlier than the Customer Order need date, meaning it should be able to satisfy the demand. However, the MRP Action Proposal still indicates "Need Orders".Is this because the supply from the Phantom Part Shop Order itself is not considered by PMRP/MRP? I can see that supply has been generated for the component parts beneath the Phantom Part structure, which suggests that the Phantom Part is being exploded and planned at the component level.My question is: Why does the MRP Action Proposal display the message "Need Orders" even though there is a Shop Order for the Phantom Part that appears c
We are using IFS Cloud. The report Received - Not invoiced is only provides output in the Pdf format. I have Excel pulgin with Customer Ledger Age Analysis. I have download it and added to the Received -Not invoiced report definition. I have also deleted few columns which are coming from age analysis report. But the report columns not allowing me to adjust the name of the column headers and also the sequence of the columns also. How can I achieve it.
Hello, We are receiving an error ‘All created Analysis must be confirmed or cancelled before the operation no 10 is closed’ when trying to approve an operation on the shop floor workbench in IFS Cloud 25R2. This was the confirmed analysis associated with the operation. Why would this error be happening? Thank you. Thanks,Jay
IFS Cloud 25R1 SU12, on-prem, Manufacturing. No Constraint-Based Scheduling.We have an existing Work Center 1 (a press). We are adding Work Center 2 (a kitting station) that will physically sit inside Work Center 1's operating area. Both take machine and labor clocking. They are separate work centers for costing and capacity reporting, but because they share the same floor space they cannot run shop orders at the same time. Initially Work Center 2 will run on the opposite shift. Later they may be physically separated.Standard infinite and finite scheduling treat each work center as its own capacity pool, so nothing stops a planner or the scheduler from placing an operation on each at the same time. Today the only control is the planner watching for it.What we are testing: separate work time calendars per work center covering only their shift, with Finite capacity on both, so the scheduler cannot overlap them. Fallback is a Quick Report that flags overlapping open operations on the two
Has anyone encountered the following error when creating an Invoice Preview from a Request Work Task that contains an alternate customer on one of the sales lines?My expectation is that the system should generate two invoice previews, one for each customer, using the corresponding delivery address ID for each invoice.Interestingly, when following the same process through a Work Order -Work Task, the system successfully creates two invoice previews without any errors for the same customers.Due to this error, when a Supplier Warranty exists and the supplier is added as an alternate customer, it becomes impossible to create the invoice preview.Is this a known bug, or could I be missing a configuration or setup step related to alternate customers and customer order addresses in the Request Work Task process?Thanks
Hello everyone,I would like to know what these two types of Quick Report in IFS Cloud correspond to : I believe they were present in IFS Applications 10... are they now deprecated?Thank you.
Hello,We are manufacturing continuously a mesh.To produce this I am using a wire (part set up with kg), from which I am cutting it into pieces and further welding those pieces together to obtain a final product.Current BOM:Wire [kg] → assigned to cutting operation At this level we are providing at the custom field number of pieces that shall be cutted from the wire Current Routing:Cutting WeldingWe would like to display on the Shop Order Work Instruction Report an assignment of the materials to the operation so the operators know how many pieces of the wire go into the welding operation. So ideally:Cutting - display of wire Welding - display of wire (but no consumption and no costs, as the same wire was already processed in the operation above).As currently wire is assigned to the cutting operation, I am not able to reassign the same wire at the operation of welding displaying the same information as at the cutting.I had tried to set up a separate material line using the same wire p
