It is described in the docs to some extent how raise the log level to DEBUG from the default INFO here:https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/foundation1/050_development/022_user_interface/030_aurena_dev/140_resources/100_ODP/400_logging/ I tried that, but it still does not log the actual contents of the request and response. How can that be done?
Hello,Are there plans to allow users to add new data sources in IFS Report Studio? (for standard reports).I’ve seen that QuickSights Reports can be based on custom data sources (Query Designer), but what about standard reports?Thank you!

Hi all,the “Return Travel” function when completing a RWT in the MWO Service Classic App, creates an entry in the “Times” Action Tab and in the Work Task Clockings in IFS Cloud.But the Time Report does not show up in the Sales Lines of the RWT and has no Transaction ID in the clockings. The problem is, that the missing Sales Line leads to incorrect invoicing and lost revenue, when the return travel is not properly displayed.Additionally it is not possible to assign a default Time Type to the Return Travel clocking.Can you please have a look at this or advise how to use it correctly, if the mistake is on my side.An easy solution for us specifically would be the possibility to simply report times in the “Time” Action tab for future dates.Thanks,Chris

Dear IFS Community, I need your help. Our customer needs a unique (or maybe not so unique) setup in our project management resp. financial project. The figures are.EstimatesSales: 3000Costs: 2000Margin: 1000The margin in %: 66,67 %. Project type is: Capitalize Expenses Revenue Recognition Method is: Actual Revenue. Contribution Margin: 0%. In the Periodical Capitalization posting, costs and the calculated costs (from sales) will be posted to unfinished goods vs. WIP. So far so good. But the problem is, if a customer invoice has been posted with sales from 2000, IFS should reverse the proportionally costs from WIP against unfinished goods. In our example should it be the 66,67 % from the 2000 EUR Sales = 1333,4 EUR. Calculation:Booked sales: 2000 EUR * 66,67% = 1333,4 EURThe cost of sales with 1333,34 should be reversed from the WIP accruals.IS THIS POSSIBLE IN IFS? And IF this is possible, what are the correct setups? Second point is that if we have booked real costs about 1200 EUR but

Hi Experts, In FSM6.30 → PSO 6.14 integration, I noticed the person skills are not sent when expiry date is updated.Ex: I update a person skill record’s expiry date in FSM side. But it was not update in PSO Resource planner. But when I update the same person skill record’s skill, the update is sent to PSO.Is it the intended baseline behavior? or could that be an issue in this solution/environment?Appreciate your help.Thanks,Sanjeewa
Overview While updating the system in IFS Cloud to a newer version, existing configurations could get impacted. After applying a delivery in IFS Cloud such as a Release Update, Service Update, or delivering tailored content, it is important to verify that existing configurations remain valid. The Configuration Analyzer is a tool that analyzes and validates configurations in the target environment and identifies issues in configurations introduced by such deliveries. Typical issues are when a configuration references another object that is missing, renamed or in an invalid state after the update. Detecting these issues early helps prevent runtime errors and ensures system stability after delivery of updates or tailored content such as customizations or configurations. When and where should you use the Configuration Analyzer? It is recommended to run the configuration analyzer while applying: A release update A service update Some tailored content Configuration Analyzer can be used i

Looking for a way to have a section stay un-collapsed within a dialog box. When user reports time from the work assignment team they keep forgetting the demand line no because the section is collapsed. we want to make the field mandatory if possible and keep the section uncollapsed at all times. Is it possible ?
Hello. I am new to IFS (several weeks) and am looking to implement Visual Planning. One of the key aspects of successfully maximizing machine load is to start the set up of one job while the previous job is finishing. To do this, I need visibility into the setup times of each job. We do not want more than one operation to plan by, so the goal is to get the visual on setup within the bar representing the total time on the job. Is there a way to do this?
On the Purchase Order screen:Where can I find how TTL PO Cost (purchase_order.total_cost) is calculated? Under Goods and Services, how is Total Cost (purchase_gns.total_cost) calculated? Under Goods and Services, how is PO Cost (purchase_gns.po_cost) calculated?
Hi everybody,in IFS10 we have scheduled task to calculate purchase costs (latest purchase cost). How to set it up in IFS Cloud?I tried to set it up, but I don’t know the syntax for ATTRIB_ parameter in IFSCloud. When I copy the argument from background job (when you run it manually), it doesn’t work. I am aware of other ticket saying it is not possible even in APPS10, but it definitely works, so I just want to double check. Thansk a lot.Jan
We have a customer running IFS Cloud 23R2 who encountered the following scenario.Their Preventive Maintenance (PM) plans are configured with Calendar + Criteria, where both Performed Date and Performed Value are considered.In one instance, an incorrect measurement was entered for an object. This triggered the Condition-Based PM plan line and generated a Work Order. The Work Order was subsequently cancelled, and the incorrect measurement was invalidated/marked as incorrect.However, the issue is that the PM plan continues to generate Work Orders, since the Generation Value on the PM Plan was not updated after correcting the measurement.The current workaround is to regenerate the PM plan, which resolves the issue.Although this is an infrequent scenario, the customer manages thousands of PM plans, and this situation occurs occasionally, requiring manual intervention each time.We would appreciate guidance on the following: What is the exact background job/process that updates active PM plan
Hi, Could you please assist in identifying the correct process within IFS Service Management to address the following business requirement?Requirement:The business needs to initiate maintenance work only after receiving an advance payment (e.g., 50%) from the total quoted amount.Currently, we are using Service Quotation as the starting point. However, we do not see an option to create a Customer Order directly from the service quotation or from the early stages of associated Request / Request Work Task.While it is possible to create a Request from a Customer Order, we observed that:The Request Task sales lines and Customer Order lines do not appear to have a direct relationship This makes it difficult to manage advance payments and link them to the service execution and final invoicingCould you please advise:What is the recommended standard approach in IFS to create a Customer Order in early stages of the Request? Is there any standard way to link Service Quotation → Customer Order → R
Users are able to by-pass forms in a workflow if they make certain selections and end up having the ability to complete an order. Is there a particular field this selection is being identified with, in order to key off of this selection and build logic around for post-processing? Thank you.
How can I add a No-cost, No-labor operation to a shop order? I want to keep track of issues like repainting a unit or clean or repairing an item before it is received into inventory, but adding an opertion with no costs linked to the operation?I need help.Thsnk you,
Hello, We have two sites, Site A and Site B set up in a planning network. Both sites A and B can purchase Part 1 from an external supplier. The Site A internal supplier is setup as a multi-site planned supplier for Part 1 on the internal Supplier for Purchase Part on Site B. If Site B has demand for Part 1 and has no on-hand quantity, the planning network MRP is creating a purchase requisition from the external supplier even though we have sufficient on-hand quantity at Site A to fulfil the demand at Site B.Is this standard behavior? Is there a way to change this to have the planning network MRP recognize the available stock in Site A and create an internal distribution order instead of an external purchase requisition? The external supplier is the primary supplier on both sites and should stay that way, but if stock is available at the other site, we’d like to use that rather than buying more. Thanks for your help,Dylan
I created an ACP on the MIG and put my workflow into this package.The workflow has 6 versions.Workflow with 6 versionsI’ve imported the ACP into TST, but it’s only showing me version 6.Why? I need the other versions also in my test envirmoment.
We have created thousands of request with given PlannedStart and PlannedFinish.Via API-Call we want to clear these both fields and set the other fieldsjson = $"{{\n"; json += $" \"PlannedStart\" : \"\" , ";json += $" \"PlannedFinish\" : \"\" , ";json += $" \"EarliestStart\" : \"{EarliestStart}\" , ";json += $" \"LatestStart\" : \"{LatestStart}\" , ";json += $" \"LatestFinish\" : \"{LatestFinish}\" , ";json += $" \"Duration\" : {Duration} , ";json += $" \"Objsite\" : \"{Objsite}\" ";json += $"\n}}";endpoint = $"main/ifsapplications/projection/v1/WorkTaskServiceHandling.svc/JtTaskSet(TaskSeq={TaskSeq})";response = await Rest.PATCH(endpoint!, json, "", eTagTask); The response throws an error, because PlannedStart and PlannedFinish are not set.Example:In the above example: Set earliestStart to 11:00, LatestStart to 15:00, LatestFinish to 17:00 on the same day. The goal behind is: make the requests (tasks) more flexible by
Hi All,With regards to the new CBAM requirements coming into affect from Oct 2023, is there presently, a defined documented solution for this or is IFS planning to provide a solution (CBAM Reporting) for its customers?
Hi Everyone, We have been told via BSI audit that we need to capture manufacturing tooling used (serialised and that it’s calibrated) per part used. We have tested configuratons in IFS and reporting tooling- but we’ve hit a couple of snags.Firstly- we can report an operation fully without reporting a tool used even though it assigned to an operation. Does anyone know of a way to make this mandatory? Secondly- It will allow us to use non-calibrated tools. It does give us a warning but we’d like for it stop the operator reporting using it. Is that possible? Any advice/ideas will be greatly appreciated! ThanksAlex
We’ve run into an issue where a cancelled holiday absence is still being counted in the employee’s Absence Limit Day usage. The system shows 19 days used, but it should be 11, because one of the absences was cancelled.I’ve checked the absence records and the API logic, and it looks like the usage isn’t being recalculated after the cancellation. Does anyone know how to trigger an absence recalculation in Apps 10, or how to correct the used‑days value?If I right click on the cancelled line Absence details it only seems to populate with some data but seems to be missing Period information? Screenshots below:Any guidance would be appreciated.
