Enabling “Negative On-Hand Allowed” on the inventory part is a mandatory prerequisite for using the Catch Unit feature.However, during testing:configured an inventory part with Catch Unit enabled  The “Negative On-Hand Allowed” option was not enabled  I successfully completed the full Order-to-Cash process (CO → Shop Order → CO Delivery → Invoicing)No validation, warning, or error was triggered at any stage of the process.Concern:This behavior appears to contradict the documentation, which states that the setting is required.Is the “Negative On-Hand Allowed” parameter truly mandatory for Catch Unit usage? If yes, in which specific scenarios is it enforced? If not, should the documentation be updated to reflect the actual system behavior?Please advise on whether this is expected behavior or a documentation inconsistency.

Hello,In MWO service classic application, when we click on the main menu as shown below, it adjusts the layout of the dashboard screens to the right and displays the main menu list. It also had the ability to display the icons for the users to view the list without clicking on the menu.In the new MWO service application, the icons are not displayed directly in the screen and can be viewed only when the main menu is clicked. Also, the dashboard screen is not adjusted but the main menu overlaps with the screen as shown below. Please let me know if we will have the same layout features from the classic application mentioned above in the new MWO service application in the future updates. 

Hi,When using expressorders (order code 5) - Is there in IFS Cloud (25R1) a way to ensure that all lines on a purchase requisition are converted to PO lines before the order is printed / sent out, even if the PR lines are authorized at different points of time?We have got this to work in IFS 10, but in IFS Cloud the first line is printed / sent out as soon as it has been converted.Thanks in advance!JohanNB! We have some customized functionality in this area that may interfere.

Community,How to fix below error?I am trying to connect a Repair Work Order to a superior work order which is connected to a project, i got below error message. Same error message is also prompted when I am trying to connect the same Repair Work Order to the project using Project Connections. see below error. 

We have a part which is usually purchased, but occasionally has to be manufactured. How do we set the Cost Template so it picks up both manufacturing and purchase order info. 

We are currently implementing a workflow that allows us to create customer sales orders. Tests on a small scale are okay and we are happy.However, as soon as we move to a larger scale, the workflow crashes without an error.The dataset is composed of the same order that we create X times, so we know that we have no functional problems because iterating 30 creations, for example, is okay, but not 100.We have already limited the return of the projection as much as possible by using $select to retrieve only the desired columns.We have not exceeded the line reading limit per projection (10.000) (at most we read 5000 lines) and we don't think we have a problem with CASCADE_LIMIT because we set it to 250,000 for testing.We are more inclined towards a memory/CPU/space limit for the one of the pods.Do you have any knowledge of documentation or experience to parameterize the recommended memory or CPU or disk size? ​@dsj ​@kamnlk ​@IFS RD Product Management  Thank’s in advance 

Hi, We are looking at an integration with Boomi on Apps10. Using both the IFS and Generic REST connector we have an issue on the first Patch after it has not been used for between 6-10 hours, where it errors, but then retries and the transaction still happns.Does any one have experience of the ‘wake up’ process of the connector. It only happens on one specific process, which is fine at all other times.

Hi All, We can see associated Workflow Configuration of an assignment from MWO. However, this information is not visible in IFS cloud. I think that the ideal place to appear this is the Assignment tab of a Request Task.Further, “Surveys and Answers” are only visible once technician answer to specific surveys. Did  anyone try to make this information visible in IFS cloud at certain place? Any work around other than configuration/customization?Customer Need: Dispatcher/Planner needs to see what are the triggered configurations and survey from the Backoffice.TIA.

Hi All,Please let us know what the meaning of Invalid Task Group, we are getting this multiple services 

When using the 23R2 Dispatch Console for manual resource assignment for a customer who does not use PSO and has 4000 resources, is it advisable to use multiple datasets?  What advantage would the use of multiple datasets bring without PSO?  Is there is a concern that so many resources under one dataset would cause performance issues in the Dispatch Console even without using PSO?  Couldn’t filters on Resource Group and Region sufficiently limit the number or resources hitting the Dispatch Console even with all 4000 resources in one dataset?

Hi We just received the message from a customer that certain Payment Institutes dont accept payment files with the Pain.001.001.003 anymore. will there be a new format available soon for Pain.001.001.009.?I know that Camt054 version 4 was released with update 15 app10 

In 25R1, I am trying to add a comment to an Outwards Transmittal. I cannot figure out how to do this, The Steps I followed are :1.Create Document Transmittal 2.Connected to a Project3.Entered Expected Send Date and Expected Latest comment days as today4.Connected Report to Transmittal5.In the Files to download section , Original and Comment files were enabled6.Added Documents to the Transmittal7.Documents were Quick Released8.Changed the Status of the Transmittal to Sent9.Added Acknowledgment10.Status was changed to Acknowledgement Received11.??? Need to add Comment - NOT SURE HOW TO DO THIS ?  

Out of curiosity, do any of you out there utilize Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) integration with IFS?  We are currently on IFS9UPD10, but are preparing to go to Cloud 25R2, and any information on this would be useful.  As you can imagine, it is a bit hard to find! Thank you in advance.

Dear experts,We're trying to add a new column to the 'Invoice' entity using the Developer Studio. During deployment, we encountered an error: "IFSAPP.INVOICE_API" has errorsORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called: "IFSAPP.INVOICE_API"ORA-06512:. This error indicates that the new column wasn't automatically included in the 'invoice_rec_' record type within the 'INVOICE_API' package.To work around this, we manually modified ('overridden') the “invoice_rec_”record type to include the new column. While this allowed the entity to deploy successfully, we're now encountering a new error in the 'INV_PROCESSING_TYPE_UTIL_API': 'ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small' in the customer invoice window. We're concerned about potential inconsistencies that may arise on the screen. Is this behavior a bug, or are we not advised to add new columns to the 'invoice_tab' table?Any insights or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hello, When an E-invoice is refused (like cycle 210 - Refused), legally in France localization, it means the invoice is not valid and should be cancelled.It seems that it doesn’t affect the ability to pay the invoice. Is that a normal behaviour ? My understanding was that the invoice should be cancelled in the system and another invoice sent. Being able to pay the invoice doesn’t seem correct.  Thank you

Clicking Share > Print on a purchase order created from a distribution order results in an error, “The operation is not possible for a purchase order created from a distribution order.”Is there a workaround or setting that will allow users to print a purchase order created from a distribution order?  

As you ask in my CS0489055 : “This demand has already been identified and channeled to R&D. They should be releasing a new Service Update version to attend to this legal demand in the upcoming releases [...].”, I create this “question” to obtain the required response. => Description of the demand : The format of the issued DAS2 file is not compliant. Please find attached a descriptive document and a French administrative document confirming this in the case CS0489055. Please, what is the planned date for the next Service Update for version 24R1, in which the requested correction will be included?

Hi, My customer has created a page as an action in mwo and added several fields to that page. In one section they have created two fields; a LOV and a Text field. The customer wants to enable to Text field based on the value they add to the LOV.Ex: make the text field visible only if the LOV value in ‘Other’.This has been setup in page designer configuration in below manner and working fine there.   However, the problem is that, this change does not apply to mobile. Any idea why?We have initialized the app, refreshed cache and disconnected and connected the app.Best Regards,

Has anyone successfully managed to retrieve Business Report data from IFS to an external application - through API/Projection (or using Boomi).Generate a BR report and then use that result as something that need to be transferred to an external application.Our scenario is that we need to create balance sheet/P&L and then transfer the result to a Consolidation system for the parent company. These reports are created in BR.I can find the created BR report in Excel_Report_Archive, as an Excel file but I have not managed to access the data. There doesn’t seem to be any generated API’s for Business reports either, for Quick Reports there are API’s automatically created that can be used to extract the data from IFS. Or maybe this has to be solved in Excel, through the generated Excel Sheet - to manually trigger a transfer with some sort of script?

Dear all.IFS has introduced the IFS Ai feature where it is possible to extract invoice header level information using invoice image file to load invoices automatically.I have extracted the desciption from the release notes of 25R1“To facilitate the supplier invoice data capture automation, the Azure Invoice Model is integrated with IFS Cloud to automatically extract relevant data from supplier invoices uploaded to the system. It supports various file formats, including JPG, JPEG, PNG, and PDF.​Upon upload, the model captures key invoice details and facilitates the creation of corresponding Supplier Invoices within the application.​The extracted data includes the following fields:​Header Level – Supplier, Invoice Number, Invoice Date, Due Date, Invoice Recipient, PO Reference, Gross Amount, Net Amount and Tax Amount​”. Where can I find a help document which can help me configure this functionality. Need to demonstrate the same to customer.

We see the need to be able to modify operational loggings after serial numbers have been renamed. This happens quite a lot in our business that incorrect serial numbers get runs, and then are rebuilt before we have the possibility to correct the run. Can you please open up for this possibility? Pages: Correct Operationa Loggings, Report Operational Loggings
