Hello,In MWO, we have the ‘My Misc. Allocations’ screen. In IFS Cloud, through page designer I’m able to view the related commands for Add, Edit, Delete and Remove Approval for the Misc. Allocation screen until version 25R1. In 25R2 version, I do not see these options in the Page Designer. Even if we configure the projection ‘CommonMiscAllocHandling’ as Read-Only in the permission set, it does not make it Read-Only.Is there a reason why these options were removed? What are the alternatives to disable these commands from the My Misc. Allocation screen? Please let me know.
I’m trying to determine whether our current approach is still the best fit now that the workflow has changed regarding our budget approval process. Historically, our routing logic relied on a custom event that evaluated project category and complexity before triggering the appropriate approval path. That made sense when we had multiple routing scenarios, but we’re now moving to a single, standardized approval template that every project will follow regardless of type. Because of that shift, I’m questioning whether continuing to use a custom event is necessary or even ideal in Cloud.!--startfragment>!--startfragment>Before we invest time in refactoring or rebuilding the event, I want to understand whether Cloud offers a more native or maintainable way to initiate this workflow. I’m particularly interested in whether anyone has replaced custom events with configuration only solutions or template level controls that eliminate the need for custom logic. If anyone has an tips or sugge
Hi,In Oil and Gas extension in App10 and prior, we have a functionality that when receiving a purchase order (PO), the PO number is copied to W/D/R number in the corresponding inventory transactions and inventory part in stock. This makes possible for us to track inventory for Transport, tax, return purposes etc..As Oil and Gas extension has become a core functionality in cloud, I wonder how the above functionality is implemented. Is it as same as before or a new column is used to track the PO information?
Hi,We use IFS_SEPA_TO_CORE_03_SEPA for the payment supplier.When we send the payement, we send the reference paiement instead of the supplier invoice number.How can I change this ?
Hello,I am creating a few new parts that I get from another site, for some reason, the new parts that I am creating are not getting a Purchasing Req when I run MRP. I get an error saying that it needs a DO coordinator. I can get the DO if I add the coordination, but I want it to be PO/CO instead. Not sure what I am missing here. Thank you!

Hi all,We’ve noticed that for Non‑Inventory Customer Order Lines in IFS Cloud, the Non Inventory Qty to Deliver automatically becomes 0 whenever the Planned Due Date is in the future. Could someone explain why behavior or logic behind setting Qty to Deliver to 0 for future Planned Due Dates? Any practical examples.Thanks,Sureka

While the employee trying to report time in employee company, he receive an error message saying that he is not connected to company B. “Access denied!

We implemented a modification where triggering an action creates a background job executed by the IFSAPP user to update certain data.We also have an event configured to prevent modifications to this data when the user is IFSAPP. How can we adjust this event so that it is not triggered when the user is IFSAPP and the action is executed through a background job? is it possible? Thank you in advance DECLAREcf$_userid VARCHAR2(100);BEGIN -- Récupérer l'utilisateur IFS cf$_userid := ifsapp.fnd_session_api.get_fnd_user(); -- Interdire l'utilisateur IFSAPP IF cf$_userid = 'IFSAPP' THEN Error_sys.Appl_General( 'SepaPaymentAddress', 'IFSAPPMODIFYRIB: IFSAPP n''est pas autorisé à modifier les RIBs' ); END IF;END;
I’ve got a rather generic question. I do write quite a bit of code myself. One example: We improved the performance of the part availability planning by moving some code from Order_Supply_Demand_API.Calc_Detail_Planning to Generate_Availability_Snapshot. The main culprit is that there’s a cursor get_previous_record_sum that fetches all previous records for every record there is. The first records fetches one more record, the record 1000 fetches 1000 records. It works rather well, data is loaded much quicker.To another developer, I can easily show how this improves the performance.My question: Has anyone reported such issues to IFS? In our experience, we always get in touch with a first level supporter who does not understand the details of the code and asks for a use case they can reproduce. We tried that before, it usually takes a lot of time trying to explain a technical problem in a non technical way. It’s understandable, you don’t want your core developers taking care of customer t
Hi There,Do we have any standard solution already available in IFS for Bonded Warehouse or IFS has any plan to introduce a solution in their upcoming releases. We have already designed a solution to support Boned warehouse using configurations and lobbies. Think it is not worth doing configurations if there is a plan to deliver the standard solution by IFS in their upcoming releases as our implementation is planned for next year. So needed to make sure.Really appreciate if someone from IFS R&D confirms this and currently we are using IFS cloud 24R1Regards,Mithun K V
Hi All, I am generating Wo’s from my Service Contract through PM actions. But I noticed that trhe field ‘Contract Id’, ‘Line No’ and ‘Customer No’ are not defined when creating the WO from that Service Contract. That strikes me as odd since that info is easily obtained. Adding the info after creatin is also not possible - IFS will give an error that the Contract ID cannot be edited for WO generated from PM actions. So somewhere in the background, IFS knows the WO was generated from a PM Action/Service Contract ID - but it does not provide the info. Is this a bug of an inconsistency from the application? It seems very strange and I can’t think of any good reason why this info should be missing. Best RegardsRoel Background info:Create Contract ID ‘3’Create PM plan for preventive maintenance for contract ID and generate WO ‘12’ from PM plan Check WO 12 - notice that Customer No, Contract ID and Line No are empty
Hello, can somebody explain me how the access rights in Export Control are working?In Export license Access Rights tab I set that user IC-ROFASK has no access to read/edit licence or view/edit/administrate document.Also on document revision I enabled Export Control and Access Rights via Export License When I log in as user IC-ROFASK I can see/edit this export license and also document revision.Also I am able to find and connect this license to order.I thought that with these settings this user will have no access to this export license/document revision.Am I missing something? Thanks for any advice. Romana
I have an alternate component set up and the product structure has the Alternate Exist checkbox checked on the component line. There is no inventory of the original part and there is inventory of the alternate component part. But when I try to process a shop order the Alternate Exist checkbox is not checked on the shop order and when I right mouse on the line and choose Alternate component/replace, I get an error that No alternate component is defined or component qty required is zero, but that is not true, what am I missing?
Hi Folks, appreciate your help in getting rid of the below error when deleting a work task template work list, re generating associated PM actions same error pops.
Hi, Unlike PM Actions in FSM when a Request is generated from an Recurring Service Program it is created into Status Released automatically.Below I’ve created 4 scopes from an Recurring Service Program (Object Based). As you can see these Requests and Scopes have automatically been Released. I do not want this to be the case I’d like to keep them in “New” status for them to be reviewed by a Scheduler (just like PM Actions). Is it possible to configure this behaviour (within the application) without a customisation?
There is a problem manifests when users attempt to accept or start a Pool Task assigned to a Resource Group. The system raises an internal error (Utility<CreateAssignmentInState>: Failed to read expression value from AllTaskRec.TaskSeq) during assignment creation, preventing the task from being accepted or started.Product Version: 25.2.2

A new functionality called Assembly Kit has been introduced in 25R2, and this solution perfectly fits one of our customer requirements. However, there is a limitation when managing these assembly kits for rental use, as the system has a hard restriction that prevents modifying the contents of an assembly kit through an assembly order when the ownership type is a company rental asset. I understand this limitation exists because the assembly kit cost is calculated based on the component costs.However, we would be keen to know if anyone from R&D can confirm whether there are plans in the future roadmap to enable the Assembly Kit functionality for rental use as well.
Hello, is there a way to store dimensions of a part in IFS i.e the length and width of a part?
Hi together,when I look into the sync rule for SrvRequestScope, a lot of fields are synchronized to mWO, e g REQ_ISSUE_SYMPTOM_ID : But, when I try to add this field via page designer to the request scope page, the field is not selectable. There are some fields existing, but most the fields are missing. Is there any possibility to add the mentioned field? I am aware, a workaround would be to add a custom field, but this is not my wanted solution.
The issue is there was many follow ups from receivable team to get some of the invoices paid but after follow up came to know that customer paid the invoices since long time.Currently, it is done manually by the employee to change it in IFS as paid invoices.Yet would like to know if there is any other way to get this systemized without Employee interference.
Hello,We are trying to upgrade our in house install of v10 to a later version of IFS Cloud which we will also host in house. We do have a current process that works, however it takes 30+ hours to run. It currently upgrades 10 to 23r2s4. Then it cycles through 2 versions of 24 and 3 versions of 25. It seems that we should be able to skip from 10 to the latest version of cloud that we plan on implementing to shorten the lifecycle. However, there were some steps provided to us per our customization by IFS for the leap to 23r2s4 and there are some other steps for the initial 24 version related mostly to queueing. I’m trying to figure out how to include those while going more directly to a later version. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks so much.Julie
