Hello,What is the correct way to use this report?What data should be set? Thank you
In the Quick Report, is it possible to have the 'Supplier' and 'Supplier Name' in the filter and even after refreshing the screen, the filter 'Supplier' and 'Supplier Name' should stay
In the Quick report, can we set the default view as 'Table View' instead of 'List view' in the screen- Order Report BPMS Supplier for Purchase Part Price List
After upgrading from IFS 9 (UPD 16) to IFS Cloud 25R1 SU5, the upgrade was completed in two stages: IFS 9 → IFS 10 IFS 10 → IFS Cloud This approach followed the official IFS upgrade guidelines for migrating IFS 9 customers to IFS Cloud.During verification of the first iteration, an issue was reported. When opening Prepare Work Order or Historical Work Order, the errors shown in the attached screenshots appear.Questions What is the correct setup for Object Connection Transformation in IFS Cloud to allow media attached to a work order to be viewed in Historical Work Orders, and vice versa? If a work order contains multiple tasks, is it possible to configure object connections so that work order media can be viewed within a specific task (for example, the task where Order No. = 0)? Why does the IFS upgrade process not handle system-defined Object Connection Transformation entries that are no longer valid in IFS Cloud (for example, Active Routes)? Reference:https://ifsgcsc2-d02.demo
When upgrading from Apps 9 to the Cloud, work orders generate work tasks based on several conditions, such as:Availability of operation lines Tool lines Jobs, etc.This applies to both active work orders/routes and historical work orders/routes. Questions on Work Task Generation During Migration from Apps 9 to CloudWhat are all the triggers that control the generation of work tasks? Under what conditions does the system generate a single task versus multiple tasks for work orders (both active and historical)? How are routes converted into work orders during the migration process?
How do you handle the costs for different time types when using Resource Groups and Job Rate Management?For example, we have a Resource Group ‘Engineers’ which allow you to add one cost value and sales part value. We then assign work to engineers within that resource group via Mobile Work Order.When the engineer books their time they select one of the following time types - Standard, 1.5x, 2x, depending on their contractual hours.How does the costs associated with those time types get added to the work order if the resource group only has one cost assigned to it? Similarly, how does the sales part relating to the time type get added to the work order to ensure the customer is charged the appropriate rate?
Hi All, Any Idea on this? Upgrading from 22R2 to 25R2I removed .cdb and added Ddlsource and moved the code. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SET SERVEROUTPUT ON-- ***** EXT_WAGE_TRANSACTION_RTB Start *****DECLARE rtb_name_ VARCHAR2(34) := Database_SYS.Get_Rtb_Name#('EXT_WAGE_TRANSACTION_TAB'); columns_ Database_SYS.ColumnTabType; column_ Database_SYS.ColRec;BEGIN Database_SYS.Reset_Column_Table#(columns_); Database_SYS.Set_Table_Column#(columns_, 'C_XXX_XXX', 'VARCHAR2(20)', 'Y'); Database_SYS.Create_Or_Extend_Real_Table#(rtb_name_ , columns_, '&IFSAPP_DATA', NULL, TRUE);END;/-- ***** EXT_WAGE_TRANSACTION_RTB End *****SET SERVEROUTPUT OFF-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The mentioned error is during the branch build.

Hi,In 25R2 , customers who use delivery continuity need to empty all cdbs and move code to relevant ddl/dml files to support online delivery.For customers who upgrade to 25R2 and dont use delivery continuity for now , can still do the same as above targeting future use of the feature and continue with offline installation? As per documentation this is possible as i understood?Best Regards,Wasana
Hi,Using workflow I was trying to automate the “Receive” functionality present on “My Self-Service Request History” screen. This same functionality is also present on “Register Arrival” screen. I checked in the code of the assistant that pops up when this button is clicked. The assistant populates data in the virtual(s) using an action “InsertSelection” which accepts 2 parameters, first one is of CLOB type. So, I tried to replicate this step into my workflow using the below 3 blocks -First block “Create Temp Lob” is creating a new record in FndTempLobs - Second block “Update Clob Data” is Updating the Lob record created in previous step by passing the ClobData -${Selection} contains the keyref string. This step is not working I believe. Last block “Call InsertSelection” calls the action by passing in the LobId that was generated in the first block. After the 2nd block, I get the error from the 3rd block - The three blocks are created in the same way the network calls are invoked upon c

In the current setup, the customer is utilizing Sales Contracts for invoicing, where state taxes are applied at the contract header level. However, the same customer operates with multiple delivery and invoice addresses, and the applicable state tax varies depending on the specific address ID.Since the tax is determined at the Sales Contract header level (and not at the line/item level), the requirement is to assess whether standard IFS functionality supports handling multiple tax structures for the same customer based on different address IDs within a single Sales Contract.From the Report Codes, it is understood that tax handling can be managed through configuration. However, based on the customer’s scenario, this would not be an optimal or scalable solution, as the tax variation is address-driven rather than report code–driven.Could you please confirm whether there is available standard functionality in IFS to manage varying tax codes per customer address within Sales Contracts, or w
Hello our wonderful IFS Community :)We’re running IFS Cloud 24R1, applying SU20 to a pilot instance for evaluation (going from SU9). We’ve encountered an issue when receiving goods off of a Shop Order, complaining that an Expiration Date is mandatory. I’ve limited things down to something that appears correct in the SU9 version of the API INVENTORY_PART_IN_STOCK_API and a variable check_mandatory_expire_date_ that is referenced in the Check_Insert__ / Check_Common__ procedures.Here’s a sample of the check_mandatory_expire_date_ being set (as opposed to the DEFAULT value for the parameter taking place. Anyone encounter an issue like this when going to SU20? Error message:ORA-20124: Error.NULLVALUE: Field [EXPIRATION_DATE] is mandatory for Inventory Part In Stock and requires a value.INVENTORY_PART_IN_STOCK_API package body snippet:-- Bug SCZ-27258, Start check_mandatory_expire_date_ BOOLEAN := TRUE; -- Bug SCZ-27258, EndMany thanks, and feel free to let me know if you’d like addit
Hi All, We can give a time to complete when we change the status of an assignment to “Incomplete” in a Request task. The status of the assignment is changed to “Incomplete” and “Time to Completion” is updated correctly. However, there is no any slot in the Dispatch Console or any other place to assign this remaining 1 hour as an assignment.If we Incomplete an assignment from MWO by choosing the option “Needs to be planned”, then we can suggest a Resource Group and Preferred Resource while we incomplete the assignment. Then only, assignment slot appears in the dispatch console. But, what will happen when a technician only Incomplete work by giving remaining time to complete?TIA.
Hi everyone, We are trying to create serial object with the rental module, but we don’t manage to do it.We have enabled “create SM object” on sales part, but the object is not created when we deliver rental CO lines. Is it possible to create object with this process ? Do you have any other solutions ?Thanks,Simon Pertin
Hello, I am attempting to create an arrival to receive a Purchase Order line via REST API. I am inspecting the endpoint calls that Aurena makes during the process, but i’m unable to figure out which call is actually performing the receipt. I see calls to CreateReceiptSet but the payload doesnt include the information from the arrival line (PO #, Line, Etc). I also see CreateArrivalReceipt, but it only uses what i assume is the OBJKEY that is returned from CreateReceiptSet. I know this is a little tricky because an assistant is involved, but I cant seem to make sense of the calls that are happening. Any tips for figuring out how this assistant works?
HelloIn IFS Cloud, the max lines to be shown in one screen is 960, when the searching result are 2000 lines and one of field will be replaced by edit all function, how can I do this in one time instead of three times (1st time 960, 2nd time 960, 3rd time for the rest)? Please help to advice. ThanksSusan
Hello,In IFS Cloud, is it possible to automate the ‘Delivery Confirmation of Customer Orders’ based on the receipt of purchase orders for which a "Receiving Advice" has been created and sent via MHS ?The objective is to automatically generate sales order Delivery Confirmations as soon as a purchase order receiving advice has been issued.For clarification, this is within the context of an intercompany flow between two sites (one buyer and one seller). Thank you in advance for your support Best regards
We have a customer on IFS Cloud 24R2 and have a custom IAL defined with Manual Update and Copy All Data replication type in PROD. The last replication job did not complete successfully, it ran for around 6 hours and it appears the Oracle session was terminated, and the job was subsequently set to Error status by the light cleanup process with the following message:This background job was set to state Error because the executing Oracle process was killed (detected by cleanup process at 2026-02-21-01.18.27 due to no session being found).After four days, customer has re-attempted to retry the manual replication. However, it still fails with the below error:Replication is in progress. New replication will not be initiated. ORA-20105: IalObject.REPLICATIONINPROIs there a safe way to handle this situation from either the database or application side?In App10, we could use the IAL configuration screen to RMB > Reset Failed Executions, but this option doesn’t seem to exist in IFS Cloud.
I am unable to release a purchase requisition in IFS Cloud even though I have full access to PurchaseRequisitionHandling.
All,How do I get the following field onto another page so that it can be edited too.The field is in the view purchase_receipt and is the finally_invoiced_date. This field is seen on the Porcurement - Receipt - Receipt page - Closed DateI want this to be on the Procurement - Receipt - Receipts page. However when I go into page designer the field is not there to choose from and as I want to modify the data in this field I’m stumped as to the best way to do this. Help here would be appreciated.The reason I need to have this field in an easy to see view is that we have a few customers who supply ourselves with free issue parts that we will never match to an invoice as we do not receive an invoice, however we do have to give our customer a PO for scheduling stock into ourselves, so to fully close and tidy up a date needs to be in this field.If there is a better way of doing this now in the system please advise as I’m happy to look at our set up also. Thanks Sarah
This is in IFS apps 10 upd 25, local installation.We have 2 users with the same permissions, same company and site access, same business roles, etc. One has the access in the INVENTORY PART IN STOCK RESERVATIONS to the Move with Transport Task rmb option, and the other doesn’t. Where is the access for these rmb options on that screen set please?The permission sets granted to both users should grant this access already, so why does one user have it and the other not? Is there another setting somewhere within the Procurement part of the system to enable this?Thanks
Hello,Kindly explain me what is the use of enforce use of POCO at Site setup.What happens if we enable or disable it ?Regards,Kruthika
Hi everyone,currently we use system for calculating distribution and production plans (not IFS) (supply, distribution, inventory) and IFS for execution (PO / CO).We are evaluating whether IFS alone could cover more of the planning scope.Could you please clarify whether IFS (and in which modules) supports the following:Distribution planning Planning stock transfers between plants and DCs Deciding from which location to supply demand when multiple sources exist Handling constrained situations (limited stock or supply) Multi-echelon & supply planning Coordinated planning across multiple levels (supplier → plant → DCs → regional DCs) Inventory balancing across echelons Creating time-phased supply plans and sharing what suppliers need to produce and when Multi-sourcing & prioritization Multiple supply sources per item/location Prioritization of demand when goods are insufficient We would especially appreciate insight on whether these capabilities are rule-based or optimizati
When a product structure (With components) header has notes and the components are Buildable, the notes are added to the shop order header as soon as the part is added and the shop order header is saved. Product Structure Header Shop Order Notes This is happening only when components are added to the product structure and it is Buildable. What is the reason for this behaviour? I have seen an explanation for an older version of IFS which states that“Notes on the Product Structure Header are added hoping it contains common information related to the Specific Revision of the product and displayed in the Tracking and History Tab hoping these notes will be useful when manufacturing the product”. In Cloud, this is not observed in tracking or History, instead directly transferred to the shop order notes. Please explain. Thanks!
