Hi All, I’m looking for more information with regards to the use of Object Type and Type Designations on the Serial Object. What are they used for and how exactly do they influence each other and what are some use cases for them. Situation: I entered a Type designation 0001 that I connected to Object type 600. Both of them were linked to Technical class 005. Question 1: So when you go to the Serial Object, you can select a ‘Type Designation’ and the ‘Object Type’ will be completed with the object linked to the Type Designation - so far so good.But when both fields are empty and you select an Object Type, the Type Designation does not get auto-filled. Is there any reason for this? Why does Type designation autocomplete the Object Type but not vice-versa?  Question 2: it seems to be possible to add different technical classes to the Type Designation and the Object Type, while they are interconnected themselves (changed Technical Class for Type Designation to TC2 instead of TC5) . That me

Hello, Hoping you can help.We need to create an end point(IFS10) to pass to a third party to return three fields of information. My understanding is this achieved via the IFS Developer Studio. I create a projection, which will give me an end point and via postman i can send the data which will be later used to run a transaction created via stored procedure.Not used developer studio before and seem to hitting errors when creating the projection, not sure if we need to use the service layer and if Aurena is involved. Hoping to hear of anyone that has set this up please? ThanksRoss

We need to set a flag on task based on the ARRIVED status if that is within the customer’s geofencing area.However, in theory it should work using basic setup, while it is not working practically.Any pointers please?

Hi Team, There was an advance invoice done by customer and we already refunded the same, but there is a positive CUPIA in the system and we need to clear that from customer account and customer analysis screen in IFS.We've already created the credit note and tried to clear it, but every time automatically the positive CUPIA entry is getting generated. We've also done adjustments and rollback of transaction but still no luck. can anyone help in this. 

We are running into an issue where we invoiced a service contract, credited the service contract and now want to change pricing.  Cloud is not allowing us to change anything.  We tried delete, price change, reval, etc. Any suggestions?

I would like to report machine time through machine clocking in Shop Floor Workbench (SFWB), but report labor time based on received quantity (if this is possible).  I have set the work center Time Reporting Settings as follows:where Auto Report Labor Time with Qty is set to Always.  When I test this, I start production on the Shop Order through SFWB and select Machine Time only.  I then go to Approve the operation and receive the reserved Lot Batch with Auto Report of Operations selected.However, when I review the Labor and Operation history, there is no labor reported.  I was assuming that having Auto Report Labor Time with Qty would result in labor reported (transaction code LABOR_RPT) per the standard based on the received quantity.  However, all that is reported is the OPFEED transaction with qty and machine time.  Is what I am expecting mistaken, or is there a setting that I have missed?

Within IFS21R2 new functionality becomes available for presenting a product assortment.When I use non-inventory sales parts only I don't see the parts.Are they to be configured in a certain way or are only inventory sales parts allowed/shown via the B2B portal?

I am seeing a task where you can cleanup customer orders and one of the selections is for cancelled order headers.  I believe cancelled orders would not have any transactional history and really are only taking up space.  I tested that and was able to delete the cancelled customer order for anything older than 12/31/23.  My question is, can we do the same thing with Distribution Orders and Purchase Orders?  I am aware of the concern of deleting something that has transactional history and I don’t want to do that, but I would like to get rid of stuff that never had anything happen.Suggestions?

How can I make a field type controller in to a look up . As I know Control type should change and should have a reference to be a look up  . is there a way to do this by just using page configurations ? 

Sales Contract requires Customer Delivery Delivery address for Tax defintion - suggest  support  for countries/Tax beyond  India Localization.Customers in ECI using Sales Contracts and Project Invoicing have a need to define the Taxing delivery address by contract. This is being reviewed as a CRIM by a customer in the US. On review with Global presales and looking at the roadmap I noticed this function fundamentally exists for India Tax Localization. Several of us have reviewed this along side the CRIM specification - included Project R&S and they are very similar. The requirement is not limited to Sales Contracts Tax reqs in India  but applicable to Sales Tax , GST and VAT tax based regimes and countries.The concentp means applying an address details tab on the contract that calls deleivery address and tax rules from customer master - so we can define the taxing rule on that contract for that address. The Tax rules would be checked at Contract creation, activation, revision and in

Hello everyone We have a strange occurrence whereby the cost recognized is different from the actual cost for a project that is POC Income First. The first line for example, shows actual cost of 4,450.71 but the calculated cost recognized accumulated is 23,801.66 . My understanding is that if it is POC Inecome First then the cost that will be recognized will be equal to the actual cost. Would anyone have an idea of what would cause such a discrepancy in this case? Any thoughts would be appreciated.    

Hi, we want to implement Large Order Quantity check.I would like to get some fields. Can someone please help me to get the right value in DB?  On Hand Qty for a part, I found it in table IFSAPP.INVENTORY_PART_IN_STOCK_TAB, but it can have multiple rows because of receiving part. But I would like to get a sum amount of a part like IFS showing in page. Should I sum all the rows relate to the same Part_NO? Or I can get it from some other places? Dose Catalog_No in IFSAPP.CUSTOMER_ORDER_LINE_TAB is as same as Part_No?

Hi,All employees are connected to a cycle schedule without daytypes. If an employee send in a absence request for parental leave 50% for the period 2025-10-01 to 2026-03-31, how should that be filled in? Should we set “hours per day”? Do we need to set any “registration mode”?When is “Half Day Only” used? Regards,Karolina

The user needs to restart the browser or navigate back to the startup page and log in again. Is this a cache issue?  We are using Google Chrome. Are there any tricks to get rid of this?Thanks!

Hello,For a serialized manufactured part, at a certain operation on a shop order I scrapped 1 part out of 5 (Lot size)Then I want to receive the shop order and I got at this level one serial number part which not activated.But the problem is that I have the possibility to activate the receipt and the message below is not blocking!!This will create many incoherences :for example, in shop floor workbench, it is possible to visualize the scrapAnd also in inventory, we can find 5 parts received with standard cost and 1 part with “scrapped cost” which is not logic! Can anyone has an idea about this and how is it possible de block it please? thanks

Hi, we were surprised to realize that the standard HR LTU Licence provides access to the view “Employment Information” without any restriction. This view provides the global list of all our employees along contact data. That’s obviously a breach of data protection rules and as it is linked to LTU licence we cannot block it at permission set level. So is there a parameter somewhere that we may have forgotten or activated that provides such extensive data access ?In the below picture I’m logged with such LTU licence and i could fetch information from any company, not only the one I’m assigned with. 

When I create a task for a follow up for myself, it doesn’t trigger a notification on the notification panel. User will need to go to Tasks to see it. If someone else is assigned, the notification will be triggered.  Is this a known limitation (Customer version is 24R2)?

 Encountered an issue when running a scheduled quick report in IFS Cloud 24R1. When the report is sent as an email attachment in Excel format, it contains extra spaces around the cells (except for the header row). However, when I run the same report and export it directly from the quick report/output window, it appears correctly without these extra spaces. Example - Scheduled quick report mail attachment: Output from Quick report window:Could you please guide me what configuration settings should be adjusted to prevent the extra spaces in the scheduled reports Excel attachment?Is there a specific setting related to the export format that might be causing these spaces?Any other suggestions to resolve this issue? Thank you!
