I am trying to set the Markup % for a sales line on a work order task:  The field help states “The markup percentage when the price source is Cost Based”. I am unable to edit the Price Source field for the line. The field help states “Cost based: The price has been calculated using the Markup %”.Feels like a bit of a chicken / egg scenario, is there somewhere I have missed a prerequisite in the Work order that is not allowing me to do edit this field?

We have a common situation where we receive in Aviation Components for Repair that we send out for subcontract repair via a CRO Repair of type External Service Order, Order Type 6 (ESO) Purchase Order, component “Customer Owned”In some instances the component is returned back from the Repairer with a different Part Number due to the incorporation of a Service Bulletin or Modifcation (serial number is the same).On return the component is receipted into Inventory with the “new” Part Number,  as that is the Part Number on the Repairers Release Certificate.Issue arises that the Customer Order (Line 1) that is associated with the CRO Repair Line is for the Part Number that we received in from the Customer therfore we are unable to Reserve the newly modified item against that line. We can manually add a line to the Customer Order for the new Part Number, reserve and ship and then cancel the existing Line 1 on the Customer Order but this then disconnects the CRO Repair line from the Customer

Hi All,I'm having trouble figuring out the best way to issue materials to a work order using a mobile device. I haven’t been able to find much information on how to do this efficiently.I’m looking for your advice on the best method to issue materials to a work order.With Wadaco, we have two options: Manual_Issue_Work_Order and Unplanned_Issue_Work_Order. However, these don’t seem ideal if you don’t have a physical pick list.For maintenance material requisitions, I first need to reserve the materials. After that, a pick list is created, and the warehouse team has to pick the exact lot, batch, or serial number assigned. Even though the “pick by choice” setting is enabled at the site level, it doesn’t seem to work in this scenario.It looks like IFS doesn’t support “pick by choice” for maintenance material requisitions.If we use the Unplanned_Issue_Work_Order method, we can skip creating a pick list. But then, the warehouse team won’t be able to see where the parts are stored.I’m trying to

Hello IFS Community,I am new to configuration in IFS Cloud and am wondering if there is any easy way to find out which arguments are expected by methods that can be found under Entity > Packages.I only seem to progress here using trial and error with some key fields. A current example would be the method MAINT_MATERIAL_REQ_LINE_API.Get_Task_Seq() on the entity MaintMaterialReqLine. Is there any documentation on this that i did not find yet? Not just for the specific case but in general? 

Hi expersts,here at customer site (Apps 10) we have an interesting scenario.We want to buy nitric acid within canisters.We are in Supplier/purchase part and in the IFS mask Surcharges:(View: POC = PurchaseOrderCharges)Each canister has 22 kg and the POL is 12 pcs => 264 kg.We have 4 POCs :2 with measure kg and 2 with measure pcs.One e.g. is deposit which comes with pcs One e.g. is toll which comes with kg.We tested the field UnitCharge (True/False Tickbox)​It seems that if we untick the UnitCharge we can change the ChargedQty from 264 to 12.Is there someone else who had the same scenario and can share knowledge?Thank you!BRMichael​​​​​​

Hi I have @IFS Community a question regarding the problem with Date format en-US for language en on reports (Purchase order report - done by report designer), with some additional settings, it is possible to manually choose another Date format before printing. Unfortunately there is no simple way to change the settings so that this Date format is chosen automatically; it needs to be done manually. We need to set UK format instead of US format. Can you help? Is there any way to set it up so we do not need to do it manually every time before printing?Let me know please ​ ​@IFS Elite Solution Experts ​@IFS RD Product Management ​@IFS Newbie ​@IFS Lyn ​@IFS User ​@IFS Thank youRegardsNicole Valentine

Hello,A handful of our customers do drop ships to addresses that aren’t necessarily accounted for in their Customer record as a delivery address. When this happens, our customer care team has to cross reference a external document to see if the state they are shipping to should be tax exempt or not. Is there a way in IFS Cloud 24R1to define tax lability for all 50 states on a customer by customer basis? This way, even if the customer is drop shipping to a state that is not in their list of delivery addresses, their customer order will default to the correct tax liability?Thank you,

Hi All,I would like to request some clarification regarding the behaviour of MRP in this context.As I understand it, MRP does not generate pegged supplies by default. It evaluates demand, and if there is no available stock, IFS creates supply orders that are not pegged to specific demands.Now, let’s consider a scenario where I manually create pegged orders by modifying the supply code (e.g., to Purch Order Trans) at the customer order line level. When the customer order is released, a pegged purchase requisition (PR) is generated as expected. However, after converting this PR into a purchase order (PO) and changing the delivery date, I anticipated that MRP would recognize this adjustment—identifying the order as either early or late in relation to the demand.It appears, however, that when supplies are pegged using supply codes, MRP does not detect these orders in the same way. As a result, it does not flag them as early or late orders during its planning run.Could someone confirm wheth

Good morning,our design department is currently ending its process within creating DOP structure and release of DOP orders.Within DOP header, they usually attach the documents like drawings, specifications, data sheets necessary for production or purchasing to process. Can somebody advise on how to set up the object connection in a way that all documents from DOP header are transferred for all shop orders / purchase requisitions? Or is there a way to define which ones are just to the shop orders and which ones to the purchase requisitions? I am not having any luck in this regard. Thank you,Best RegardsPetaKu

CLOUD 24R1Scenario: Prerrequisites: Handling unit type with packaging material part associated and ‘Reusable’ option enabled.Go to the Inventory part in stock and select a part that has not handling unit connected. Select the option to Pack according to Handling unit Capacity and enter the quantity to pack for an specific Handling unit type.  The part is packed with an specific handling unit ID. The packaging material of the handling unit type is consumed automatically and issue from the stock If I go again to the Inventory part in stock and select the part that I have just packed and select ‘Unattach from handling unit’ for unpack, the system will not receive again the packaging part into stock to be able to be used again for another packing. The quantity on hand of the packaging material should not be increased?Thank you in advance.

Hello Everyone, We attempted to print multiple reports simultaneously, but only one report was successfully printed.Upon investigating the issue, we reviewed the Kubernetes pod logs and found Java errors in the ifsapp-reporting pod. The logs indicated the following error:java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space When I describe the reporting pod, the java heap memory allocation was as below;IFS_JAVA_OPTS:                -XX:MaxRAMPercentage=30                                    -XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=594M Is there any possibility that we can increase the java heap space value from the deployment or any workaround to get rid of these errors? Thanks in Advance! Best Regards,Rayan

Hi,For a master scheduled part with promise method set to Available to promise the system will show an information message (as shown on the screenshot below) if there is not enough quantity available to promise according to MS.When the customer order is received as an incoming customer order there is no such information when the customer order is created. Would expect also infomation messages to show up on the incoming customer order so those could be monitored.Any suggestions on how to get these?We are running IFS Applications 10  Regards,Anna

It is not possible to override the default value for SYSCFG_SOX_LOG_EXPIRE_DAYS (Edm File Op Announce) - how long a log entry will remain before it is deleted.Is there a way to override this default value? Is there a parameter somewhere that will enable this override?We have a requirement to store information for a very long time for a specific document type.We can of course change the standard value to 9999, but that would affect all documents and the table would fill up quite quickly.

Hi Docman experts,Scenario.When attaching a document to a ‘Supplier Request’ using Attachments and then options ‘Attach Existing’ or ‘New Document’ , I would like to show only 3 Document Classes to End Users so that they can only select from those 3 Document Classes.How can I achieve this using existing Docman functionality?As you can see in the screenshot, End-user can see multiple document classes.I tried ‘Document Defaults per Object’ by defining the LU name but it only defaults the Document Class when creating a new document and it does not filter/restrict document classes.

Scenario:A work task is linked to an active Service Contract. In Part Service Contract Cost offsets have been specified. I raise a new Maintenance Purchase Requisition from the Work Task and add a new No Part Requisition Line.   I am expecting the Markup% and Revenue% fields to populate as per the below. However, they come through as Markup% is blank and Revenue% is 0.  How or when do the Markup% and Revenue% get populated on the Purch Req line from the Service Contract?The net result of this is invoicing from the work task will be calculated incorrectly or the lines end up being Not Invoiceable if these fields don’t populate. All feedback/ suggestions are greatly appreciated.

We are consistently looking for ways to further streamline our mWO installation.  We are currently looking at this entity as it is the slowest syncing entity by a large margin.  Our technicians have no need for this information, but our concern is that the “Responded_Date” and the “Resolved_Date” fields may not get populated if we block the entity from mWO.  Would anyone be able to confirm or fully deny this concern for us?
