When a Supplier has more than one address and we change this address in the "Supplier Document Address" field on the "Supplier" tab of the "Request For Quotation" screen, this document is not loaded into the Purchase Order (PO); the PO continues to retrieve the Supplier's default value.Is this a bug?
Dear Community, SummaryPlease enable IBAN validation also for ISO20022 to increase financial data integrity, strengthen the overall financial solution, and mitigate the risk of time‑consuming errors. This issue has been reproduced in 24R2 as well as in 25R1. DescriptionThe window “IBAN Validation Information” in IFS Cloud allows users to add an additional security layer to IBANs, which are highly sensitive financial data. The original purpose of this feature is that whenever an IBAN is entered in the system, it is validated against the parameters maintained in this window. This ensures that only valid bank accounts are stored in IFS. This currently works, for example, with SEPA payments. When a supplier payment address is created with payment method “SEPA”, the IBAN is checked accordingly and faulty entries are immediately identified and rejected: However, when adding an ISO20022 payment address, no IBAN validation is performed. This leads to situations where clearly incorrect IBANs ca
I have just created two requests in IFS-Cloud, the first one via API, the second one via screen.Both requests are identencial (besides of the starting time).Both requests are scheduled in future (07.03.2026). Both requests in the future raise the same execptions (they are marked as green)Why is the exception type raised: “Planned activity in Jeopardy” with more then 17.000 minutes? What das the exception type “Externally violated constraints” mean? How can I fix them? What do I have to insert where to get rid of these exceptions?Please give me some hints.
In Cloud, is there any way of getting the data that sits behind operational reports using REST APIs, but *without* running the op report first?E.g. I’m aware that it’s possible to do something like:Create a quick report that uses the most recent result key as a param Run op report to generate result key Run the quick report to get a tabular outputHowever, this all seems very clunky. Is there a way to do it in a single step, e.g. by calling a REST API that mimics what the op report does, with a series of parameters to set the inputs?
Hello,We are currently starting to work with disassembly workflows, as an addition to our standard assembly process. The aim is to receive a good that is to be retrofitted in our factory, and to track the whole process in the system.We have been able to create disassembly structures and use them in shop orders, but we now would like to have it work as what we normally do on our assembly processes.For example, we typically link each assembly to a project activity (Project/Sub Project), and in the contexte of this current project, linking both disassembly/assembly would be a way to track the overall cost of the disassembly/assembly process on the subproject.It seems like this feature is not possible for this kind of shop order (Link), is it possible to confirm it ? Many thanks for your help, Aurélien POIRIERIFS Cloud 23.2.23

Good Morning, I am reaching out as my customer would like to use the Business Opportunity module to manage their sales pipeline.Currently, it is possible to create a Sales Quotation, Sales Contract, or Service Quotation directly from a Business Opportunity.However, when creating a Service Quotation and passing its status to accepted, the Quotation created is linked to previous Service Module not to new Service Management Module.Has there been any communication or roadmap indicating when Business Opportunity will be integrated with the new Service Management module? Additionally, will it become possible to create a Request for Quotation or Request for Contract from the Business Opportunity?Thanks in advance for your answer,
Hello, How can we automatically update the country of origin information for the proforma invoice? For the BatchSince 23R2, it's possible to enter the country of origin when a purchase order arrives, based on the field "Country of Origin" configured in the "Supplier for Purchase Part” view.With the following rule, Priority order for default Country of Origin:Manufacturers Country Country of Origin from Order Line (only no part lines) Country of Origin from Supplier per Part Country of Origin from Inventory Part But how do you enter this value for manufactured items ? Where should the information be configured ?Because in the case of distribution orders between two sites or companies, the information is not updated. A message informs us that it is impossible to update the batch. Except that we need this information without having to enter it each time we declare arrival.Especially when we have multiple sources of supply. The same question applies to serialized items, where it's possible

Hello everyone,I would like to inquire about the limitations of Excel reports. What are the possible causes that prevent an Excel report from being successfully previewed in the Order Report when displaying a large volume of data?Currently, I am encountering an issue when attempting to preview data sets containing more than 1,000 rows and over 30 columns.An error message is displayed when I try to preview the report.
Hi All, we are trying to find an automatic way to handle tasks/steps for multiple objects.Some info taken from Community threads. It is possible to automatically generate PM actions for multiple objects via PM Programs.. PM Program will create 1 PM Action for each object with same tasks and steps; from this to create only 1 work order I will need to go in each PM Action created, flag 1 by 1 “merge” feature and it will create 1 WO with 1 Task per Object...is it correct? If it is so we still need to perform manual steps each time PM actions will be created and then this solution will not be fully automatic. We can duplicate worksteps for each object we would like to apply maintenance activities but there is not way to automatically add all the objects desidered (unless you’ll perform a migration job each time). If my assumptions are correct, is it possible there is no way to handle multiple objects activity in IFS in a totally automated way? Or at list perform just a flag (as it is in PM
Hi All,It is possible to incomplete or cancel an assignment sent to mobile from Backoffice. Additionally, is there anyway to changing the status to other way? Any tricks?Use Case: Technician is working in offline area and started work. Due to the SLA requirement, the status of the work task should be changed to a status such as “On Route” or “Work Started”. However, since the technician is offline, the status is not updated simultaneously. The Backoffice cannot update the status since it is downloaded to the mobile.Does anyone have an idea on how to handle a situation like this? TIA.

IFS Cloud 25R1 On a Person Resource Group Requirements tab, I have specified the Requirements along with a Requirement Source , Requirement ID, and Requirement Value.In the Resource Requirement Analysis screen, the fulfillment by Resource correctly specifies whether the Resources fulfil the Criteria. None, Partially of FullWhen I create a Work Task and assign the Task to a Resource that does not fulfill the requirement criteria, there is no system message to prevent or warn that the Work Task Assignment should not go ahead due to the Resource not fulfilling the Resource Requirement criteria.Is there a standard function in IFS to provide a warning / error message when the resource being assigned does meet the Resource Requirement criteria ?
If I have 2 sites, Site A and Site B, and I created a Customer Order for Site A and the DOP Header is created for Site A, is it possible to create the PRs required for the DOP to be created in Site B. This scenario is since Site B shouldn’t see the stocks of Site A, but the stocks must be procured from Site A and sent to B as a centralized procurement.Is this possible in the IFS Cloud Standard?

Hello,While creating a calendar based PM Action with WO generation lead time, the ‘remaining to due’ field is including the weekends as well even though the Maintenance Calendar excludes weekends.For example: The start date in the maintenance trigger is set to 23/02/2026 and the WO generation lead time is set to 1. The expectation is the Due Date should be considered as 20/02/2026 and automatically generate the WO based on the database task scheduled which does not work.But in the Maintenance Plan, the remaining to due field shows the number of days as 3 including the weekends. If we have the WO generation lead time as 3, then I’m able to trigger the WO using database task. I believe the due date and remaining to due fields must exclude weekends as per the calendar but can someone please confirm if this is the expected behavior?
We are trying to figure out how we can determine what projections are being used by our various groups. This will help us in our prioritizing validation efforts in our next upgrade. We see the most recently used applications upon login. I noticed that those are the same across browsers, so I doubt those are kept locally. If they are kept in a table, we could mine that over time and correlate that to different user permission sets to get a better picture.Has anyone ever figured out how to mine this data?
Hello, we have a situation where we send material to a supplier and they provide us with a credit (i.e. no physical parts). The process can take months and we want to know how much is at the supplier waiting for credit. Ideally, we would have a purchase part (non-inventory) created on the purchase order line, be able to issue materials randomly. Once the supplier has assessed the materials they determine the credit and report back to us. So there is no correlation between the material sent and the amount of credit received. While the material is at the supplier we would like to have the visibility of the material in our outside processing warehouse. When the PO is received for credit, all the material issued to that line would be backflushed from the outside processing warehouse.We are on IFS Cloud 24R2Thanks in advance.
