Hello,I am currently trying to run IFS Business Reporter and learn some of the basic, but when I try to pull data from my information sources, I have nothing returning. However, in IFS Cloud there are balances and data in the sources I’m pulling from. I’ve tried multiple different account type but always return a zero value. Is there some permission or setting somewhere in IFS that I need to update? Also, whenever I am putting in row repeaters, the only way that I can get any data at all to return to me is if I select the ALL checkbox on my Design Row Options. This isn’t what is described in the IFS Business Reporter training. Lastly, whenever I am trying to use the sheet repeater, a report that was otherwise working will break and no new sheets are created. Even if it’s an information source that I have already confirmed returns a value in other testing. 

Hello community, I have a question about family configuration management. I would like to know if in IFS, is it possible that we define options that condition the choice of other options?  As an example, supposing that we have 3 configutared parts for a phantom part (upper level) with a family configuration of 3 caracteristics; Color → options value C1 and C2Size→ options value S1 and S2Door→ options value D1 and D2 Part A→ with characterictics rules C1 and S1 and D1Part B→ with characterictics rules C2 and S1 and D2Part C→ with characterictics rules C2 and S2 and D2 What i want is, as soon as i choose value C1 for color, IFS do not display me anymore S2 and D2 as values to choose on other caractestics(size and door) in configuration creation menu by noticing that there is no such an option possible. Do not hesitate if my question is not clear enough. Thanks for your answers in advance Best regards  

Hi,I try to return a loan using the assistant “Create Return Material Authorization”, but I can’t see the line to be returned. I used this feature to return the asset at a different site with the new functionality in IFS Cloud. Note that it doesn’t work neither when we use “Return to Own Site” option.I wonder if the assistant is enabled to rental returns, and if the mentioned enhancement has been limited to sales only and disabled to outbound rentals.

We a getting several zero quantity records in Inventory Value per period where total inventory value is not zero.  I understand that the ROUNDDIFF transactions should balance these out at the end of the period but we are NOT getting ROUNDDIFF transactions.  We use the Inventory value per period screen as an audit record for inventory in stock.  Auditors do not like when zero * zero equals a dollar amount that is not zero at the end of the period.  SO I have a few questions:What are others doing for audit records of inventory values? If it is the inventory value per period screen, how are you explaining the total inventory value amounts when all quantities are zero What do you do when no ROUNDDIFF records are created?

I have seen a couple of other users raise this question but these were some time ago and the answers not really conducive to our environment.  I wonder if there has been any development on this for either Apps9 or in Cloud.   Our Scenario is that we ‘buy’ a KIT from our supplier and that is what we are invoiced for.  What we put into stock are 150 separate inventory parts.  So, yes, a reverse of the Customer Order/Sales ‘Package Parts’  functionality.  Any thoughts/suggestions gratefully received!
