Service (Touch Apps, MWO, MRO)

Hi In the MWO Service App (Version:26.1.3375.0), the customer contact’s mobile number is not displayed, only office phone is displayed on the Work Task Details page, even though it is maintained in the Customer Master.Any guidance from the community would be greatly appreciated to help determine whether this behavior is expected by system design, or driven by configuration, or a known defect. Thank You

Hi,we are currently deploying IFS Scan It on Zebra Android devices (Android 14+) in a shared-device environment managed via SOTI MobiControl. We have identified a critical technical issue during the FIDO2/NFC authentication flow that prevent a successful rollout:When IFS Scan It initiates an authentication request for a FIDO2 security key (USB), the Android Credential Manager provides the user with the option to create a local screen lock or a device-bound Passkey: In our shared-device environment, it is critical that users do not have the option to set private PINs or Passkeys on shared hardware. This leads to accidental lockouts and high administrative overhead. We have already encountered the issue of some users setting a PIN on shared devices. Could you kindly confirm whether there is a plan to fix this issue?

Hi,We noticed that we cannot login into TouchApps using our local admin accounts. But end users can access it without any issues. below error occurred when we try to log in.  any suggestions to fix this?

Hi All,We’re seeing some pretty severe performance hits with our Zebra Handhelds since upgrading from Apps 10 to IFS Cloud.These devices are android based and using the scanit app.It appears that if the scanner sits for 48 hours, when it is used again the WaDaCo actions take about 15-18 seconds to respond (each scan or “click”).Our fix is to reimage the device. It then works fine until they go unused again. Then they slow down.These things were rock solid in Apps 10. So this is a bad look for us with the upgrade.Any advice is greatly appreciated.Thanks,Mike  

Hi All,When we have an Incompleted assignment in a request work task, the request work task cannot be transferred to “Work Done” status automatically even after we completed a different assignment with the same resource. We can mannually change the request work task status at from the header.Is this the built functionality?  TIA.

Hello Experts,We are currently working on IFS 24R1 and have encountered an issue in Request Management → Work Task, specifically under the Material tab when using the Reserve/Unreserve → Reserve option [Service Management → Request Management → Request Task Handling → Request Work Task → Material Tab → Reserve/Unreserve → Reserve].Although the required part is available in one of the warehouses linked to the Site, the system does not allow reservation from this warehouse if it is not the same remote warehouse as specified on the Work Task. It throws an error and restricts reservation unless the part is available in that exact remote warehouse.However, I am able to reserve the same part using the Reserve Manually option under the same menu path. The issue is that the system does not automatically pick and reserve from other warehouses linked to the Site that have

Hello,I am looking for a setting that we may have missed in IFS CLOUD for a feature that we had in IFS V8.In V8, when creating a new Work Order, Pre Postings are not populated, but they are automatically populated when connecting to a project.In IFS CLOUD, Pre Postings are not populated when connecting to a project.However, if we add a task to a Work Order, it inherits Pre Postings in a fully automated manner.It seems that the activity sequence that does not automatically integrate into the Pre Posting line when connecting to the project is missing.How can I have Pre Posting automatically populated when connecting to the project?Thank you in advance.Barth 

Hello,In IFS Cloud 25R1, we can reserve materials from a technician’s truck with certain quantities against a Request Work Task in the Service Management module. Using Transport Task in IFS Cloud, we can move the reserved quantity from one technician’s truck to another technician’s truck.We are looking for a similar functionality in MWO (ServiceEngApp) but from the ‘Move Stock’ screen using the ‘Add Transport Task’ functionality, it only allows to move the Available stock from one truck to another truck. It does not show the reserved quantities in a Request Work Task to be moved to another truck. Is there an out of the box method or work around to achieve this scenario? Please let me know.

Hi all,Can we please confirm the expected / recommended approach for using the “Dispatcher attention” style options within the MWO, as there seems to be some overlap between them and we want to make sure we’re using the right one in the right scenario?Specifically, within the MWO we have both: Set Attention On / Off (which sends an alert that attention is required, highlights the Resource in the Gantt chart, and can include an “Attention Note”) and Highlight to Dispatcher (which adds Highlight Text against the Work Assignment, and displays in Dispatch Console / PSO Workbench as an Exception)

Hi all,where can a Package part number actually be used?We trying to use a Package Part in the material Tab of a Request Work Task, but does not seem to work.It cant be added as a sales part in a contract line of a Request Contract as well.Can this somehow be used in anything else than a direct Customer Order?Thanks, 

Hi Team,We are facing an issue in the IFS MWO iOS mobile application.While completing a work order, the customer signature is captured successfully in the iOS app, but when we print or generate the Service Report, the Customer Signature section appears blank / not visible.Note:The same functionality is working correctly in the Windows mobile application.The issue occurs only in the iOS app. Platform: iOS (MWO App) / Client version: 24.1.19.20251203093724.0 Issue: Signature not shown in printed/exported Service Report Observation: Signature is visible in the app but missing in the output report (PDF/print) Has anyone faced this issue before?Attached screenshot for reference.

Hi all, I have a question regarding IFS MWO Services 10 application. This is regarding a dialog box with actions, and it needs to be removed (as a customer request)The Dialog box "Copy information from task" comes with "yes/No/Cancel" actions, every time we tap "Additional Work" in an existing work order. Could this dialog box be removed and set the action to a default of "yes" and process?

Hello,We occasionally run across some issues when Transferring task assignments to a tech’s MWO service app. The tasks are all Transferred to Mobile, but it sometimes gets caught and does not Download to Mobile. I checked if there are some background jobs preventing this...but nothing is currently running. Is there something else I should be checking or is there a task/batch update I can push to force the download to mobile?Thank you in advance

Hello, On work tasks, the inventory transactions are not reversing automatically out of WIP when the task is closed.  Time transactions on the same work task reverse out of WIP automatically when the task is closed.I used the Release WIP To Final Accounts + Check and Update Accounting to manually reverse one of the Inventory lines out of WIP. That worked correctly. Can anyone help with why the Inventory lines are not reversing automatically when the Work Task is set to Finished? Cost code rule settings:   Many thanks. 

Hello,While using the Service module > Work Task screen, we have the option to enter a Fixed Price line for a sales part from the Sales tab. Work TaskWhereas while using the Service Management module > Request Work Task screen, we do not have the option to enter the Fixed Price in the Cost Type dropdown. Is there a reason for removing this option from the list? If so, is there an alternative way to add the fixed price? Please let me know.Request Work Task

Hi IFS Team,The work task was completed on 28/12/2025 via the mobile work order; however, the status update in the IFS application was delayed by one day.We have an event trigger that executes when the work task status changes to “Completed.” Due to the delay in the status update, the related event trigger for “Sending report to User” was also delayed.Could you please advise on how this issue can be resolved to avoid such delays in the future?  

The sales part has already been added and the assigned work.  

Sales part already added and did work assigned still not working properly.

I have encountered an issue with custom fields in the MWO client. When I add an editable custom field under Task Information, I can successfully edit it from the MWO client. However, when I add the same custom field under Customer Information, I am unable to enter any value in that field using the MWO client. Apps for Page Designer MWO Service APP Is this expected behavior, or am I missing a configuration step? How can I make the custom field under Customer Information editable in the MWO client?Thanks Nethmini
