Dear IFS ColleaguesIn our comparison between IFS Applications 10 and IFS Cloud, we noticed that the report PURCHASE_ORDER_RECEPTION_REP appears to no longer be used in IFS Cloud, while ARRIVAL_REPORT_REP seems to be triggered instead during the receipt process.In Apps10, the Register Arrival process was used specifically for Purchase Orders. In IFS Cloud, however, the goods receipt process has been expanded to support additional object types, such as:RMA Repair RMA Shipment Order etc.Our assumption is that, due to this broader and more generic receipt process in IFS Cloud, the dedicated Purchase Order report (PURCHASE_ORDER_RECEPTION_REP) may have been deprecated and replaced by a single generic report (ARRIVAL_REPORT_REP) for all arrival scenarios.Is our assumption correct? If yes - are there any official documents where such changes are documentedBest Regards,Nikola

A correction invoice, Iis stuck in the printed status. Checked in Customer Invoices with Errors and it is showing up there, after pressing "Process Invoice" we get "Not Posted Invoices:" and returned Then looked at the Customer Invoice Postings Analysis page to see extra details. Every line has the same error: "ORA-20105: Invoice.ACCERROR1: Error (It is not allowed to modify a Sales Line after creating service invoice.) occurred while booking Invoice CR xxxx"This caused mean for some reason when the correction invoice is trying to modify the closed order? or is there any other reason?

The requirement is to create purchase orders based on the delivery address, which means, when converting purchase requisition lines (Originated from an internal customer order) to purchase orders, the orders should be created based on the addresses of the order lines. The following toggle “Group By delivery address” should be enabled before the conversion.  Test PlanCreate the external customer order with four order lines on the Demand site Line 1 & 2 have two different delivery addresses of the same customer (Single Occurrence) Line 3 & 4 have the same delivery address Once you release the order, it will create the internal purchase order in the demand site and also the internal customer order in the supply site. The supply site will be purchasing from an external supplier. The two single occurrence lines will be directly delivered using “Purch Order Direct” and the other two lines will be “Purch Order Trans” where the goods are delivered through the supply site. This is the

HelloWhen Purchase Type of Payment is "Normal" , supplier account department is able to use a tolerance of xx€ if they face a gap between the supplier invoice amount and the Recipts amount. When Purchase Type of Payment is "Stage", the tolerance is 0 € which imposes us to make a lot of modification (this is an internal extracost for Boccard)in the purchase order and receipts. We need to have the same tolerance in order to be smooth in treatement of invoices. Stage of PAyment are still mandarotry to manage terms of payments for components order with quantities different thant 1.How to implement this ? Kindly help me with this.

We would like to utilize W/D/R #s on parst/qty in a certain location for allow for more flexibility than Handling Units currently provide.  Is it possible to add W/D/Rs to several inventory lines/qtys at once of varying part numbers?If more info is desired:We have a control hold for quality to prevent the reservation of parts as parts are coming off our production line.  Quality would remove this ACI from several lines at once once inspection is done, but we’d like to allow them to add the W/D/R to the lines they are currently inspecting (to prevent more qty from appearing on that “inventory part in stock” line if production is still ongoing).  We wanted to add something like “Inspecting” as the W/D/R #.   We already attenoted adding a quality operation after ops was done, and it was not successful so we’re looking for a more flexibile solution. 

Normally when you create a customer order and then create an invoice the Income Type is fetched from the customer delivery address and added to the invoice lines Income Type field. But for single occurrences its not fetched correctly.  How to make the connection between single occurrence and the income type?   And then its fetched to the invoice lines But when you create a single occurrence on the co headerThe income type is not fetched. 

Is there a way to Receive a RMA  which has ownership consignment? we are currently getting the below error Below is the story behind this request  We have a customer who would like to use their own labels for their deliveries. To create these, we need to process the order via Shipments, not via standard delivery notes. User created an order (G1159224) and then generated the shipment (14614) from it. When she went to print the labels, she realized she had forgotten to create the Sales Part Cross Reference for the parts. She rectified this by adding lines to the order with the sales part cross-reference and then dragging these into the shipment. However, she forgot to cancel the incorrect lines (those without a sales part cross-reference). She then finalized the shipment and realized that she had delivered most of the parts twice. Now she has to book back everything via an RMA (13536 and 13542). For some parts, this isn’t a problem, but she has also accidentally delivered consignment par

We are In the Business Opportunity trying New Sales Quotation.  When I try to complete the New Sales Quotation, I get the error Resource Not Found. Any suggestions on what could be causing this?

Hi All,What is the normal process if a configuration needs changing on a customer order line where a pegged purchase order exists?Is it to cancel the line, recreate, then add the new requisition to the existing Purchase Order, or is there a way the configuration can be changed on the customer order line and replicated on the connected purchase order line?Cheers,Jamie

Hello, Could someone please explain how Customer Schedule Reconciliation using Delivery Note is supposed to work please?I've tried several scenarios but I still can't understand the expected behavior.For example, I made two deliveries:Delivery Note X Delivery Note YMy customer then sends a new schedule containing Delivery Note X only because they have not yet received Delivery Note Y.From my understanding, when I run the reconciliation process, the system should adjust the received schedule based on Delivery Note Y (which has already been delivered but not yet acknowledged by the customer). However, nothing happens. Even the 'Reconciled Qty Due' field remains empty after I run the reconciliation.Am I misunderstanding how the Delivery Note reconciliation works? Could someone explain the expected behavior and under which conditions the schedule quantities are actually adjusted?Any explanation or example would be greatly appreciatedThank you, Lina

We are experiencing a date shift when customer order/IPD dates default to midnight and the order is processed between sites in different time zones.Sites involved:* Main order site: Central Time* IPD order site- Eastern TimeExample:Main order:* Order: XXX* Planned/Target Delivery Date: 7/10/2026 11:00 PM CDTIPD order:* Order: S4454336* Site: CLEObserved result:The date appears to shift from 7/10/2026 to 7/11/2026 at 12:00 AM when the IPD is created for CLE. Since 7/11/2026 is a weekend, the planned delivery date is then moved to 7/13/2026.This causes the main order and IPD order to have different delivery dates. It is also causing incorrect dates in downstream reporting.Business impact:Approximately 300 order lines per day are showing incorrect EST / ETA dates.Questions:1. Is this expected behavior in IFS Cloud 25R1?2. During cross-site IPD creation, does IFS convert dates between site time zones?3. Does IFS apply calendar/weekend adjustment after the timezone conversion?4. Is there a

Hello, I am looking into the Export control. As I remember in App9 or App10 version when I am trying to set up export control for Customer orders (Inventory Part type purchase) when connecting the license I had to create a supplier for purchase part and define the export control codes in there.In App9, in the connection log it shows the user that you need to create supplier for purchase part and define those export control basic data if you haven’t defined them. And in that version both Part catalog export control data and supplier for purchase part export control data required in order to fully connect the license.But in Cloud 23R1 version, even when I didn’t define any supplier for purchase part export control data, system allows me to connect the master part export control type and approve the entire license. In previous versions if we only connect one it appeared as “Partially connected”. Did something changed after moving to cloud? I assumed since my sales part type is purchased s

Hi Community Team,Does anyone know why a CTO Part does not display Costing Information on a Sales Quotation (UNLESS I reserve and/or Allocate when running Capability Check)? The scenario is that they are making a CTO Part, they enter it in a Sales Quotation, run Capability Check (without reserving or allocating), and want the costs to be displayed on the Line.       BUT - If I change my Capability Check to “Allocate Only”, then I get a cost.  See images below:   Best,

Hi,Has anyone used the ECCN identifier in IFS?  Currently there doesn’t seem to be a place for this in the Item Master or other supporting tables.  If you have, how did you work around this?   We need to have it appear on certain outbound documents.

Hi, all. We are currently in project for implementing IFS Cloud for Aviation Maintenance.We need to set up the ECCN(Export Control Classification Number) on part master and control on the system to comply US EAR regulation but we could not find the appropriate field to output on shipping document. Could somebody advise us if there is appropriate field for ECCN? Thanks,Tomoya

How can IFS process a DESADV message in Incoming Dispatch Advice that contains a full packing structure of handling units from a 3rd party external supplier? How do we create these handling units in the system and process them with the supplier's labels?We are implementing IFS Cloud 26R1 and have suppliers that send an Advance Ship Notice (ASN / DESADV) via EDI before the physical delivery. The DESADV includes a full packing hierarchy: individual parts are packed into boxes, boxes are stacked on pallets, and each level carries a barcode. We want IFS to:1. Read the packing hierarchy from the DESADV and create the corresponding handling units automatically (no manual HU creation at the dock).2. Retain the supplier's handling unit numbers on the handling units encoded in the barcode so we can scan them at the dock without any relabeling3. Process the receipt using those handling units.Is this supported natively in IFS Cloud 26R1, and what does the configuration and process look like? 

When a Shop Order is Infinite Scheduled (unscheduled by MSO) the Operation Start and Stop Times are consecutive. Each operation step is to begin when the one prior completes.When I run MSO, the last operation step is not scheduled to begin right after the one prior. The first 2 operation steps are “Set Up” and “Test Piece” and have machine set up times. The last operation step (COA) is the actual production run and uses machine run factor.Each operation uses the same work center, resource and labor class. Each shop order is backward scheduled. The only interesting thing I have found is that the first 2 operations, when scheduled by MSO, are scheduled to run at the Start Date and leaves the 3rd operation step for a day before or day of the shop order finish date. What am I missing here? 

An aerospace and defence Customers Quality department have raised an issue as below  -1) When an Item gets expired IFS displays the expiry date in inventory part in stock screen as well as the item can be visible as expired from the Inventory part lobby. This is perfectly fine.2) However this item according to Aerospace Defense industry global standards should be immediately triggered for disposition . In IFS system such items are only flagged and there is no automatic creation of an MRB case.Is there an out of the box standard solution for this without any configurations or event actions ?

We sell product quite frequently to cash customers. IFS does not seem to support One Time Only Customers with Customer Orders, and from what I can see Instant Invoices do not work with inventory parts. What are others doing to get round this issue?

Dear IFS Support Team,We have the following question regarding an intercompany scenario in IFS Cloud and would like to clarify whether this represents standard behavior or an unexpected system issue.Initial situation:An external customer order is created at site 160, this triggers the following objects:Internal purchase order at site 160 Internal customer order at site 100 (including DOP)Scenario:When changes are made to the internal customer order or the DOP (e.g. price or delivery date) at the supplying site (100), an Incoming Purchase Order Confirmation is correctly generated.This confirmation can then be accepted at the ordering site (160).Issue:After confirming the Incoming Purchase Order Confirmation, the internal purchase order is not updated accordingly (e.g. delivery date or price).Comparison:If the same change is made directly on the external customer order (site 160), the internal purchase order is updated automatically as expected.Question:Is this behavior intended in stand

I’m trying to use Supplier Schedule/Customer Schedule for internal communication between sites. It’s unclear to me on how to handle already delivered lines on the supplying site that haven’t been received bij the demanding site. 

Good afternoon,we updated our IFS to 25R2 since 2 weeks now and I realized a sudden change, that customer orders are falling more frequently into Blocked status due to credit limit being exceeded. The Credit limit is not new to us, but I am surprised how customer orders that have been shipped will still fall on blocked status.I noticed this because the Incoming Delivery Notifications go into status Stopped.In my opinion, if an order is released and free to be shipped, the credit check should not be applied to those orders anymore. The check should only happen at the Release stage. Anybody else having this experience with 25R2? I couldn’t find anything in the release notes, so I am not sure if it’s a bug or intended by IFS.
