Hi all,we plan to use FIFO valuation method for some companies/sites.While doing some testing on top of FIFO we see some challenges like:Intra-company transfers between sites when doing transfer from site using STD to site using FIFO with internal CO/PO, the FIFO bucket in receiving site is valuated by STD cost from the sending site to avoid any artificial profit/loss to be created during the transfer and ignoring any freight charges on the internal PO connected to the transfer Not possible to cancel internal receipts system is not allowing to cancel internal receipt when FIFO is used Recalculation of FIFO bucket cost history in case of a mistake I’m actually note sure if this is a pain (but I can imagine under some circumstances it could be), but it seems there is no system support to recalculate FIFO bucket cost history in case of a mistake (and I understand why since it might be quite complex exercise especially when having a lot of following receipts/issues after the
Enabling “Negative On-Hand Allowed” on the inventory part is a mandatory prerequisite for using the Catch Unit feature.However, during testing:configured an inventory part with Catch Unit enabled The “Negative On-Hand Allowed” option was not enabled I successfully completed the full Order-to-Cash process (CO → Shop Order → CO Delivery → Invoicing)No validation, warning, or error was triggered at any stage of the process.Concern:This behavior appears to contradict the documentation, which states that the setting is required.Is the “Negative On-Hand Allowed” parameter truly mandatory for Catch Unit usage? If yes, in which specific scenarios is it enforced? If not, should the documentation be updated to reflect the actual system behavior?Please advise on whether this is expected behavior or a documentation inconsistency.

Hello,I need help. The price of my supplier item link is no longer appearing in my distribution order, and I want this price to be transferred to the purchase order and sales order, as in the intercompany flow. Supplier for purchase part
There is a requirement for an Intercompany (IC) set up when the business unit operates in IFS Applications 8 and the manufacturing plant operates in IFS Cloud. Apps 8 raises an external Customer Order and an Intercompany Purchase Order; Cloud creates the internal trade Customer Order, manufactures, ships, and invoices. Anyone who has handled a similar requirement? since this is not possible without an integration customer will go for an integration set up, is using connect will be the best possible choice?What should be focused on when designing the solution in this direction? should we use purch order direct purch order transit rather than int purch dir and int purch transit if the customer and supplier is treated separately in different DBs?, tips and ideas are welcome :) (APP 8 BUs will come to cloud eventually but not now so this is an interim solution until all comes to cloud.)
We’re using Shipments in IFS to be able to consolidate lines from different customer orders that are shipping to the same customer location, that could all ship together to save our customers some freight costs. We’ve been trying to get IFS to send the customer order number, listed on the Shipment page on the Shipment Lines tab as “Source Ref 1” and to date, we have had no success. Has anyone had any success with getting fields mapped from the Shipment page over into PaceJet?
We build sub-components that we build in advance for a customer, sell it to them and then hold in our inventory until needed for production. Is there a simpler way to get this in our inventory as Customer-Owned other than sell and “deliver” on a Customer Order and the “buy” back on a PO?

Hello. I am new to IFS (several weeks) and am looking to implement Visual Planning. One of the key aspects of successfully maximizing machine load is to start the set up of one job while the previous job is finishing. To do this, I need visibility into the setup times of each job. We do not want more than one operation to plan by, so the goal is to get the visual on setup within the bar representing the total time on the job. Is there a way to do this?
Hi All,With regards to the new CBAM requirements coming into affect from Oct 2023, is there presently, a defined documented solution for this or is IFS planning to provide a solution (CBAM Reporting) for its customers?
Hello IFS Community,I’ve encountered a scenario in IFS Cloud 25R2 (and previous versions) where Automatic Matching on Supplier Invoice does not trigger for approved Milestone Stage Payments of Purchase Orders.After some investigation, it appears this is a known product limitation rather than a configuration error. To get this working, a product enhancement is required to support fully automated matching for these specific payment types.Has anyone else found a creative workaround for this, or should we rally together to upvote this as a formal Idea/Enhancement request? IFS.AI Analysis Summary of causeStage/milestone payments are handled as amount-only stage payments (they do not track receipt quantities), so supplier invoice matching does not use receipt quantity and therefore automatic matching against PO receipts won’t work as with normal (quantity-based) PO matching. Because stage payments don’t update invoiced quantities on PO receipts, the system cannot reliably compute or update
Hello everyone, Does anyone know if it's possible to set a default Freight Payer ID for each site? A customer is using the same forwarder for multiple sites under the same company. Do they need to create separate accounts since the sites are part of the same company? Thanks and regardsMaycon
Hello, if the purchase order is milestoned stage payment and invoice is also done but why we cannot see invoiced quantity and invoiced price in Purchase order lines screen
In non-project environments I’m used to seeing the inventory expiration events show in IPAP, but I’m not seeing it in our project based environment. Is this normal? They show up in the Open Supply and Demand orders window and the MRP Information but not IPAP. We are on Apps 10 Update 22

Hello, Why in the IPAP we find in need both “Customer Schedule Forecast” and “Master Schedule Unconsommed Forecast”. Do you have any explanation ? Because on the IPAP, the projected quantity is completely false.We work with IFS CLOUD-25R1.
Hi Community,We are trying to enforce the use of Purchase Order Change Order at the Supplier/Site level.To achieve this, we have configured the Purchase Order Authorization Rule so that No Changes Are Allowed After Authorization.However, after a Purchase Order is authorized, its status moves to Released, and the system still allows us to Cancel the Purchase Order without any blocking message or re‑authorization requirement.Logically, with this configuration, the system should either prevent the cancellation or require re‑authorization.According to IFS.AI, cancellation should not be allowed with this setup, but in practice this restriction is not working. Has anyone faced this issue or knows if additional setup is required to enforce cancellation prevention or trigger re‑authorization?Thanks in advance!
I have added a document text for the customer order but its not getting printed. I want to check if the correct Document Text is enabled for the document. What is the document name for the normal Customer Invoice?
I’m currently creating a workflow to update a price on a Customer Order Line as well as Purchase Order Line. The scenario is internal trade, where my trigger is state of Customer Order changes to “Delivered”.Then, I want to update my BaseUnitPrice on the COL with the Cost from the same COL. However, before patching the COL, I need to recalculate my price and currency to correctly update all prices on the COL.However, in DevTools I can see that manual edit and the command “Recalculate Price/Currency” both use the ValidateBaseSaleUnitPrice to calculate prices. My problem is that workflow doesn’t support this call as it contains ValidationRec, which is an array, as an input parameter.So, does anybody know how to recalculate my prices prior to patch in a workflow?
HelloThere is an issue where, after a change order has been updated to a PO, the PO still shows a box labeled 'Pending Changes.' The related change order status is 'PO Updated.' Has anyone else encountered this problem? Thanks,Raana
Hello everyone,when working in Forecast View in IFS Cloud, I receive the following warning message: I am trying to understand where these value should be filled in, because I cannot find any field for it in the usual locations.I already tries to find it in Sales Part and Inventory Part, but was unable to. So here is my question: Where exactly in IFS Cloud should the “Planned Sales Price” (used by Forecast View) be entered?I am interested in all the analitical views highlighed in red.If there you know of any source I could use to understand the values in yellow I would be greatfull as well.Any guidance or screenshots would also be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance!
Hi there.How do I connect a charge in kg to a sales part in pcs?We sell batteries in pcs, but we want to add a (environmental) charge calculated in the total weight of the sales part.I want to avoid creating unique charge type for each possible product weight. Example:Part A (Battery 12V 40A). Weight 12 kg.Part B (Battery 12V 60A). Weight 15 kgCharge Type “ENV_FEE_KG”. Price 0,5 EUR per kgI want to connect the same Charge type to both part A and B.And that charge will calculate cost separetly for both parts.Lets say I want to sell 3pcs each.(12 kg x 3 pcs=36 kg15 kg x 3 pcs = 45 kgCost line 1: 36 kg x 0,5 EUR = 18 EURCost line 2: 45 kg x 0,5 EUR = 22,5 EUR) Warm regards Andreas
We have a shop order that cannot be closed because material was pegged to another shop order. The material was removed from the shop order, but the connection remained for some reason. Now I cannot close the shop order as I get an error which instructs to remove the pegging first, but I cannot do it, as the material line no longer exists in the pegged shop order. Is there a way to force the pegged quantity of a shop order to 0?
Dear All, I am working on Export Control for Customer Order, and the function can control “Order Country” and “Customer Country”. I would like to control Country of Origin at the time the line is created looking at the inventory part record and at the time the part is reserved/picked looking at Lot Batch Master Country of Origin.Exemple, a part manufactured in Korea sent from a site based in UK can’t be delivered in JAPAN. Any idea ? RegardsPatrick
