Is there any guidance on the types of requests that can & cannot be made via the IFS Service Centre? We have raised many ‘advice & guidance’ cases as Service Requests and we receive inconsistent responses to them. Sometimes the case owner is very helpful & other times we are told that a Consulting Request is required.Incidents & Consulting Requests are generally bit easier to define (i.e. it was working previously & now isn’t or seeking expertise to advise on new functionality/capabilities) but there seems to be a bit of a grey area between the around what is/isn’t covered by a Service Request. Some guidance on the limits of support would be useful.

I would like to verify my understanding regarding the below article. IFS Product - 23R1SU9 – Time registration page gives multiple errorsWe have currently version 23.1.8. If we install service update 23R1 SU10, then those time registration pages work even though we don’t have OBRM component, is that correct? 

Hi All,Within IFS you can copy certain lines, like in the Customer Order Line etc.But when trying to do so in the RMA (Return Material Authorization) Lines we get the error message :The value "Y" has incorrect format for [Systemparametersshortageflag] in ReturnMaterial Line.Does somebody know how to avoid this message and that the copy pasting truly works in the RMA Lines ?When you copy the line in an orderless RMA Return, I also see that it takes the RMA Line no. (Unfortunately it is not possible to adjust this), so I think this is related to the error message, but don’t know for sure. When you copy a Customer Order Line you can adjust the Line no. but in the RMA Lines it is not possible to adjust this. We are currently working in IFS Cloud 22R2 SU7.Looking forward to your reply.

Hi,We are using IFS10 update 15.Basic setup is so, that we have warehouse in different site than manufacturing is. Customer orders are entered to warehouse site and MS level 1 part is active in warehouse site. If there is a need to manufacture more to warehouse, system creates Distribution order to manufacturing site. Also purchase order and customer order between the sites are created automatically. In manufacturing site, they create Shop Order and then they do ’backwards pegging’. Sometimes, there is that situation that DO receipt date is two weeks ahead but production has possibility to produce earlier (SO need date is earlier than DO receipt date) → when they do ‘backward pegging’ correctly to SO, Why DO date is not changing ?   

Hi,I am testing Event/Event Action NOTIFY_NEXT_AUTH/Notify authorizers of invoices to be authorized next.The mail are sent successfully, however the mail in mailbox shows that the mail are sent from MAIL_SENDER not from User:  Please se below picture example, the mail I received is sent from MAIL_SENDER1, not from Finance center.Finance center is active User Id and person ID. Does anyone know what to do so the mail sent from in Outlook mail shows the user ID/User ID e-post address? 

Good afternoon, We are dealing with some old RMA’s that we want to book in for Italian Customers/Site. But now we receive the message : The new date must be equal to or greater than the start date of the latest period in the inventory value statistics. Can it be that this message is caused by Month or Year closing ?We can not receive the products anymore and we are completely stuck, because we don’t know which date we need to enter in order for us to move on and perform the transaction without an issue ! Looking forward to your expertise.
