Hi all,After the latest Windows May update, some users are no longer able to log into IFS Apps 9. They are receiving an error stating that the login service is unavailable. After some investigation, we found that this is caused by Microsoft's hardening of Kerberos Authentication. We are currently in the process of migrating to IFS Cloud, but we still need to use Apps 9 until January 2027.We managed to temporarily resolve the issue by adding a registry key, but this workaround will only work until the June update. After that, we either have to find a permanent fix or stop installing updates.Has anyone else encountered this issue, and if so, how did you fix it? The only long-term solution we can think of is creating a new account and a new keytab file, and then reconfiguring IFS Apps 9 to use them. If anyone has an easier workaround, we would love to hear it!
Does anyone know if it's possible to link the IFS database to Microsoft Fabric?https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/database/mirrored-database/open-mirroringWe're currently using the self hosted bi, but I can't say that's a perfect solution so we're looking for better alternatives.

We have a Boomi integration that runs Shop Orders from MES to IFS that we are migrating from IFS APP10 to Cloud. The issue that we are having is from creating and completing the Manual Inventory Receive. Our Boomi integration worked correctly in APP10 but now shows that it is successful in Boomi while IFS does not receive any Inventory. Our IFS Connector in Boomi for creating the uses ReceiveShopOrderHandling as the projection and Reference_InventoryReceipt as the object. It seems that the Reference_InventoryReceipt object is outdated and I have been attempting to replace it with ReceiveShopOrderSet->InventoryReceiptArray as that is what I see being used in logs when going through the Manual Inventory Receive process in IFS Cloud. When trying to run the new Connector in Boomi, we get an error saying "Failed processing original documents i2i in the IFS Cloud Connection connector: java.lang.Exception: All the keys should be given as input parameters". The Objkey is being set using Bou
In IFS Cloud 24R2, when starting from a service quotation, the preposting can be added after quotation acceptance in the "Prepare Work Order" step.However, when using work task templates added in the service quotation, the tasks already exist in the flow, and the preposting from the work order header is not inherited by these tasks. As a result, preposting must be manually added to each individual task.Is there a way to resolve this issue or apply a workaround?
Hi,do you have any idea, how to implement OAuth2 Authorization Code Flow integration in IFS Aurena? We need to create integration with bank, where is only Authorization Code Flow possible (logging to account, approval in mobile app, configuration, granting priviledges, ...).At this point, I have no idea, how to prepare callbackUrl for accepting GET request with strictly defined URL parameters.Is there any manual how to prepare own SVC not depending on OData protocol?Or use something like /soapgateway to receive and store incomming GET request? Authorization Code Flow
Hello, I am hoping to find information about the add-on to Cloud for the Freight Interface and Credit Card Integration. We are currently on Apps 10 and have these extensions, but are in the first phase of Build and Verify to upgrade to Cloud (24R1) and have not yet applied them to our Cloud environments. Our partner needs additional details to support the upgrade and IFS Support has directed me to the community for answers. 1. What are the artifacts here, change to the solution set, new entities, utilities, etc under a new module, a new k8s container? From our current 24R1 solution set we don’t see anything that suggests that credit cards or freight integration is something that exists. As part of the technical upgrade process, we need to make sure that the database artifacts exist, so this is critical to the process.2. What are the supported IFS release versions? We are doing B&V on 24R1. We do plan to do a release update as part of the plan, but we need to know what the min
When we have defined some conditions in an Event action they work fine in the environment in which they were defined. But when they are exported and imported again as an ACP, (as xml files or a Zip file) we’ve noticed that the conditions stops getting evaluated and the Actions are run regardless what is in the conditions.For example, say we have below event action with below condition, and it was created by importing it from an ACP. Then despite what is in the condition it will execute what is in the Action Details.However, if you open this event Action in the application and do a fake modification to the Condition and do a re-save the issue is gone and the Events are only executed if the conditions are satisfied.When investigating further we realized that this is due to a discrepancy in the NEWLINE character when Event Conditions are saved in the database. When importing the ACPs through an xml it saves the newline characters in the Condition_type and Condition_Value fields as ‘\r\n’
Currently we have Azure AD set up as the identity provider. Are we able to configure a second identity provider to work simultaneously for Apps 10?Product Version: UPD16

Hi,Let’s say I have a main agreement with a fixed contract value. And there are a few subordinate suppliers with a different value altogether covering that main agreement value.Is there any functionality available within supplier agreement where I can link those sub agreements to the main one and track all the deductions?Main Agreement - $100Sub Agreement 1 - $50Sub Agreement 2 - $20Sub Agreement 3 - $30 If I raise a PO for Sub agreement 2 (let’s say $10) the same amount should be deducted from main agreement also.
Is it possible to pass data into IFS via the querystring on returning to a page?As an example, we break out of IFS into a custom app, once we have finished working in that app, we press a button in that app, and it returns to the work order in IFS, however, we might want to pass a comment back to a comments field in IFS, such as “blah blah blah” into a custom Notes field.The comment would be in the query string returning to the IFS.I feel like this wont’ be possible… any thoughts ?
User is attempting to export IFS data into MS Project. This function worked in apps 9. We are using Cloud 24r2 now. IS this function deprecated?Product Version: 24.2.20
Does anyone have presentation on latest IFS Cloud Navigation? The latest one with IFS cloud screenshots of UI.
25.1.2I have seen this shortcoming in many pages, but here I am focusing on the material transactions on a Shop Order.In Shop Order History, in the Material Transactions tab there is a Notes field. This cannot be edited; the user cannot enter a note against a transaction. One would think this would be the proper place for the user to enter a note explaining why the part was unissued from the order.Why does this field exist? Is information only entered here by the system when a transaction occurs?
Hello everyone, I’m trying to navigate to a specific node in a tree through development and tried a few things but the solution wasn’t ideal, here is my scenario and solutions I tried so far:The tree is composed of three levels:Root - ContractLevel 1 - System IDLevel 2 - Subsystem ID I’m trying to navigate to a specific subsystem id node, so when the page is open the subsystem id node is already highlighted and the nodes above it is expanded like the image below: I’m using the parameter &filter passing Contract but I can’t pass System Id and Subsystem Id because they aren’t part of the root node. I tried using &treefilter where I put a searchcontext in my tree and this navigation “works” because it filter the list to the right but it doesn’t highlight the node I want and if I click in another node it doesn’t show anything because the values are still applied in the searchcontext. I tried using &searchcontext but nothing happens, maybe I’m using the wrong syntax in the URL
Hi, Does anyone know if IFS Cloud 23R2 or above is going to support the Microsoft Graphic API to send email? Utilization of this API would allow us to eliminate a mail relay setup. Microsoft Graph API Information Regards,William Klotz
Hi, we have enabled Grafana in IFS Cloud using the IFS documentation, but other than this introduction https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/21r2/020_installation/010_installing_fresh_system/030_preparing_server/56_metrics_monitoring/ there doesn’t seem to be any overview of the existing dashboards and how to interpret them. Currently, the Grafana experience is very overwhelming and it is hard to understand how to use the different dashboards to find relevant information. Are there any additional guides about Grafana, and how to interpret the different IFS Cloud dashboards it comes with?
Hi,Just Curious, Is there any way in IFS Cloud to track page configurations done by users, such as which configuration was changed, which projection it belongs to, and when it was changed?Any way to track it through the backendThanks in advance
Hello, I am trying to customize the Navigator.I have a some new pages in module SRVCON which are located under a core navigator entry. But I want to have it under a new navigator parent entry all together so I tried this:Customizing the core Navigator.client file:So I have defined ma parent in here and then in my own Client-file I want to use that parent,but all I get is this error:Seems like the compiler does not generate or not recognize the new navigator entry that I made.I checked documentation, but could not figure out that I miss something.
We are using PSO 6.16.0.61 with FSM Smartclient. We deploy distribution (delivery) drivers as well as technicians to customer locations. Only technicians are being scheduled in PSO. All active technicians have assigned shifts in PSO and are in rotas. However there are times when technicians are driving delivery trucks (random days) on days when they also have their normal tech shifts in the PSO rota - as desired, they aren’t getting any service work because the truck selection they make at logon via mobile to FSM relates to a non-tech skill (techs must have the appropriate technician truck skills in order to get work assigned through PSO).The problem is that in the scenario above the team that oversees review of the PSO Scheduling Resource Gantt just sees technicians with schedulable shifts, logons and logoffs, but no assigned work when the tech is driving a delivery truck (since delivery work not assigned through PSO without appropriate truck skill).What is a good way to change the vi
