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 It seems that the Reference_InventoryReceipt object is outdated and I have been attempting to replace it with ReceiveShopOrderSet-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 IFS Community,I have a question regarding the Authorization Parameters for Posting Proposal in the Supplier Invoice Workflow.Configuration in our company: Authorization Routing : Use Consecutive Authorization Two Authorizers Required : Enabled (Checked) Amount that requires two authorizers : 50,000.00 EXlude Posting Authorization : Not checked Scenario:I am processing a supplier invoice with the following details: Invoice Amount: 12,000 Purchase Order Amount: 11,000 Difference (Variance): 1,000 The Issue:Since the invoice amount (15,000.00) is below the defined threshold of 50,000.00, I expected the system to require only one authorizer (following the consecutive sequence). However, the system is still forcing two authorizers to approve the posting proposal sequentially (the first authorizer approves, but the workflow does not finish and continues to request a second authorizer).Are there any other parameters missing to get the expected behavior ? Any insights or troubles
I am using Cloud 25R1 and Customer Statements of Account are not sending, I think because the “Created From” account is set to IFSPRINT. It should be IFSCONNECT (see screencap). I don’t know how to change that, hopefully someone can help.

Hello everyone,I followed the provided instructions to install the Hierarchical Travel Matrix (HTM) in PSO. However, when I attempted to test if it is working properly through the compare tab, I only received results from the straight-line distance.Here are the steps I took after the installation:Created a new HTM connection through the Connections form. Added "BAL" in the value field for the HierarchicalDatabaseMatrixId parameter. Entered "Hierarchical Travel Matrix" in the field of the TravelCalculationOption parameter. Chose the "Straight Line On Error" parameter (I have tested even without this parameter checked). Enabled the HTM connection. HTM ConnectionPlease note that no errors were encountered during the entire process - not even in events.So, I would like to ask if the above procedure seems correct.Is there a way to verify if HTM has been configured correctly?Any insights or guidance would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!
Hi All,In the Report Rule action type PDF Insert from Document Management, it is possible to use filtering by Document classWe setup the report rule action like this: Idea is to print only the documents of document class ATT_INV with the invoice.But it looks like the Document class filter is ignored and all documents connected to the LU and with the KeyRef are added.And the documents are merged with no sorting order (some attached documents at the beginning and some at last) ignoring the InsertOption setting.Report preview opens multiple pdfs even with the MergeWithReport setting is onAre these bugs or has anyone used this functionality successfully? Best Regards,Damith
I was looking into the new Report Rules – PDF Insert from Document Management functionality, and I’m having some difficulties getting it to work.https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/25r2/050_reporting/000_reporting/251_operational_reporting/011_setup/070_report_rules/?h=report+rule#3_pdf_insert_from_document_management The pre-configuration for IFSWEBREPORT is correct, and the rule itself executes successfully. However, when previewing the resulting PDF, it is not merged with the file I specified.The business requirement is to merge multiple invoices for the same customer into a single PDF directly in IFS.I also have a few questions regarding DocumentNo and KeyRef:Are DocumentNo and KeyRef correlated, or are they independent? If I understand correctly, DocumentNo should allow me to filter in Document Management and identify the PDF I want to attach. Is that correct? Can I use a SELECT/query in DocumentNo to retrieve multiple invoices and merge their PDFs? Should KeyRef point to the current pr
