Data Migration

I am trying to run a migration job to the customer credit limit table. I am using the excel add-in tool. We have to update some customer credit limits in bulk. The problem is the job keeps telling me that I am trying to update the PARTY_TYPE and that I’m not allowed to. I do not care to modify the party type, as it should remain Customer. I have tried to modify the migration job by eliminating the source code (column) for Party_Type and/or Party_TypeDB, and set up defaults as “CUSTOMER’ and ‘Customer’ and all possible combinations of such. No matter what, the system is convinced I am trying to “update” the party type, when all I want to do is update credit limits. Any advice or resources? This is for IFS Cloud 24R1. I was pointed to IFS Apps 10 - IFS Data Migration Excel Add-in Overview and Demo | GoToStage.com and Excel Migration - Technical Documentation For IFS Cloud for resources, but these have not been able to assist me with this particular issue. Thank you!

We are trying to migrate Open stock  which I am trying to do using migration job , the data is loaded successfully and can see it under “Inventory Parts in Stock “, what are the next steps to transfer the balance to GL please? I am trying “ Transfer Inventory Transactions “  option but I can’t see any transactions generated ,is there a step in between I am missing here to generate the inventory transactions so that they can be transferred to GL? I can’t see any data under Inventory transaction history as well so looks like I am missing a step here  

I am using Excel add-in for data migration most of the time no issues.in a few examples i need to do some data retrieval/lookup and have used an expression in the ‘default value’ column in the migration job.However, as yet i am struggling to do the same with a simple SQL select. Is it not possible or is my syntax incorrect. I have no guidance so I am making it up as a I go, I could be doing it incorrectly.I did write a select first in quick reports to prove it was correct, although it is so simple I did not really need to.When I click validate or execute - I don’t get any feedback, (the debug feature does not work) - but if I remove the select my other data updates - so something about my approach is failing. Thank you for any suggestions!  

I’m looking for some sort of materials to get trained on how to use the excel add-in tools for data migration. Would love to learn more about designing migration jobs, setting defaults, strategy, and more. I can’t seem to find anything on Community or Academy for resources. Where do you go to learn?

Hi,I recently got a new 25R1 repository in IFS Scope Tool and I downloaded the 25R1-Data Tracker Template File.What I found is that values are missing in Basic Data sheet - column K (Global/Company/Site). This is very valuable information for us since we are going to implement IFS to a multi Country/Company solution.Also we are also missing the entire Master Data Tracker sheet.My question is if there will be a second release of 25R1 Data Tracker Template including the missing values and the Master Data sheet?Kind Regards,Christian 

Dear Experts, I’m trying to build an Excel Migration job that would need to:create some functional objects - EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_API apply a parameter template after the functional object is created - Asset_Param_Template_Util_API.Apply_TemplateBelow is the Medthod List The problem I have is how to pass EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_SEQ when applying the parameter template.This method expects EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_SEQ which is created by method 10 - EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_API. However it seems that at the point of executing method20 the equipment_object_seq is not available.In Mig Jobs - migrate source data it was possible to set a COMMIT rule - I was thinking if such a thing is possible for Excel migration - for example to commit after each method. Any ideas how I could fetch the equipment_object_seq created through method 10?​@dsj ​@Jens When I try to validate the Mig Job data in Excel I get no result / no error either. When I execute I also get no result. It’s like nothing happens. If I remove method20 and it

Hi CommunityI have created a Excel Migration for Invoice planning screen.I have given the default value for Invoice sequence- Every time when I load the data to excel the field gets too wider, is there any way to adjust the column width in excel and also to remove the timestamp? Thanks in advance,Thean

We are on IFS Cloud 25.1.2.  Microsoft just forced updated Office to 2507 (19029.20136) which broke our IFS Excel add-ins.  Users that stayed on 2506 are still OK.Issue is, when you click login, the add-in panel briefly flashes and does not bring up the login window for IFS cloud.Anyone else have this issue? 

Hi.There’s an existing thread on this with a fix here, but following it I was unable to get the migration job working and I’m still receiving the same error. We’re aiming to update only the CODE_F field with a migration job, but running the MIGRATE_SOURCE_DATA job after the CREATE_TABLE_FROM_FILE results in the ORA-20111: Site.NOTEXIST2: The Site object does not exist. error for every line in the file. As  mentioned in the post above, I’ve attempted to add the CONTRACT field into the file mapping, but sadly it has not solved the issue. Any help here would be appreciated.  

We have an existing migration job that worked until Update 20 was applied. The job adds lines to a sales quotation. Now the lines are added successfully only for rows where the customers price list has a value in the Discount Type field for the part in question. The job looks like this:The error returned is “Field [DISCOUNT_TYPE] is mandatory for Order Quote Line Discount and requires a value.”. The migration job doesn’t currently include a method list entry for the Order Quote Line Discount view so it isn’t possible to add a default value for this field: What we would like is to be able to add a default value if there isn’t one on the price list. Is there a way of doing this?

Hi all.My client is upgrading fron IFS App 10 to IFS Cloud 24.2.In IFS Apps 10 they share the consults that are saved with others users and it is a good functionality for them. They asked me if this functionality is allowed in Cloud and I do not find anything related to that.So, is it possible to share the bookmarks? I’m not meanning to export/import functionality between profiles but share the bookmark when you set it up.

Hi All, I’m having an issue with migrating persistent custom fields using the data migration manager. Seems like the objid and version in the deployment container is not passing even if I set it to in scope and  set auto generated flags on.in the deployment container it doesn't show the generated objid and version once the master record is deployed. this is related to part catalog (master part). master record deployed correctly but not the custom fields.  am i missing anything here or do we have any issues migrating custom field data using the DMM ? IFS cloud 24R2 Kind Regards!Niyo 

Hi, I would like to update the list price in the view SALES_PART with the data migration. When i try, i have the same message on everyline when i launch the MIGRATE_SOURCE_DATA: ORA-20122: SalesPart.UPDATE: Field [CATALOG_TYPE] in Sales Part may not be modified. The value of [CATALOG_TYPE] is ‘NON’. Is it possible to proceed so ? Thank’s Julien.    

Hi.We’re hoping to create an OnServer CREATE_OUTPUT_FILE type migration job that would return all active employees in our organization, including the address data for their listed company work locations. Work location data already exists in the table, but the address data for the work location doesn’t. This is a copy of an older migration job that returns other employee results, and based on that I’ve created a SELECT statement in the File Mapping tab as follows: (SELECT ADDRESS FROM IFSAPP.PERS_COMMS4 WHERE COMPANY_ID = IFSAPP.COMPANY_PERSON.COMPANY_ID AND PERSON_ID = IFSAPP.COMPANY_PERSON.PERSON_ID) With this query, the job runs but returns only partial results and the following error: ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row As I understand it the Address field is a concatenation of multiple Address fields (Address1, Address2 etc). Is there a viable workaround this issue due to the nature of the Address field?I’ve also attempted a JOIN clause in the Database Informat

Hi All,  We are looking to get some basic data setup (Even if it’s just dummy data) in build placeWhen the environment  expires we lose a lot of time setting the basic data up for testing. Does anyone have experience with setting it up so when we build a new environment it already has data. We believe this is possible but we are struggling to get the process set off. ThanksCameron

Hello Everyone,I was trying to upload a user list using the “Insert or Update” procedure with the view name “FND_USER.” The users were uploaded successfully, but the user email and language fields were not included.Could someone please guide me on how to upload these fields along with the other user data?

Is there anyone here that uses IFS and connects it to Salesforce? I have so many questions about this integration and why certain fields don’t map as expected. We are using the Address Type in IFS to map to certain fields in Salesforce based on the Default Address value, but certain records aren’t getting updated as they should. I did notice that some records in Salesforce don't have the document address populated if the Latitude and Longitude in Salesforce doesn’t match IFS but that doesn’t seem to be consistent enough to me. Thoughts on this anyone?

Dear Community, We are looking for an expert in "migration jobs." The goal is to develop a migration process—specifically an "Excel migration"—to generate a manufacturing control plan (header + lines) from an Excel file, which itself is an export of the definition plan.!--startfragment>This approach aims to eliminate manual data entry, thereby reducing the risk of typos and saving valuable time.!--endfragment>!--startfragment>So far, we’ve successfully generated the header of the control plan (seq 10 in the job). However, the task becomes more complex when it comes to generating the individual data points.!--startfragment>Several views are involved in the process, and I’m currently feeling a bit lost navigating through all of them.!--endfragment>!--startfragment>!--endfragment>Has anyone here already implemented a migration job for creating manufacturing control plans (applicable version : 8) ?!--endfragment>!--startfragment>Thanks in advance

Hello everyone,I'm trying to migrate customer orders and customer order lines. Everything's working fine, no problem. However, I'm trying to migrate the CODE_C of the lines using another job for pre_accounting, and retrieving the pre_accounting_id of a line, but I get an error I don't understand: ORA-20111: Site.NOTEXIST2: The Site object does not exist.Strange, because in the job, this indication does not appear, and only the pre_accounting_id seems mandatory.   How can I make these jobs work easily?
