 Hi everyone,I am working on a migration job where I need to copy the Functional Object from one site to another. The object id, site name changes; but the overall structure remain identical to the source site.I am attempting to use EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_UTIL_API.Copy_Functional_Object  in method list. However, I am unable to Copy the functional Object. I could have used only the EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_API to insert new one. But I also wanted to copy spares, Test points & Parameters, attributes from the existing one. So using “copy functional object” method.   

Hi, Please could you assist me, we have a factory at work, and we need to be able to display statistics on screens, (multiple screens) without using separate log ins. We don’t need any access to anything other than the data for the lobby view. Is this possible please?

Hi everyone, I am trying to import CONFIG_SALES_COMB_VALUES table into IFS via DMM. The table has SEQUENCE_NO column which is used to order different combination values. Records are ORDER BY SEQUENCE_NO ASC and they are imported from smallest to largest sequence.  So, I would expect to see 8 records, and they should be displayed in correct order. However, only 6 records are displayed in IFS in different orders.  Please help!

I am getting the following message when trying to complete an existing migration job Any help please

We are using the Migration Toolkit (mtk tables) to migrate from a legacy system to IFS Cloud. All is going well except for the material value of components issued to shop orders. For a given component, it can be issued to multiple shop orders at different values. The mtk lot serial table and the mtk material tables have fields for inventory value but what we put in these fields is ignored. Regardless of what we do, components are issued to the shop order using the inventory value on the inv part. Does someone have a process for migrating wip value when the component’s value can be different on different shop orders.

Hi, we have recently implemented IFS Cloud 24R2. In other words, we are quite new to IFS.It is important for us to be able to easily create Manual Vouchers in GL from an Excel template. External Vouchers and CSV files are not enough. We need to see any errors directly in the Excel document.Has anyone managed to use Excel Migration Job for this? 

Good morning,How can I configure file imports from a specific location, e.g., a network directory, using external file transactions in the IFS CLOUD system?I assume that I have a .csv file in a specific directory and the system has a schedule for reading the file from that directory.I am considering this in the context of currency imports and wondering whether it would be reasonable to use the file reader mechanism in this case.

Hi,I would like to import Quick Reports from IFS8 to IFSCloud.Importing a single XML file is successful. Is it possible to import all reports at once? For example, by packing XML files into a ZIP file?Thank you,Tomasz   

In the master part we are migrating 25.488 as the net weight for one of our parts. Somewhere along the line, it was changed to 25.488581893. Given the high number of decimal places, I suspect an automated calculation or a UOM conversion is at play.I tried to recreate this by creating a new part and going through all migration jobs but had no luck. I don’t believe this was changed manually by anyone although it's not off the table.I should note that this is only affecting a small portion of parts.Any ideas? 

Business Case:We have some migration jobs we want to run once a year. (some year incremental/YE jobs).In IFS we can schedule migration jobs, but only days, weekdays or interval of seconds,minutes, hours. Solution:We would like to be able to schedule on the first day of the month or year. 

Hi all,What are the options in migrating the counted qty using any migration method in IFS?I tried FND_MIG jobs with different procedures, but the issue is that I do not see the field (COUNTED_QTY) in the view INVENTORY_PART_PICK_SHIP_STOCK. What is needed here is to update counted_qty field.IFS Cloud 23R2  Thank you! 

Hi,We need to import Recurring Services using DMM. I’ve imported into recurring_service_program, recurring_service_scope and recurring_service_trigger. But in the Recurring Service Program screen, there is no data in the Scope tab and in the Item Information section of the General tab the Location is populated but the Model, Object and Object Site fields are empty. I can create Recurring Services from the front end and then data in the Scope tab is populated so it looks like I’m missing something with the migration. Are there more tables that I need to include to link the Object to the Recurring Service?All help appreciated. 

Hello Community!I’m writing today because I have noticed that, when I attempt to migrate Posting Control headers (POSTRING_CTRL) using Data Migration Manager, nothing seems to be migrated even though the tool seems to disregard or swallow the exception preventing the row to be inserted. Let me describe my problem in detail, hopefully you have seen this before:I tried to create an Inventory Positing Control for Location Group. That is, posting Type M1 (Inventory) and Control Type C83 (Location Group). I first tried to create it manually (just to make sure the row I’m testing works fine when using Aurena) and it worked well… I can insert this posting control using AurenaI proceed to remove this “test” Posting Control to prepare the system to receive the DMM data.

I’m trying to insert new Equipment Objects (View Name: Equipment_Object) which have three object levels — Operation, Area, and Local Area. All of these represent functional objects.For linking purposes, I’m assigning the fields Sup_Contract and Sup_Mch_Code with the parent’s contract and machine code values. To display & link them correctly in the Equipment Object Navigator as a tree structure, I set the default value of Functional_Object_Seq as:EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_API.GET_EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_SEQ(SUP_CONTRACT, SUP_MCH_CODE) However, when I select and execute all three levels together (using Excel migration), they don’t seem to link up but all the objects are

Hi,We have imported several thousand Request Contracts using DMM. They are at status ‘Planned’ and we want them to be Active. Is there any way that we can automate making these Active? Presumably we need to update objstate and/or state fields on sc_service_contract but these fields don’t seem to be able in the mapping. 

Hello;        I’m new to IFS & I’m quite surprised at the difficulty there is in changing a unit of measure. I’m a designer, & a portion of my former company was acquired by another who uses IFS. In the process there was a lubricant that got transferred & the unit of measurement was a pail. I’m not sure what the correct unit is but that wasn’t the unit it was supposed to be. Instead of being able to correct the unit, my main division of the company is saying the only thing we can do is create a new part no. with the correct unit of measure. This lubricant is used all over the place in 103 boms & 93 drawings which would have to be changed. Is this a limitation with IFS, & if it is, why would it be. I believe with our former system using CMS, we would have just revised the unit, & been done with it. I should add, it has already been used which seems to make it more of an issue.Thanks for any input in advance. SonDrum

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 

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.
