Data Migration

I will create and assign 19 end users an excel migration job that allows them to import purchase requisition lines into IFS from Excel.We have only 1 license for data migration excel add-on in our IFS 10 UPD 12. If I understand correctly, the end users who assigned to run a excel migration job don't need a license. We just need to grant them the permission set "FNDMIG_EXCEL_ADDIN" to run the add-in after they install the Add-on. Please advise if I am missing something.

I tried to create a migration job to update the values in the supplier view.I added this API method “IDENTITY_INVOICE_INFO_API.Modify__” and ran the job.I don't see any changes.Is there any recommendation on how to proceed?

Hi All,Is there a way to get access to Data Migration Server folder in Build Place DEV Environment?I know this is a short lived environment but there should be a way to access Data Migration database server folder in DEV(Build Place) so that customer can do data migration tests in several iterations and delete data whenever they require. 

Does IFS Data Migration Manger have built in Number series functions which can be used in the Input Container as Transformation Rules.For example assume a Customer in the legacy system has multiple addresses.If they do not have Address IDs in the legacy system , how do we generate Address IDs in IFS (Say Address IDs 01,02,03,04,05)

Hi All,When we do Data Migration using old Data Migration tool, we create legacy data file structure based on the Migration job we write.For example assume we need to migrate Customers.In the csv file we define headers as CUSTOMER_ID, NAME,CUSTOMER_CATEGORY,DEFAULT_LANGUAGE etc. based on the DM job column order  and then fill data in csv file  accordingly.Based on new tool ‘Data Migration Manager’ documentation, it looks like we do not need to do this anymore. Instead we can export legacy data into csv files as it is in the legacy system  and then import them into IFS Data Migration manager. After the import it looks like we can map legacy data into target tables as we require.We can also use dblink in order to map legacy data tables into target tables as well. Could someone explain and confirm if my understanding is correct?   

What’s the best way to migrate basic data between environments in IFSCloud?

Hello, I want to consult the values of an enumerate in order to export it and add a new values. how can I make it ?. Thanks

After the initial installation it appears that there are migration jobs (at least the interface headers) available. I'm not able to delete them as there is no detail available so they only confuse the customer.List is shown as follows:I gave myself update access to the job.When searching via the page Migration Job (so not Jobs), I don't see it. If I try to add it, IFS returns the error message that the interface already exists.Any idea how to get rid of these jobs?

HiMy customer has installed IFS Cloud on-premise and is using Excel version - Windows Excel : 16.0.5317.1000. The customer has successfully installed the Excel Add In and the Excel IFS icon appears on the excel. But when the customer launches it nothing happens.Just to test in the same laptop we tried installing Office 365 excel and the IFS Excel plugin successfully launched. But is not working with the excel version the customer is using. The customer has no plans to update the excel version and is asking how to make the excel plugin work with the current version.Has anyone of you experienced this issue ? Is there any possibility the customer can launch the excel plugin with the version of excel the customer has.Thank you in advance. RegardsSumit ROY

We have a number of IALs that update on a schedule and they work great, but there are a few that always get stuck on the Update Status of POSTED.   Once stuck they will not update.  There is no background job associated with the IAL.I can do a manual update and it works fine.Any ideas of what could be happening here?

Hi,for external (QlickView) security reasons we need the following format in the DIM_Employee/DIM_Person in the datawarehouse.FirstCharacterSurName+LastName. Like MKAISER (michael.kaiser@company.de)While I’m in the IFS maskSolution Manager > Security > Users > Create UserI will see IDENTITY and Database ID: with the formatting above.The System Info stays empty and the debug console don’t show anything.So any hints, in which View/Table I can find an PERSON_ID and DATABASE_ID in one row? Thanks a lot!All the best. Michael 

Can anyone tell me if the migration containers are the same for Cloud as they were for APPS10?

HiOne of our customers has a question in regards to the Migration job tool in excel. When we select a folder and highlight a migration job it opens. If we make any changes then reopen the file and connect it highlights the last migration job that was selected.  is there a way to change this so it doesn't highlight the last job? I’m assuming there may be a setting that needs to be selected? thanksGary 

I’ve tried scheduling jobs but they aren’t running. When I force them I've found that they are showing in system monitoring that they are last ran in 1969. Is there a place I can check on this date / time? It’s on a test environment.

Due to high workloads on our own IFS contacts they cannot provide resources for us. So I’m asking for some recommendation about PowerBI consutants around Scandinavia(We are currently in Norway). We need live data from our IFS DB to be manipulated on PowerBI. What we need is a basic training and implementation.  Hope you can help us :) 

Hello,When I migrate the suppliers agreements they automatically appear in the "Planned" status and I would like to migrate them all to the "Active" status without having to do any manual actions. The field OBJSTATE on template seems to have no effect on the status… Thank you for your answer.
