Data Migration

Hi!I have a migration job that fails with the error message “Error when closing job ORA-12899: value is to big for column “ifsapp.intface_header_tab”.”last_info” (actual: 4002, maximum: 4000)After checking in PLSQL it seems that the migration job is generating this “Last info”. (The print screen is in swedish):I can also verify in PLSQL that the VARCHAR is set to 4000:Does anyone know how to solve this issue?Thanks!

Hi, We’re currently about to go live and we have a number of open orders that have been configured from on legacy system which needs to be migrated over to IFS. We have created migration jobs for customer order header & customer order lines.We’re yet to create a migration job for the configuration as we’re not sure if it’s possible to migrate configuration ID’s with configuration spec values into IFS or if this has to be manually.Has anyone come across this before and how did they get around it?  

To extract data from IFS, Is the use of ETL like Boomi prevent the use of other mode of Extraction( flat files extraction ) ? that is to say, if i use Boomi to extract data from IFS i cannot do so using flat file in the same time ?

Hello,in the IFS 10 version we used the excel file (input excel). Was such a file created for the CLOUD 22R1 version?if so - can I ask for this file?

Hi Experts, One of our customers is getting an issue where the FSM installer creates a temporary sql server on Azure unsupervised without the option to select existing one for migration of metadata.

Is it possible to load time data into a Date field?Using a Migration Job, I’m trying to load a time value into Day Type Details (FTIME field) but can’t get the date value (06:00:00.0000000) to parse properly:Error formatting date value 06:00:00.0000000 for FTIME I’ve also tried 06:00 and set the Date Format to hh:mm without success.

Is there a way to change the status of a record created using a migration job? When creating a record it is always created in ‘Preliminary’ Statusex- Create a Customer Order with status ‘Released’ or Create PM Action with status ‘Active’ using a migration job 

When I tried to create a migration job from what’s available on DEV and save, I get the above error message. Can someone advise?  

Hi Evevybody, We prepare de data migration job to add some project activities. Table is ACTIVITY and a key field is ACTIVITY_SEQ. is it possible to call activity_seq.nextval to init this field ?I test but without success. When I initialize with a numeric value it works but I will prefer use sequence.Regards, Christophe

We have a business requirement to change many of our top level project ids. It looks like this is a primary key on the project_tab table, so it sounds like it might be messy. Can anyone help provide guidance on approaches to changing project ids, if there is a third party tool, or if it would be possible using any of the built-in migration tools. We are on apps10 if it matters. TIA

We are running Apps10 UPD14I know we can see the history of migration jobs (which jobs were run when and by who) for the non-Excel jobs in view INTFACE_JOB_HSIT_HEAD.  I’m looking for the equivalent information for Excel Migration jobs.  Does that migration job history exist?

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? 

Are there any UK based IFS partners that deliver Technical training on lobbies, Data Migration, Events etc, but not specifically PL/SQL

Hello everyone,When I want to create Target Table Definition in Smart Data Manager, I have this error when I select the option: "From Template Project":On the other hand, no problem with the "Master Environment" option.Did I forget something in my project settings? For your information, I made all the elements I was interested in "In Scope" in the "Migration object scope" tab.Thanks in advance!

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?
