Data Migration

Hello Community!Today I’m trying to insert some Units of Measure using Data Migration Manager. When I try to commit my changes, I see the error description “Method MODIFY failed : ORA-20122: IsoUnit.ERRUPDUSED: The field [USED_IN_APPL] is not valid for update for user defined codes.” in those UoM that are user defined.Any ideas how can I approach a solution for this? So far I tried setting the “USED_IN_APP” as “Out of Scope” in the Target Table definition but that doesn’t make any difference.

On our Accounts Payables lobby screen there are 21 invoices showing errors on the final posting proposals page that have been locked in there for years and they will not clear. They are all paid posted, however they all include this error: (Apps 10 EE) We are moving to Cloud in February and have a testing space currently where they also migrated over to this environment. I had read that it could be a bug, but it wasn't the same specific error so i’m not 100% sure. If this is the case and it is a bug, will it resolve itself once we fully transition to Cloud?   

Hi everyone,I’m currently facing an issue with Excel migration where empty values from the Excel sheet are overwriting existing data in our IFS application. Specifically, I want to prevent fields from being updated with empty values. For example, if the “DUNS No” field (column F) is empty, I don’t want it to overwrite the existing value in the application.Here’s a simplified example to illustrate the problem:Example Data: ID Name Address City Country DUNS No 1 Company A 123 Street Kraków Poland 123456 2 Company B 456 Avenue Warsaw Poland   3 Company C 789 Boulevard Gdańsk Poland 789012  In this example, for row 2, I want to update the application with the data from columns B-E for the corresponding ID, but leave the “DUNS No” field unchanged if it is empty, regardless of whether data exists in this field in the application or not.Has anyone encountered a similar issue or have any suggestions on how to handle this in the migration process?Than

Hi everyone,I’m unable to use a migration job to input a non-inventory sales parts with JUST a tax class.  If I try, I get the following error… I can however, create one with JUST a tax code.The odd thing is that if you debug the sales_part_api call when using IFS, both tax class AND tax code are supplied i.e. from the debug attr'TAX_CODE'||chr(31)||''||chr(30)||'TAX_CLASS_ID'||chr(31)||'1'||chr(30)|| Can anyone share any light on why this is?

Hello, Trying to implement a user available excel migration file and have to solve two problems to make it useable.  problem 1) Want to make one of the columns a drop down with 5 to 6 options for ease of input and formatting. Other values could be manually input but the drop down would contain the most frequently used values. Would prefer to do this using Client Values and not DB values. In this example it would be the Work Task Template ID  - Description - Rev. Problem 2) This specific migration container is to a custom page and the primary values are Contract and Line No. The issue is that the migration file is asking for line DB value and the user will not have access to that information since its not viewable in the client. There is an API call to the OBJKEY on that table which is the DB value for the Line Number. Trying to determine how to have the file fetch the DB value after the user specifies the client value.  I’ve scoured documentation and watched numerous videos with no luc

The following print-screen show the state of one of my Output Containers, as you can see:It refers to IDENTITY_PAY_INFO It’s key (COMPANY, IDENTITY, PARTY_TYPE_DB) is: TESTCO, ABC0001 and CUSTOMER (respectively) Is in Approved stateIn addition to that, IDENTITY_PAY_INFO is referred by another table PAYMENT_WAY_PER_IDENTITY. On that table, It is expected that the field PARTY_TYPE_DB should exist in IDENTITY_PAY_INFO, as you can see in this Target Table Definition.With this information in mind… then why this row in PAYMENT_WAY_PER_IDENTITY failing if the corresponding record already exist in  IDENTITY_PAY_INFO when I validate basic data?To me the information is already there, so it shouldn’t fail.Also, what does the word “CASCADE” represent in the Reference column in the target table definition (as in this case where the reference is “IdentityPayInfo(company,identity)/CASCADE”)?

Hi,We are in middle of upgrading from IFS 9 to Cloud and uplifting all our Migration Jobs. In Cloud, we noticed that the Excel Migration jobs using standard IFS API Methods create a new projection once we update the job and click ‘Re-generate Excel Migration’ option. Granting the projection to the relevant Permission Set allows user to execute the job successfully in Excel.However, the same doesn't happen when we modify Excel Migration Jobs using Custom API Methods as no new Projection appears after clicking Re-generate Excel Migration.When the user tries to run the migration, the attached error occurs:We confirmed the same error for two other Custom API based Excel Mig Jobs.Product Version: 23.1.11

Hello, I'm Markus and I'm new here in this community, and this is my first post.One of my tasks is to prepare the master data from the old ERP and migrate it to the IFS cloud. Of course, a lot of mapping is necessary, as we don't have this many columns and tables in the old ERP.I learned from our consulting to use these data migration tools: Migration Job for LOAD and for MIGI have a VPN to the IFS cloud and can select the data VIEWS via ORACLE SQL Developer to reconcile the column names and fields for the migration job files or to build the mapping for this.Is there a best practice for the migration of master datafrom our old ERP to our IFS cloud?Thank you very much for your knowledgeGreetingsMarkus

My Basic Data Container in Data Migration Manager is saying that these 5 records for countries are in a “Not Deployed” Deploy Status state…  Yet, if I go to the Deployment Container for the same Target Table (ISO_COUNTRY) my 5 rows are in either Deployed With Commit or Deployed state. Why is the discrepancy between the Basic Data Container and Deployment Container Statuses? is this a bug in the User Interface?

When migrating project, I want to make use of the Project ID Generation Rules. I leave the project ID in the migrate source job blank, category 1 is filled, Generation rules have been set up for given category 1. All other values are catch all.Still nothing happens when running the migration. So I was wondering which API to call to set the api in the defaul value of the project id, so it would generate the id when migration job runs.Anyone an idea which api to call? I would prefer to know the parameters as well, although less important for now.BTW: rule works perfect when entering a project via the project definition form

Hello,I am in trouble to create multiple price lists with thousands of Sales parts in IFS Cloud.Can somebody guide me how i can create excel migration job or file update option?

 I am creating an Excel Migration job that will set hundreds of Requisition Authorisation Rules to ‘Planned’.This is very much like the topic I raised and got a very good answer that worked well: Excel Migration - Delete User Sites | IFS Community. On this occasion the same principles are not working for me.Here is the job...For the Action on Seq 10 I have toggled InLoop and NoExecution.For Seq 20, I set these attributes…My source mapping looks like this - I allowed the default Source Columns and assume I don’t need to do anything with the first 4 Method columns…Having tried many variations, the latest result is set to null upon execution…In the debug Trace, I see this error…It looks like it is trying to grab every column and insert the values into the Attr_ variable.I’m out of ideas now

Hi,In Apps 9 whilst using Data Migration Jobs, users were able to delete records after loading data from spreadsheet and before migrating the records into IFS.However, in IFS Cloud (23.1.11) there seems to be no option to delete records like the ones highlighted below:Users need this ability to review and delete records before migrating them into IFS.Is this a case of missing functionality in Cloud that will be added in future updates?
