Hello!Is there a way of creating a Purchase Order with a direct delivery without use of a Customer Order using the supply code ‘purchase order dir’? Ideally would just like to create a manual Purchase Requisition and select order code 2 but IFS apps 10 seems not to allow this.  Scenario is, need to buy one part number from supplier A and have goods delivered to supplier B who would then deliver to us under another part number

Hi Team,I am a beginner in Custom event and would like an example on how can I update a field inside the Business Opportunity table (source Id for example) once the opportunity is closed .I believe I must use BUSINESS_OPPORTUNITY_API.Modify_ but not sure of the syntax/ code inside the Execute Online Sql custom event.Thanks  

Context : My client sells services to his customers (so non inventory parts). Following an absence or a lack of service, the customer can ask my client to make appear a line with negative amount in the invoice. How can I achieve that with IFS using Customer Orders ? I saw that the system is built in a way that the quantity and the price in the customer order line cannot be negativ, is there a way to change that ?If not, I read other posts and for example the use of Campaign/Sales Promotions Functionality does not fit this case. So, two options could work but your ideas might enlighten me:1/ I think that IFS is built in a way that I should use discounts in order to do what I want and adapt it a bit. However there are two things I could not fix yet : my client does not work with % and I could not be able to enter an amount, I want to see an additional negativ line in the invoice.2/ I manage to do what I want using the tab “Charges” in the customer order. You can enter negative quantity,

Hi I am looking to add a custom field to the customer tab on representative 360.  Specifically looking to add the Cust_Grp from the Customer > Order > General Tab. pl/sql for the CUST_ORD_CUSTOMER_API.Get_Cust_Grp  requires customer_no. On the rep 360 page the customer_no is actually Customer_id. The expression i have written doesnt give errors, approves, publishes and synchonrises.  After reloading configuration in the rep 360 window the custom field doesnt appear in column chooser. help please. 

Hi,Do we have any experience with building an integration between IFS and UPS?UPS has some API’s available, which will facilitate automatic creation of shipping labels in their system. Information is sent from IFS (shipment, I suppose) to UPS system, in order to avoid manual retyping of the information (addresses, specific shipping information).DHL and TNT have similar connections available.Any feedback would be appreciated.BR,Pasi

Hello all!Hopefully this is a quick question that can lead into a lesson that is useful for others (including myself).I’m creating a custom page and would like to add a custom field that will record a few instantaneous values but am struggling to find the right value to reference. We’d like fields to keep:User who creates the record Date/time at entry User who modifies a particular Boolean value in the tableI tried using SYSDATE and USER but of course that just pulls the date and user at the minute of viewing the record.If I learn this lesson it opens a lot of opportunities for interesting metrics. Thanks to advance to anyone who is willing to help!Using IFSAPP9 if that’s relevant.

We received this error message Field [Price/Curr] is mandatory for Return Material Line and require a value.when trying to create a Return Material Authorization by using the Customer Order/Handle Return Material Authorization.  There is data in the field Price/Curr.  This is an older order from 2002.  We were able to create the from the Return Material Authorization screen.

Hi,At our UK’s facility the current process for stock collections is as follow:Lorry driver comes to the factory to collect stock; One of the lad in the factory will print the dispatch note from the Shipment screen and have the lorry driver sign it; The lad will then scan the dispatch note and put in a OneDrive; Attach the dispatch note to the appropriate shipment in IFS.As you can see it involves a lot of inefficiencies, I was wondering if one of you ever used a 3rd party app for e-signature  connected to IFS. My dream process would be to have the lorry drivers sign the dispatch note on a tablet and have the dispatch note automatically attached to the proper shipment in IFS. Note that we’re currently using IFS V9 and will migrate to Cloud in a few months.  Thanks !

I have a continuing issue in IFS App9 with Signature images shrinking based on the amount of data present in the body of the layout.  We use Dynamic image stored on database.  If there is enough room the signature displays properly but when the page is filled with data it shrinks instead of flowing to the next page.  I do not have any properties set to keep with current, previous or next objects.  There is data before and after it.  My version of Report Designer does not have an aspect ratio property for the images in the body area but there is one in the header/footer images (no issues with these).  I have the same issue on all of our layouts.  We have our images saved as .jpg and using Media Items within IFS - is there a specific size they need to be or should we use a different file type?  Haven’t found anything that specifies so using what we were using for StreamServe.
