Document Management (DocMan)

Attending a webinar regarding Document Managament where Bookmarklets were presented …How can I make them myself ? 

Is there a setting to default new document attachments to “Approved” and “Released” status when registered? To change the document status so that it can not be edited without performing a formal revision cycle.

Hi Team, I'm hoping to connect customer invoice PDF document back to customer order. Following is the report rule :   and following are the actions: When I invoiced customer order, it does not create any record at 'Report rule log' page and same time there is no error in Print manager as well.Could anyone here suggest, what are the changes should be made to actions?Cloud version 22R2

HelloWe have a couple of users who when using the RMB to perform Instant Authorization in the Posting Proposals screen have overnight come across an issue with the Preview section of the screen.  These users who previously could see the Preview section now cannot and the document being authorised now opens up in full screen mode in Adobe.IFS takes some time to open the document in full screen mode - the user then has to close the adobe screen, authorize the invoice(s) and then IFS once again re-opens the document in full screen mode.This change in behavior is really slowing down the authorization process for our users.Does anyone know why the Preview section of the screen is no longer available to the users and why all of a sudden these documents open up in Adobe full screen?ThanksAS   

When a user is downloading a document maintained in the system in Document management, a few pieces of information should be printed/ attached to the document for example,           USER ID of the user who downloaded the document.           Timestamp: Document downloaded time.Is there any way to get this request fulfilled? This is achievable via document macros, but the problem is, the customer does not like to use a document template. Any thoughts on this? 

I would like to know more about the explanation for the following pages as help on .file storage types1. "Complex to setup" is described in the case of "FTP", the environment required for setup and the setup procedure.2. "Very secure" is described in the case of "database", but we would like to know the specific reason/contents why it is more secure when compared to "FTP".https://kw-erp-ifs-vm-2.5kxpe4zzxgje5el0mp3f1l4iad.lx.internal.cloudapp.net:48080/ifsdoc/documentation/ja/default.htm?openpage=https://kw-erp-ifs-vm-2.5kxpe4zzxgje5el0mp3f1l4iad.lx.internal.cloudapp.net:48080/ifsdoc/documentation/ja/CreateAndMaintainDocument/AboutDocumentFileRepositories.htm 

When I press "Release" from the right-click menu "Status" on the document revision screen, the following message appears and I cannot release the document(IFS10). "Need object reference for document revision ([document class]-[document number]-[sheet]-[revision]). Check document title."Is it possible to make a document revision released without a object reference? 

How can I change local checkout path ?It is not automatically set, after first time of checking in/out the document, and it is not possible to change it in the User setting even if the user has document admin access.

Hi,We have set up a new report rule to get the PDF from our Project invoice print, check it in Document Management and attach it to the Project Invoice screen. It works really well if the Document Management repository is set to Database but we cannot get it to work if is FTP. We are in Apps10 UPD6.Has anyone got a report rule Check in Document Management to work with FTP or do you think it is a restriction from IFS?Many Thanks and Regards,Anne-Sophie

Hi All - Does any one know the way to download the attachments from a particular screen in Bulk ?

Hi,several customers who use Aurena client in Apps 10 or IFS Cloud ask for the old functionality to configure the attachment panel if it should show icons, lists or details. Of course it is possible to press the button ‘Document Revisions’ to see all the details of all attached documents.Is it on the roadmap for DocMan to offer a possibilty for getting the table view of all connected documents in the attachment panel? This should not be a big modification and would help all customers who have lot of documents attached.Best regardsHeinz

With WIP report being a moment in time report, can I schedule the report to run at a certain time and then have it email that report or put it in the report archive to print later?

Good afternoon, I’m trying to set up macros for a customer environment and I’m unable to make it work for a customer environment in cloud. I’ll list out the bullet points of steps followed to see if anyone could help out: Downloaded and installed IFS Aurena Extension (for correct environment) Created new Doc Class Created Document Macro Blocks    Created Document Macros:   Entered the Object Attributes for Macros:    Copied Macros into Doc Class Management page (checkin, checkout, createnew)   Created Checkin, Checkout and Createnew in Doc Class Process Action with macro option: RunIfOnlyOne (tried SelectAndRun too) - and Name Files Using: Force Document Title and Name.   Made sure that on Object Connections, the Logical Unit contains the “DocReferenceObject”   Then when creating a document from the LU chosen, and opening the Word Doc (doing it for Word07 - Docx), and clicking on: Insert > Quick Part > Document Information > DocProperty   After following those steps, I a

 Hello, I am using IFS version 8. On some computers, when "view" is tried in the document management system, it throws it from IFS. Is anyone experiencing this problem. IFS closes on my computer with the same user, but not on my friend's computer.

Hello Everyone, There is a requirement to send Attachments  with the same email of the Purchase Order’s Print Order...The mail should contain the attachments of the Purchase Order as well as the Purchase Order report.This should be happen only if the attachments are in specific document classes eg: 4600 - 4699.This should be work in Aurena as well. Please let me know if you have any idea of how to do this.  Many Thanks,Denuka

Is it possible to attach documents to a Work Center in Apps10?

Hi All,Currently I am working on IFS Cloud 21R2 and I want to change the order of the attachments.When I edit this in the Object Connections, it changes back on the order of the Alphabet.Can someone let me know if I do something wrong, or is this not possible to change the order?So I change the order: When I press Ok, it is changed back (so ChangeObjectConnection) is set as first: Thanks in advance, Robert Kool

Previously, the object connections in the document revision page showed both the object ID in the key field and the object description. Can both of these information be displayed here? 

Anybody who ever managed to pick up Technical Characteristics and merge them into a document using macros?If so - can you share how to set up the object connection to manage this? 

Can this button be moved? (Or get a different color. Red for example) See picture belowWe have now experienced several people who have had the file deleted even though they have been asked if they want to delete the file.BrLinda

Hi I wanted to ask if it is possible to preview a pdf document in a new browser window or a new tab (sheet). Currently, the preview runs within the same window/sheet.(IFS Cloud)

Hi All,When we creating a new revision of an existing document, if we uncheck the "Keep file" option, there is no drag and drop option enabled in ‘New Document Revision’.Why this functionality is not added to the ‘New Document Revision’ ? If anyone needs to add a document it should be done through Document Revision window. This causes a time loss. Best Regards,Roshan 

  HiThe responsible person on the document changes when we create a new revision. The customer says that in app 8 the responsible person does not change. Is it a bug that it changes now?I don't know much about this so I have to ask here 😊  BrLinda

Hello, We have some issue with our customer regarding Document management deployment.Internal database has restricted storage capacity, which is not viable in the long run. FSS solution has a cost per utilization, which is not a possible solution regarding its costFirst, the customer project is the following :1st go-live with an On-premise installation of IFS Cloud Switch from On-premise to IFS Cloud as a service installation Roll-out 6 months later on a IFS as a service installationIn the long run, document storage solution must be compatible with a Cloud installation. Standard solutions offered by IFS in terms of Document storage does seems not to allow to have client-managed databases in a Cloud installation : e.g. an Azure Storage database owned and managed by the customer, which would be connected to the FSS storage solution. My questions are the following :Can an Azure Storage database owned and managed by the customer be used in a FSS storage solution ? If yes, how is the setup
