Trying to find out if there are any known instances where IFS CLOUD has been implemented and integrated with a Document / Content Management system called Hyland OnBase. I’ve checked the Hyland OnBase website which lists multiple integrations but the list doesn’t include IFS. I’m trying to find out if this will be a “first of a kind”, or if its been done previously elsewhere

Hello,We are doing an Upgrade for a Customer who is upgrading from Apps10 to IFS Cloud 24R1 (have plans to get 24R2 or 25R1 in future). This is a remote customer who uses a lot of documents.In their current Apps10 system, they have these documents in FTP Repository & database.With the news of FTP getting obsoleted in IFS Cloud 24R1, we decided to implement File Storage for this customer. We have below two questions regarding this situation,We assumed FTP will be fully obsoleted by 24R1 but I can see FTP as an option in this customer’s new 24R1 system. Was this plan to obsolete got changed or postponed to later versions?If FTP is indeed obsoleted and this customer needs to move their documents in FTP to FSS, what would be better/efficient way IFS can suggest? They already went through the FSMig tool’s documentation and have some concerns on the efficiency and support for that tool for FTP. Do we have another tested method in which this customer can benefit from? There is around 5TB
Hello experts, We want to show the documents attached to a specific part revision in engineering part navigator in a custom tab. Basically this will be the same as what we can see in document tab in attachment panel at the bottom of the page. However we are not sure how to filter out the documents as per the part revision. Any advices/tips/ tricks will be mostly welcome. Thanks in advance,

Hello,Could you please give me advice on this problem. My task was to add new column SUM which will count values in two columns and in this column are decimal values with a dot, but I want decimal values with a comma, how can I change it? This is my query:“SELECT :QUANTITY + :QTY_WAIV_DEV_REJ FROM INVENTORY_VALUE_PART_LEVEL_EXT” I tried this command: “SELECT REPLACE(TO_CHAR(:QUANTITY, '99999999.9'), '.', ',') + REPLACE(TO_CHAR(:QTY_WAIV_DEV_REJ, '999999999'), '.', ',')FROM INVENTORY_VALUE_PART_LEVEL_EXT “ in SQL works, but in IFS it didnt retrieves any data.
There is a SharedDocs”appname” folder on the app server that fills up the disk with small files over time. These all appear to be uploaded document images. I found the references to this directory in the “appname”_configuration.xml file. <ifs.fndmws.internal.custom.java.options.main>-Difs.fnd.docman.shared.path=c:/IFS/SharedDocs”appname”/</ifs.fndmws.internal.custom.java.options.main><ifs.fndmws.internal.custom.java.options.int>-Difs.fnd.docman.shared.path=c:/IFS/SharedDocs”appname”/</ifs.fndmws.internal.custom.java.options.int><Docman.cluster.shared.path>c:/IFS/SharedDocs”appname”/</Docman.cluster.shared.path> Can anyone tell me if these are just temporary files created for upload to the database, and if so, is there a setting to clean these up after a given period of time or can they be cleaned up manually after processing is complete?

Hi all,This is to see if anyone else encounters this scenario and if they have a solution for IFS Cloud.We currently have technical drawings that are sent to us as PDFs and we store them within IFS Doc Man.When the file is being viewed, we would ideally like IFS to watermark these files with the document attributes (e.g. doc number, sheet number, revision number etc.) Any ideas?Thanks,Zac
Hi Community, I have a question on the different behaviour in Apps9 v IFS Cloud when creating a new document. In apps9, if you create a new record from Document Revision, when you hit the Edit button, the application launches a dialog that prompts for the file type, once selected the associated program is launched. I dont seem to see the same behavour in IFS Cloud (23R2), can anyone confirm that this previous functionality is now depreciated and if so what is the work around, and if not, how do you create the same functionality in Cloud. To add some context, in the above scenario, if WORD file type was selected, a macro would run and populate the newly created document with the IFS properties, allowing them to be inserted (and therefore updated dynamically) going forward. Thanks in advance.David.
I have a client needing to attach new documents to various objects. Some documents are drawings and need to have the same document number as the Drawing Number and Revision they are attaching. I have changed the default for the New Document in the Attachment Panel to utilize the Create Document Assistant so Document Numbers and Revisions can be added. If the Object the Document is being attached to, using the New Document, is not set up in the Quick Object Connect table, the document does not get connected to the Object. Is this a Bug? If I add the Object to the Quick Object Connect table, it will automatically be connected.Is there a setting to automatically have the Object connected when using the Create Document Assistant in the New Document Attachment Panel? We have almost two hundred Objects that have the DocReferenceObject set up with the ability attach a document directly.If I add all of these Object to the Quick Object Connect, they will all show up on the Create Document As
I have a question. Is it possible to configure the repository of the "File storage" type in such a way that the files of attachments of different classes of documents are stored in different directories and not in one collective "Docman"?
Does IFS Document Management support attachment parsing for text documents WORD or PDF? basically the system to be able in examining the data present in a document like keywords and other text to make it available for SEARCH ? If this capability is not available ? are we going to include it as a model in Copilot for future releases? is this on the Roadmap?
