Hallo
I have a person how left the company. Now her person ID is still entered as “Invoice Recipient” in the Supplier - Invoice - General. 

 

When I block the person, than the new person are not able to enter a Manual Supplier Invoice.
So I have to repalce this person ID to the new person ID. How I can do this in a easy way?
Best Regards,
André

You would have to use a script or migration job to do the update.  There are many things have to be transitioned when a user leaves before you can just turn them off.


Hello @andjor 

In the Supplier window, aren't you allowed the previous person's detail from supplier window and add the new person’s detail under invoice recipient tag?

 


Hallo

I can do it manually directly in Windows Supplier - Invoice - General. But this task is to be done for more than 700 suppliers. This is just the beginning as we have several companies in IFS App 10. There should be a function in IFS by default to make such changes. We are not the only company how has this kinde of cases. Or?


Hello,

As Shawn suggested, you can use migration job to replace invoice recipient in supplier master data. 

Or you can define substitute or superior authorizer for the person who left the company - with id of the person currently responsible for these duties.

I think there is no function dedicated for such a case, but the options available are not too difficult to execute.. 


Hi,

DId you use a Migration Job?  My job at the moment fails with ‘Read Only Grants for IFSINFO’.

 

Thanks,

Denise


Hi,

With migration job, you need to execute it usinguser id having access to the action/method called by this job, otherwise it will fail with the error message similar to one you have received. IFSINFO, as an owner of IALs has normally read-only access to all objects.


Hi Adam, thanks - I am executing it as IFSAPP, shouldn’t that have all access?

Denise


If you do it by IFSAPP, then error message related to IFSINFO access must not be related to the job execution as such - but rather with the function called. Perhaps there is an event related to the change you are doing, which is using IFSINFO access?


Hi Adam,

I am only using one method in the Method List, IDENTITY_INVOICE_INFO_API and modifying just one column.  I have run the debugger while executing the job but it is not helping me identify the issue.  

 

Regards,

Denise


Dear Denise
 

I use the IFS Excel Migration Tool for the the change of the Invoice Recipient. It it the best way for us. At the moment, I ‘m on job to replace the salesperson on the customers in the same way.

Best Regards,

Thanks André, that was really good of you to attach the screenshots.  My job is now working and will be re-used shortly as well.  Kind regards, Denise
