Hi All,

I’m trying to user IFS Excel add-in with IFS cloud 21.2.8 and getting an error message when trying to load data. 

Please see below information

Add-in has successfully added to excel O365 and logged in to the application using IFSAPP

 

When “Load Data” button is clicked latter error message appears

 

 

Cannot read properties of null (reading 'intfaceName')

 

Thanks in advance

Hi All,

Due to some problems with running Excel Add-in in the desktop application, I also decided to run it in the web application where it is very easy (just add the XML file generated in IFS "Solution Manager\Data Management\Data Migration\Excel Migration\Generate Manifest" to add-ins in web Excel)

This message is due to the fact that you have not created the appropriate IFS migration job (with Procedure Name : EXCEL_MIGRATION). Go to migration jobs, create a job.

The web Excel add-in will connect to the IFS system and download data…

Hello, 

 

I tried to “execute” a new line of data I just added via excel addin, but I get the same message even if the line I am trying to execute is already in “valid” status in the result column. 

 

Any idea as to why it won’t execute the line? 

I have already granted the projection linked to the migration job to a permission set related to the user executing excel addin

Thanking you in advance, 

Tanya
