Hi, We are using IFS Apps 9. I think this is also relevant to Apps 10 and beyond. We are beginning a project to integrate IFS with an external CRM, Hubspot in this instance, although it could be any CRM or external system. If we were to maintain the Customer Info, Customer Info Address, Customer Info Contact, Person Info and Comm Methods in both systems, should be be looking at maintaining a 2 way data sync or just adopt a master/slave scenario. If an object is going to be updated in the external system, then should that system refresh the object (Customer Info Address for example) from IFS to make sure it has the most recent version with the most recent Objversion. Then when the record is saved to the external system it is also saved to IFS.Or should should updates to the Customer Info Address in IFS be prohibited and only the CRM can be used for updating the Customer Info Address. How have others approached this? Regards, Kevin

I want to alter a Purchase Part selection screen, as used when selecting items for a purchase order. Currently only the ID of the Purchase Group is shown and I want to also display the name (and allow the user to filter on it when selecting a part).I can add an attribute as follows which looks up the description.On its own, this works and I can see in the database that the PURCHASE_PART view now has an additional field that shows the name of the purchase group.From what I could tell, in order to include the new field on the screen I needed to alter the following: However I now get an error when trying to go onto that screen and it is because that screen appears to be looking at the PURCHASE_PART_LOV3 view. My new attribute is not included in that view.It looks like the PurchasePart.views file contains the various additional views. Currently my PurchasePart-Cust.views file is blank. Is there any way I can get it to just add a single field to additional views? I don’t really want to copy

Hi all, I’ve noticed that when provisioning a user through SCIM an employee object is created. This is great, but can someone guide me to the latest documentation that states what is created and what new attributes I can set?The documentation for 23R1 does not include anything related to Employees.Is there anything else that has been introduced with 23R1 in the SCIM domain?Best regards,/Magnus

Having looked at the feature in IFS Cloud (customer installation), it seems this is not possible in IFS Cloud.  Can someone confirm this? Is this planned to be introduced soon?  

Hello,I am currently facing an issue with report designer. We recently updated our cloud configuration environment to 23R1.6 and once we updated, we’ve started encountering some issues with projections, especially with report designer accessing projections.Please see the error below when trying to sign in.Thanks,Bryan 

IFS is very column dependant.  The record picker is pretty, but the drop down record selector works fine in most cases and does not consume page width. It would be more useful to see 2 more columns on a page rather than the record picker each time the page loads for our business. Here is a single record with the record picker all prominent with it’s single record. Record picker was previously hidden, but displays with a single record It would be nice if it remembered that we want it hidden because we would rather see a couple additional columns. We’ll end up hiding the picker each time to avoid having to scroll to get a couple more columnsThis thing works just fine if the picker stays hidden. It would be nice if the picker wasn’t so proud of itself and could stay hidden.

Up to App10, ‘PL/SQL Methods Webservices’ was an easy way to expose PL/SQL Methods for inbound  synchronous messaging in form of SOAP webservices:https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/foundation1/050_development/024_integration/020_webservices/020_plsql_methods_webservices/default.htmNo BizAPI, minimal modeling, and it worked and there was a proper WSDL available for them. It seems it is not available any more in IFS Cloud.I would like to know what is the closest replacement for them.We want as little changes in the interface as possible, keeping SOAP, not switching to REST.Might this one (Routing Addresses of PL/SQL type) be part of the solution?:https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/23r1/060_development/024_integration/015_connect/025_plsql_methods/ What is the easiest way to achieve this?WSDL is necessary for the 3rd party to use it. Thanks in advance for suggestions.

Hi,We have a new form created in IFS Apps 10. Table is included in a Form. After saving the header when  you  set focus to table, New button (plus signs) do not get enabled. How can we fix this issue ? Thank You,Sandaruwan   

I am trying to build a user interaction workflow, but I’m having trouble displaying a longer Header in more than one line.Any ideas how this could be achieved?

We’ve been live for a couple of months now using the CRM functionality within IFS Cloud 23R1 only.Over the past 24 hours we have noticed that users are receiving the error below along with a toast message ‘Failed to Load Person Info’ on the Business Opportunities screen, and the error alone on the Lead Address and Customer Address screens.  As far as we can see, nothing has changed in our environment to cause this?  I’ve seen a few posts about the error messages and I’ve added the Projection ‘GetPartyTypeWidgetInfo’ which resolved the issue on the Business Opportunities screen but not on the Address related screens.After some debugging, I added the Projection ‘Address Presentation’ which has resolved that issue.Has anyone experienced anything similar, or can explain why these projections would suddenly now be required when they weren’t previously?  Also, several of our users have found that their Bookmarks and Column Settings have been deleted.  Has anyone experienced this, and is ther
