Hi All, We have a scenario where our customer wants to send emails to its customers (payers of invoices) with a link (URL).If they click on the URL the PDF of the invoice gets downloaded and displayed.And they (our customer) want to be notified (save the information in IFS somewhere) that the link was clicked on.Recipients of those emails know nothing of IFS, so it is just a link to internet for them.I guess it is more or less possible to do with REST APIs and custom development.What about authentication?How is it done usually?What would make the client op. system display the PDF that was just downloaded?Is it possible? 

Hi,  I’m in the process of an IFS9 to IFS10 upgrade project. In IFS9 there was an API method we used to create a picklist in the system for a shop order. We would then later use that created picklist to invoke a client print and pull the XML data for that shop order picklist from the database.The API we use in IFS9 is:IFSAPP.Shop_Material_Pick_Util_API.Create_So_Pick_List In IFS10 there is no such API and it appears that all the APIs that I can find to create picklists use private methods that I cannot invoke. Can I get some help to find a similar method to call? I basically just want to tell the system to create a picklist for all material on X shop order. Thank you!

Hi, If I want to change a customer order line I use this function: Customer_Order_Line_API.Modify__()   Some times I need to do it it in a background job. Then I would create a new procedure that executes Customer_Order_Line_API.Modify__() and then start that new procedure with Transaction_SYS.Deferred_Call() from an event.   Is there any way to perform this directly without the custom procedure?   Best regards Kresten

Is there a way to find the details related to when was the last time a user password was changed?

When a quick report is published, it grants the Projection to all available permission sets.THere is no easy way to “Unpublish” the quick report.I cannot find any option to select a Projection, and then remove access for this projection for several permission sets at the same time. This would be a most helpful feature.My customer (currently 21R2) has hundreds of permission sets, to go in to every single permission set to remove the grant, would take a very long time.

I have just carried out an Apps9 to Apps10 upgrade and inadvertently not specified the instance folder, setting the IFS Home folder to be F:\IFS\IFSMWS instead of F:\IFS\IFSMWS\IFSL.  Is there an easy way to amend this.   Unfortunately, it would cause a lot of upheaval if I went back and removed it then re-created IFS Home again as many steps/processes have been carried out since.  I think this could be handled by create_backup.cmd but haven’t used this in years.Please advise.Thank you in advance.

Hello all, Is there a way that we can somehow color indication equipment (both Functional Objects and Serial Objects) in the Equipment Object Navigator - Structure?We have equipment split in 3 categories; In Production (Green), Service Support (Yellow/Orange) and End of Life (Red).

I’d like to start using the customer-solution repository in the IFS Lifecycle Experience Portal to replace our current source control repository. This will include such extra things like…Crystal Reports SQL Quick Reports Custom APIs PowerShell infrastructure scripts (for database refreshes, integrations) ACPs Print Agent XMLs etc.What are the best practices around dumping such code and configuration items into Git that aren’t intended to be touched by a delivery installer?
