Framework & Experience (Infrastructure, Cloud, Integration, Dev Tools)

Hi Community,I would like to understand the main differences between developing/customizing .projection files in IFS Applications 10 and IFS Cloud.I have experience with projection development in IFS Applications 10, and I am currently trying to understand how the same type of development should be approached in IFS Cloud.In particular, I would like to understand whether there are significant differences regarding:Projection file syntax and supported elements Defining entities, entitysets, queries, actions and functions Implementing custom business logic behind actions/functions Usage of .plsvc files Extending or overriding standard projections MARBLE syntax and code generation Security/grants for projection entities and actions Deployment and customization structure Using projections for Aurena/IFS Cloud Web pages versus external REST integrationsFor example, if I have an existing projection customization developed for IFS Applications 10, can the same approach generally be used in IF

As the overall idea of IFS's API, when you run an API, the processing result comes back, but at which point is the processing result actually output?- The message is sent after the API process is completed.- The message is sent as soon as the API is executed, without waiting for the API process to complete.

I have tested this in multiple 25R2 environments, and in all of them I get the same error: ./main.ps1 -resource 'MONITORING' returns following errors, it seems that the artifacts downloaded from IFS do not contain the folder ifsroot/infrastructure/ifs-monitoring? Hang tight while we grab the latest from your chart repositories......Successfully got an update from the "ifscloud" chart repositoryUpdate Complete. ⎈Happy Helming!⎈Error: chart "ifs-monitoring" matching 1.24.6 not found in ifscloud index.

The Art of IndexingIn an online transactional database, administrators tend to avoid adding indexes because of their impact to inserts and updates. This is true in a laboratory setting, but a real-world system has to deal with a collection of concurrent workloads. OLTP ERP systems tend to be very read-heavy, in the neighborhood of 94% in my experience. Reducing the aggregate read load can free system resources, and if that means getting the system out of a heavily-loaded state, intelligently adding indexes can indirectly (and paradoxically) improve real-world write performance. Your mileage may vary. I recommend iteratively measuring the effects of tuning your own system rather than following any given recipe. "Match Case"Oracle string comparisons are case-sensitive, unlike Microsoft SQL or MySQL. This means the query hints in Enterprise Explorer do not accurately reflect the effects of the "Match Case" flag, since extra work is necessary to scrub the table's values to uppercase first,

The documentation from 21R2 hinted at a great feature we could use:https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/21r2/020_installation/010_installing_fresh_system/010_planning_installation/010_storage_tier_considerations/010_oracle_db_19c/ Oracle Edition-based Redefinition¶Beginning with IFS Cloud 21R1, IFS offers framework support for Oracle Edition-based Redefinition.Oracle Edition-based Redefinition (EBR) allows online application patching and upgrades with uninterrupted availability of the application. When the installation of the upgrade is complete, the pre-upgrade application and the post-upgrade application can be used at the same time and as soon as there are no sessions any longer using the pre-upgrade application, it can be retired.Note, framework support implies that all editionable objects meet the requirements for EBR and they are, from a database perspective, handled as if EBR is used in IFS Cloud. However, full support for EBR in IFS Cloud and the possibility to apply online service up

How would a customer create a new custom webapp similar to the WAR files that APPSRV and GISINT use for mapping? Do you review customer requests on BitBucket, or is that only for internal use? Are the README files still valid for Cloud where our customer Git repo is hosted in Azure? (Would my webapp become available for every customer?) Please assume I have development experience outside of this framework.

Hello,We are currently revising the permission sets. We now have over 850 functional roles and numerous user roles (a total of over 1,097 permission sets). The two QuickReports titled “Permission Set Grants Reports” are no longer functioning as intended. They are no longer returning any data. We need these reports for the audit. These two QuickReports are running on the IFS-MIG as intended. However, we now have 256 permission sets there.We use IFS Cloud 25R1 SU 5Best regards,André

Dear developers,I'm having a problem when I create an event action of the SQL type.I want to use general parameters such as:#PERSON_NAME##TODAY#etc.How can I use them in PL/SQL code?‘#PERSON_NAME#’ gives me #PERSON_NAME#‘PERSON_NAME#’ gives me &IFS Application Owner Thank you in advance.

When an application messages addresses gets fail status, the framework has a mechanism to create a “one-time scheduled task” to re-execute the same message/address within a short time. At my customer environment, this sometimes fails. It is not the actual “Retry application message” that is the problem. The problem as I understands it, is the logic that catches the exception of the application message and then fails to add the “one-time scheduled task”. The error is shown on the application message with the error text “Next execution date must be between start date and stop date”. The reason to this error is that when the scheduled task is to be created, the logic fails to calculate a correct execution date. There is an logic checking that the execution date must be betweenCode if from Batch_Schedule_API.Insert___-- Check date intervalsIF newrec_.next_execution_date IS NOT NULL THEN IF newrec_.next_execution_date NOT BETWEEN nvl(newrec_.start_date, newrec_.next_execution_date - 1) AN

We have a list of documents attached to customer invoice and when the invoice is printed, we would like to t the invoice and all the attached documents should get printed after the invoice as annexures (in a certain sequence).We have configured reporting rule for this with the following parameters:However, the output is a little random. sometimes the annexures get printed after the invoice, but there are times when half the annexures come before the report, and half of them after. The need is multiple documents getting printed after the report as annexures. Can someone provide help here.

Hello,Brief description of our problem:our company recently migrated from IFS9 (Oracle 12) to IFS Cloud (Oracle 19c). Both databases run on Oracle RAC. IFS9 worked well with Oracle RAC, but IFS Cloud can only function properly on one Oracle RAC instance. When we run the application on two nodes, we start receiving errors like: ORA-20113: JtTaskTransaction.FND_LOCKED: Update could not be fetched because the work task transaction record is currently locked. Retry the operation.JtTaskTransaction - is one of several tasks, provided only as an example.Our DBA analyzed the database logs and found that there are no RAC waits at the top, but a lot of TX row lock contention, waits event in Oracle databases that occurs when multiple sessions attempt to modify the same row(s) simultaneously.Have you encountered similar problem in your practice? If so, could you please share some advice on how we can solve it or what we can try to find a solution? Currently we have service update 24.2.1. Thank you

Hi,When I am trying to schedule an IAL in IFS10, the background job is showing error details as “Table not found. Redeploy the scripts manually                    ORA-20105: IalObject.REPTABNOTEXIST”When the same IAL is configured as Live data, then there is no issue in fetching data.Could anyone help in resolving this error? Thanks in advance!

We are running on IFS Cloud 24R1 SU4. I tried setting up a data archive job, archived a customer_order_tab record. WHen trying to use the Restore Archive Data functionality, nothing comes up in the Restore Archive Data to choose. It should populate with the record that is archived. IS this functionality not working in IFS Cloud?

I’m trying to navigate from a lobby element to the Document revisions tab.  I’m getting an error calling out invalid date format.  This is my SQL that works great for the lobby element, but won’t allow navigation to the document revisions. DOC_CLASS in ('NDA SUPPLIER', 'SUCONTRACT', 'SUISO', 'SULIABIL', 'SUPRICE') and OBJSTATE <> (select &AO.DOC_ISSUE_API.FINITE_STATE_ENCODE__('Obsolete') from dual) and (DT_PLANNED_FINISH < trunc(to_date( '#TODAY#', 'YYYY-MM-DD-HH24:MI:SS' ))+ 90 or DT_PLANNED_FINISH is null) Does anyone know how to code this so I can use the navigation?

I am using Cloud 25R1 and Customer Statements of Account are not sending, I think because the “Created From” account is set to IFSPRINT. It should be IFSCONNECT (see screencap). I don’t know how to change that, hopefully someone can help.

I was looking into the new Report Rules – PDF Insert from Document Management functionality, and I’m having some difficulties getting it to work.https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/25r2/050_reporting/000_reporting/251_operational_reporting/011_setup/070_report_rules/?h=report+rule#3_pdf_insert_from_document_management The pre-configuration for IFSWEBREPORT is correct, and the rule itself executes successfully. However, when previewing the resulting PDF, it is not merged with the file I specified.The business requirement is to merge multiple invoices for the same customer into a single PDF directly in IFS.I also have a few questions regarding DocumentNo and KeyRef:Are DocumentNo and KeyRef correlated, or are they independent? If I understand correctly, DocumentNo should allow me to filter in Document Management and identify the PDF I want to attach. Is that correct? Can I use a SELECT/query in DocumentNo to retrieve multiple invoices and merge their PDFs? Should KeyRef point to the current pr

I have enabled one of the additional languages in IFS cloud 24R1 and refreshed the language cache.But when changing the language for one of the users it is giving me below “Language code ”fi“ does not exist in the translation database”Please guide.

Hi,We have an existing IFS Cloud 25.1.5 Remote Deployment environment that was originally installed using the Quick Installation.We are enabling SMB File Storage for the first time by following the official documentation.Current situation:The environment is already running. The ifs-storage namespace already exists. The csi-smb-controller and csi-smb-node pods are already running. SMB File Storage has not been configured before. We have updated ifscloud-values.yaml with the required SMB configuration (ifsStorageSmbCredentials, ifsfilestorage.fssEnabled, fssSmbSharePath, etc.).My question is:After updating ifscloud-values.yaml, what is the supported procedure to apply these configuration changes to the existing environment?Is there an additional deployment or configuration update step required after modifying the file?Thanks!
