We are rolling out EDI using IFS and have come across and issue with custom fields.  Standard .XML tags apparently do not handle $ sign.  All of IFS’s standard custom field attribute configuration uses $ in the field name, i.e. ( CF$_SP_ATTENTION, CF$_SP_SHPPING_ACCT).  Below you can see the two fields created on the incoming customer order screen: The .xml file sent from our EDI integrator is showing  below: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>-<ORDERS xmlns="urn:ifsworld-com:schemas:inbound_distribution_transactions_create_customer_order_request"><CURRENCY_CODE>USD</CURRENCY_CODE><CUSTOMER_COMPANY_COUNTRY>USA</CUSTOMER_COMPANY_COUNTRY><CUSTOMER_COMPANY_NAME>Webstaurant Store</CUSTOMER_COMPANY_NAME><CUSTOMER_POSTAL_ADDRESS>2205 OLD P

Hi, We’re having a lot of issues with profiles in our environment.  We’re currently in IFS Apps 10, Upd. 4.  We have our Dev upgraded to Upd 7, and have been testing, but are unsure if the following issue has been fixed yet.   We have an environment that consists of around 180 active users, and around 1-2x per week, I receive a ticket like this: I started keeping a log, and as you can see it’s not super consistent, but there are some paterns:     In order to fix the issue, I just go into their personal profile and delete the settings for the page they’re receiving the error on. For example, for “Nic G”, I opened his personal profile, deleted “tbwExpenseHead”, and t

I’m looking into creating permission sets for Aurnea Users, but am unsure of what has to be done in IFS Enterprise Explorer, or what has to be done through Aurnea only, and if there is any overlap in functionality. I’m looking for a general understating of what is Aurena specific, IFS EE specific, and what actions in regards to permission sets apply to both client types. I have outlined some of my questions below: Is the permission setting of Projections and pages for Aurnea done strictly in Aurnea, or is there some aspect of it that needs to be done in IFS EE. Can I setup permission sets for Aurnea only users without using IFS EE? If not what has to be done in IFS EE?If I allow a user Full access to an Aurnea Projection/page (through a permission set) does it permit the same access to the Enterprise Explorer page? (ex: Change Orders in Aurnea, and in EE).Is there some way to grant

Hello.I have created a new permission set and am modifying the ‘Entity Action Grants’ through the Projection Grants window for the ChangeRequestHandling Projection I have added to my permission set. (See image below). I am trying to restrict certain CRUD functionality for a specific entity (EcoRequest). I want to allow Update, but disallow Create and Delete functionality. Is there a way to currently do this in Aurena, or even in Enterprise Explorer? All I seem to be able to do is grant the full CRUD available. I’m using IFS version 10 Update 10. Any help with this would be appreciated. 

Hi All,We are testing in Aurena and finding that we are getting errors on basic functions. For example, when I use the navigator to navigate to Business Opportunity I instantly get an error. Here is the error we are seeing with the code below. Any help would be appreciated!

We are setting up and using the EDI function in IFS.  We have a request to add the customer’s company name to the outbound file.  Is there a way to do this without custom modification?  Or perhaps I am missing something and the data already exists?  Thanks,Mark
