Since upgrading to version 27, the IFS Data Migration Excel Add-in has been updated from version 10.14.1.0 to 10.26.1.0. While the add-in installs correctly with version 10.26.1.0, it does not function as expected within Excel. Specifically, the buttons within the add-in (e.g., Connect, Settings, Info) do not display their labels and are non-functional, despite all prerequisite software being installed. The add-in works correctly in **Microsoft® Excel® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2504 Build 16.0.18730.20226)**. However, the same functionality fails in **Microsoft® Excel 2016 MSO (16.0.10415.20025) 64-bit**. Is there a known solution or workaround for this issue?

Hello. By trying to sync a new LU, I have this error message I don’t understand the error message, I already made a couple of custom LU but with no error. Thanks for your help. IFS APP10 UPD 5

How have others, or what is the best practice for protecting IFS Enterprise Explorer with Multi-Factor Authentication when exposed to the web via reverse proxy? Aurena is very straight forward, as you can just configure a Conditional Access policy for it to enforce MFA and target the Aurena apps. When configured as per the documentation we were given when setting up Apps 10 for O365 authentication, the Enterprise Explorer app doesn’t come up in the list of apps meaning there’s no obvious way to enable MFA for enterprise explorer, thus exposing IFS to the public internet with no MFA. One option looks like Azure App Proxy but interested to see how/what others use.

I have a custom attribute that is a Date/Time field: I am trying to pre-populate the current Date/Time in this field when a new record is created. I am familiar with the process enrichment BPA flow, and I have identified the correct projection to tie into. I am also inserting the current user that triggers the BPA in a different field, so i know my flow is working correctly. However, when I try to insert the current date/time, i receive an error. This is my flow: The code in my “Get Current DateTime” node: var currentDate = new Date();execution.setVariable("Cf_Pcx_Datetime", currentDate); When triggered, I receive this error: I have also tried the following code and received the same error: var currentDate = new Date();var isoDate = currentDate.toISOString(); execution.setVariable("Cf_Pcx_Datetime", isoDate ); I have also tried to hardcode an ISO string and supply that variable, same error. For reference, I am on 24R2.5. What am I missing? Thanks in advance!

Hi team, FND_SYNC permission is defined per default in 24R1 Cloud IFS release. What is it for ? Is it necessary for a “regular” end user ? Our environment is one cloud instance only with no specific other architecture.

Hi Community, I would really appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction to troubleshoot the below error. Point to note: Out of multiple available layouts only one the standard IFS layout of the Pick List for Material Requisition can be previewed. All the others give the below error. Exported the erroneous layouts and loaded on to another Apps 10 environment and tested. It works perfectly fine. Imported custom layout from another environment to this environment and tested, it works perfectly fine. Restarted the middleware server thinking insufficient memory, still no luck. Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.

Hello, Hoping you can help. We need to create an end point(IFS10) to pass to a third party to return three fields of information. My understanding is this achieved via the IFS Developer Studio. I create a projection, which will give me an end point and via postman i can send the data which will be later used to run a transaction created via stored procedure. Not used developer studio before and seem to hitting errors when creating the projection, not sure if we need to use the service layer and if Aurena is involved. Hoping to hear of anyone that has set this up please? Thanks Ross

How can I make a field type controller in to a look up . As I know Control type should change and should have a reference to be a look up . is there a way to do this by just using page configurations ?

Hi, We have Apps10 and with Boomi are trying to add a line to the Customer Order Line history table. We have this working in IEE using the API call but with Boomi are getting the ODP_ILLEGAL_STATE error message. Is there a work around for it. In API Explorer I can not see a Create (Post) command. Also interested if it can be done in IFS Cloud

Hi everyone, Did anyone experiencing an internal server error while logging into IFS Cloud? It happens randomly even with initial load on IFS Cloud. Sometimes refreshing the page doesn't work. The user needs to restart the browser or navigate back to the startup page and log in again. Is this a cache issue? We are using Google Chrome. Are there any tricks to get rid of this? Thanks!

I am trying to setup Functional areas in SOD. Can someone please tell me what is different between the New and the New__ methods in an API. Which should I select?

When I create a task for a follow up for myself, it doesn’t trigger a notification on the notification panel. User will need to go to Tasks to see it. If someone else is assigned, the notification will be triggered. Is this a known limitation (Customer version is 24R2)?

In Apps 10 Enterprise explorer we would like users to be prompted to enter some of our custom field when they create an MRB case using the wizard on the Quantity in stock right mouse button to create an MRB case. Is this functionality available in Apps 10 or will Aurena all you to do this in Apps 10?

hello, I want to link to the Aurena “Equipment Object Navigator” with an expanded view of a structure and store that URL on the objects in our BIM.It almost works, however, the Aurena ÙRL’s become extremely long and cryptic! like 1700 characters! IFS Aurena client version: 10.24.* How can we understand and simplify and calculate the Aurena URL for objects and the Equipment Object Navigator? Thanks!

Question for you all. The help videos in the scope tool tell you how to manually add CRIM items but how do we manually add customer requirements? The scope tool manual doesn't tell you either. I am welcome to all ideas! Thanks!

Hello everyone, I try to add a navigation link between Shop Floor Workbench page and NRC Connection Objects page.The search parameter is the keyref of the nrc connection page, which contains Contract and PartNo (available from Workbench page), like : (startswith(tolower(KeyRef),'contract=vern^partno=ac130m39403')) The problem is I’m not able in any way to make it workIf I use the variables as filter value, it will add simple quote ( ‘ ) as prefixe and suffixe of the value, which break the search syntax.Like : (startswith(tolower(KeyRef),'contract=’vern’^partno=’ac130m39403'’))I can’t make a search by contract and by partNo because partNo is not available as search / filter on the NRC Connection page Is there a way to make this link works ?

I'm trying to configure a Report Rule that only triggers when an operational report is executed from a specific Command button I've added via Page Designer. Setup: Added Command button that executes ExecuteOperationalReport Created ParameterMapping setting REPORT_RULE_ID = 1 for this button Configured Report Rule with condition to check this parameter Issue: The Report Rule should only trigger when the report is requested from my custom action button created in Page Designer, not from other sources. However, the condition is not working. What I've tried: Various parameter formats in the Report Rule condition: [@REPORT_RULE_ID], [REPORT_RULE_ID], etc. Verified ParameterMapping is correctly set to pass REPORT_RULE_ID = 1. From developer console, I can see that the parameter is being passed to the report request (it’s part of the generated URL). The Report Rule still doesn't recognize the parameter condition and does not trigger at all. Question: Is there a way to trigger a Report Rule on

Hi, We are using Aurena Agent and this gives us possibility to print on physical printers. We can set default printer for logical printers, but is it possible to pre-define physical printer to be default printer and the “default” printer will be filled out in Print Dialog by default? The printer is already defined as default printer on this PC, but it does not help. “No Printout” is filled out in Print Dialog. Can set up Print Dialog so it will “remember” the last used/selected printer? I think PrintDialog “remembered” the last used printer in earlier versions of IFS Cloud (22R1-23R1) but not after the last update (23R2Su5). Br. Barbara

Hi, I'm trying to automatically set the “Price Freeze” flag on a customer order line to “Frozen” via BPA, but without positive result. My Workflow is very simple, I just have an IFS API script with code execution.setVariable('PriceFreeze','Frozen'). I tried to use several call type triggers combined with CustomerOrderHandling projection, with no result. At first I tried calling Workflow on CustomerOrderLine_Default, with the execution parameters: type- Process Enrichment, timing- After.The response was correct, but during process enrichment an ETag is added so that the record is not handled as new by the page (for example, there is no way to enter an item number). I then tried calling Workflow on CalculateAndFetchSalesLineTotalWithHeaderParams, also with the execution parameters: type- Process Enrichment, timing- After. Unfortunately, the value “PriceFreze” was returned as “Free” because this variable from the record is not accessible from the Workflow execution, but is passed in the b

We have several Markdown fields on the Service Contract screen. We are able to show messages to users and display or hide the markdown fields based on the values in the primary entity. We would like to display a markdown notification to the user if data is missing in the sub entities of the service contract. For example, we want the message to show the if the count of the services on the contract is less than two. In the help page, it seems to suggest that the api.count function is only for the main entity set - has anyone had a similar requirement and been able to get a count of a sub-entity to influence the page design in this way?

I am trying to update a record in PL/SQL because our users cannot do it on IEE. They said it freezes. So I got the PL/SQL trace, but when I try to run it, it gives this error: How can I unlock this record?

Users are randomly encountering a 400 BadRequest error when attempting to log in to IFS Cloud 23R1. This error prevents affected users from successfully logging in. The environment consists of a cluster configuration with three application servers, and client terminals connect to the application gateway during login. The error is random and temporary, occurring inconsistently across different devices and users; it may stop on one device and start on another, even among terminals with identical settings on the same network, and while it sometimes resolves itself after a wait, clearing the browser cache does not help, with no correlation to the time of day.

We are using the APIs: RequestServices/CreateRequest and ReqWorkTaskServices/AddReqWorkTask each day to integrate requests and work tasks from a third party system to IFS Cloud 24R2. We are using Workato as our middleware. Each day we receive at least 2 errors 404 Not Found { "error": { "code": "ODP_RESOURCE_NOTFOUND", "message": "Resource not found." } } - but when we reprocess the job, the same data succeeds without any errors, so we know there are no data issues or functional issues within either side of the process. The integration user has the necessary permissions, is a person, assigned to the right companies and sites - and the fact that when replayed the message succeeds, shows this is not a security or setup issue. Our volumes are increasing and we therefore do not want to be in a position where we are having to manually intervene with our integrations to replay these jobs. We are trying to understand if anyone else receives these constant issues, or has any suggestions for us

Hi, When values in the Characteristics tab of the Inventory Part page are changed, records are saved in the history tables for InvPartIndiscreteChar LU, which is based on InventoryPartChar. A quick report has been created to show this history using the history_log_attribute view. Although data exists in history_log_attribute_tab, it wasn’t visible due to a security check on the InvPartIndiscreteChar LU: This is the query behind above check. The reason for the security check failure is that FND_PROJ_ENTITY_GRANT_TAB had no entry for the InvPartIndiscreteChar entity. Normally, this table is updated when permission is granted to a projection using that entity. But in this case, no projection directly referenced it. To resolve this, we created a custom projection, granted permissions to it, and the report worked. Custom Projection Interestingly, even after removing those permissions, the report still works — the entry in the table remains. Questions: Is there any other recommended way of h
