Does anyone know if there is a way to call into IFS via API to generate the Invoice PDF? We currently email our customers their invoices but we would like to have our customers get a copy of their invoice on-demand via our website. Thus the idea would be to call IFS via API and generate or pull the archived PDF.
I don’t know about invoices, but you can print Purchase Orders through methods discussed here:
We successfully did something of this nature to generate a purchase order PDF then attach it to an Outlook email for a user to manually send wherever they wished (required a custom integration written in C#, of which we are doing many).
Good luck,
Joe Kaufman
Did you check the Interface browser? https://servername:48080/interfacebrowser/#/
Otherwise the pdf is stored in the table/view pdf_archive_tab/pdf_archive.
SELECT p.pdf
FROM ARCHIVE a JOIN pdf_archive p ON a.result_key = p.result_key
WHERE report_id = 'CUSTOMER_ORDER_IVC_REP'
AND a.notes LIKE '%Order No: ' || '&ORDER_NO' ||'%'
It also occurs to me that depending upon your requirements you could also use a report rule.
