Hi,

Does someone know in which version/release in IFS Apps, the table Person_Info_Comm_Method_tab was removed ?

I can see that it’s not in App9 and later, but can see in App8.

However, in the environment I checked, that table is not being updated with the records added to the Communication Method tab in the Person record. There are some old records in that table.

The Comm_Method_tab where party_type = ‘PERSON’ is the table which is get updated with the records added.

This causes me to think that the earlier table might have been removed in a release/service pack in App8.

Someone have an idea ?

 

Thank you,

Hi @ThushAsanka 

Communication methods have been redesigned in later APP7 and during APP75 SP4 by moving data into COMM_METHOD_TAB from various tables including PERSON_INFO_COMM_METHOD_TAB. But the PERSON_INFO_COMM_METHOD_TAB was kept in APP8 as well (seems only with old data) and then permanently removed in APP9.

Hope this helps.


Hi,

 

After taking a quick look at my app9 environment and doing a quick debug, I think the tables used now are comm_method_tab and person_info_tab.  There are two views that get referenced from the person screen - person_info_comm_method and person_info_comm_method2 that join these two.

Thank you, Hypervox.. Yes, comm_method_tab with Party_type being “PERSON” seems to be the best approach to get the comm methods.
