Hi there,

I’m know it’s possible to create a hyperlink that triggers an external application. 

 

Does IFS Application ERP support this?

 

I’d like to integrate to IFS (the program, not cloud) create a record and have the URL returned.

Then upon success, provide the user a hyperlink that would then open the ERP system with the order directly.

 

IFSApp://recordURLParameterHere


<a href="IFSApp://recordURLParameterHere">Open Created Record</a>

 

Thank you all for your insight

Hello,
It is possible to open a specific frame, even with parameters:

The URL part comes from the IFS address:

And the first part of the address is the access point to IFS.

A fully qualified URL will do the needful, so yes - IFS supports it.

We call it “External Search” and here comes the specificatoin: https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/foundation1/050_development/022_user_interface/045_ee_dev/080_external_search/default.htm

 

Easy way to get it done: Format the URL as below.

HTTPS:\\<SYSTEM_URL>\/client/runtime/Ifs.Fnd.Explorer.application?url=<FORM_URL>?EXTERNAL_SEARCH=<FIELD_ID>=<VALUE>

E.g. : https://xxxxxxxx:xxxxx/client/runtime/Ifs.Fnd.Explorer.application?url=ifsapf:tbwOrderQuotationLines?EXTERNAL_SEARCH=INQUIRY_NO=xxxxxx

(If you generate this URL programmatically, you can retrieve the SYSTEM URL via the PLSQLAP_ENVIRONMENT_TAB)
