IFS10 - UPD8 - O&G ExtensionWe are an O&G company working with mobile offshore units. For salaries we currently use a system called OCS - designed to fit the Collective agreement for employees on mobile offshore units and drilling and catering on permanently placed facilities on the Norwegian continental shelf. We would like to know if there are other IFS customers who currently use IFS for reporting by offshore personnel, and transfer the data to another system for salaries. Please get in touch with me if you use OCS for salaries (integrated with IFS), or another system and have designed IFS for a similar offshore agreement. We would like to hear about your experiences, in order to find out if it is possible to use IFS for reporting and integrate with OCS for salaries.Many thanks in advance!

Training events are often registered after the actual training have taken place just to keep a record of the trainings held. When adding participants to training event we very often get warning message “Training participant xxx might be unavailable for the training due to absence. See the reference text column for more details.In reference text we see Time Card Absence;Looking at employee time card we see that employee was present during this day.Does anyone know the logic used? On the training events there is only start and end date and nr of hours but no start time.

Afternoon all, I have come across an issue that I am sure has plagued others before. Way back in the heady days of 7.5 being implemented the business made a decision to opt out of a numerical ID system for our Person and User ID records. Instead we opted for <First Initial><Surname> e.g. NTAYLOR. The problem we have is that one of our users got married and now the Person ID and User ID do not reflect her now taken name and has asked if we can update the Person ID/User ID to correctly reflect her new surname. As these are somewhat key fields within the system I am pretty sure there isn’t a standard way of achieving this as it would need to flush the entire system to update everything that was ever posted with these ID’s. If anyone knows of a way how to do this or (for the IFS employees) if  a data fix exists for this kind of change it would be interesting to know!   Regards Nathan

We currently have IFS Application 10 Update 8 installed in our environment and we plan on moving from IFS Enterprise Explorer to Aurena in the coming months.  I’ve been playing with the Aurena environment and I haven’t been able to locate the Time Clock terminal within Aurena. Do anyone know if IFS as ported the Time Clock terminal to the Aurena client or do we need to wait until a future IFS Application 10 Update packag? Thank you,William Klotz 

Is there a way to attach a Photo in Trip Tracker to a Mileage claim? We would like users to attach their fuel receipt when claiming Mileage, however to Photo option does not appear under the Mileage section. The photos option only seems to appear when entering an expense claim in the ‘Receipts’ section. As a work around we have created an Expense Code called ‘FUEL RECEIPTS’ and asked users to attach the claim using this expense code. Expense claims don’t allow 0 value lines so we ask them to enter 0.01. Allow we can default this line to non-reimbursable, it’s not ideal and could easily be avoided if we could add photos via the mileage entries.

I am trying to create a Fire Roll Call that lists current employees when they are classed as present.    When you look at the Present Employees screen in IFS the view is COMPANY_PERS_ASSIGN_BASIC. The Present column calls the following API to get the result of whether they are present or not:   Time_Pers_Diary_Clock_Util_Api.Is_Present_Offset(company_id, emp_no,null )    and returns a 1 or 0. This was working fine in my Crystal Report but is not available when you add the WEB_UTIL_API.  I have tried adding it as a custom field within the COMPANY_PERS_ASSIGN_BASIC view but cannot seem to get this to work.     How can I get the result of the API into my report?     Any advice gratefully received. 

Hi, Can someone guide me on how to use an image stored in the database table in an operational report? I have stored the image as a blob in the database. And I was trying to fetch the image using a select statement. But, it is not showing the image even though it shows the value of the string when trying to preview the report. Therefore, any idea on how can we call an image stored in the database in the report? Regards, Sachinthani.
