Hi guys IFS 24.1.9 So one of my users raised a PO and received the goods. Instead of undoing the inspection result to cancel the PO, he did a supplier shipment and actually delivered it. Now he needs to cancel the PO. Since the shipment status is delivered, there's no way to undo the Supplier Shipment. I was thinking of making an RMA [registering supplier as a customer and the purchase part as a sales part, etc] and then getting the parts on the inventory location, but that also seems not possible. Has anyone done something similar in IFS to undo a delivered Supplier Shipment and thereby cancel the PO? Please let me know. Thanks,Asela

Hello. Does anyone have an idea of how to use the POC Method Manual in the financial project of IFS? According to the help description for Manual: “The POC is based on a value manually entered by the user. The method cannot be used by Planning Projects, IFS/Project”. Where or how exactly is this value entered? Would appreciate any help.

Hi All, When we try to send files from application to FTP server, following error message appear in the application message screen.Caused by: java.io.IOException: Error while writing to file [EDI810_CD18369111827.xml] However, once we change the FTP details (FTP reader) error changed to “Error during file sending Caused by: java.io.IOException: Could not login to FTP(S) server”. Therefore it seems the communication to FTP server working correctly.Note - We can access the FTP from file transfer software (WinScp/Filezilla) to place files in the FTP server using same credentials/details.

I recently created a simple action:action GetResult Binary {   initialcheck none;   parameter ResultId Integer;}This action will simply return a BLOB with roughly 200 kilobytes.When I try to call this, I get the following exception back:2024-08-19T11:41:16.882975687+02:00 stdout F {"event.module":"liberty_message","host.name":"ifsapp-odata-5978755579-8f8d2","ibm_userDir":"\/opt\/ifs\/wlp\/usr\/","ibm_serverName":"defaultServer","message":"2024-08-19 09:41:16.882 ERROR 6758 5aaf35b1-af2f-4941-9c87-14d835d39635 com.ifsworld.fnd.provider.processor.FndErrorProcessor.processError() : Error Stack : Attribute 'GetResult' with model type 'Binary' has length of '224689', which exceeds the upper bound '64000'.com.ifsworld.fnd.common.exceptions.ODataProviderPayloadTooLargeException: Attribute 'GetResult' with model type 'Binary' has length of '224689', which exceeds the upper bound '64000'. at com.if

Hi All,Are you familiar with a solution that can permanently remove all detached document revisions from the system (Customer is using Applications 10)?Additionally, the deletion process needs to identify and remove documents based on their attached date — specifically, those attached more than five days ago (Attached_Date < SYSDATE - 5). I'm also exploring whether it's possible to separate attachments (e.g., PDF, JPEG files) from BLOB entries in the IFSAPP_LOB table, assuming this is where the documents are stored.Any suggestions on how to approach this would be greatly appreciated.Thank you.Kind regards,Santhushi D.

Hi IFS! Is there a way for IFS users to provide feedback within IFS after successfully completing something? My product team is configuring IFS to enable our end users to complete their work in a better process than before. We would like to capture their feedback on completing their work in IFS right after they successfully complete a something, so that we can get their feedback while it’s fresh in their minds, and can configure IFS to better meet their needs. I am envisioning some kind of side panel, small window, or modal that prompts users to give a brief rating or description of their experience completing their work. Please see below examples to illustrate what I mean. Does anything like this exist today in IFS? Is there anything we can leverage that can meet our need?

I recently attended the IFS Academy training course called “RESTful API Integration Development - IFS Applications 10” which explains how use IFS Connect to build IFS Apps 10 interfaces using restful APIs. I’ve have been trying to apply what I learned but cant get it to work :-( I’m calling a rest API of another platform to obtain some XML data, and then use a callback function to create some records in IFS based on the returned XML data. The Rest API call is working, and is returning the expected XML, but there’s an issue with my Callback function. Here’s what I’ve done so far... I used postman to confirm the URL and parameters needed for the external Rest API.In IFS Connect, I created a Routing Address pointing to that external Rest API, and created a 2nd routing address of type “PL/SQL” which calls “plsql_Rest_Sender_API.Rest_Common_Callback”.I also created an outbound routing rule which links these two routing addresses. I

Hello everyone, An issue appeared on one of my environment when I try to create resource connections :As you see, there is no connections for this resource but this message is displayed. This was working fine last week, and I don’t know what happened. Do you have an idea ?Thanks, Simon

Hello to all,we are going to update from 23R2 SU17 to 25R1. Now we have a fresh 25R1 installation, and we are testing it on our data. We know resource assignment has been made more flexible, apart from the person resource type, the other resource types are supported in 25R1 and can be assigned to a project activity.To date, our users have utilized the Project Employee Allocations screen to manage these allocations. Now we can see that the Project Employee Allocation screen is discontinued. The same is true with the Resource Shift Pattern Mapping page.Are there any replacements for these two screens in 25R1?Thank you very muchBest regardsAntonin

Hi,Is it possible to create a Custom Field (Persistent or otherwise) that is selected via a LoV, and set it up so that only the parts with those Product Codes are visible when a new line is created?Here is the list: When creating a new line in Engineering Part Revision under ‘Consists Of’, it would be great if you could select your Product Code and only see options when choosing a Part Number that has those Product Codes.I’ve created a persistent field called ‘Test’. It is possible to bring up the LoV and select your Product Code: Here, I would like it so that when selecting the ‘Part Number’, only the items within that group appear. Right now, all part numbers are shown:

Hello,I have a question regarding the Production Line. Why is the production line connected to the calendar as it is already set up for work center? What would happen if I put an “empty calendar” for the production line and the right one is correctly connected for the work center? What would be the impact?Thank you!

Hi, when using CTP in customer orders to calculate the delivery date, the system uses calendar days to calculate the purchasing lead times rather than using working days in supplier or distribution calendar.Pls. consider adding an option to either use calendar or working days. If this is is considered to be touched in a future release, consider this as well Additionally consider this if CTP gets touched We are happy to decribe in more detail if needed.  Thanks

Hi, The calculation of the cumulated lead time for purchase parts does not consider any calendar setting. Neither the distribution calendar, nor the supplier calendar nor the external transport calendar in supply chain matrix. Pls. consider making this consistent or parametrizable to use calendar settings if set up in the system. Thanks
