Hi together,we have the requirment to develop an interface which transfers data to an external system via REST and to use the response for a 2nd call. We did similar things already many times, usually we call the connect framework from PL/SQL (PLSQL_REST_SENDER_API) and process the response in PL/SQL via callback. This works fine as long the response data is placed in the body by the external system. But in this case we are getting back the response in the header. Is there any possibility to access the header tags? In this case we would need the information of “Location” for further processing.   

I’m trying to add an email into IFS Cloud programmatically. ✅Using https://ifspsd2-d05.demo.ifs.cloud/int/ifsapplications/entity/v1/BusinessMailEntity.svc allows me to insert my email header with create@BusinessMailSet.❌When I try to include the Body or HtmlBody parameter, I get a BadRequest error. How do I add my email body to the new header entry?

Hi, Does anyone know the logic for IFS Apps 10 when running costing for one specific part status, how does IFS determin what parts to include in the run?In the background job it  will show x nr of top parts where detected.The number here is much larger then top parts with the specific part status. Thanks in advance!Anna 

Hi @All,I´ve one question, we just installed Update 27 in APPS 10 and got now a strange error message, when we tried to change a weight (WEIGHT_NET in PART_CATALOG) for a part that is in use.The message tells us, that it is not possible to change a weight after there is a invoiced Shipment/customer order for that part.Is this a bug or a “new” function in IFS which cames with the update (we updated from 13 to 27)?Does anyone have experience with that issue?Thanks for any feedback.BRAndre

We have put in Update 28 to our 2 test environments.  We have found that the Purchase Order Authorization screen > View Only My Next Step generates an error for authorised users. If you are not an authoriser and therefore have nothing to authorise there is not an error.If you are an authoriser you get an ‘insufficient privileges’ error.Any ideas?  Is this another known bug in Update 28 that we have not been told about.PS - 2.0 folder has been deleted 

Hi,I found when trying to publish an imported custom projection (from ACP or item)  it gives an error when all the required other configurations in place.  This is in 24R2 3“Database error occurred. Contact administrator.Error details: [{"code":4050,"message":"ORA-04050: invalid or missing procedure, function, or package name"}] “.When looking into further it is found that entry is not getting added into the table custom_projection_tab when importing hence it fails when publishing.Any workaround for this? Thanks,Best Regards,Methshika    

Hi everyone, Does anyone know if there are existing connectors or plug-ins available to integrate IFS Cloud with Oracle Primavera Project Cloud (specifically the Primavera Cloud version, not P6 EPPM)? We’re exploring options for project planning and scheduling synchronization — ideally to exchange WBS structures, activity progress, and milestone updates between the two systems. Any insights, documentation, or examples from similar implementations would be really helpful. Thanks in advance!

We are currently running on IFS Cloud - 24R2.0 - on premiseWe have multiple companies in our IFS environment. For each of these companies, we have set up database Task Schedules to run the Notify Next Authorizer task for Supplier Invoices.For each company, the task is set to run once a day, either at 6pm or 6am.We are having an issue with one scheduled task. We discovered it had been running every minute instead of once a day. When we look at the Execution Plan for each of the companies, we can see that the separator is a caret instead of a semi-colon like on all of the other tasks. This is the only task that has the caret and the only one that runs every minute.The issue is that we don’t know how we got this set up that way. The details of the scheduled task look the same as our other tasks and we don’t see anything that would indicate anything other than once a day.Any ideas on how we would have done this?  Thanks for any insight you can provide.

Hi everybody,  I would like to import an external customer payment and match the information with an invoice by creating a mixed payment.  Basic data : Create a template  Create a Payment Format ID ; Create Payment Method and set payment method per institute and external payment parameters When we do that we can import correctly the CSV file and this file will be generated in the path menu External Payments :   When i check the detail i don't have a matching with the invoice and i miss the information   If someone know the setting to do? I think we have some setting to do in the path menu external payment parameters but i don’t know how to do it correctly.  Thank in advance for your reply,  Best Regards,Jeremy

Hi all, One of my construction industry customer frequently interact with multiple suppliers, including subcontractors and small suppliers. Each supplier is primarily identified by their ABN, which is a unique tax number. The ABN is stored in the association no field on the supplier page. During the processing of Purchase Requisitions, Purchase Orders, RFQs, Subcontracts, and Manual Supplier invoices, the customer often searches for suppliers by ABN to locate the correct record quickly.We need to do modifications to add the association number to the supplier selection process in the purchase requisition, purchase order, subcontract, etc.. Have any of you had a similar experience? If so, please share your experience or the workaround solutions you adopted. The customer is currently in the established stage with Cloud 25r1.  Thanks Bhaskara

Hi, In the Resource Monitoring Gantt, the assigned tasks displays the Work Task no. and the Task Description. E.g.   Is it possible to show the Actual Object instead of the Task Description without the need to modify the system? The Actual Object and further fields are displayed when the mouse hovers over the bar. Thanks in advance!

In 25R1, I am creating a Customer from the New Contact Screen.The duplicate check rule for single hit and combined hit are set as Active.The duplicate check action setup Default Action has been set as Prevent Save and set as Active.I entered the exact same name as a Customer that already exists.However, the duplicate check does not prevent the record from being saved.Any ideas as to the reason for this failure on the duplicate check ?    

What is it? The E-sign feature is available from IFS Cloud 23R2 (Cloud deployment only, Remote currently not supported). At its core it's an integration between IFS Document Management ("Docman") and Adobe Acrobat Sign.In order to send a document for signing you need to first upload it to Docman, release it, and attach it to some screen/business object. For details on the process, watch the video linked below.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aed1j9VOPDU Agreements/envelopes When you send a document for signing to one or more recipients an "agreement" is created in Adobe Sign. The agreement acts like a container for the document and the list of recipients, and supports the whole flow from sending, signing and retrieving the signed document. As of 24R2, you can only send one document per agreement. An agreement in Adobe Sign is what other E-sign solutions sometimes calls "envelopes."IFS keeps track of every agreement that has been created and, to use a term that's more known and to keep t

We are upgrading to Cloud soon and I was under the impression ALL USERS will have access to Excel Migration - need confirmation and also need to know if the set up is still the same as in 10 - have to set up each user in Data Migration Users table

IFS Cloud 25R1 Hi All,Is it possible to add a Attribute into a Rest End Point URL in an Event action?Rest End Point URL example**/projection/v1/UserHandling.svc/Users(Identity= <add the attribute value here>)  

Can someone confirm what tables are not copied from Prod to UAT/CFG during a database clone? We are on 23R2 upgrading to 24R2 and I noticed that the database clones? I created a support ticket to learn this but they said I should post it in community instead. Thanks!

Hello,When creating an integration schedule, there is an option to ‘Generate Result File’.  If this process is being executed by a system integration user account (in our case ‘INT_ADMIN’), where does this result file go and from where would we be able to retrieve it?Thanks,Richard

Does anyone have experience in overriding the connector instance (mail) on report rules?On the report rule, Route to Connect, I can’t get this to work.If there is a mail sender that is marked as ‘default instance’ it will be used when sending the mail. If there is no default mail sender, IFS will select the first mail sender in alphanumerical order. Which means that if you create a mail sender with name ‘AAA’ it will be used before ‘BBB’.On an event action, of type E-mail, it is possible to override the Mail sender.Is this a bug or am I missing something?In  my testing I have created a very simple report rule, that will trigger each time a specific report is printed - and mail it to me. Not a real world scenario but a simplified example that is easy to test. If I select action ‘Send Email’ I can’t override the mail sender at all, seems to only be available on ‘Route to connect’. 

Hello IFS Community,Does anyone know how to send an email via a report rule using a custom sender instead of the default “ifs_noreply”?I’ve already created the custom sender and have successfully sent emails using the PDF_REPORT_CREATED event action. However, I’d like to test this using report rules, but I can’t find where to configure the sender.In code, it would look something like this( See below)/ How could I set up my custom sender in report rules?:   COMMAND_SYS.Mail(      sender_      => '',      from_        => '',        to_list_     => to_email_,      subject_     => 'NCR  ' || NVL(ncr_no_, '(unknown)'),      text_        => mail_body_,      -- content_type_ => 'text/html; charset=UTF-8',          -- include if supported      attachments_ => attachments_,      mail_sender_  => 'MY_CUSTOME_SENDER_HERE'   ); 

Hello, we sometimes have an issue about calling a specific event which runs an http request, sometimes, IFS takes a lot of time to execute the event. How can we reduce this time execution? Thanks
