Hi HCM experts,Does IFS provide an integration API to terminate an employee via a REST API?We have a third party HR system and when they terminate an employee , we need to call IFS REST API and then terminate corresponding employee in IFS.I know IFS has an assistant called ‘Terminate Employment’ to do this process by a user and an associated REST API for the assistant specific operations however utilizing assistant specific APIs are in most cases not possible or complicated for integations.

Hi All, I have noticed some BR related print jobs are failing with the following error and it is reoccurring: ORA-04061: existing state of has been invalidatedORA-04061: existing state of package "IFSAPP.APP_MESSAGE_PROCESSING_API" has been invalidatedORA-04065: not executed, altered, or dropped package "IFSAPP.APP_MESSAGE_PROCESSING_API"ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called: "IFSAPP.APP_MESSAGE_PROCESSING_API"ORA-06512: at "IFSAPP.APPLICATION_MESSAGE_JMS_TR", line 2ORA-04088: error during execution of trigger 'IFSAPP.APPLICATION_MESSAGE_JMS_TR' I reviewed the logs and observed the same error reported in the J2EE folder logs. Currently, there are no invalid objects on the server. Based on some knowledge sources, I found that objects like these can become invalid due to the "Rebuild indexes" database task. R&D has addressed this issue with bug fix 156423, which is included in UPD10.Upon further investigation, I found another article suggesting that this issue o

We are experiencing an issue in IFS Apps 10 Update 24 where filtering on the employee_status column is not returning expected results.For example, the following query does not return any data: SELECT t.employee_status, t.company_id, t.emp_no  FROM ifsapp.COMPANY_PERSON_ALL t  WHERE t.employee_status = 'Beëindigd'; However, when we select data without the filter, we can see that the column employee_status contains the value "Beëindigd", so the filter should return results but does not.This issue started 2–3 days ago, and the query was working fine before. We suspect there might be a change in session parameters or how special characters are handled.Has anyone else faced this issue in IFS Apps 10 UPD 24? Any insights or solutions would be appreciated. Note: The same filter is working fine in IFS enterprise explorer SQL query tool and in Employee file screen also. Thanks in advance!

In the new Team Assignment functionality we can set up a structure of managers and team members under a team id. There is however no way of looking at the full structure to easily see how the team is built up. For example, User3 has User2 as a supervisor, and User2 has User1 as supervisor. There is no page to see these three users in a tree, similar to how Project Deliverables or Project/sub project works with the expandable navigator.Are there future plans to enhance the Team functionality to include a screen like this?

Hi,We are currently exploring a solution for one of our clients in the Defense sector.They aim to secure their Sensitive Data on IFS Cloud while ensuring compliance with ITAR regulations, especially in terms of Data display and access (e.g., Parts, Suppliers, etc.).Do we have an integrated solution in IFS to manage Sensitive Data and ITAR requirements, or do we have any references or documentation on how we can address this type of issue? Thanks in advance!

If not, is there any alternative solution to achieve this functionality?Below are screenshots of the product detail screen and customer screen for reference.Thanks in advance for your help!

How do I add a Attachments column like in the page below to a Supplier Invoices in IFS Cloud. 

I created an event action to trigger after the final PO authorization step is completed. The event action should update the Purchase Order state from Planned to Released using Purchase_Order_API.Release_Order. The API is called but it  does not update the status. However I am able to get the PO status to update to Released if I revoke the Authorization step. Is there something blocking the PO to be Released when the final step is Authorized?

IFS is unusually slow, to the point you can no longer use lobby elements or perform simple query's. For instance the same query/lobby takes less than 5 seconds on Production and on the Satellite its takes up to 5 minutes. The database ran the Query in a couple of milliseconds.Some further information:1. No network issues, there server runs on a local network onboard.2. slowness it experienced everywhere in the APP particularly Active Work Orders and Measurement Registration when loading records greater than 100 lines.3. I am performing simple query's such as select MCH_CODE, PARAMETER_CODE, TEST_PNT_SEQ from EQUIPMENT_OBJECT_NEW where MCH_CODE like '3111%' and PARAMETER_CODE = 'ALARM' 4. The environment was restarted last Friday however no changes were made5. This issue was noticed last week6. There is very low resource usage in the MWS i.e CPU less than 5%We refreshed the Server yesterday as well as cleared the dictionary cache. Anyone have similar issues or have any solutions? Many t

There are a few scenarios where we would want to schedule a workflow to run periodically.One in particular - Where the users have an LTU, they cannot do much with a workflow due to the limitations on the permission set.  The workaround i have to use is to “schedule the BPA”, so that it runs as a different user with high privileges.  As long as we have the LTU concept, we are going to have to do this to solve customer requirements.So, it would be good to have a proper approach to support scheduling a BPA.  Currently we have to mess around setting up a dummy migration job so that we can use the job scheduler there.  This is confusing to customers, looks pretty unprofessional and introduces a lot of baggage such as the need to import/export migration jobs.It would be quite straightforward to enable scheduling a BPA via Scheduled tasks.  The method bpa_sys.register_async_bpa would work fine, but is not considered “schedulable” because the package ends in _sys, not _api.  So it is not possi

Hello Everyone,I have added many custom actions to projections without any problem.  However, I have this one now that will not populate the parameters that are in the PLSQL.  What is really weird is that in the API Explorer it recognizes the parameters.  Has anyone seeing something like this and know how to resolve this?I am getting this when I try to call the REST Service as labeled in the API Explorer, passing the parameter, and I can only think it is because the parameter isn’t showing up in the Projection. "error": {        "code": "DATABASE_ERROR",        "message": "Database error occurred. Contact administrator.",        "details": [            {                "code": 6550,                "message": "ORA-06550: line 2, column 2:"            }        ]    } Appreciate anyone who may have an insight as to what may cause the parameter to not be showing up. Thanks,Derek Hansen
