Hello, Our customer has following scenario:Some technicians have different regular duties (e.g. office work) during their normal day, and they should be seen as absent in PSO. In this case, the easiest way to build this in the system would be to create miscellaneous resource allocations as recurring. For example, technician X is absent each Monday morning from 8 to 12.Does anyone know if this will be available in the near future?Thank you very much. Best regards,Iulia

I'm doing a feasibility on following integration modification on APP09. We need to get currency rates from an extremal API and update the currency rates in IFS app09 IEE via a scheduled outbound. This is the POSTMAN tool example for the end pint request We need to pass the API Key and Base Currency as query parameters. I found that this cannot be done using Plsqlap_Server_API.Invoke_Outbound_Request_BizAPI in App09. In App10, we have Plsql_Rest_Sender_API which allows us to pass query parameters.Could you please let me know if there are any other ways to achieve this in App09, or if it is possible using Plsqlap_Server_API?

After entering value of PrePosting in Purchase Requisition line (for a non-inventory part) and Purchase Order Line which is generated from purchase order, only M91 transaction does not have a value entered in Pre-Posting. But M92 is having this option. When we check the basic data setup it shows as follows: However customer is having following business requitement. Customer implementing a project in the company whereby the enterprise site 1 is being split operationally.Work tasks and purchase orders are still raised under enterprise site 2, but at a pre postings level customer will have different values to represent the two separate entities within.Subsequently on the pre postings the code part b (site) value will contain site 1 or site 2 values which are copied across from the work task to the purchase order lines.M92 is correctly pulling the pre posting site value from the PO receipts; however there is a disconnect with M91 since this is not using the same value and instead is usin
Hi All,In IFS, we have the standard functionality to email purchase orders (POs) directly to suppliers.However, I am considering a scenario where the supplier’s contact person may be on leave and has an “Out of Office” automatic reply set up in Outlook. Is there a way to handle such automatic replies or bounce-back messages from the IFS mail server side?Anything that we can do from IFS side?Thanks,Chamath
Hi,Please help me figure out why the EBITDA lobby element needs a workflow.The requirement is to activate the EBITDA standard lobby element in the Finance KPI section. Therefore, I’ve set up the Accounts in the EBITDS Accounting Structure. Nothing works. While the lobby captures manual entries, I believe there should be a way to streamline this process since it is a standard lobby element.Where might I be going wrong?
Hi,I am finding when trying to rollback a schedule it can fail. In the example below I am trying to get 29th Apr (yesterday), but the Schedule Time comes up for May last year. I am finding sometimes the roll back works fine. In other times I shows me a date from a year ago, but the data in PSO for the plans are as if they’re live. Any ideas on this, or what to looks at in the events? Ady
Hi everyone,I'm working with the perform_hierarchy_select endpoint in the FSM OData API and trying to limit the number of records returned. This is the code I’m trying to use: { "parameters": { "query": { "hierarchy_select": { "attrs": { "attr": [ "task.task_id", "task.task_status" ] }, "primary_table": "task", "from": { "table": ["task"] }, "max_rows": 15 } } }}
Hello everyone,We've noticed some recent changes in the release communication format for the new 25 Release. Specifically: The posts no longer include a brief summary of the attached documents, which was very helpful in the past. The presentation format seems different and not as detailed or aligned with the previous structure. We are also missing the “IFS Cloud 25R1 - What's New in Cloud Platform and Tools” and “IFS Cloud 24R2 - What's New Summary” post, which were typically available. Additionally: There's no mention of the OAuth token timeout change to 3 minutes, which is important for integration purposes. If I'm not mistaken, 25R1 introduced the ability to cancel an already posted invoice, but I haven't found any official documentation on this feature yet. Could someone from @IFS RD Product Management , or anyone else ( @Patricia Baagø Ishøj @Bob Corrigan @Nishantha Anuruddha ), please confirm where we can find the relevant documentation or updates?Thank you in advance

We are going to be switching over to the cloud and we have a few implementations that we are going to try to get inside IFS using the Developer Studio. I have been testing a few different things out to get a better understanding on everything.I am having an issue with a command. In my first case, if I Override the page, add a command group and command it will display on the for Form. In my second attempt, I am just trying to get the command to display in the Commands list so I can add it via the Page Designer without overriding the page. But this command does not show up in the list of commands. Am I missing something here? Can it only be done the first way that I mentioned? Appreciate any insight anyone may be able to give. I am testing on 24R1. Thanks
This is a functionality that looks like it’s been degraded in cloud and that is the ability to select multiple items from the list of values.For example, on NCR’s we have a “Source ID” list. In IEE we could select multiple items in the list by hitting CTRL and clicking the item we wanted to select and IFS would then separate those values with a semi-colon. Now in lists in cloud, when you select an item, it closes the LOV and you are then forced to manually enter the remaining items from memory.Is there anywhere in page designer that I can change this functionality? IEE, selecting multiple by holding CTRL and clicking, then IFS separates each value with a ; and does a search for source ID = INTERNALERROR OR source ID = MRB NCR OR etc.In cloud, hitting the down carrot to see the LOV, it only allows me to select one of the values from the list but I need to be able to select multiple efficiently.

Hello everyone,Our customer would like to carry out vacation, sick leave and tour simulations based on historical data.We have tried to upload the data to WISE using a CSV file. However, no activities are displayed on the map.If we select the option “Use from existing Schedule”, the activities appear as expected.However, since we want to use historical data to simulate a scenario for a whole year in advance, this option is not suitable for us.We have checked the coordinates and they are correct. Does the Activity_Type have to be defined in PSO beforehand or something else? Does anyone have any idea why this might be the case? Thank you!
Hello,I have just consulted the following IFS file, linked to the 25R1 version :25R1 Fixes for Customer Reported Issues.xlsxI found that for one of my cases “CS0332557” the release note is as follows: The CustomerOrderInvHeadEntity.svc and CustomerOrderInvItemEntity.svc entity services were previously unable to expose certain attributes such as Customer Address Name and Debit Invoice ID due to limitations in the overtaken base views. To ensure full attribute availability, customers are now advised to use the projection service CustomerOrderInvoiceHandling.svc, which exposes the relevant data through the CustomerOrderInvHeadSet projection. As part of ongoing improvements, the usage of the CustomerOrderInvHeadEntity.svc entity service is planned to be phased out in future releases. Until now, IFS teams have always recommended us to use Entity APIs rather than Handling APIs, and this comment seems to reverse the trend.FYI We've already encountered multiple “Entity” APIs that were unstable
OverviewIn some cases, user accounts may remain in an "Active" status even after their configured "Valid To" date has passed. This behavior can lead to access control issues if not addressed properly. CauseThis issue typically occurs when the database task Validate Timespan For Users has not been scheduled during the system configuration. This task is responsible for handling the activation and deactivation of users based on their validity periods. ResolutionTo ensure users are activated and deactivated according to their validity periods, schedule the database task: Validate Timespan For Users.
Hello, I am doing a few quick reports and what would help me is a full list of the available out the box functions within IFS. At present i am using joins, but have noted that there are far easier ways of achieving the same results via functions. I have seen and made use of the following in some of my Quick reports. ifsapp.Comm_Method_API.Get_Default_Value('PERSON',t.person_id,'PHONE') Personal_Contact_Phone,ifsapp.Comm_Method_API.Get_Default_Value('PERSON',t.person_id,'MOBILE') Mobile_Number,ifsapp.Comm_Method_API.Get_Default_Value('PERSON',t.person_id,'E_MAIL') Personal_Email, Is there somewhere that I can find a comprehensive list of the available functions?Thanks,Noel
Hi AllI have a situation where a POCO revision 0 was created automatically when trying to cancel [through a DR script] the original PO. So far I couldn't recreate it. What I wanted to check through the forum is that, have you encountered this before? With regards to the automatic POCO setup, 1. Site - Enforce POCO is not on2. Supplier - Use the site settingHence in my opinion, a POCO revision shouldn't be automatically created. What do you think? We are running IFS 24.1.9 Thanks,Asela
