Meaning of ”The resource aaa has no capacity calculated for the activity period.”

Question customer raisedWhen entering or updating Resources in a Project Activity, it will often show a message such as:”The resource xxx has no capacity calculated for the activity period.”Clicking ‘Yes’ will add the record as expected, so not stopping functionality. Why this message appears?

Person ID/User ID

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

Lesson Learned: How to avoid ORA-04068: "existing state of packages has been discarded"

Constantly changing business requirements put pressure on IT teams to change code frequently. In today’s globally integrated environments, however, the idea of a quiet maintenance downtime period is becoming obsolete. Thus, it’s necessary to be able to make changes on a hot running system. Everything I've read about avoiding ORA-04068 says to not use package globals. However, IFS requires module_ and lu_name_, so how can we get around this? The source code for DICTIONARY_SYS reads the values of these globals right from the source code. The globals have to be on lines 2 through 6, but nothing says they can't be commented out! Here is a demonstration of this trick at work. Package "one" uses globals, and package "two" uses fake globals inside a comment. Both get picked up in the sweep for the dictionary cache, but only package "one" gets invalidated on a second run. With package globals:CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE c_test_one_api AUTHID DEFINER ISmodule_ CONSTANT VARCHAR2(25) := 'FNDBAS';l

Is it possible to pay a Supplier Invoice in a different currency than Invoice Currency?

Hi all, Has anyone ever tried to pay a Supplier Invoice in a different currency than the Invoice Currency?We have received an Invoice in Angolan Kwanza, but we don’t have a Kwanza account. Now the bank is rejecting a fx. trade upon payment. Therefore we got the idea to pay the invoice in USD instead. Anyone knows if this is possible to trigger from IFS?

Scheduled execution of a custom script

There were several posts regarding the requirement of schedule execution of a custom script in IFS. There could be several ways of doing this and this topic explains how to build a common solution using Events and Scheduled Tasks.IFS has two event types, Application Defined and Custom defined. Custom defined events are based on triggers and can be created from IFS Solution Manager. Application defined events are created via script and the triggering of the event is done inside the PLSQL logic.  Step1: Create Application Defined Event and actionDeploy following code in database using AppOwner. Check the attachment for detailed script.BEGIN Event_SYS.Enable_Event('Event', 'C_SEND_DOC_REV', 'Send Document revision', 'DUMMY/STRING^');END; Navigate to the Events and search for the event ID. RMB on the event,  Create new actionChoose the Action Type SQL and write your code to execute on a schedule.  Step 2: Create the Scheduled TaskNavigate to New Database Task w

Inventory Value unit cost

Hello All,We recently had a bunch of turnover in our Accounting department and with that a good portion of IFS knowledge went out the door :(  Anyway, all our parts have the following set-up on the inventory part record:   What we are trying to understand is how does the Unit Cost on the Inventory Value tab on the Inventory record gets updated?  We have lots of parts (both purchased and manufactured) that have estimated material costs as well as  (latest purchase price or average purchase-if purchased) whereby the Unit cost = 0.00.  Example:  Is there IFS jobs or processes that need to be executed to have this value updated?  Basically, how does the inventory values get maintained in the system?  Thanks, Mark

Conditional Formatting Question

Hello,I am looking for a way to create conditional formatting for the available Qty column within Customer Order Lines. I am looking to have the cell highlight green if the value is greater than the Sales Qty (BUY_QTY_DUE). I am trying to put in the below formula, but it doesn’t look like conditional formatting has the ability to compare the value against a different column value. Is that accurate, or is there a way to accomplish this that I am missing?  Thank you,Matt

Why use Oracle multitenant database instead of single instance database

Hi   IFS seems to recommend use of multitenant database (container database + pluggable database) when installing IFS10 (at least that setup is described in help files) but since only one PDB per CDB is supported I can not really see any advantage of using multitenant setup. So, why use multitenant database (instead of single instance)? Neno Solaja

Reconciling Received Not Invoiced Report to GL

Hi Guys, I having a trouble with reconciling  Received Not Invoiced Report to GL. Does any of you know exactly which Posting Types should be considered  when matching Received Not Invoiced Report. With some investigation I understand that M10, M14 and M18 should be considered. There are other types of postings like M189 and M196 posted to similar account. But I do not see these amounts related to Arrival charges in Received Not Invoiced Report.   Thanks

The system is erroneously using Standard Cost instead of Cost from Labor Class

One of the customers am working with have observed the following. Would request your assistance to help solve this issue. [b]Note the customer is running application 9.[/b] The system is retrieving costs erroneously from Standard Costing for Employee Category when it should be using costs from the labor class. [b][i]Flow to re-create the issue:[/i][/b] 1. Have labor class set up for both run time and overhead costs. 2. Have employee set up for Employee Category General. 3. Have Standard Costs set for Employee Category General different than labor class so you can be sure what the system is doing. 4. Make sure that Company Details for Company i.e X are not checked to use Employee Costs. (This would be the signal to use Standard Cost) 5. Make sure that Site is not Checked for Override Employee Costs This determines which labor class costs the system should use. 6. Then report time for employee 1063 who is in employee category General. 7. Check the
