You can ask anything you wonder about IFS 10 Lobby. I can answer any questions you may have about IFS 10 LOBBY. Element design, data design, where patterns, references, page creation, authorization, etc. I would be happy to help.

In Element Designer in EE 10 is it possible to click on the coloured area of a pie chart in a lobby, capture the value it contains, pass it to another element (specifically a list element) and populate that list with columns based on that value?
My pie chart contains a breakdown of Vehicle Fixed Assets by Division (see second image below). E.g. there are 29 Vehicles in Divison SR (Service & Repairs).
I want to click on that area of the pie chart (orange colour),capture "SR" and go to a list that displays all 29 vehicles with columns such as Make,model,type etc.
I want the list element to look like the first image but with more columns.
Any replies would be appreciated.

Can we find / define the Help Text from the Lobbies somehere?

 

 

Hi Anna,

You can change the Help text in a Lobby element designer, descriptive text box. I am not sure if this function is available in IFS Aurena?

@ADNAN we have a lobby element that is working in both our TEST and DEV environment but is not working in our production environment in Aurena apps 10 upd 18. The error that we’re getting running a debug window says “Error - unable to initialize lobby element” 400 bad request. Do you have any idea why an element would work in our test and dev environments but not production? They are exactly the same. I exported the lobby element and data source from test to prod and it still isn’t working. Any tips would be appreciated.

Hi, 

Hope you are doing good.

Question here. How the lobby page could be used with custom menu?

 

Thank you.

Custom Menu Action Type  : URL

Parameters should be added as LOBBY_PARAM={&COLUMN_NAME}

Eg:

ifswin:Ifs.Fnd.CompositePageRenderer.PageContainer?page_id=2bc398c2-9330-498e-9642-223a0e26a866&CONTRACT={&CONTRACT}&MAINT_ORG={&ORG_CODE}&COST_CENTER={&COST_CENTER}&OP_STATUS={&OP_STATUS_ID}

 

This only works for form windows or for one record in a table window.

If there is a way to pass multiple values (ie: by selecting multiple rows on a table window) please let us know. Thanks!

Does anyone know if you can have an element line graph with 2 y-axis values. 

Looking to compare say 2022 data with 2023. This would be in one Data Source with the Date held in a column.

Ignore this - I added a year-period value to my data-set. 

Seems to do everything I want!

Hi @ADNAN 

Why sometimes the count number is not showing in an element list? Meanwhile the link is active on the text. It is the same on EE and aurenaV10.

Hi,

Is it possible to change the colour of the bars of a ‘Bar chart’? 

The text colour and background colour can be changed. But couldn’t find any option to change the colours of the bars.

 

Thanks.

Hello All!

Why some counting numbers are showing on IEE but not on AURENA? It doesn’t happen on all AURENA servers but only some of them.

Thank for your help

I have a question regarding order by clause pass-through. In Apps9, when setting up a “counter” lobby element, it is possible to pass-through the where clause and order by of the data source element for navigation. That way, if a counter counts the number of requisition by a specific person, it is possible to click the element and list the requisitions from this person ordered by date.


However, it does not appear to be possible when navigating from a link list element, where only the data source condition (where) can be passed.
Is this something that IFS has implemented in future versions like 10, or cloud? or is the option available elsewhere?

We have the due date and payment date in a query builder for some invoices. Is there a way to add a calculated field to show the number of days difference between the due date and payment date so we can present it on a graph in a lobby?

Hi @XitSakunE ,

 

Within Aurena interface if you navigate to the Document Management → My Documents screen IFS will display the lobby you are asking about within Aurena.  In IEE the Document Management lobby is now connected to the My Documents screen so it automatically is displayed.

William Klotz

Thank you so much William for the support!

How do I lock lobbies down so people can’t edit them? I don’t mean “personalization mode”, which lets users modify a lobby to suit their taste. On the attachment, it’s the icon with the person and a small lock. I mean config mode, the icon that’s just a lock. I’ve looked through all the documentation and all it talks about regarding security on lobbies is how to give rights to the various elements on a lobby. I know how to do that. I cannot figure out how to prevent users from editing them in config mode.

Hi Adnan,

 

Is it possible to create a calculation of  two or more fields in the lobby?

 

For instance :  Inventory value (1) ,    open supplier orders (2) ,  total  inventory exposure (1+2)

 

Thanks.

Hello, 
I have a few questions regarding the lobby : 
1. I want to create a DataSource that will get me the name of all the customers and their last order number.
Since we will have to make a join, is it possible to do this with the "Query Builder"? Or do I have to go through the creation of an IAL?

2. I have created a "PIE CHART" element that groups customers by country: 


Under IEE, when I click for example on "FRANCE". I am redirected to the "Client" screen and the list of French clients is displayed. This is possible thanks to the "Use data source condition" box.
On the other hand, for Aurena, even if I check this box and I fill the field "Web access URL Address" in this way : 


I get this error: 


What do I have to do for the redirection to work in Aurena?

Thanks in advance !

Hello,

 

option to add ‘Element’ is not visible.  Please see below as highlighted.

 

 

Hi @VIKASBISA , Try to drag and drop the selected element in to your lobby page area.
