Categorization of Business reports

Hi when publishing Business Reports in to IFS Cloud there is no possibility to categorize the reports.I would like to have the possibility to at least set the Domain or Category.Is it possible somehow to amend the list of Domains and Categories in the Order Report program?

Business Reporter -Using wildcard in a report parrameter

Has anyone come across a way of using a wildcard (‘%’ OR ‘*’) in the report Parameters so the user can select all without having to type the individual values?  They may need to run the report with one value in the parameter or  with no filter so it gets everything pulling through. Any advice is appreciated. Cheers

Business Reporter for IFS Cloud issue referencing different sheets

Hi,We are upgrading to IFS Cloud 23R2 and have an issue with Business Reporter reports that were written in IFS Apps 10.We have tested in the BR client versions 23.2.0, 23.2.1 and 23.2.2 – the issue is present in all of them.Our report developers have used multiple sheets and use many formulas referring to data on other sheets like this example:In the Design view you can see the reference to a sheet within the workbook. When the report is run you can see the sheet names have been stripped out so excel is now referring to cells on the current sheet:  We need this resolving ASAP as our go live approaches.We have raised a ticket but nothing has been done yet. ThanksPaul

BR report does not work when the parameter value is entered manually

Hi,There is a difference in how the BR report is executed when the parameter value in entered manually and selected from LOV. Selecting from LOVTyping manually This happens for both ‘Year’ and ‘Month’. They are of number type. But this is how the queries are formed.using to_char() or to_number() in advanced filter criteria didn’t work. Converting the field in the IAL using to_char() also didn’t work.Is there any other way to resolve this? Best Regards,Nisansala

Auto Enabling Macros on Business Reporter reports

Hi, We have come across an issue where if we ‘order’ the business reporter report in Excel it errors as it cant find/run the macro.  But if we ‘load’ report, it loads up with the box at the top to enable macros. We click enable, then ‘run’ and the report works fine.  We have always had issues with these reports running out of the IFS application, which is why we use IFS Business Reporter instead. Are you able to assist with this query please? Our company does have a policy where they don’t want users to use macros, but I’m not sure of another way around it so I’m looking for any options. thank you for your time!

IFS Analysis Models - Power BI Sales Parts

Hi,According to the latest IFS GPL and 24R2 sales part list, there are only two Power BI-related sales parts available:Advanced Analytics - Self Managed Analysis Models - Self ManagedI would appreciate more information about the latest sales parts related to IFS Analysis Models (24R2). Could you please provide answers to the following questions?What sales part(s) are needed to use IFS Analysis Models - Power BI with a self-hosted BI infrastructure setup? What sales part(s) are required for using IFS Analysis Models - Power BI (data lake Gen2) and IFS Advanced Analytics? Is it possible to purchase Advanced Analytics - Self Managed without purchasing Analysis Models - Self Managed? Does this mean that iFrame integration is always available and not dependent on any sales part? Can we assume that IFS Analysis Models – Tabular is no longer available for purchase?Thank you.

Enabling Context Substitution Variables on QIS parameters

Hi,when using a standard dimension/fact item as a report parameter, relevant context substitution variables will be visible to choose as the default value.However, when a QIS is created based on an IAL, this is not possible. Here, the DIM_COMPANY dimensions was connected to the QIS from custom dimension connections oage.  Is this a framework limitation? Is there any setting or workaround to achieve this behavior? Best Regards,Nisansala

FACT_GL_TRANSACTION Incremental Loading

Hello,I'm trying to enable incremental refresh for FACT_GL_TRANSACTION, but I need to complete the initial refresh first. The dataset is quite large—refreshing accounting year (a full refresh using a criteria) 2024 alone takes around 15 hours. However, I'm unable to refresh the entire dataset. Once 2024 is fully refreshed the entity info says its no FRESH, attempting to refresh 2023 or any other year with entity criteria does not work. Any idea why?
