Hi, I was wondering is someone could guide me in the right direction. We’re looking to set a routine in IFS  that automatically prints order confirmation when a customer order is released. Could anyone please guide me on how to go about setting this up?  Thank you 

Hi, When using Order Report in IFS, an Information Message appears with the text: Attempting update for read-only data source. This message appears five times, so I need to click five times on OK before I can order a repport. Does anyone know what the trigger for this message is and how I can resolve this?  Kind regards,Simon

Hi,I have a question how to export Business Reporter from Excel To *.ins field?Thanks.

Has anyone attempted to join the gen_led_voucher_row to the actual invoice_items where the Sales Parts reside ? The requirement is to be able to view which GL row has been created by which invoice item row. I can’t find a direct link so it seems we have to go via inv_accounting_row by invoice_id and then to find the rows in invoice_item but then we fail to get a 1-to-1 

I am designing my own Excel Plugin for a report output.  I have it running except I need to run a case sql that will set a field to a certain number when a customer is printed.  Has anyone been able to pass a report parameter to a sql?  [&SELECT CASE WHEN IDENTITY='VICMEO' THEN '0131' ELSE '0000' END FROM CUST_ORDER_INV_HEAD_UIV_ALL WHERE invoice_no='[@REPORT-VALUE{PRE_INVOICE_NO}]'] 

Hi, I am having issues with Query Builder. After entering the Title I am unable to select anything else, there is nothing to select in the Row Type drop-down, please see below:  Any ideas? I am logged in as IFSAPP. 

If I take our order backlog as of tonight at midnight, subtract from that our backlog as of this morning at midnight, then add today's revenue, I will get today's net bookings.Σ Bookings = Δ Backlog + RevenueThis calculation method accurately handles both order line cancellations and intentional shipping differences. Does anyone else here do this?What are you using to get a daily snapshot of your backlog?How are you handling different time zones?Is your solution easy to maintain/change?Is it durable?Is it simple and trustworthy?

Dear All,I can see the background jobs screen in Aurena but if I want to see the detail of a job by selecting it, I am not getting that option. Check attached screenshot. I want to know how can I go to the show details of the job in Aurena.  Thanks in advance! BR,HA

We have a few reports that have recently been crashing displaying OLE error.   After going through each Server Set Id.After recreating the Server Set within a new report to test it.   I found that if I had 12 or less Measure Item columns no error was received and data was output.  Out of the 19 DIM_REPORTING_ENTITY.CODE columns that we had it doesn’t matter which 12 DIM_REPORTING_ENTITY.CODE items used, so long as only 12 columns were used then no error, if 13 or more then report crashes with OLE error. Has anybody come across this, if so, what is the cause? Thanking you.

Hi, I am trying to create a quick report. I want to show the total amount of a purchase order including possible charges on that order, preferably in one column. There is a column ‘Total Gross incl Chrg/Curr’ but this is including tax. I want to show the amount excluding tax. Is there a way to make this happen? Kind regards,Simon 

I like to design a solution of IFS Analysis Model and I have some questions: What is better: to have SQL Server On-Premise or in MS Azure? What do you need into account when MS SQL Server is in Azure? Have we got a list of which PowerBI example dashboards are included in IFS Analysis Model? Have we got a description of the facts and dimensions included in each OLAP cube?

Hi, I have an issue with Business Reporter and data. I created a report which shows the Purchase Order Lines per week. But I only want to show the data from Purchase Orders with status not Planned or Cancelled. I tried to show only the data from Purchase Orders which were autorized, but I was not able to do so because that data is not present in the Information Source. Is there any way to do this?The Information Source which I use is ‘Purchase Order Lines’. We are on APPS10 update 7.  Kind regards,Simon

Had a user run the customer Order cleanup but selected a little too much and from too recent. I wanted to get verification that there wasn’t an easy Undo button for this. Found out this job completed without errors so other than a database restore nothing can undo.

IFSAPPS 9.We have been using a Business Analytics model to run our sales forecast. This was using Business Opportunities as the Information Source.One of the filter criteria was DIM_OPP_PROBABILITY.CODE BETWEEN 50 and 100. This basically captured any high probability Business Opportunities. After we installed UP17 our Business Analytics model stopped working. I believe the issue was that prior to UP17, the field on the Information source was the value in the PROBABILITY_DB field and it has now changed to be just the PROBABILITY field. The issue is that the PROBABILITY field is suffixed by a % sign, so when we use this field in the filter I receive an ‘Invalid Number’ error message. However I have not been able to use SQL in the Filter Criteria to either TRIM or REPLACE the % value out.Is there a way to point the Information Source back to the PROBABILITY_DB field? 

Hallo community,ACTUAL scenario: The user is informed about changes by e-mail. The mail contains a generated link to the relevant IFS mask, which calls up this IFS mask when pressed. This works because it is the standard behaviour for IFS masks (ifsapf:frm ...).TARGET scenario: Now this should also be implemented for the jump from the mail to a lobby. I.e. the user receives a generated link in mail to the lobby, which calls up the respective lobby when pressed. Only in the case of Lobby (ifswin:Ifs.Fnd.CompositePageRenderer.Page...) does it NOT seem to be the default behaviour.How can i do this? Any ideas?Thx for support

Hello, I have been trying to find a way to view all raw material that is used at a given work center. Ideally, I have reviewed material usage, component where used, but there does not appear to be a way to search by Work Center. I am hoping that there is an area within the system where this data can be viewed. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, I’ve created an element for purchase requisition lines awaiting approval and it displays the lines correctly the user needs to authorize.  In Aurena I have it working where you can click on the line and open the purchase requisition screen but I’m running into difficulty with clicking on one of the lines and opening the IEE Purchase Requisition screen so they can look at the entire requisition.  Any guidance would be appreciated. Reqards,William Klotz
