Hi ,
you can see all tables with this query.
select * from All_all_tables
Hi
All the database objects related to IFS Applications are deployed as the Application Owner user(usually ‘IFSAPP’). So you can use the following queries to fetch the tables and views.
Objects related to Information Access Layer are deployed under IFSINFO user, so you can change the owner in above queries to retrieve those.
Hope this helps!
List of tables and views can be viewed by querying DBA_VIEWS and DBA_TABLES.
SELECT * FROM DBA_VIEWS WHERE owner IN (‘IFSAPP’,’IFSINFO’);
SELECT * FROM DBA_TABLES WHERE owner IN (‘IFSAPP’,’IFSINFO’);
The key constraints and the cascade relationship can be viewed by querying CONSTRAINT tables.
SELECT constraint.TABLE_NAME,
constraint.R_CONSTRAINT_NAME,
contraint_column.TABLE_NAME,
contraint_column.COLUMN_NAME
FROM USER_CONSTRAINTS constraint,
USER_CONS_COLUMNS contraint_column
WHERE constraint.R_CONSTRAINT_NAME = contraint_column.CONSTRAINT_NAME
AND constraint.constraint_type = 'R'
ORDER BY constraint.TABLE_NAME,
constraint.R_CONSTRAINT_NAME,
contraint_column.TABLE_NAME,
contraint_column.COLUMN_NAME;
There is no foreign keys in IFS. Relationship is based on entries from reference_sys_tab which are comming from view columns comments. One exception is ROWKEY colum when You define custom objects.
Hi Mustapha,
wellcome to my world! :-)
The list of available tables and views are easily fetched with the sql commands mentioned above.
I would like to recommend to start your own “data dictionary” (DD) with analyzed objects and the use of them in IFS masks and processes.
We did a lot of Powerpoint documentation work but know we just add the IFS Screenshots in our own DDs.
We did a lot of “field work” and connected hundreds of tables/views within a datawarehouse on MS SQL Server. Some connections are very simple, some highly sophisticated.
Just give me a call (teams) or a mail. We would be glad to share our knowledge.
Good luck with your work.
Regards
Michael
Hello, Michael, can you share your excel workbook with me so that I can list the tables to be used
Thanks
Bon jour fdieud,
which part of IFS you are expecially interested in?
Sales, purchase, finance, manufacturing, quality management, HR, logistics?
We can give you a list of tables from each “module” to start with.
Just mention the “module-name”.
Sharing the excel-workbook isn’t that easy because of customer related data in it.
But it should be very easy to create a datadictionary (e.g. sales or purchase) for your company within hours.
All the best
Michael

If you want to do some “research” by yourself:
1. Start with SystemInfo in the IFS Mask.
2. mark one field in the mask. Look for Viewname on the left side of SystemInfo.
3. Be aware: mark field in header will result in other View-Names than mark field in Lines.
4. Do a check in ORACLE Tool. Look for View-Name.
5. Analyze ORACLE View Definition. (You can do this with different tools)
6. Note the underlying tables, the view is using.
7. Note the API-functions.
Some of them are easily “rebuild” by joins others are not that easy.
8. Especially check the Join-criteria in the IFS View.
But, if you look especially for the Currency - field. This is simple: INVOICE_TAB.CURRENCY
Try select distinct currency from invoice_tab
I’m not shure because my customer doesn’t use project invoices.
I recommend to “select distinct rowtype from invoice_tab”
If there is a rowtype “ProjectInvoice” just use this as a filter.
We learned that a lot (Or all of them? I’m not quite shure at the moment!)
of invoices (purchase invoices as well) are stored in the INVOICE_TAB and are just filtered for the specific mask.
Hope this helps.
All the best
Michael
Hi i’m not an administrator so i havent accès to Oracle Tools
Can you tel me why that requiest responde bad index column
Im using a Excel sync in VBA language
"SELECT * FROM APP_FOR_PAYMENT WHERE PROJECT_ID = '" & id_project
Hi fdieud,
can you use the SQL within IFS?
When you tell me, you use Excel for creating SQL syntax, than there must be some “link” to ORACLE.
I just checked APP_FOR% within Views and Tables in the IFS database.
Couldn’t find any object.
Please try SELECT * FROM APP_FOR_PAYMENT first.
My guess:
You need a closing ‘ !!!
So add & “’” : this is one ‘ marked by two “ as a text field.
I would try:
"SELECT * FROM APP_FOR_PAYMENT WHERE PROJECT_ID = '" & id_project & “ ‘ “
Without the blanks I just added that you can see the single ‘.
There is no blank between your first ‘
= '"
and the “!
All the best.

Hello, Michael,
can you please share your excel workbook with me so that I can list the tables to be used.
I am for now mostly interested in Sales & Purchase.
Kind regards,
Arjen
Hi Arjen,
I would like to share the datadictinary with you but there are some customer related data in it.
So it is not possible to just copy & paste it.
The effort of stripping or masking personal data is much higher than creating a new datadictionary
from the scratch on base of your IFS system.
But I can share the list of tables we used in the purchase area.
Kind regards
Michael
