@anjana.pat This is a functionality that we are yet to implement in projection configurations. To have more clarity in this area, we have included this fact in technical documentation under: Tailoring Guide > Configuration > Configuration References > Known Limitations.The feature is already in our road map, but as of now, we have not planned this for any recent upcoming releases due to other priorities.However, if your requirement here is only to view data (but no CUD), you can achieve it by creating a Query using Query Designer using the standard entity by including the required custom attributes (Technical documentation: Tailoring Guide > Configuration > Query Designer) & including the Query in your projection using a projection configuration.Hope this helps!
@ChanakaAmarasekara Custom Fields usage in Operational reports.
@Priyanka Cecilia V “If we add a new Field Set from a query with multiple entities, can we still trigger a Custom Event based on this field set when a value changes?” - As I mentioned above, the entity set is read only, so you won’t be able change data from that tab, meaning, you won’t be able trigger the custom event from there.“If we add a new Field Set from a query with multiple entities, can we still trigger a Custom Event based on this field set when a value changes?” - Yes, it is. If it is not yet done, perhaps it would be good to have a discussion with the product team who owns JtExecutionInstance on why it is not supporting custom fields.
@Priyanka Cecilia V If your requirement is only to display i.e. read only (I guess it's not here), you can create a Query (Query Designer) joining multiple entities & use an entity set based on that Query here in the tab as the source; another option is, you may use read only type custom attributes for this purpose. However, if the requirement is to perform CUD as well, then having a list for CUD on multiple entities is not supported.
@Priyanka Cecilia V Did you check whether the WorkTaskHandling API new endpoints (created for the reference) are working correctly? You can check the URL with the API Doc (API Explorer). (Additionally, you can test using a tool like Postman mainly for CUD). It is always useful to get confirmed whether the API endpoints are working before using them in IFS Cloud client.
@Priyanka Cecilia V In this expression, we do not support using columns of the entity. PL/SQL functions without any parameters or passing any fixed values as parameters are supported here. Or we support expressions here that can be independently evaluated.There could be a possibility of achieving this functionality through custom events using Workflow type event actions. Perhaps defining the custom event on the base table & setting up the desired value to custom attribute using a workflow? @Lahirumala de Mel is this something possible to achieve through workflows?
@ALHAGMO In IFS Applications 10, in the area of Enterprise Application Search, there are number of search domains available which have been released with the core application. To use them while searching, in other words, if you want to perform a search in that particular functional area which the search domain is build (for instance Inventory Parts here), that particular search domain needs to be in enabled state.Yes, you can activate a search domain using the way you have mentioned above. Please note that this operation, which creates the text index from the scratch as well if it is not already there, is usually a heavy operation (again depending on the number of records in the relevant base tables). The operation can cause DML operations blocking on the base table of the search domain during the time of its execution; hence it is advised to schedule this actualization operation in a suitable time window which non-business critical for that functional area.
I doubt we can do this kind of a thing through a configuration.@tofuse do you have an idea?
@gumabsEven though there is business logic to support alternative key functionality, still there is no client-side support already available in entity configurations in core application (which is planned to deliver in 23R2 release as of now).However, in existing IFS Cloud support tracks, as a workaround, you can add alternative key field from page designer into list in Custom Attributes page, set the alternative key for the relevant custom attributes & then you can sync the custom entities to have alternative keys defined.
@gumabs What do you really mean by the key here?If it is the primary key, for Custom Entities, it is always ROWKEY which is system generated.If it is alternative keys, then you can set alternative key if you want to enforce unique constraint on selected column(s).
As far as I know, when adding a page configuration belong to a certain context to an ACP, all page configurations related to same model (page) which is set under different contexts would be included into that ACP. @tofuse Please confirm.
@Tech Phil If remember correctly, I focused only the configuration injected metadata for the projection, where we have seen no issues there.
@mikeallens Need more clarity on your point 2 & 3 2. Are you referring to clients (built on IFS Rest API suite) other than the main client (Aurena), which are inclusive in the Core application?3. Is your question about the availability of some platform such as an app store similar to Google Play Store?
We have a backlog item for this which will be implemented in a future feature update.
The projection metadata (both client & Server) are generated in the same way for both attributes.E.g.Entity: CustomerOrder in CustomerOrderHandling APIStandard attribute: WantedDeliveryDateCustomAttribute: Cf_Naba_Date_Test) Entity attribute Client Metadata for CustomerOrderHandling Entity attribute Server Metadata for CustomerOrderHandling In addition, I don’t see any different in server response formatting for Get/GetByKey endpoints of CustomerOrderSet entity set Hence, the difference seems due to some different handling somewhere within Client FW.@tofuse @LakmaliRD any input here?

@chajash Could you please mention the exact steps you followed here?
@mdeanton There is no way you can define new system parameters as a configuration, but you can define them as a customization. Once added, it will be available in FndSetting.When it comes to its usage in event action, I can see two easy ways to do that (of course there could be even many).In Custom Event, define a new custom attribute which fetches the new system parameter value from FndSetting using PLSQL (Documentation: Manage Event Actions - Technical Documentation For IFS Cloud) If the event action is an execute online SQL type action, then fetch the value of the system parameter again from FndSetting from that PLSQL block.
As I far as I know, In IFS Cloud versions, Page Designer is not designed to construct such a complex structured parameter value passed to a custom action.@LakmaliRD who owns the page designer concept, to confirm.
@ShawnBerk , RnD has always been counting on the feedback we receive for numerous usage patterns by our valuable customer, while developing new platforms / features. As Rifki also mentioned (& you also may agree), having complex configurations specially with direct SQL, was one of the major barriers when it comes to upgrades, causing de-satisfaction among customers. The vision even from Darren & Christian is to have more greener upgrade process in IFS Cloud which benefits in most areas, setting up a win-win situation for both customers as well as IFS.In order to avoid having complex configurations in direct SQL in different concept areas, in addition to Query Designer, you can use concepts such as BPA Workflows. For others, of course extend on inside would be the much better solution.
@HumbertoFloresD Can you elaborate above step 6 (exact steps you followed add the tab ) & step 7 (in which section of the page you do the changes & type of the change (insert/update/delete) you followed.
Currently there is no functionality to define a filter in Custom entities. We have this in our roadmap, which we expect to deliver in a future release.I’m not the expert in Site security, however in this particular scenario, hope you have defined the custom field by referencing the site either using a public get method of one of the Site related APIs or as a SELECT statement. If the site security had been properly available in get method/view used in SELECT, that Row Level Security should be applicable. You should not see any records in site that you are not allowed to. There is nothing to do with such RLS from custom framework. So please make sure those get methods / views contain Site security conditions as expected.
Hi @roshanga ‘IN’ operation in filters was not supported in IFS Cloud 21R2 but it is now available in 22R1 via Advanced Filter Panel. Key in the values at the above highlighted (green) value textbox & hit enter.https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/22r1/040_tailoring/225_configuration/950_query_designer/100_query_capabilities/#filters
