I meant to add that we are using IFS E. Explorer, Apps 10 on an in house system.
Hi, it was never resolved, I guess that is just a limit in the code for this function. The person who was being sent the search just created their own with the information from the person who was trying to send it to them.
Never mind, clearing my browser cache was not enough, had to completely restart my PC, now it is working normally again, and I can see and report cases. Very strange.
We have come across the same issue, and are testing the workaround you have used, so thanks for that. Did this get reported to IFS as a support case already, and if so, have they provided a patch for this, or do we need to open a support case for this, if this was not already done?Thanks,Justin
Never mind, my request for access to the Portal went through and was granted, so this is resolved.
Update - I have just found out that the Part No. field in this search has a string of parts 22,870 characters long. While the search does work for the user who created it, it is the sending that fails with the error msg given above. does anyone know the max length of search strings in a saved search that will allow it to be sent to someone else without error?
Thanks very much for your reply, I will check all these details out.
Thanks for your reply, so it seems IFS does not have an option to override this setting then. I will ensure I use Save As in Excel in future, as I lost some work a while back just using the Save button, and could not longer find the file the next day, which you have explained the reason for!
Hi R Lum Wai,I am looking at how we can allow new managers to see previous expenses of employees who have moved to their supervision, and I saw your reply to my post about this. In which screen or screens should the manual trans dates be set to the range you suggest to allow this please?Thanks
Hi, thanks very much for that, I have tried using a text editor, and can see the information is provided.If anyone from IFS is looking at this, is there a reason why there is an Export option, but no Import option for someone else to receive the xml file and read it in their debugger, where it is in a better format than an xml text file?
Thanks for clarifying, all is clear.
So you mean choose Generate in the header of that screen, so it runs for everyone? Sorry this is quite new to me.
Sorry, one more thing, regarding regenerating the position access, do you mean to right click and generate on the row of the person being moved in this screen? Thanks
Thanks very much for your help, changing the user date in the header worked perfectly, appreciate the assistance.
Hi, so what happened was, the employee changed positions in Aug 2022, and the employee file was correct, but she was still under her previous manager in the graphic postion screen, ( and other position and manager related screens) for some reason this was never updated. So we were told to simply drag and drop her details in the g. pos. screen to the correct manager, which has been done, but now the position history details related the date her entry was moved to the correct manager, and we cannot correct those dates in the position history tab to the correct ones instead of yesterdays date when her position was corrected. I hope this is clear. So if the employee file was already correct, with right cost centre and manager for the new role, why hadnt any of the other screens updated to reflect this? In another query about this type of thing I posted in this community, I was told we should just move them in the graphic position screen with drag and drop, so I am now confused. I do not kn
Hi, thanks for your reply, the header has a very old start date and one a long way into the future. And the General tab for the person in question also has the same:But it will not let me adjust the valid dates in the Position History to the correct ones, it should show her old role ending in 22/08/22 and the new one starting on Aug 23. so her valid dates in this screen do not match what she has in the employee file (which are correct) - is that by design or a bug?
Thanks, I will try that
That was the missing piece! Thanks very much, I was hunting all over IFS for something like this. I am now able to correct all the Assignment dates.
I had exactly the same issue today, and your solution worked. Thanks for posting that solution.
Thanks, that is a big help and resolved my issue.
