Configuration Not Transfering to Incoming Customer Order

Why is there even a checkbox for that, or at least, it should be checked by default for internal customers. Anywho, this helped me!

Help with custom page on IFS Cloud

Is it a detail page or an overview page?In either case, make sure that you have selected Entity and Datasource Entity Set.if it’s an overview page, perhaps the fields are not set to editable?If it’s a detail page, you also need a selector linked to a Datasource and make sure your groups and lists have a Binding to that selector.

Transfer Purchase Transactions - Not Transferring (No errors)

That’s a bit bizarre. I assume the sites are on the same company, correct?If you search Background Jobs for “Transfer of purchase transaction postings %”, do you see any with error for the QLD site?What user are those scheduled tasks and background jobs running as? Maybe that user doesn’t have access to the QLD site?

IFS Event Action - Online SQL Warning

Probably not what you want to hear, but when/if your customer goes to IFS Cloud, you might be able to use a Workflow of type User Interaction.https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/22r2/040_tailoring/500_business_process_automation/020_what_are_workflows/#user-interaction

My ideas why BPA has such a steep learning curve

I agree completely. Graphically designed workflows will always look better on slide shows than in reality, at least as long as you have to put snippets of code behind the workflow nodes. I consider them “obscure code” instead of “low code”. If you could pick the entity properties you want to default or match to another entity for enrichment, then it would be much more accssible to consultants and super users etc., but with simplicity comes limitations in what you can do, of course.At the same time, I would welcome something more robust than the current ‘Execute Online SQL’ event actions, because you can really do some chaotic evil things with those. Perhaps it would be better if they ran under the IFSSYS schema instead if IFSAPP?

Line Break and Spaces at the end of File get removed

G’day! Did you get to the bottom of this? I have a similar problem, but using the File connector, and it seems to strip out line breaks in 22R1.

Custom Attributes

You can definitely configure selects and function calls.The “Local” type attribute is not avaiable in IFS Cloud, but I think that was rarely used anyway. I avoided them because they could not be added to ACPs.

Custom Attributes

In theory, custom fields in IFS Applications and custom attributes in IFS Cloud should be the same. The metadata is upgraded auto-magically and you’ll see the CF$_ columns in the _CFV views etc. Of course, you have to redo the screen placement using the Page Designer.Once you’ve found that the Entity Configuration page replaces the Custom Fields and Custom Logical Unit screens, you should be good.As often, the devil is in the detail though. With the absence of the System Info panel in IFS Enterprise Explorer, which showed database views and columns behind IEE forms, and the PL/SQL Package Code screen to find method signatures, it’ll be technically more challenging to work out the correct (PL/)SQL for Select Statement and Expression type fields. Having development access to a build place, so you can trawl through database objects and test SQL statements using IFS Developer Studio is probably essential. Without a SQL Query Tool in IFS Aurena, I’ve taken to trying out statements using a d

IFS Connect thinks text/xml response is binary

Thanks Damith. I think I need to explore the Workflow option.

IFS Connect thinks text/xml response is binary

Yeah, I think it’s because I’m using the REST sender that IFS Connect doesn’t understand that it’s getting a response back.I’m trying to automate fetching of currency rates from an RSS feed on the Internet. First step is a schedule migration job where I use an event action to create an outbound application message. It’s just a dummy message to invoke a GET using the REST connector. I then want to capture the response, transform it, and pass it to the standard projection for receiving currencyt rates in IFS Cloud. My routing rule below:The error I’m getting is: Error while preparing input data. Caused by: ifs.fnd.base.SystemException: Attempt to use an XSL transformer (C_RBA_RSS_TO_IFS_CURR_RATE) on binary dataI can download the response though, and have verified by opening in Notepad++ that I’m getting the expected XML and that the encoding is UTF-8.Currently, my XSL transformer is on the 2nd address in the link, but I’ve tried putting it as response transformer on my 1st address.On IF

Whoops, did a typo there. The service (actually an RSS feed) returns Content-Type: text/xml in the response.I tried passing Accept: application/xml in the request, but it still returns Content-Type: text/xml in the response.Still, that is XML, but IFS Connect just doesn’t understand that.

It returns Accept: text/xml even if I pass application/xml in the request. Still XML, but nonetheless, can IFS Connect be confused by that?I also tried to pass Accept-Encoding: "" to make sure I don’t get a compressed response, but that made no difference.I have also tried a Java transformer, but get the same error.FYI, on IFS Applications 10 I used a work-around by saving the response to a file using path %FILE_OUT%\..\in, so that the IFS Connect default file reader would pull it right back in again, and then I could apply my transformer. On IFS Cloud I need server access to set up absolte file paths though, so I’d rather not work with files.

IFS Cloud - XSL XML to Text transformer

Could it have to do with the encoding on the file reader? It seems FILE_READER1 has ISO-8859-1 as default encoding.
