We have several thousan addresses missing zip codes. Is there a way to force the address validation process to add zip code (if there is only 1 match) in silent mode? And ideally using Geocode only if street address is not the same?Using interactive mode is extremely time-consuming

In Apps 9, and Apps 10 we used to have good field level help for the many fields that are used on the Project Peformance Analysis.  It gave the formulas for values like BAWC and the SPI and CPI values (among many others).  Those prized bits of information are not in any of the newer versions, as far as I can tell.I remember material that I wish I’d saved that had a graph of the project costs versus time and it illustrate how the schedule vairance and cost variance cause the IEAC to change.  I’m hoping that someone may have some of this old material and can forward it to me or add it to this topic.Thank you.Patrick

Hi Experts,I'm getting the above error while trying to generate Automatic Supplier Invoice using self-billing feature.  Please advise some solution. 

I’m struggling with getting the Resource Analysis screen to behave.  This is the analysis of my person group.  The capacity starts today, which is the day I’ve run the Refresh Snapshot.(See attachment named Resource Analysis for a Person Group Resource.png. If I look at the Resource Analysis for the individual who is assigned to the Project Manager person group, I get the expected result.(See attachment named Resource Analysis for a Person Resource.png) I have the Resource Analysis Demand Snapshot set to a -30 day start offset and the Resource Schedules and Capacity set to a -100 day start offset.  Automatic Calculation is ON.Might anyone have a clue as to why the snapshot for the person group is different than the snapshot for a person?

Hi Experts, I am reaching out to understand the usage of the mx_u_s table in FSM. We have observed that this table contains a large amount of data in our environment and is consuming significant storage space.Could you please provide some insights on the purpose and importance of this table? Any recommendations on how to manage its size would also be appreciated. Thanks,Hasara

Hi everyone, Once in a while we get this error (Could not load file or assembly, example in image below), where users are not able to enter a menu which they have privilege's for.The solution we have had so far, is to delete the 2.0 folder from the users APPDATA/APPS windows folder, and on reentry to IFS, they are able to access the same menu. The question I would like to ask, is if this is the best possible solution, or if there is another way to understand why this happens and solve it, without the need to delete the 2.0 folder? Thanks in advance!  

We have several profiles in v15 - on one of the (a new one) we are not allowed to move inventiry from bad bin to used bin. I can search for serials in Bad bin, but Astea claims there are 0 available even after I pick one from the list. I assume this is a setup, but I have looked “everywhere” to find this setting

Good afternoon all,  I am after a little help/advise. My company are looking to add the Harmonized System (HS) codes to the inventory Part Record using the Customs Stat No field (unless anyone can advise me differently). We have identified over 100,000 inventory parts tariff codes and I wondered if anyone knows of a way to bulk upload them from an excel spreadsheet? At present the field is blank.  

I have a customer that will only be using FSM Web Client and not FSM Smart Client. They have a requirement to view Escalations assigned to their team. The standard screen ESCALATIONSTEAM would meet the requirement, but I am able to view in Web Client.  Does anyone know if this is by design before I create a custom screen to do almost the same as baseline?

Hello, I have been looking for help on the FIFO picking in IFS (for Customer Orders and Shop Orders). I am looking to confirm that when IFS generates a picklist, that it is directly the associate to the oldest stocking record so that we are using our oldest material and shipping our oldest product. Is there a way to verify this is properly configured in IFS Apps 10? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Hi, In the standard IFS Cloud is there a way to trigger maintenance work (a Work Order may be) automatically when we start a downtime for a Work Center Resource in the Shop Floor Workbench ? Machine operator is starting a downtime due to a fault in the machine. As a result, the maintenance crew needs to be alerted about this (we can use a custom event for that). The important requirement is, that the system to create something like a Work Order automatically in this instance. So, the maintenance crew can record all the required work tasks, task assignments and all of that properly through the system. Using the IFS Cloud version 22R1.

Dear Team!Based on the user creation process in IFS Cloud.Using the standard screen, it is possible to deactive the Create Person option.  For a customer, the users will be created via SCIM.Thus, it is not possible to somehow untick this during creation. Persons should not be created. By default this is set to enabled  There is no System parameter to define this setting. In former IFS Releases, you may skip the Person Details and this resultet in no person being created.Can this be achieved with SCIM as well? If yes, please state how. The information herehttps://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/22r2/030_administration/010_security/025_scim/#scim-attribute-mapping Provides only that there are mapping attributes. But not if they can be skipped to prevent user creation. Kind regards,Tobias

When restoring an Application Server clone to create a new environment using restore_clone -instance=<NewInstance> we often - but not always - run into a timeout that prevents the process from completing cleanly.  Seems to happen around the 1 hour mark. We have removed all of the CPU and RAM load that we can possibly do on the server and the machine is nowhere near fully utilized (only around ~20% on both while the restore is in process) but the issue remains. Does anyone know if it is possible to extend the timeout threshold during the restore process to clone an AS cleanly? This is with Apps10 UPD5. Here's the output from a failed attempt and timeout: C:\IFS\EBUPD5>.\restore_clone -instance=EBUPD5 Dec 13, 2019 3:07:25 PM ifs.application.installer.util.main.CloneMain restoreDomain INFO: Changing instance Dec 13, 2019 3:07:25 PM ifs.application.installer.util.main.CloneMain restoreDomain INFO: Creating MW Home..

Hello IFS Friends, When using Oracle SQL Developer I get a different value for balances of GL accounts vs using the GL Balance Analysis screen in IFS. We’re on IFS 10.11 and I’m using IEE.

We have issues with our “Final Invoice Posting” scheduled database task. Some of the supplier invoices post successfully, and others are skipped and have to be manually posted.We have tried running the Task manually and it always skips the same invoices. When users try to manually change the invoices to Finally Posted, they do not receive any errors. Any ideas why the task would be skipping some invoices and not others? Below is our task setup: And an example of one of the background jobs where some invoices are skipped: 

Just upgraded from IFS23R2 to IFS24R1 without hickups (thumbs up). Now I want to know how to make bulk changes to the time zone per user setting. I open the debug options and wham, what do I see…Page info gives:Where did the SQL part go that helped me to find the query (and views) used?Where is the link to the projection?Where is… the rest?User has been set up to have all access to all projections. All system privileges are added to the IFS_FULL role that we prepared (with all the projections).And no, I checked, it is not in the known IFS24R1 limitations:
