Solved

We went live back in August and want to tidy our accounting periods up.   We have them going back to 1900.  For a number of years the periods are closed but the year is open.   How do we carry out  the RMB > Final Period Close on the Accounting Periods screen,   The periods are all closed and there are no outstanding transactions/errors etc., reported when running RMB > Validate Transactions in Progress,  but still the Final Period Close is greyed out.  Also, is there a way to carry out a number of year ends.Would it be a case of using Cursor and API calls to perform the same task as running through the process in IFS.

Has anybody determined the situation in which one may want to set the Inbound Work Center location(s) as Not Allowed for outside reserve/backflush AND set the Inbound location(s) as Not Shared? Just trying to get a feel for how the combinations of thesetwo settings can work together.

I thought this would be easy, and may be it is. I am simply trying to get a value out of an existing IFS Field, not a Custom Field to use in a Custom Event PL/SQL Script. The IFS Form itself will be populated by a search beforehand.

We are now using the Service Quotation functionality. Upon accepting a Service Quotation this will generate a work order with pre-populate information, including budget costs/revenue. Within the Budget tab of the work order both Planned Cost and Planned Revenue fields are populated with data.  I would like to use these tabs on some quick reports, however when I query the WORK_ORDER_BUDGET_TAB these fields do not appear. Below is the Systems info page whilst on the Budget tab of a work order. The second screenshot is the table itself. Any ideas how to get access to these two fields?    

Hi all , Please help me to understand how the Demand forecast Reports  generated by the demand planning client is used in other  IFS modules . Is there other modules that automatically receive the forecast generated and where can I find it in IFS. For example where in IPR or MRP can I find the generated forecast used for further processes. Thanks Julius

We are experiencing a large number of stopped Incoming Customer Orders during our scheduled file import each morning, across multiple customers with the error message:  ORA-20112: CustomerOrder.EXIST2: The Customer Order object already exists. These orders do not already exist, and if the user RMB > Approves the order from Incoming Customer Order, it will approve the error without any prior action needed.  We have previously submitted this issue to IFS, and they were not able to recreate in their environment - leaving us without answers.  I was able to recreate this error in our TEST environment, using our incoming prod orders from today, and I resubmitted a case to IFS - but looking to see if anyone else has experienced this error? 

A customer needs to implement a lobby which navigates to another lobby. They need to pass a couple of fields from the first lobby to filter data in the second lobby. It appears that this functionality is not working in Aurena. Has anyone come across this scenario with another customer? Thanks

We have some Aurena lobbies that use the context substitution variable #PERSON_ID# as the default value for the page parameter so that the lobby elements are by default based on the logged on user.  In Apps 10 UPD7 this works fine with no discernable performance issues.  After installing UPD9 we find that use of the context substitution variable causes elements to update slower or not at all (after a long delay), but typing in the person ID restores the performance to normal.  Has anyone else experienced this issue and/or does anyone know if the use of context substitution variables on Aurena pages has changed for UPD9? Thanks!

Hello all, I’m attempting to format an Event Action email with return carriages.

Hello, I am hoping someone can assist or shed light on an issue I am struggling with: I created an FA Object then successfully set its acquisition value ($1,000) through a PO and subsequent PO receipt. I then activated the object. I then increased its value by $10 via a supplier invoice but with no PO. After posting the invoice, I activated this additional investment via the Add Investment - Progress window. Now I would like to increase its value by $100, but this time via a PO receipt. So I entered a PO, assigned it the same FA Object ID, then received, ran transfers and updated the GL. However, when looking at my Distribution and Manufacturing Postings Analysis, I get this error:  “You have specified an object with wrong status.”  This suggests that the object shouldn’t be in a non Active state for the postings to go through. So I tried to deactivate the object, but get an error message: “There are active transactions that needs to be rolled back before deactivating the object.” This
