Solved

The IRS has added an new tax form 1099-NEC.  We need to get this new form and understand how to set up IFS to get supplier income to report on the correct for and in the correct box.  Current functionality only allows for one 1099-Misc form. Going forward we will need 2 forms, 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC. Has anyone us run into this yet? This would be for Apps 9 and Apps 10 as we are planning to finish our upgrade soon. 

Hello allHappy New Year to all of youWe have just switched to IFS Apps10. Now we found the following problem in Document Management - Approval Routing.An Approval Step assigned to a user who is not yet in the access schema of the DocIssue. Now he is automatically added by IFS with view rights in the access schema. If this user now wants to approve his step, the message appears that he is not authorized to approve. I have to give the user admin rights so that he can approve the step.In the Solution Manager the security checkpoints for the approvals are activated. However, they are not selected for DocApprovals.In IFS7.5 the approval could be done with view rights without any problems.Have any of you had the same or a similar experience and what can be done against it?Where can this be configured / set?Thanks for your supportPeter

Dear All,IEE Version: IFS Application Version 10 Update 7I am looking for a functionality on work assignment to track time in two below scenarios. My customer is from service management background:Customer personnal (employees) are working in morning shift (6AM to 6 PM) and night shift (6PM to 6 AM) with 12 hours duration each. When work task duration is for more than a day multiple work assignments get created based on HR Schedules. We have status - assigned, accepted, start travel (onroute), waiting at location, work started, pauses and work completion for work assignments currently in standard application.

For morning shift personal if the work is scheduled to start at 6 AM at customer’s client location then he will start planning work at say 4 AM (planning for necessary tool

We’re on APPS10 UP6.   I’ve configured the IFS History Log to show changes to a specific field on the inventory Part.  The logging works and as an administrator I can see all changes,  but when a user on the Inventory Part does View - Record History  they can only see the changes they made not the field changes that another user made.  To me that defeats the purpose of the Record History - to see who changed a field and to what value.  If I set system Privilege = Administrator in their Role, then they can see changes from all users.  But we don’t want to give Administrator Access to any users.   Is this by design or is there a setting in the Roles that allow this action without setting as Administrator?   I’ve tried to give access through the role but can’t get it to work. 

this is running FSM 5.7it seems that the service history for request and tasks is delayed in getting to the mobile platformi already checked the sync rules and it happens as a BATCH ALL at 9 PM every night. Nothing has been touched from the OOTB integration. For example i am looking at a request that was closed 10 days ago yet still doesn't show on the mobile platform.However when i initialize the history is immediately there.How can i fix this so that it shows up at least on the daily sync?

Hi,I’m trying to raise an error to a Background Job.I have a procedure that is called by a background job.I’ll fetch an object, and sometime it doesn’t exist. Normally because the object is deleted by the user before the job has been run.    CURSOR get_Objid IS      select objid from project_transaction WHERE objkey = 'BB8A4E9B030B41DDABB62F8381C9DFFD';    OPEN get_Objid;    FETCH get_Objid      INTO objid_;    CLOSE get_Objid; I would then like to handle the exception and have a custom error message send back to the background job. So I use this one:    IF (objid_ is null) THEN        raise_application_error(-20001,'No value in objid!');    END IF;It works find when running the script in a terminal, but if I run it with a background job I don’t get the error.How can this be done?BR Kresten

In our production process we would like to have a different routing after each 50 units which are produced. This alternate routing should send the produced items to an external control center (outside operations) is there a way to implement the requested process in standard IFS. The lot size will not be higher than 10 pcs at the time. So, the alternate routing should be triggered based on the cumulative units produced.

When trying to update a record using the API for any Custom LU (_CLT table in IFS), we get this error. ERROR: MODIFIED2: The ‘LU Name’ object has been modified by another user. Please refresh the object and reenter your changes. The error is saying that a record can't be updated because it is already being updated, which is not the case. This happens regardless of which table the triggering action is coming from. The update method that is called using the API is 'PackageName'_CLP.Modify__( ). This modify method is auto generated when the Custom LU is made. We have verified that the New__ API call for inserting a record does work correctly for Custom LU tables, but the Modify__ or Remove__ API calls do not.To be clear, we are able to call the API methods to Update, Insert, and Delete records from IFS standard tables, (tables ending in _TAB), as well as custom field tables, (tables ending in _CFT) but we are having this issue with the tables made from Custom Logical Units, (tables ending

We use APPS 10 and IEE.  I am a new IEE admin.   I have a user that is requesting to have a couple of additional columns added to a view.  In this case it is the Fixed Asset “Object Balances Analysis” view.  The Columns exist in 2 other views:  “Depreciation Method” and the Fixed Assets > Object “Estimated Life” column.   The IEE Admin training did not cover this.  I am looking for any good information on adding data (columns) that already exist to other views.Thank you kindly for any info you can provide.
