Hello, are there some “rule of thumb” recommendations about document repository storage with IFS Apps?   Qualitatively, it’s sure that if there is a “big” total volume of documents and/or large individual documents, it might be safe to store on file server rather than as BLOBs in Oracle DB.   But the question is how big is “big”? Are there some metrics, returns of experience about this?

We are currently using APPS 9 and would like to introduce purchase order authorisation via mobile. Am a little new to IFS, so wondering if that technology works in APPS 9 and if so, how can I set this up?   Thanks! for all feedback!

Hi, What would be the probable cause and resolution for this issue.   The Crystal Web Service has been set up on a test application server all necessary components and grants are in place from what I can see. I have tested the report services to pull back a report from an invoke which works fine but the application isn’t picking this up through the affiliated application pool. It references lack of permissions to the virtual directory but from comparison to Live it looks to be the same with the values changed accordingly.   Many Thanks,

Dear all, I created a lobby element based on an IAL.  The navigation from the counter to the target-window does not transfer the result even if I use the option “Use data source condition”.  Instead the target window is populating all data. For “non-IAL” data sources the target-page gets the right values.   Is there a trick how to make that work for IALs?   Thanks a lot in advance!   Best Fabian

Dear all! I am using the following code (it is just a poart of it) in an event action (Execute Online SQL) to inform people via stream message when they have been linked to a project task:   client_sys.Clear_Attr(attr_);      client_sys.Add_To_Attr('FROM_', person_info_API.get_user_id('&NEW:RESPONSIBLE'), attr_);  client_sys.Add_To_Attr('TO_NAMES_', USER_ID_, attr_); client_sys.Add_To_Attr('HEADER_', 'You have been assigned.', attr_); client_sys.Add_To_Attr('BODY_', 'You have been assigned in activity-sequence '||'&NEW:ACTIVITY_SEQ'|| ' to task' ||'&NEW:TASK_ID'|| ' Description: '||'&NEW:NAME'|| ' Thanks!', attr_);client_sys.Add_To_Attr('URL_', 'ifsapf:frmActivity', attr_); Transaction_SYS.Deferred_Call ('FND_STREAM_API.Create_Event_Action_Streams','PARAMETER', attr_, 'Inform PM');   Unfortunately the right window for the actual activity does not open when the user is clicking on the stream message as the URL is just generelly defined as seen above in green.

But the settings on the address used are that this address can have tax and this is not set on EXEMPT. Anybody an idea which setting could trigger this message? Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone,   Is it possible for FSM Mobile execute a custom script during a sync? My goal is to leverage a script to force a sync on another application on the mobile device after or during a sync in FSM.   Thanks, Jack Olson

Hello! We have the following case. We want to use report rule to send invoice to our foreign customers instead of doing it with attachments in Outlook. Our problem is that the customer also need to get the delivery note (delivery note from shipment) in the same e-mail. Either as a combined PDF or as an second attachment.   Is this possible with report rule? Can it be used to collect both reports, when printing invoice?  We have IFS 10.

Hi Could I have to add a new variable in Posting types ? example in PP37 I want use from supplier group or combination-variables ?

Hi, I need to send a json string with an application message. I’m on IFS9 so I can’t use a REST destinationtype, so I’m using Http. Is there any way I can send a json string instead of an XML ? Its just one line. Please correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think I can create a transformer to do this without access to IFS Developer studio, and I don’t have that. Also I’m unsure if transformers will do json. Can I create an application message with a json using pl/sql code?     Best regards Kresten

I would like to use one of the UDF fields from the Request template and when running the ECO Generation it copy that field onto the Request. is this doable? if so what additional setup would be required as just adding the field to the UI for the request template did not do it.   Thanks,   Graeme

We have a customised layout for the customer statements which displays the discount if they pay by X date. Its being quite difficult to manage, as the discount calculation appears to be out! Question is, does IFS have some standard functionality I can take advantage of instead??   Thanks

Hi   IFS seems to recommend use of multitenant database (container database + pluggable database) when installing IFS10 (at least that setup is described in help files) but since only one PDB per CDB is supported I can not really see any advantage of using multitenant setup. So, why use multitenant database (instead of single instance)? Neno Solaja

I’ve created an object connection for PurchaseReceipt that allows me to to manually link a PO Receipt to an NCR that I created using the NCR wizard.   Is this the correct process flow? Register Inspection Results, then Create the NCR, and then link the 2 together?     Thanks, Chris.

Sorry, this was already logged but closed in error after getting an answer on enabling the Crystal Web Service Logs.   I have the same crystal report in 2 IFS instances.  One works without any issues where as the second on fails with the No PDF report returned from Crystal Web Service.   On checking the log file I get the following: 6/2/2020 10:04:06 AM[IFSCRWebSetup_IFSR]-[GetSavedPDFReport] File Name : TnmtShpordBarc.rpt 6/2/2020 10:04:06 AM[IFSCRWebSetup_IFSR]-[GetSavedPDFReport] ParameterValues : 281.0 ,LangCode = gb 6/2/2020 10:04:06 AM[IFSCRWebSetup_IFSR]-[base64Encode] for 281 6/2/2020 10:04:06 AM[IFSCRWebSetup_IFSR]-[base64Encode] Encoded value : Mjgx 6/2/2020 10:04:06 AM[IFSCRWebSetup_IFSR]-[base64Decode] for Mjgx 6/2/2020 10:04:06 AM[IFSCRWebSetup_IFSR]-[base64Decode] Decoded to 281 6/2/2020 10:04:06 AM[IFSCRWebSetup_IFSR]-[OpenReport] File Name : gb\TnmtShpordBarc.rpt 6/2/2020 10:04:06 AM[IFSCRWebSetup_IFSR]-[GetAppSetting] Get the value for OpenReportPath from Web.con

Report x works in Crystal Reports and other Crystal Reports work in the IFS instance.   However, when we run report x in the IFS instance we receive the following message:     When I went to check the Crystal Reports log for this instance there was no Crystal Reports log.   On noticing that there were no error logs I ran CR_Web_Log.exe that resided in folder C:\inetpub\wwwroot\IFSCRWebSetup_IFSR     After clicking on Save and Close I checked the ifs-crystal-config.xml file:     I logged out of Enterprise Explorer for the instance concerned and logged back in again and tried running the report again, same error received (as expected) but the only thing in the Log file:       Please note, report x works in all other IFS instances.   Can anyone please advise what I have missed or where I am going wrong.   Thank you.  

Is it possible to do a full-text search to find documents stored in the Document Management application in IFS?
