Hello, A user recently brought to my attention that the ‘Export’ button is missing from the IFS BR ribbon/ toolbar in Excel when the report is run/ exported from App10 IFS IEE. We are currently using version 5.0.8.0. Additionally, the IFS BR ‘Export’ button seems to appear in Development mode when logged in to IFS BR application on PC.  Is the recommended workaround to use the native Excel ‘File → Export’ functionality?

​Dear all, I am asking again  Is Anyone can confirm that Supplier Delivery Pattern does not exist in IFS 10? I have searched anywhere but nothing found, whether at the documentation or the IFS Application. If it confirmed, why it has gone?

How do you change the options in a radio group control in Aurena? For example, when adding an expense to an expense sheet, there is a radiogroup control where the user picks between mileage, entertainment, and other. For my company entertainment is not a valid option.  We only want either mileage or other. How do I hide the entertainment option from the radiogroup control?

Hello, A customer of mine has asked to extend one of the fields in IFS9. My immediate answer was: no go. Don't do it. The change is relatively simple when looking at the table itself, but the remaining things? What is your opinion on this? Regards, Steve

IFS Setup:  IFS Apps 10 Barcode Printer:  Zebra ZT-420 Crystal Reports:  2016 I am trying to create the inventory part barcode label in GS1 format.   This looked to have worked in IFS Report Designer by using a custom field to generate the code required and using the DataMatrix label format.   However, although I have amended the page layout to be 10cm x 7cm it still appears to be printing as per A4, the label prints in the centre of the width of the page.  If I look at the layout in report designer layout it still specifies A4 and will not let me change the value.   How can I do this? Secondly, can anyone recommend a GS1 Barcode Font provider that can be used in Crystal Reports as that was my second choice to create the barcode label. If we have to purchase from a GS1 Barcode Font provider, how is this implemented into IFS.  I think the ‘plugin’ would have to be installed on the middleware server.  Is there a specific folder that the font needs to be in? Lastly, how would I get IFS to

Dear IFS Community   We have found that when users run “Order Reports” or other Built In reports, the “Created” data/time is always the server time, not the time representing the users locale. Where is this set to change the Report time to the users time zone? Thanks. David.  

Hello,   I want to park an order when a condition in the shop order operation is happening. Execute it directly generates a a mutation issue, so I need to execute the park action n the background.   For that, I have created the following code in a custom event: declare p0_ VARCHAR2(32000) := NULL; p1_ VARCHAR2(32000) := NULL; p2_ VARCHAR2(32000) := NULL; p3_ VARCHAR2(32000) := NULL; attr_ VARCHAR2(32000) := NULL;begin p0_ := '&NEW:ORDER_NO';p1_ := '&NEW:RELEASE_NO';p2_ := '&NEW:SEQUENCE_NO';p3_ := 'PARK_REASON'||chr(31)||'QUALITY'||chr(30)||'PARK_MRB_NO'||chr(31)||''||chr(30)||'PARK_CHANGE_ORD_NO'||chr(31)||''||chr(30)||'PARK_ORG_CODE'||chr(31)||''||chr(30)||'PARK_PERSON_ID'||chr(31)|| '#USER_ID#'||chr(30)||'PARK_LOCATION_NO'||chr(31)||''||chr(30)||'PARK_NOTE'||chr(31)||'Nota'||chr(30);Client_SYS.Clear_Attr(attr_);CLIENT_SYS.ADD_TO_ATTR('ORDER_NO_', p0_, attr_);CLIENT_SYS.ADD_TO_ATTR('RELEASE_NO_', p1_, attr_);CLIENT_SYS.ADD_TO_ATTR('SEQUENCE_NO_', p2_, attr_);CLIENT_SYS.AD

It has been noticed in a few setups where there has been performance issues with FSM that turning off the activity feed greatly improves performance. These cases have been where the activity feed is on its default settings as it was not being used. Is there a more elegant solution to prevent the excessive use of processing by the activity feed than just switching it off. Would it be considered to have the activity feed to require setup as well as being activated to ensure that systems do not end up with these default settings that appear to be resource hungry? Any other additional information on how the activity feed processes would also be helpful. Thanks in advance. Lee      

I am attempting to re-initialize a mobile device from the Mobile Dashboard screen (Mobile Dashboard > Right click on device >  “Initialize Device”) which works - the INIT messages gets pushed to the mobile device, the mobile device initializes and everything works until you log out. After logging out on the mobile app, when you try to log in next (using the same password as before initializing) the app says the password is invalid. No changes have been made to the person record, nothing done except “Initialize Device”

Hi! A different project within the organization is implementing Applications 10 (A10), an engagement which involves both an upgrade (from v8), reimplementation of some features and utilization of new features. That implementation project is pressed for time and has little capacity to help others. While I am on a different project that is supposed to consume Asset and Resource data from IFS and then write back status updates (e.g. equipment shutdown/upgrades with according workforce reservations during planned periods). We are on a different schedule and will have to specify high-level design BEFORE the other project are ready to contribute much. Our integration this shall happen programatically, i.e. via application-to-application/machine-to-machine (A2A/M2M), e.g. via API/ReST/JSON pattern.  Now my question is this: Where do I look to learn more about recommended approaches/discussions of design choices, please?

When a task is committed in PSO, it is taking too long (sometime upto 15-20 min) to reflect in PSO.This has been a issue since day 1 of FSM and PSO implementation in TDC. Normally it takes around 3-4 min to reflect in PSO but after 2,3 days it is getting very slow (it is taking 15-20 min) that users are unable to work on and completely stand still condition coming for them and at the same time we are experiencing slowness in FSM also, then if we are restarting the gateway services and after that it is becoming normal again (it is taking 3-4 min) and FSM also becoming normal. So the story is that in general it is normal slow (3-4 min) but after 2, 3 days it is becoming abnormally slow (15-20 min). There is something happening in PSO services, which is giving this slowness and after the restart it is becoming normal again. We have priority 2 Incident running for this issue and as a workaround we have planned to restart the gateway service in every alternate day to improve the performance

Hi, I have a customer who uses Increment Schedules for night work. When an employee work night they are entitled to a fixed increment.

We heard that it’s possible to notify our users with rolling text inside of IFS. Does anyone knows how this is enabled and can be used? I think the rolling text will be visible in the address field in Enterprise Explorer. (is this possible in Aurena as well?) Wants to notify users with info about upcoming updates, important actions, etc.
