Hi all, in FSM 6.5 Has anyone figured out how to create Import Maps for (Global/Metrix) Code Table controlled fields, where the user can import the description vs. the code_value?  We are facing constant issues with users either not understanding that Code Values are needed, or simply not having access to the specific Code Values.    We’ve previously compensated by creating Excel Import map templates, with dropdowns, but keeping those up-to-date with all the global code table values & descriptions is a large effort.   Appreciate allfeedback -Rudy  

In the page designer, of IFS10 upd 9, it is possible to prepare a set for a specific context (to show the altered design to a different group of users).What are the steps to export a context and import it into another environment (other database)?I’m especially interested in work done on mWO via Touch Apps settings.Thanks in advance,Steve

Demand for the kit is not driving down to the components.The kit part number has MS Level 1 forecast demand and customer order demand. Set up as G/30 with SS and Min Lot Size.The items used in the kit also have MS Level 1 forecast demand and customer order demand. Set up as G/30 with SS and Min Lot Size.The kit supply *shop orders* shows as demand on the kit component. The kit supply *shop order requisitions* does NOT. How do I get combined total demand for the kit component that includes all of these:Component MS Level 1 Forecast Component Customer Orders Kit Shop Orders Kit Shop Order Requisitions Thank you!

Anybody had this error on the sync monitor in mWorkOrder? DB_SWITCH_SESSION:Could not switch database proxy session to user [username] Apparently the user’s account got locked prior to sending new transactions to IFS.  Since then we have unlocked the account but we are still getting this error on the user’s sync monitor.  Looking at the Sync Traces, data from IFS to mobile are working, but we have over 200+ queued transactions waiting to be sent from Mobile to IFS.  We have run the query to check if they have the IFSSYS proxy user setup and they do.  Any ideas for this error in mobile?  Idle time on the Oracle profile is unlimited too.  

Hi, I’m using MPB to schedule work orders and the option priorize critical service is not working right.   Does anyone know what logic IFS uses? E.g. Criticality and Priorite is considered by alphabetic asc order, or line number order, or another else?       tks a lot.  

After creating a custom form, I am able to add records to the new Custom LU.  However, when I add a new record, there is nothing that checks to see if that record already exists.  As an example, my new form has a field called Project Name.  If I add a new record, I want it to check to make sure that the project name does not already exist.  Essentially, I want to designate the Project Name as the primary key.  Is there a way to do this?

IFS10, UPD8 O&G Extension We are planning to start use the automatic ordering of spare parts based on demands on Work Tasks. To achieve this we have set the planning method to B on all inventory parts, parameters as per below.  Now, we have scheduled the job Create Order Proposal for one site to run each night. The problem is that it runs forever: The job started yesterday morning at 01:00 is still running… Parameters in the scheduled task are set as per below. We want to create an order proposal for all demands on all parts on work tasks, which is the reason for entering % in the parameters.  Questions: Why is the background job never finished?Is there a limit of how many parts the order proposal creation can handle? Any other limitation when it comes to demands, like planning horizon or similar?

We have a problem with Shop Order requisition due dates relative to shop order start dates that result from a MRP run. If our order quantity is 1, the manufacturing lead-time is 5, and the due date is 09/25/2020 then the start date will be 09/24/2020; why is it not offset 5 days?  Should be offset by the fixed manufacturing lead-time. If we change the order quantity to 10, then the start date is offset by 10 days and is 9/15/2020; this is not good.  We want to use “standard practice” where the lead-time offset is not affected by the order quantity size. Can anyone please help with this? EDM

I can raise and send a Purchase Order from the demand site to the Internal Supplier, this successfully creates a message in the Connectivity Outbox, however, it does not generate an Incoming Customer Order on the receiving site and there is no Connectivity Inbox message generated. I’ve got inter site trading working successfully where the sites are within the same company but not across multiple companies Any ideas? Thanks!

Would anyone know why the single occurrence ‘Name’ field would grey out??We are creating the quotation from business opportunity - 9 times out of 10 it works okay, but occasionally the quote greys out the name field on the single occurrence and we cannot amend. So if we want to put a contact/contractor name in the single occurrence we are unable to.The work around is to open up a new sales quotation screen, re-enter the quote number and it frees up the field! Any ideas:Example 1 - Single Occurrence unchecked - delivery = document address - all as expected :) Example 2 - Check the Single Occurrence box - name and address is now greyed out!Only way to clear this issue is to open a NEW window, look up the sales quotationExample 3 - New window, now I can enter name/address after the single occurrence box is checked Any ideas what is causing the screen to lock the field??? What can I do to stop this.Driving me nuts as no errors at all and cant see any background processes holding it up. It
