We’ve created a new context/scope in Aurena and want to roll it out to users. The only way I can find to do that is by default company. We have several business units and would like some users to see one style screen, and other users to see a different one. They are all users with the same default company. Is there any other way to do this other than company?      

When entering text fields (like Part numbers) using the numeric keypad, the dot is shown as a comma. The regional and keyboard settings in Windows are set to keyboard layout en-US, which in every other application results in a dot.  Changing regional settings or numeric format in the IFS options gives no result.  Is there a way to influence the behavior of this? 

Hi , can anyone tell me  how to update the record in mobile  .when we create a new screen we are giving the primary table and selecting the fields  for the screen but when we enter the data the data is not stored , it just disappears what is the step that i am missing .

During our manufacturing process, we produce scrap. This is anticipated, as it is a result of stamping processes on our shop floor. A part will be stamped out, and the metal skeleton is collected and then sold to a metal scrapping facility. We have been setting this up as a by-product for each type of metal (stainless, copper, etc.). The issue we are running into is that our operators have to manually receive all by-product on the shop order. Is there a way to automatically receive by-product without having an operator need to report it during the Shop Order? Should by-product even be used for this scenario? I believe we needed to use by-product for the financial transaction of selling the scrap material: PN: 123456 produced 10,000 lb of scrap as a result of the mfg process, and it was sold to company XYZ for $6,000. 

Does anyone know how regular expressions work with FSM? As in, how do you specify the (input)value that needs to be validated and how do you specify the ‘Output format’?  There are some examples which sort of make sense, but it is to little to fully understand it.     

We use Inventory Valuation Method = Weighted Average (on Apps9) and we receive inventory parts from a PO and we match the supplier invoice and pay the supplier.  Then the supplier sends us a credit. Our Supplier Invoice Consideration = Transaction Based and we would expect this credit to update the inventory value of the part.  How should this credit be processed?  We have never set up any type of “supplier credit” series but maybe this is possible?

We would like to print a pro forma invoice for a given shipment but the option is grayed out. The shipment is in “Completed” status and we’d either like to print it manually by RMB in the header of the shipment > Print Pro Forma Invoice OR have it as an optional event for the shipment type. The help says that this should be as easy as RMB in the header and clicking Print Pro Forma invoice and the only prerequisites are as follows: The shipment must be in Complete or Closed status before you can print the shipment pro forma invoice. In order to print the customs value it must be manually defined for each customer order line. The customs statistics number will be printed for both inventory and non-inventory sales parts as well as package parts, when defined in the respective inventory part, non-inventory sales part and package part records. The net weight will be printed for both inventory and non-inventory sales parts as well as package parts, when defined in the respective sales

I sent this topic to IFS Support in March, but have not received an answer. Hoping someone maybe can give me a “yes”/”no”:   We use IFS V9. We updated in the Application Base Setup > Enterprise > Site, under the Inventory > General tab, the Picking Lead Time to be 10 days for all sites in Prod. However, if we have to key a short-lead order, we get an "INFORMATION MESSAGE: THE DUE DATE IS EARLIER THAN TODAY'S DATE. EARLIER POSSIBLE DELIVERY DATE IS YYYY-MM-DD" for every line item. We can press OK and bypass the message, and it will let you continue keying, but again - it occurs with every line item, which makes keying more of a task. We are looking for a possible way to disable this message?    

We have the below XML being triggered from a business rule, after commit insert or update on the TASK table.  This XML creates a new address (using a custom view) and updates the address_id of the task.  We sometimes see that,  if there are 2 TASK’s created almost at the same time (with just 1 second delay or less than 1 second delay)  then both the task’s  are updated with the same address id.    The below expression that is updating the address_id returns the same address_id in  both cases.  <address_id xpath_node="//update_address_result[@result_name='update_tmfb_address']/address/address_id" />   However we see in the database that 2 new address_id are created but the both the task’s are updated with only 1 of them.    So basically when we have 2 similar tasks created at the same time then this business rule executes 2 times and the expression “//update_address_result[@result_name='update_tmfb_address']/address/address_id" doesn’t return unique result.  The task ‘s ar

Is it possible to show/hide fields (setControlVisibility) or set some fields as required/not required (setControlRequired) on the FSM Smart Client Screen using Client Script?  I want to set some fields as not required based on the task_type on the TASK screen, so that I do not get the validation error when saving.  If task_type = A set user_def1 as required  else if task_type = B set user_def1 as not required

Hi Experts, As I know, ‘Finished’ & ‘Cancelled’ status WOs are viewed in ‘Historical Work Orders’ screen. But, if you look on the search option for ‘Status’, it shows two more options i.e. ‘END’ & ‘Reopened’ . So, can anyone please let me know the situations of those WOs ??? what are the instances of getting such status for WOs ???   Thanks, Thieuban

Don’t laugh - I know, 2003, yeah!   Does anyone have a copy of the Data Import executable that allows you to load in new records, and update existing data in IFS2003. I cannot remember the name of it. Since my laptop rebuild, I have lost it! IFS support didn’t want to know. Thanks in advance.   TIm

Hello In FSM 5.7 mobile, when attaching photos, you can only take the photo and save within FSM but not to your camera roll. This is an issue as there have been many instances of the file getting corrupted and unable to retrieve it since it only exists in the attachment database.   Is there a way to allow the app to save these photos to the camera roll as well? I know users can upload there own photos but you have to navigate through android root menus and that is not user friendly

When I release a customer order that has a manufactured order line, it creates a shop order.   One of the custom fields on ShopOrd has a default value, but no record gets created on SHOP_ORD_CFT, so the default value isn’t set when the shop order gets created.   How do I ensure the SHOP_ORD_CFT record gets created when the shop order is created from a customer order?
