Can we write a condition using expression instead of using "change" operator. I have a business rule where I have a condition using expression like below: In the same expression can we also check whether PERSON_CAL_EXCEPT.START_DTTM has been changed or not. The intention is not to add one more input param “PERSON_CAL_EXCEPT.START_DTTM”  and not to rebuild the condition again with an additional line  for checking whether PERSON_CAL_EXCEPT.START_DTTM has been changed or not.   Please help if anybody has any suggestion on this.

Morning all,   We have an issue where we have certain suppliers who “chance it” and send us material that they have finished early (sometimes months early). Obviously we don’t want to be taking on this stock until we actually need it however as some of it is sent by courier i.e. FEDEX, UPS etc we get the courier dropping the item off, takes a quick signature and then they are on their way. It is only after manual inspection of the delivery later that we realise that we have something we didn’t yet need. I know what you are all thinking. just tell the supplier to stop doing it! (apparently they don’t listen) For audit obviously we have to register the purchase order arrival but after this we have 3 options.  Leave the stock as registered and keep stored in a goods-in location Return for Credit Return for Rework The only one that works in the way they want is Return for Rework in so far as it halts the payment, creates a return note and upon it coming back we can just re-registe

Hi guys,  This was posted a while back. A ton of people viewed it but gave no answer - despite  me requiring one desperately! Since then I posted ‘more simple’ kinds of questions, and received a reply soon after. But, to be frank, that’s no good. Surely I should get some indication for the more complex stuff without recourse to a consultant? I’ve got a query about how to use APB. An example is apt here. Consider an MPS consisting of 2 items. Lets stipulate the structure for each is: Level 0 = end-item (GA), Level 1 = SA (x2), Level 2 = 4 piece parts & Level 3 = 10 piece parts. Let’s also imagine 0 overlap between recipes (thus no requisition to merge supply). The relevant ‘Priority Rule’ is ‘Earliest Possible Due Date’ (with all operations selected) since we’re looking to schedule both projects to finish asap, with no spare capacity gaps. 2 options arise at this stage. Either, schedule both project items (under the priority rule stated) in APB with a single executed run. Or, l

Hi, What is the functionality of ‘Planning Structure’ in IFS Apps 10?  I pasted a part no. into the initial search and received nothing. So, assuming it’s relevant to scheduling, what are the data requirement necessary to run it?   thanks,

We have just installed FSM 6.4 in our test environment, but cant find how to access the Technician Portal.  We installed the Web Client (of which i understand the Technician Portal is part of?), however if we try and log in as a TECHPORTAL licence we get an error stating user is only configured for Tech Portal access.  So how do we log in as Tech Portal?   Thanks in advance

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.
