It is getting more and more common to buy services as a subscription model rather than just buying a product up front. The whole SaaS model is based upon this.My question: How do you in this community deal with these purchases?My experience is that companies purchases subscriptions without a purchase order and deal with manual postings on invoice.If we would use the normal flow in IFS, and create a Purchase Order for this purchase. I would have to make a receipt of the PO to get invoices to match. That would be as much, or even more, work than just to deal with the invoice. Also, I don’t want to receive a larger amount than I am supposed to pay each month which would force me to do a receipt each month.Ideally there should be a functionality where I can create a PO and accept invoices/payments with re-occuring settings (for instance each month for a 2y period). It should be enough to approve one time that the purchase/payments will be done in accordance with Supplier Agreement.
I have always found docman to work very well with windows and microsoft products. I have recently changed company and are now running IFS Cloud on Mac and google docs. I am sad to say, either I am missing some settings in IFS cloud or docman is not working at all in this combination.Is this something that your are aware of and intend to improve for the future?
In IFS10 and 9 it was possible to write criteria's in the where clause of a data source as: column1 in (select column1 from ifsapp.view2 where Active =’True’)i.e. if column1 is present in another view and where clause is fulfilled, that whole select is valid. (I did not add view name and select, where for the view that would have to be entered own columns in data source editor)This does not seem to work in IFS Cloud using SQL data sources. Would it be possible to do anything similar using a projection? in that case, how?
