IFS 10 update 11 regarding dates. I noticed that the duration on the work task originally sets the planned finish date after the planned start is entered. When you update the duration longer, the planned finish will recalculate based on that, but if you update the duration to a shorter time it does not update the planned finish. Is there a reason for that functionality or am I missing something in my data?Duration was at 4, entered planned start date/time of 10:00 AM and it ended at 3pm with the hour of lunch calculated.Duration changed to 20 and get a pop up which pushed out the planned finish.When you bring back to 6 hours it doesn’t re-calculate again.

In IFS 10 EE is there a better way to control updates to the Failure Analysis codes? For example I can tell that in the basic data the option to invalidate or block has been added to many of the basic data codes, but when they are marked blocked they do not stop showing up for the end user because they are already in the failure analysis set up navigator. Are we missing something that can help control that?

We have seen slowness in processing the messages in PUSH queue. How we can solve this slowness issue? We tried several ways but it is not solved.

Hello,Could someone please help with the situation bellow?I have set up a schedule to transfer the work assignments to mobile with transfer_window = 1.I understand that the system will transfer just the the of the allocated start.But the system has transfered all the assignments of different day.E.g. Allocated start to 08/21/2021, 08/01/2021 etc. Or the transfer_window means that the system will transfer all previous assignments till the sysdate as I chose “1” in the parameter field?Tks a lot   

We have a middleware service, that is serving 4 instances of IFS on a UAT basis.All of these instances can be connected to using the URL https://ifsinstancename.microlise.com/”port”However, on the Windows IIS Manager, there isn’t a bindings section that covers the https connection.I need to update a soon to expire digital certificate, but cannot find where it picks up the bindings for it.Does anyone know how I can resolve this, or should I log it with IFS support? Thank you for looking.Kind regardsRichard.

Is it possible to update a Sell Price on a service line once pushed to the Customer Order?  We receive an error stating it must be done in the Work Order but wondering if there is a bypass flag somewhere in the basic data to avoid that. We are using IFS APS10 Thank You

Hi, when i open notify-me i receive this message (attached), anyone can help-me?

In Apps 9 on the material requisition tab of the Separate Standard job view, you could RMB on a new line and use the option LOV from Purchase Part. When added to a work order, this would automatically generate a Purchase Requisition on the work order. Is there a similar functionality in Apps 10 using the Work Task Template?

Scanning on Receiving Screen.We have a requirement from one of our customers, that on receiving screen they would like to have the scanning facility (wifi scanner) in such a way that on units tab, as soon as serial is entered in row 1, it automatically goes to new row and user is able to just continuously keep scanning the serial numbers (like how we have in supermarkets).They would not like to new button every time. to create a new row and then scan the serial.Also they would prefer even the first time they don't have to click on new. They would just want to start scanning and the entry should be created in units tab automatically. They just want to scan one after the other and system should automatically consider it as a new serial. Is there an option to do so? 

I’ve noticed alot of users triggering the following error in our mobile error run log   It states:   Error: EXCEPTION Message: Person ID passed in is not valid or is not a mobile user. ... Stack Trace:    at Metrix.BusinessServer.BusinessPolicies.SharedTablesComponent.MobileManager.PerformReplicationForTable(String tableNameIn, String personIdIn) Message:PerformReplicationForTable(table:STOCK_SERIAL_ID)   Any idea what this is? I know it says not a mobile user but i can’t tell what they’re doing to get this error   Happens all day but no one is getting errors on screen, this is just on this end  

Is the Execution Time used for anything on PM Actions in Apps 10?  I understand the use of the duration which is at the work task level.  Since the introduction of duration on work tasks in Apps 10, what functionality does the execution time provide in IFS Applications 10?

Is there a functionality that will give me a warning if i try to create a Work Order using a customer where the customer record is expired?

We use the service contract functionality to create annual maintenance contracts for our customers. We would like to create and assign work orders to our engineers for scheduling purposes before the contract start date (we don’t plan to create any financial postings etc until the contract starts).   Example: A service contract with a start date of 01/02/2020. We would set this up in advance and use the ‘PM Settings’ tab to create the number of work orders we require. This would create the relevant entries on the ‘PM Maintenance Plan’ tab which you can generate work orders from. However the ‘Generate Work Order’ RMB option is greyed out on the ‘PM Maintenance Plan’ tab until you reach 01/02/2020. It would be ideal if we could do this the week before, this would allow us to schedule better.   We could just put the Start Date of the Service Contract earlier, however this would mean the date doesn’t reflect the correct ‘commercial’ start date.

Is the service Report in mWo Service 10 supposed to not show expenses that have been reported in mobile?

Let me preface this with telling you I know absolutely nothing about IFS. I work for an MSP and one of our newest clients uses it. I wasn’t able to find any KB, and reaching out to IFS support didn’t help - they wouldn’t talk to me without a ticket. I have a user that needs to print from IFS. I need a print agent as a go between her windows printers and IFS right? which one should i get? I know they used cirrato in the past.She also is unable to drag and drop files from her desktop to attach them to documents, any workaround there?Once again, any KB links accessible by non-subscribers would be greatly appreciatedTIA

Hi, Is there a way to make a field in mobile work order mandatory?For example make “Work Type” as mandatory for user entering New Work. It may be of course controlled by an event but when the event fires and the whole work in mWO will be done offline, the work order won’t  be created in application as the event will stop the process of creating task. Best regards,Hubert

Hi all,I’m working on an IFS Apps 10 environment connected to IFS PSO.The 2 applications are connected, but when the LOAD message is sent from Apps to PSO, I have the following error message in the Application Messages :Exception while sending dataCaused by: ifs.fnd.base.SystemException: Post error: 413 (Request Entity Too Large).Does anyone faced this issue and have an idea of the root cause?Thanks in advance for your help!Gladys.

Are there any guidelines regarding the amount of mobile data that is used in the MWO app (ideally the apps 10 version)? I’m referring to the mobile data usage for a typical technician on a typical day.I realise that this question is extremely open ended and it will depend on the amount of tasks that are synced and the number attachments and pictures that are available. It would be great if there is any information on this, or maybe if anyone can share their own experience? 

We are currently working in Apps 10 of IFS.  Our scenario is working on a Work order in site A but need material from Site B.  Is it possible to generate a Transport task to pull inventory from site B directly within the Work Order?   If the answer is no, is it possible to Manually reserve inventory on an active Transport Task from within the Work Order? Thank You

HI all,We are currently trying to get the FSM6u8 Android app running in the Android emulator.  We have all the neccessary certificates installed on the virtual device, but it just wont connect. When we type the URL into the device browser, it goes to the landing page, but says certificate is missing.  If you click cancel on that message, you still see the page and can download the app.  Each time you go to the URL in the browser after that, you get no certificate message.  Only when you first try it. We are completely stumped with this and would appreciate any help.I have run the app fro the studio and monitored  the logcat and we get the errors below. Thanks in advance. 2021-03-11 15:50:43.933 6940-7085/com.metrix.metrixmobile E/com.metrix.metrixmobile: ProbReadingRemoteResFor1Args: javax.net.ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException: CannotVerifyHostname1Args        at com.metrix.architecture.services.MetrixRemoteExe
