Service (Touch Apps, MWO, MRO)

Currently for our users to transfer parts to our mobile devices, they have to create a request, fill in the part needs, print picks, ship it etc. Then the tech will receive it on his screen under the receiving tab. this is a lengthy process for our shippers, especially in the summer. Logistics manager lets the user transfer a part in only a few clicks. takes 20 seconds to do. However the part wont immediately show up in the mobile users stock. They have to initialize before the data come into their phone We’re on v5.7. Is this a version issue or is there a way around this?

We are developing custom fields and custom LU’s in a customers IFS 9 Environment. We will also be developing new report files (.rdl) that contain custom logic on custom fields. These .rdl files will not be sent to IFS Harvest as they contain custom logic and will not be accepted by IFS. We have also developed a custom API which has custom logic written as per IFS standards.  we accept full responsibility on the support of all these configurations if any issues arise in the future. we will not be making any changes to core IFS code and will simply be using the configuration tools provided to us by IFS.   My Question is - Based on the nature of this work does this violate any IFS license?

Is it possible to convert the returned data from a Client Script SQL to multiple columns in a Client Script so that you can return muliple columns into a Data Source which I can directly show in a list element in the Lobby? From what I have learned I am able to create a ‘Client Script SQL’, which I call from an Client Script with the function getDBValues(“Client Script SQL id” ). From there I am able to return a list of data in a column called Return. This is some default ‘column’ which I can return from a Client Script, but I am wondering if I can return multiple columns in the Client Scrip for the Data Source to read and select instead of just one called ‘Return’?

Following the latest release of IFS Trip-tracker for APP 9 a number of our mobile engineers reported that the purpose text box went black when they tried to enter a trip purpose and the date time scroller no longer appeared when they tried to enter the date.  We managed to figure out that it was because they had their I Phone on a dark screen setting and by changing the setting the problem disappeared. Just posting in case someone else finds the same problem
