Is Group/Sum option in Advanced Search functionality available in IFS Cloud version? 

There are several topics posted covering this topic. As the below entries were few years old, I was hoping something might have changed in between. Can I know that, will this Group/Sum option included in upcoming cloud version. If it is already available, is there any material on how this is done?

Missing Group/Sum option in IFS Cloud #GSDTECH# | IFS Community

Advanced search (i.e. group, count, sum, etc) | IFS Community

 

One of IFS customers has raised this question again and In App9 & App10 user had the possibility to conduct advanced searches by grouping values and summarizing values in table views. They wants to know whether this will be included in a release in the near future. 

Business Impact: User will have to use longer methods to find information that is required.

 

Thank You & Best Regards,

Hi @thaelk,

As per my understanding due to some technical/ functional difficulties/ challenges the different product areas face, RnD has not decided to implement Group/ Sum/ Order in IFS Cloud. Recently I have checked whether this has been implemented in our latest 23R2 environment and the results were negative. One workaround is that we can export the data into Excel and find the relevant group/sum for respective columns (which may be time-consuming).

Hi @thaelk 

I have further checked this behavior and found these steps which may help you. Assume if we want to get the sum of Reserved Qty;

  1. Open page navigator
  2. Click on Inventory part in stock list
  3. There is separate field called ‘ > Summary’
  4. Now click on + mark and enter a pick value in the summary field > confirm and closed.
  5. Now save it and publish it in the Global Context.
  6. Now you can see the sum of the quantities of the relevant field.

Hi

 

Does someone noticed performance issues after setting any summaries?


Interested in this solution and if folks are noticing a performance hit as a result. 


Are there any workarounds or future implementations regarding grouping on lists. Sum helps a bit, but grouping is still an issue.


Hello, I am interested to know if sum and grouping functionality has been already added in some of the recent releases. 


Hi! I´m also interesting in a solution closer to the capabilities of APP10. The group/sum was used heavily in our organization before moving to Cloud.
