Get Customer Name – Report Rule

Hi

This is how we have solved it in IFS Apps 9 Update 13. I’m not sure about IFS Apps 10 but possibly it’s the same.

To get the Customer Name:

[&Customer_Info_API.Get_Name('[@CUSTOMER_NO]')]

To get the current users email when USER_EMAIL is not available:

[&Fnd_User_API.Get_Property('#CurrentUser','SMTP_MAIL_ADDRESS')]

Best regards

Hi @JohanLindstrom 

Thank you for your reaction.

I have tested your suggestion, but it’s not working. See my results below.

This is the expression for the Subject:

And this the subject of the email, as you can see the Customer Name is not there:

Hi @BZNSIMON 

Try:

 [&Customer_Info_API.Get_Name('[@CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/CUSTOMER_NO]')]

Hi @JohanLindstrom 

Thank you! It did the job.

There is only one thing that is still not working. When the Customer has a dot or multiple dots in the Customer Name, the report rule for the PDF-file generated by IFS is not working.

To change the name successfully I need to remove all ‘.’ In the name of the customer, for example “Organisation b.v.” into “Organisation bv”

Do you know how I can replace/remove the ‘.’-characters from a customer’s name?

And also your suggestion for my second question isn't working. Do you have another suggestion?

Kind regards,

Simon
