IPS - Trouble with Related program (CRS885/886)

Tim Askerov

I am trying to build an IPS service to automate the deletion of Partner Repository aliases managed by CRS886 as unfortunately Infor didn't bother creating an CRS886MI.Dlt* API transaction.

In order to get to CRS886 I have to go through CRS885 first where I have to enter the partner type (constant 11 in field W1PATE) and the partner's ID into the filter box in the first column's header (field W1PAID), click Apply (Enter) to filter the grid, click the first row to select it, and finally navigate to the partner's alias in CRS886 by either:

1. Related > Partner alias, or
2. Enter (Display button) to advance to CRS885/E, then another Enter (Next button) to get to CRS886/B

I am stuck at selecting the first grid row though as the service keeps giving me the error "Failed to switch panel. Re-tried one time but still on same panel B."

I see nothing in the Infor docs or elsewhere online about how this can be accomplished.

Any suggestions, anyone?

The problem turned out to be on CRS886/D where an alert is popped up confirming the delete action, and that alert is what prevents IPS from being able to interact with that panel. So there is no way to automate deletion of partner alias records as the CRS886MI API doesn't have a Del* transaction. Bummer!
