About the Community

I am currently running the support desk for our IFS Apps 9 application, servicing over 350 full license users. Am struggling a bit to keep up with demand for usual service items, permission sets, user amendments, general functionality questions alongside a backlog of change requests (Some large, some not so big) alongside Projects, and a potential upgrade. I also have a number of integrations that always require supportI have an analyst, and a developer who helps from time to time but is dedicated to the business. We have a small technical team that look after the on-prem servers, but thats about it. What size teams are typical for similar businesses? We use the HR with health and safety, SFWB, Finance, Service, Relationship Management, Supply chain  to mention a few along with a fair amount of config. We have a small pot of funds to support configurations that are out of my knowledge base and some functional support. Its a fair amount, and I am approaching the business leads for more

When the Gold Support Terms or Global Support Policy are updated, we, the 1st line, must inform our customers with support service contracts of the changes.Global Support Policy has a update date in the document so we can check if it has been updated or not.However, Gold Support Terms has no such date and the only way to find out is to check the difference. To begin with, does IFS change the Gold Support Terms from time to time?If so, I would like to be able to confirrm the date and content of any updates. Best Regards,

Hello,What are some IFS Academy courses that are beneficial to take for someone that is looking to get into IFS development/maintenance? I would ideally like to start using the IFS Developer Studio but I’m not 100% sure which courses are worth the price tag that can provide a basic tutorial to help build a skillset out.Thanks,Bryan

Why there is no old / closed cases in New Service Center?

Hi All, Please let me know your inputs for these concerns.1)When I try to do my certified practitioner exam from  Google chrome I'm unable to login to ifs academy have to change the password. 2) Unable to view the questions of the 1st attempt. 

Hello,The service center portal allows searching for cases based on specific criteria: However, since the data presented on the portal shows very limited attributes of cases, it is not possible to take advantage of such fancy search options. Does someone know how to use this effectively?

Please tell us more about the contents of Global Support Policy.Q1. For customers using IFS Cloud, if they exit “Continuous Support” without updating RU, 　will they be migrated to “Restricted Support”? Or will it no longer be supported?Q2. In ”Severity Level Definitions”(P5), what exactly is the definition of Urgency 1 through 3?Q3. In ”Error Correction Delivery Policy”(P6), the following is described.     “a single patch will only be delivered for the current Update -2 or later.” 　Does this mean, for example, that if the latest Update is 18, single patch corresponding to Update 16 will be provided?Q4. In “Glossary of Terms” (P9), does “Current Release” mean IFS Applications10 including all the latest Updates and single patches?Q5. Please tell me what exactly you mean by the following statements in “Current Release”.     “other currently supported Releases as designated by IFS in the then current IFS Support Policy.”Best Regards,

Hi all, I’ve accidently marked a answer as solved, although it doesn’t work, can you tell me how to undo it or delete my question?I can’t even edit it anymore… Regards,Lena

Hello IFS User Community,I am a member of an IFS Implementation project team, located in the UK, currently gearing up for our UK go-live.Following the UK go-live, the implementation project team then move onwards to our global IFS roll-out, implementing IFS across my organisation, with next step being IFS implementation across Australia and Singapore.In preparation for the implementation of IFS in the APAC region, are there any APAC-based IFS users on this User Community ? My intent of this question is simply to extend my working knowledge of global companies / organisations currently using IFS (outside of my current, albeit limited, knowledge of the UK IFS user base).Very many thanks in advance.

I was set up with my IFS customer account and logged into the Customer Portal (https://portal.ifsworld.com/portal/) the next day.  Initially, the IFS Support link was completely broken, opening to void(0);.  Sometime later it began working with a direct click opening the Support Portal (https://support.ifs.com/csm ).  I suspect there may have been a delayed permissions issue.  However, trying to right-click to “Open link in a new tab” fails.  I’m using latest Chrome.  Is this intentional behavior?

Could someone please confirm if IFS version 10 is impacted by following log4j Vulnerabilities?We are using Oracle version 19.3.0.CVE-2019-17571CVE-2020-9488CVE-2021-4104CVE-2022-23302CVE-2022-23305CVE-2022-23307 Refer https://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/ Thanks

I tried to set up my IFS Support password but every password is telling me that: The password does not meet the password policy requirements. Please check the mentioned 'Password Complexity Requirements'. I used the policy requirements, but it keeps being rejected.  Who can I contact about this?

I’m having problems logging into the portal.  I haven’t used it in a while and it won’t allow me to reset my password.  I get “Invalid Username or User has not been approved. Please type your IFS username correctly and try again.” when I submit my username. I even tried to “register” but it says my username and email address already exist.

I can’t change password on Partner portal. I got error message like “General problem” contact service desk …Non of those accounts previous ProJarosK, nor new one CGIJarosK work for me. Could you please change email address connected to ProJarosK to different email? Jarek Kruk

Is anyone else having issues logging into the Customer Portal? I ran into the below error last week, reset my password and was good. I’m getting the same error, changed my password again and I still can’t log in. This has been going on for the past 3 weeks or so.  

The last week or so I’ve not been able to get the search to work properly in the community.   Anything I enter in the search field does not return any result.   Is anyone else having an issue searching the community forum?

I am trying to raise a support case via the CEC and it is not working - it has been a good while since I’ve had to use the portal but nothing is working - I can log in but it won’t allow me to view cases (loads are missing) but also I can’t raise a new one. Has something changed? We are still paying our support charges even for Apps9. Help very much appreciated.
