Hi all, We plan to create a lobby for LTU Shop Floor user’s to control their own time registration. We are currently using the 24R2 SU1 release of IFS Cloud. Does anybody knows if granting a lobby page on the LTU permission set is allowed without breaking the licence and if future release of this permission won’t break and / or lock this functionality ? Thanks for your replies,

Hello, As we began applying the Release Update 24R2, we noticed that a new component, WRKTSK, has been introduced as part of this release. Several APIs (entities, utilities, and enumerations) have been moved from the existing WO component to WRKTSK. We have customized approximately 30 APIs from this list, and now we need to uplift these APIs from WO to WRKTSK. Could you please advise on the best approach to carry out this task? While using the Impact Analyzer tool, we noticed that the results don't provide sufficient comparison details (screenshot attached for reference). Additionally, we are unable to find a way to download all the core files of 24R2 to analyze how the WRKTSK files have impacted our customizations. Has anybody experienced similiar issues? Any help would be greatly appriciated.

Hi, I am reaching out to connect and discuss how various IFS customers are approaching their upgrade to IFS Cloud. We are in the Food and Beverage manufacturing sector, currently using IFS Applications 10 EE, and are in the process of planning our move to IFS Cloud. We are trying to determine whether to opt for a re-implementation or a technical upgrade, considering all the factors involved. I am specifically keen to learn about others' experiences and understand the timeframe you either plan to take or have taken to transition from APPS10 to IFS Cloud. I welcome all responses and connections! Thanks, Jack

Hi IFS Experts,As we known, IFS AI or ML related features are only available in Cloud Deployment option (IFS Managed Cloud). We are IFS parnter and the customers would like to know1. with latest release, more and more new AI scenarios will be enabled. Is there any roadmap to enable AI/ML related functionalities in IFS Remote mode?2. Apart from AI, does IFS could provide a list to partners/customers to show clear differences between IFS Managed Cloud and on-Premise mode regarding IFS compoents, funtionalities and restrictions? Thanks!

We have purchased some LTU licenses and I have uploaded these permission sets into our IFS Cloud environment. Can anyone tell me if I need to get an updated version of these LTU permission sets for Service Updates? I am aware I need to ask for updated permission set for Release Updates, but unsure if I need to do the same for Service Updates. If it is dependent on if the Service Update affects that particular area the LTU covers, is there an easy way to check to identify this?

Dear IFS Experts, We are currently upgrading two IFS customers: one from IFS 9 to IFS Cloud and the other from IFS 10 to IFS Cloud. Both customers are already hosted in the IFS Managed Cloud, and they will continue to be hosted there after upgrading to IFS Cloud. This means we cannot upgrade directly on the IFS use place production environment in the Managed Cloud. Instead, we have to use an interim database outside of the Managed Cloud to run the upgrade scripts. This approach requires us to: Export (Data Pump) the current database (based on IFS 9 or IFS 10). Upload the dump file to Azure Storage. Download the dump file from Azure Storage to the interim environment to prepare for the upgrade. Import the dump file to the interim database. Perform the upgrade. Complete all validations. Create an Oracle PDB Archive file as per the IFS Managed Cloud procedure. Upload the PDB Archive file to Azure Storage. Download the PDB Archive file from Azure Storage to the IFS live production environm

Hi In Aurena, is it possible to make a field change colour based on content. We are simply trying to replicate Sticky Notes, which have disappeared in the Cloud, by creating a custom filed, then populating with data from our Apps9 db as part of the upgrade we are undertaking, and highlighting the field in Yellow if it has content. Thanks in advance, Tim

Hello All, We are currently in the process of upgrading from 23.1.11 to 24.2.0 through the Release Update Studio. We successfully uplifted the customizations, and the creation of the topic environment and the sanity build were both successful. However, the delivery creation failed due to errors in the standard objects.We have checked the log file and could see that there are numerous errors related to deploying standard core views/packages, even though the customizations have not impacted this area. We tried to deploy one of the errored standard API from Developer Studio by connecting to DEL env, and it got successfully deployed to database without any error (refer screenshot). Interestingly, the creation of TOPIC environments from the Release Update Studio was successful, and the sanity build performed just before the failed delivery creation also succeeded. Therefore, the delivery creation should have been successful, as it theoretically uses the same code from the repository. We are

We have a customer planning to go-Live on 24 R2 in January 2026. I understand that customer can be 3 release versions behind. By the rime 26R1 come out the customer will be 3 versions behind and they are asking whether they are obliged to 26R1 straight away or are they in breach only when 26R2 comes out? can they hold off the deployment for 26R1 after its release date?

Hi All, If I remember correctly , IFS recommendation is to be in the LATEST Release Update during the implementation phase and get a release update every 12 months after go live.Could anyone let me know the formal ifs link which explains this?

This error appears in the POSTING CONTROL DETAILS window when editing Requisitioner Id. Error while serializing contents. This error happens when the server cannot serialize the data to be sent to the client. A common cause is that one attribute's length exceeds the defined maxlength in the projection. To find more info, open Log Window or Debug Console, refresh and then check Network Tab in DevTools. In the response there can be more detailed information about the exception.

Hi, Has anyone found a way to convert saved searches in IEE client to Aurena Client/IFS Cloud? We are currently working on upgrading IFS 10 UPD 22 version to IFS Cloud. Users are heavily relying on saved searches to manage their daily tasks. At present, there are over 5,000 saved searches across both Base and personal profiles. After the Go-Live, users will undoubtedly be disappointed to find that their saved searches are missing in IFS Cloud. It is surprising that IFS has entirely overlooked upgrading saved searches into IFS Cloud. This topic has been discussed about two years ago, IFS IEE to Aurena Saved Searches | IFS Community I'm re-posting this topic to see if anyone has found a workaround for this issue over the past couple of years. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could shed some light on this matter. Thanks, Thilochana
