Hello, I have two questions around setting up print servers for a cloud hosted IFS apps 10 Aurena only deployment.IFS recommends setting up print servers “as close to the physical printers as possible”. I see this as an outdated strategy. Many organizations have centralized data centers and/or cloud infrastructure and are actively trying to reduce the number of servers installed at locations, including print servers. There are low latency, high bandwidth connections that can overcome issues of the past. So, what are the actual needs for bandwidth, latency or other technical specifications to make IFS print servers work effectively so I can decide whether they actually need to be on site or in our data center?Second question, does IFS support Azure Universal Print, which is ultimately where we’re going in our infrastructure.Thanks.  

We have a custom API in IFS Cloud. We also have a website that uses an Apache server and is connected to IFS.After we make changes to the custom API, the API commits successfully and does not give any error. However, the website shows an error. The error message is very general.After we update the API in the evening, the website gives an error the next morning. During the day, the problem fixes itself.Error Message :ChatGPT said it might be a cache problem. It suggested the following code:BEGINFnd_Cache_API.Clear_All;END;It also suggested restarting Apache, because Apache or the middleware may cache the database connection pool. Old prepared statements may remain.When we restart, unfortunately the error still continues.Is there a script that can fix the error immediately?Has anyone experienced a situation like this before?How can we solve this problem? 

Hello,We are trying to install the ifs-monitoring helm chart.  In our test system with one middle tier server, it works great.  We run .\main.ps1 -resource 'MONITORING', wait for the pods to start, and we can log in to Kibana and Grafana.  However, our integration and production systems use high availability with three middle tier servers, and on those systems it’s not working.  The ifs-monitoring pre-install-kibana pod fails to start with this error:Creating a new Elasticsearch token for KibanaCleaning previous tokenDELETE undefined failed: connect ECONNREFUSED 10.152.183.247:9200Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 10.152.183.247:9200 at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (node:net:1606:16) { errno: -111, code: 'ECONNREFUSED', syscall: 'connect', address: '10.152.183.247', port: 9200}And the ifs-monitoring fluentd pod fails with this error:[38;5;6mfluentd [38;5;5m13:37:10.74 [0m[38;5;6mfluentd [38;5;5m13:37:10.74 [0m[1mWelcome to the Bitnami fluentd container[0m[38;5;6mfluen

Good Afternoon,We’re testing the Azure Application Gateway Waf_v2 in our test environment and have hit an issue. IFS EE, Touchapps, BR reports etc all seem to work correctly without any issues. However, when I login to IFS Aurena using my credentials I can see the splash page and the web app however, no core data seems to load? I’ve checked the IFS Aurena Lobbies and these seem to populate with data however, when I click through, it navigates but returns no data.IFS link from local machine web page: One final thing, if I log into the IFS hosted VM and connect onto Aurena using our URL I can view all data correctly so i don’t think it’s permissions etc based. IFS VM payslips web page:ThanksR

According to CBP our application baseline version is 24.2.0. However if I look in Setting screen, the Application Service update is 24.2.0 but the Framework service update is version 24.2.5. How can this difference happen and what is the impact? 

When updating any environment with some sort of delivery, we automatically get the latest Framework applied to the environment - no possibility to say yes or no.Where can we find what corrections/changes that are included in each framework update?Application corrections we can find for each release update page, for example 25.1: IFS Cloud 25R1 Service Updates - Fixed Issues & Release Approvals 19-February-2026 | IFS Community

We implemented a modification where triggering an action creates a background job executed by the IFSAPP user to update certain data.We also have an event configured to prevent modifications to this data when the user is IFSAPP. How can we adjust this event so that it is not triggered when the user is IFSAPP and the action is executed through a background job? is it possible? Thank you in advance DECLAREcf$_userid VARCHAR2(100);BEGIN -- Récupérer l'utilisateur IFS cf$_userid := ifsapp.fnd_session_api.get_fnd_user(); -- Interdire l'utilisateur IFSAPP IF cf$_userid = 'IFSAPP' THEN Error_sys.Appl_General( 'SepaPaymentAddress', 'IFSAPPMODIFYRIB: IFSAPP n''est pas autorisé à modifier les RIBs' ); END IF;END;  

I’ve got a rather generic question. I do write quite a bit of code myself. One example: We improved the performance of the part availability planning by moving some code from Order_Supply_Demand_API.Calc_Detail_Planning to Generate_Availability_Snapshot. The main culprit is that there’s a cursor get_previous_record_sum that fetches all previous records for every record there is. The first records fetches one more record, the record 1000 fetches 1000 records. It works rather well, data is loaded much quicker.To another developer, I can easily show how this improves the performance.My question: Has anyone reported such issues to IFS? In our experience, we always get in touch with a first level supporter who does not understand the details of the code and asks for a use case they can reproduce. We tried that before, it usually takes a lot of time trying to explain a technical problem in a non technical way. It’s understandable, you don’t want your core developers taking care of customer t

Hi Team,I am facing some strange issue. We have created some custom projection in IFS Developer Studio with below query, this query is working and returning set of data in Oracle SQL Developer as well as in IFS Developer studio execte command window, where as same is not returning any data through postman call, it always returns empty object array.To narrow down the problem, we created one more projection in IFS 10 version with same query, it is working fine and able to see the result in Postman.Any help is much helpful to resolve the issue. SELECT DISTINCT NVL(B.CUSTOMER_ID,A.IDENTITY) AS Account_Code, B.CUSTOMER_ID,A.IDENTITY,IIN.Customer_ID,NVL(B.NAME,(SELECT NAME FROM CUSTOMER_INFO WHERE CUSTOMER_ID = A.IDENTITY)) AS Account_Name, 'TEST' AS Account_Code_Type, '1' AS Company_ID, '1' AS Master_Company, 0 AS Is_Service_Only, NVL(B.CUSTOMER_ID,A.IDENTITY) AS Intrefcode, 0 AS Is_Private_Label, B.ADDRESS_ID AS Address_Id, B.ADDRESS_TYPE_CODE AS Address_Type_Code, B.ADDRESS1 AS Address1, 

Can we create an excel output from Order report? If yes, how is this achieved.

Hi All, Any Idea on this? Upgrading from 22R2 to 25R2I removed .cdb and added Ddlsource and moved the code. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SET SERVEROUTPUT ON-- ***** EXT_WAGE_TRANSACTION_RTB Start *****DECLARE   rtb_name_  VARCHAR2(34) := Database_SYS.Get_Rtb_Name#('EXT_WAGE_TRANSACTION_TAB');   columns_    Database_SYS.ColumnTabType;   column_     Database_SYS.ColRec;BEGIN   Database_SYS.Reset_Column_Table#(columns_);   Database_SYS.Set_Table_Column#(columns_, 'C_XXX_XXX', 'VARCHAR2(20)', 'Y');   Database_SYS.Create_Or_Extend_Real_Table#(rtb_name_ , columns_, '&IFSAPP_DATA', NULL, TRUE);END;/-- ***** EXT_WAGE_TRANSACTION_RTB End *****SET SERVEROUTPUT OFF-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The mentioned error is during the branch build.  [generateDataba

Hi,Using workflow I was trying to automate the “Receive” functionality present on “My Self-Service Request History” screen. This same functionality is also present on “Register Arrival” screen. I checked in the code of the assistant that pops up when this button is clicked. The assistant populates data in the virtual(s) using an action “InsertSelection” which accepts 2 parameters, first one is of CLOB type. So, I tried to replicate this step into my workflow using the below 3 blocks -First block “Create Temp Lob” is creating a new record in FndTempLobs - Second block “Update Clob Data” is Updating the Lob record created in previous step by passing the ClobData -${Selection} contains the keyref string. This step is not working I believe. Last block “Call InsertSelection” calls the action by passing in the LobId that was generated in the first block. After the 2nd block, I get the error from the 3rd block - The three blocks are created in the same way the network calls are invoked upon c

Hello, I am attempting to create an arrival to receive a Purchase Order line via REST API. I am inspecting the endpoint calls that Aurena makes during the process, but i’m unable to figure out which call is actually performing the receipt. I see calls to CreateReceiptSet but the payload doesnt include the information from the arrival line (PO #, Line, Etc). I also see CreateArrivalReceipt, but it only uses what i assume is the OBJKEY that is returned from CreateReceiptSet. I know this is a little tricky because an assistant is involved, but I cant seem to make sense of the calls that are happening. Any tips for figuring out how this assistant works? 

We have a customer on IFS Cloud 24R2 and have a custom IAL defined with Manual Update and Copy All Data replication type in PROD.  The last replication job did not complete successfully, it ran for around 6 hours and it appears the Oracle session was terminated, and the job was subsequently set to Error status by the light cleanup process with the following message:This background job was set to state Error because the executing Oracle process was killed (detected by cleanup process at 2026-02-21-01.18.27 due to no session being found).After four days, customer has re-attempted to retry the manual replication. However, it still fails with the below error:Replication is in progress. New replication will not be initiated. ORA-20105: IalObject.REPLICATIONINPROIs there a safe way to handle this situation from either the database or application side?In App10, we could use the IAL configuration screen to RMB > Reset Failed Executions, but this option doesn’t seem to exist in IFS Cloud.

All,How do I get the following field onto another page so that it can be edited too.The field is in the view purchase_receipt and is the finally_invoiced_date. This field is seen on the Porcurement - Receipt - Receipt page - Closed DateI want this to be on the Procurement - Receipt - Receipts page. However when I go into page designer the field is not there to choose from and as I want to modify the data in this field I’m stumped as to the best way to do this. Help here would be appreciated.The reason I need to have this field in an easy to see view is that we have a few customers who supply ourselves with free issue parts that we will never match to an invoice as we do not receive an invoice, however we do have to give our customer a PO for scheduling stock into ourselves, so to fully close and tidy up a date needs to be in this field.If there is a better way of doing this now in the system please advise as I’m happy to look at our set up also. Thanks Sarah

IFS Cloud 24.2.14In our ongoing work to improve performance and be less sensitive to disruptions, we note that on the top list for "SQL ordered by Elapsed Time", during a working day this sql is in fifth place (10th place for "SQL ordered by CPU Time)":sql_i: cbsvk03jynz6ssql: BEGIN :1 := Login_SYS.Init_Odp_Session_(:2 , :3 , :4 , :5 , :6 , :7 , :8 , :9 , :10 , :11 , :12 , :13 , :14 , :15 , :16 ); END;We are wondering if the amount of executions that are made is reasonable. For example, this sql is executed three times when you open a simple form like System parameters.One execution is very fast, but since there are over 10 million executions during a working day the total time elapsed is between 3 and 4 hours.Anyone with knowledge about this?Can there be an overhead of executions?Regards,Björn

Hello All,I’m looking for a way to merge two cells into one. Is this possible?The reason I’m asking is that when the part description is too long, the text wraps onto another line, which shifts the Part No. down by one line. I need to find a way to prevent this from happening.You can see in the screenshot below that the Part Description is too long, causing it to wrap onto another line, which shifts the Part No. down by one line.Thanks

Hey everyone,We’ve got a requirement to add an address autocomplete feature in IFS Cloud. The idea is to have a field where the user starts typing an address, and as they type, we call Google’s Places Autocomplete API to show suggested addresses. The user should then be able to pick one of the suggestions and save it.Has anyone done something similar before? If so, would love to hear how you approached it. Or if there are any workarounds you’ve used, that’d be great to know too. Just wanted to check here before we start building it out.Thank you in advance for any pointers!

Hi all, We are on 25.1.1 and many users are reporting the web browsers (Edge/Chrome) taking up lots of memory and CPU % with using IFS Cloud. This might be linked to some pages (ex. Shop Order having about 500 material lines), but not in all instances.  Here’s an example from a key user:while loading data And once the data loads, the CPU % idles without memory getting offloaded.TIA

Hi All, Looking to see if anyone else has seen about SSL cert validity trending to a shorter length. We currently are on Apps10 and use IEE in the main, with a few REST endpoints.Does anyone have a strategy to reduce the burden on maintenance windows and automate any of this?

Hi Team, How do we add the cdb information in 25R2 version? Anyone tried this ? we are trying to put these cdbs as ddl files and our topic went through fine but want to know if this is the correct approach Regards,Rakesh

Hi All, I have configured Azure AD authentication for an IFS Cloud customer. During testing, some users are not able to log in as expected and are encountering the following error when attempting to access the application: The only thing I have noticed is that there is no IAM user entry inside the profile, and no entry has been created under the IAM Users page. Have you experienced this kind of issue before?

Hi,The ‘Report Format and Output’ dialog after clicking the RMB option ‘Print Order Confirmation’ in a customer order is working fine in apps10.But in apps 7.5 this does not appear, I was wondering if this was not implemented in apps 7.5 or is there way to enable this option?Thank you in advance! 

Filtering of Custom Attribut Links is not supported. The $filter is missing when a custom field attribute is used as a link (reference), see attachments.Business Impact: This malfunction treats us to work with two tabs and always copy and paste the desired value in the filter line of the new tab. This is a lot of clicking and the userbilty suffers dramatically. Another way out is to have acustom command that takes over the filter in the jump action. Nevertheless it is hard to explain to the user why cartain (standard) links work well whereas others (ustom) surf to the correct page but without filtering the correct element. When does IFS solve this misbehaviour?Thnak you!

Hi all,I have a question regarding the possibilities of BPA. We have a customer that would like to see an informative message if some conditions are met. This means we are going to compare two values and if they are different from each other we want to inform the user of this. In BPA we have the Validate type which can be used to perform a validation. Except when using the “Terminate End Event” in the workflow the workflow will block the user from saving the record as this is an error message. Is there another way to do this validation, but not to show an error message but an informative message? Because we still want to save the change. Since the check is on a custom attribute, I found out that a custom event on the custom field table with online SQL is not working. The Client_Sys.Add_Info is not working in that case. That is the reason we are looking at BPA as a solution.  Kind regards,Michael
