After receiving an OOB patch from IFS, I applied the delivered changes into our repository. However, I am currently unable to propagate these changes to the DEV environment, because IFS Developer Studio 18 (Product Version: IFS Developer Studio 18 (Build 18 2026-04-06)) appears to ignore the modified files.
Observed behavior:
- Modified Core
*.viewsand*.plsqlfiles are not taken into account during generation/deployment. - Even after placing the corresponding Core model files into the repository, the changed files are still ignored.
- The code continues to be generated according to the Core files instead of the modified repository content.
- In Project View, the affected files are not shown under the related entity, but only under the Other folder.
Expected behavior:
- Files delivered in the OOB patch and applied to the repository should be recognized by Developer Studio as entity-related files.
- Modified
*.viewsand*.plsqlfiles should be considered during generation/deployment on DEV. - The files should appear under the corresponding entity in Project View, not under Other.
- Generated code should reflect the patched repository content, not the unchanged Core model files.
Impact:
At the moment, we are blocked from applying the OOB fix to the DEV environment, because the delivered changes cannot be deployed correctly.
Could you please clarify:
- why Developer Studio does not recognize these patched files as part of the entity structure,
- why generation still uses Core files instead of the repository changes,
- and what is the correct way to apply/deploy this type of OOB-delivered change on DEV?
