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 *.views and *.plsql files 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 *.views and *.plsql files 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?

Hi ​@InfFilipV 

Can you share the file path of Modified *.views and *.plsql files? Are they residing the same file path of InternalVoucherRow.entity file ?

Hi ​@hamalk,

The paths are visible in the Git diff screenshot, and you are right — I put them in the wrong folder. I even first copied the core versions there from the coreFiles folder, so I made the same mistake twice and copied them from the database folder to the model folder.

Besides me being an idiot, let's blame the OOB patch structure too, since this has just proven that the current flat structure makes it easy to make this kind of mistake.

Thanks!
