+7Hello All,
I’m looking for the process to add new users to our IFS Cloud account.
So far, I’ve been using the kindness of IFS staff to ‘back-door’ these requests, but as we use the system more, I want a well-documented process for this.
Thanks all. Glad to be part of this community.

Hi
Welcome to the IFS Community good to have you here.
I wanted to clarify so we are not talking at crossed-purposes.
There are 3 primary user Accounts in the context of IFS Cloud so I want to ensure we are talking about the right set of users.
Use Place User Accounts - These are the users who will actually work in your IFS Cloud solution. Your IFS system Administrator is able to create these and you are not dependant on IFS here. Details on setting up these users are covered in docs.ifs.com here
Build Place User Accounts - (I suspect this is what you mean?) These are users that are involved in developing and tailoring your solution, testing any changes you make to the solution or deploying those changes from the Build Place to the Use Place. Once the user accounts are created you are able to assign roles to these users dependant on the tasks they need to perform. These details are covered here please see the section titled “Grant Access to Build Place” note that this activity can only be setup by an existing user who has been assigned the Build Place Admin role via the Service Center portal
I can see that you and two of your colleagues already have this role assigned so you should be able to access the user management form as per the instructions referenced above in the documentation.
Service Center Portal User Accounts - These are for users who need to access support or cloud services or raise a service request with IFS. The Service Center portal also provides access to our Knowledge database. To request access to the Service Center you can follow the steps detailed in this guide. You will need your unique Customer ID which will ahve been set to you in your IFS Cloud Welcome e-mail and IFS Cloud Welcome Pack. Let me know if you do not have this and I can message you directly.
As mentioned by the previous respondent docs.ifs.com is where you can find all of the documentation for IFS Cloud and there is a comprehensive library of courses at academy.ifs.com as a broad starting point I can recommend our free to access getting started course details here
Let me know if I’ve misunderstood or if you have any challenges with any of the above info and I’ll be happy to help

+7Perfect!!
How do I get to the solution manager?
If it hasn’t been assigned to me yet, how do I get access?
+7Where are you when you type that in?
I don’t recognize the screen.
+7Do I need VPN setup before I’m able to see this?
+14Where are you when you type that in?
I don’t recognize the screen.
That is in the application URL once you have gained access. As @
ADMCUK is an employee, I will defer to him or your IFS rep to assist you.

+10Hi
You should be able to find the URLs to access your Use Place environments in your IFS Cloud Welcome e-mail. (Let me know if you need this to be resent)
If you haven't yet set up users in any of these environments then you will first need to login with the Initial Admin password, there are details on how to retrieve these from the Support Portal/Service Center also included in the welcome e-mail.
The guide here may also be useful to you refer to specifically steps 1&3.
Once you are logged into one of your Use Place environments as IFSAdmin you can then start setting up User Accounts as per the earlier guidance.
If you are unfamiliar with navigating the IFS Cloud Aurena Client then the guide here may be helpfiul to get you started once you are in.
I hope this helps but please let us know how you get on.
+7Hi
please see the attached screen shot.
I’ve activated our CNF environment, but I’m stuck here.
+10Hi
A couple of things here.
1. It looks like you have not yet configured the mode of implementation see step 5 of the getting started guide here
This step is also covered in more detail in the documentation here
2. In order to do that you or another user will need to be assigned the Technician role using the IFS Cloud Build Place User Management form in the Service Center. See the section on Grant or Revoke access to Build Place here
+7Thanks!
I’ll look at it this morning.
I finally figured out on Friday the correct UserName/Password to get into our CFG instance.
Progress! :-)

Buildplace configuration of implementation mode started by rfedorchuk@saskpower.com at Monday, Nov 7, 2022 at 03:49:51 PM (UTC).
The Buildplace activation and configuration of implementation mode will take approximately 6 to 8 hours to complete.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction… almost there!
