HiWe are working on setting up a new FTP server for IFS Apps 10 Document Management but looking for guidance on the setup/config requirements for the server.if there is a document that can be shared even better, as the IFS help files don’t go into this level of detail. Some questions below:Does IFS support using an SMB share from windows? If yes, are there any steps we need to take to ensure this works correctly? If the answer to the above is no. Does the FTP Server have to be hosted on Linux or can it be on windows? Does IFS communicate via SFTP or just FTP? Can the FTP server be ring-fenced in terms of network so only the IFS server can access it? Reducing any security concerns for that server. If FTP is required, are there any 3rd party FTP services that are unsupported, for example, winscp or filezilla? Thanks in advanceShaun

Hi,We are trying to push Use Single Sign-on flag ticked by default for all users but cannot see any entries in the base profile for this. Is there a IFS base profile entry, browser settings or window registry where we can use to set this flag to TRUE by default ?

Dear Community!One of the typical questions arising from time to time is how to request installation files for a Project. This one is related to a customer trying to get from IFS Applications 7.5 to IFS Cloud.That task has to be performed in two steps. The steps are clear.Install a database import the dataupgrade using build_home scriptsto go from 7.5 to 8, 9 or 10 as an example. From there, we can go to cloud based on the technical documentation. Now, I need to know how to request a build_home for an upgrade from 7.5.Do I have to create a case? Whom to address this topic directly?Is there any process documentation on that? I have found non internally. Your assistance is highly appreciated.I guess, we have to create specific LCS cases to request those installation files.  When we have a newer version of IFS installed, than, we can request the rest by using the cloud build place. But the step in between is not clear. Kind regards and thanksTechnical Toby

Hi all,Is there anyway to add a note against Purchase Req Lines in a Planned state? There is a note text field but this is wiped once MRP runs at the end of each day. We considered sticky notes but then a note has to be added against each Purchase Req (not viable). This will prevent demand being created where it’s not required or notify other team members a purchase req is currently being queried. Would appreciate any suggestions!Thanks,Robert
