Support & Services FAQs and Help

Hi all,I would like to retrieve the login history records for users.I've gone through some discussions in this community but haven't been able to figure it out yet.I've already  set up in the window "Set History Log", but I'm unsure how to access the records.I want to know where I can find the records after completing the setup? or I need to set in other window?

Hi. Changes this big should not be hidden inside periodical maintenance notifications. This change in email usage has a great possibility to do massive harm in the capabilities for communication between the vendor and customer. In our case we have a light (and sufficient) email-integration in use between our own and IFS’ ticket portals. Now it’s unclear if this will work from now on. It is vital to have it working. Will get back to this after talking about it  in more detail with our IFS consultant.

Is there a place to learn more information on IFS besides the Academy and Help Pages? The Academy seems lacking in basic how to use while the help pages are vague. They don’t show examples or basic tutorials.  Thanks!

Is anyone else having issues logging into the Customer Portal? I ran into the below error last week, reset my password and was good. I’m getting the same error, changed my password again and I still can’t log in. This has been going on for the past 3 weeks or so.  

Is there a field or step in IFS to link two customers.Example: Customer A sold to customer B. The customer B purchased all of the assets for the equipment sold to Company A. We need to track the sales of Customer A for warranty and configurations of products sold.

Not sure if this is the correct sub forum to post this question. If not, kindly advise me what’s the correct sub forum. We try to open case attachments from the old [closed] IFS cases that we reported in the past. Seems it’s not possible. Not just me, all my colleagues I tested the issue seem to have it. It would be interesting to know if other customers also face the same issue.Is this an intentional restriction from the IFS side?

If "IAM Session and Tokens Configuration" "Sessions" and "Session Idle" of IFSCloud are changed to "62Minutes" and "Session Max" to "64Minutes"  logging in from 1, "Session Idle" is "62Minutes" and "Session Max" is "64Minutes" for logging in from 1, but they are not relevant for logging in from 2. Is the recognition correct?In the article "KB0065296", the following is described as "SSO_" as in "SSO_SESSION", but I would like to confirm that it has nothing to do with logging in from 2. "KB0065296"IFS Product - Not possible to alter the system parameter "Time a session is allowed to be idle before it expires"SSO_SESSION_IDLE - Time a session is allowed to be idle before it expires.SSO_SESSION_MAX - Max time before a session is expired. 

The following URL states: [Any action an Administrator performs within IAM can be recorded for auditing purposes.]https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/24r2/030_administration/010_security/040_iam_settings/080_authentication_auditing/030_auditing_events/We need to explain AdminEvents logs to customers, but there is no clear explanation.Customers cannot understand AdminEvents logs.[Confirmation Point 1]Does “Administrator” refer to a specific account in the Users function?Example: IFSADMIN[Confirmation Point 2]Does “Administrator” refer to an account possessing the permissionset: FND_ADMIN in the Users function?[Confirmation Point 3]Does the AdminEvents log record information identifying the executing account?Best Regards.

We currently have a few users that are not able to launch IFS Enterprise Explorer.When they try to open the application it directly crash, this can be found in the event viewer. What we currently can do and solve the problem on 80% of the time is remove the 2.0 folder and restart the system. The only problem is that is will work for a few days.Currently we have 1 user where this solution isn’t working. There is no way to start IFS anymore.When launching from a Inprivate window it will download IFS but afterwards it will crash again.I also tried launching it from another Windows account on this laptop and this is also not working. So this should mean the problem is not in the 2.0 folder.

The old IFS Portal and the Customer Engagement Centers are gone.I cannot find any of my previous cases in the new portal and when I try to open a case I can only open it for IFS Cloud.- I have IFS7.5 and IFS8.0 systems with cases.I tried to open a case for this issue but none of the drop downs apply and it won’t let me leave them blank.   

In IFS Academy, what is the most suitable training to master and manage the projections for access rights?

I am currently running the support desk for our IFS Apps 9 application, servicing over 350 full license users. Am struggling a bit to keep up with demand for usual service items, permission sets, user amendments, general functionality questions alongside a backlog of change requests (Some large, some not so big) alongside Projects, and a potential upgrade. I also have a number of integrations that always require supportI have an analyst, and a developer who helps from time to time but is dedicated to the business. We have a small technical team that look after the on-prem servers, but thats about it. What size teams are typical for similar businesses? We use the HR with health and safety, SFWB, Finance, Service, Relationship Management, Supply chain  to mention a few along with a fair amount of config. We have a small pot of funds to support configurations that are out of my knowledge base and some functional support. Its a fair amount, and I am approaching the business leads for more
