Does IFS Enterprise Explorer have any logs that would show how long a user was logged in for a particular day?

Hi everyone, Still a bit of a newbie on IFS Developer Studio… seeing if I’m missing something obvious. I downloaded the BuildHome from our Build Place with the desire to bring the core files onto my local drive for import into my project.  I selected the “model” directory in the build-home and it set the files to read only and all the components were displayed.  When I go to expand a component, I get the following error:Cannot invoke “org.netbeans.api.project.Project.getLookup()” because “project” is null Cloud version is 26R1SU1Developer Studio 18 (Build 26.2.1308)  

Topic for reporting IFS Developer studio bugs

Hi all,I would like to ask about a behavior change regarding code generation in the recent IFS Developer Studio update.* Developer Studio Version:** IFS Developer Studio 18 (Build 26.2.1308 2026-10-02)* Target File: `XXXX-Cust.entity` (marked as `[r/o]`)* Target Layer: `Cust`**Issue Description:**When running "Generate Code and Deploy" on a customization entity file that has read-only attributes, the execution is blocked with the following error:> `ERROR: Files are in read-only mode. Code generation and deployment are not supported for read-only files.`In previous versions, we were able to run generate code and deploy without issues even when the files were in read-only mode.**Questions:**1. Is this an intended specification change / new validation introduced in the 2026-10-02 release (26.2.1308) to strictly disallow generation on any read-only files?2. Is there any setting or workaround available to bypass this restriction, or is it mandatory now to manually remove the read-only fl

Hi Everyone,We are using IFS Cloud (25R1 and 26R3) and have an integration that sends data to an external REST API through an Application Message using a CONNECT routing rule.When the external API returns an error or the connection fails, the Application Message automatically enters a Retry state and continues attempting to resend the request.I would like to understand if there is a way to prevent automatic retries when an error occurs.Ideally, I would like the Application Message to move directly to a Failed state rather than continuing to retry.A few questions:Is there a configuration setting in IFS Cloud that controls the retry behaviour for outbound REST messages?Can automatic retries be disabled for a specific routing rule or integration without affecting other integrations?Is it possible to configure certain errors to immediately fail while allowing retries for temporary connection issues?Any guidance on where these settings can be configured would be greatly appreciated.Thank yo

Hi All,I’m trying to add a workflow command to execute on multiple records on a List page.I added the command on the List level so it will be visible for multiple selection Attempt 1:Add the key values from the contextResult:WF executed only for the last selected record Then I tried several different variable formats and then this error happens. Error is coming from the client and no server call occurs.Error looks promising but I couldn’t find any documentation regarding how to do it.Can someone guide on how to add command variables for multiple selection of records?Tested in 24.1.4@Lahirumala de Mel

There are a few scenarios where we would want to schedule a workflow to run periodically.One in particular - Where the users have an LTU, they cannot do much with a workflow due to the limitations on the permission set.  The workaround i have to use is to “schedule the BPA”, so that it runs as a different user with high privileges.  As long as we have the LTU concept, we are going to have to do this to solve customer requirements.So, it would be good to have a proper approach to support scheduling a BPA.  Currently we have to mess around setting up a dummy migration job so that we can use the job scheduler there.  This is confusing to customers, looks pretty unprofessional and introduces a lot of baggage such as the need to import/export migration jobs.It would be quite straightforward to enable scheduling a BPA via Scheduled tasks.  The method bpa_sys.register_async_bpa would work fine, but is not considered “schedulable” because the package ends in _sys, not _api.  So it is not possi

Hi everyone,As mentioned in the title, Utility entities that have an EXT layer are marked with a blue icon in Developer Studio. However, when I right-click any of these entities, the "Customize This" option is missing from the context menu.For entities without the blue icon, the option is available, and I can customize them without any issues.This wasn't a problem before, and I was previously able to customize these entities without any issues. I suspect that a recent Developer Studio update may have introduced this behavior, but I couldn't verify it because I wasn't able to find the relevant changelogs.What I've already tried: Refresh Folders from the project root. Clear and Refresh PLSQL File Cache from the project root. Refresh Cache from the Build menu. Clear and Refresh from the Build menu. Verified that the affected Utilities have not been customized previously (no existing CUST layer). Disconnected and reconnected the Build configuration. Unfortunately, none of these s

Dear developers,my goal is to create a list of all background jobs with a status of 'warning' within a week and send this list via email to a user. To achieve this, I wrote an SQL code and put it in a custom event.In this case I don’t need the custom event trigger.Or can I just use a condition in my SQL code?How can I handle it? Thank you in advance.

Hi Team,We are on IFS cloud 25R1, We are creating a work flow action from work tasks, when you click a Send Email button it opens an input with 3 fields - EmailTo, EmailSubject and EMailBody.Currently we are using “String” for email body.The problem we have is that it only allows a single line entry and the moment a user hits enter the email is sent.We Tried changing the eMail body to “Text” instead of String, but when we publish it the field does not even appear. Do you know how we could get this as a multi line field?

Hi all,Does anyone know why this error message:{"errors":[{"code":null,"message":"TraceId : dc76f65b1d29546022461b6d9476f4eb"},{"code":null,"message":"Failed to execute automation. Error in step [Upload PDF - post virtual]: An internal server error occurred. Contact administrator.

Hi everyone,Did anyone experiencing an internal server error while logging into IFS Cloud? It happens randomly even with initial load on IFS Cloud. Sometimes refreshing the page doesn't work. The user needs to restart the browser or navigate back to the startup page and log in again. Is this a cache issue?  We are using Google Chrome. Are there any tricks to get rid of this?Thanks! 

Hi All,Does anyone know how top horizontal bar with name (DEVELOPMENT) appears/sets up?Looks like this only appears in Chrome browser.This is NOT related to Appearance Designer settings or Broadcast messages.  

Hi,We are using Aurena Agent and this gives us possibility to print on physical printers. We can set default printer for logical printers, but is it possible to pre-define physical printer to be default printer and the “default” printer will be filled out in Print Dialog by default?The printer is already defined as default printer on this PC, but it does not help. “No Printout” is filled out in Print Dialog.Can set up Print Dialog so it will “remember” the last used/selected printer?I think PrintDialog “remembered” the last used printer in earlier versions of IFS Cloud (22R1-23R1) but not after the last update (23R2Su5).Br.

We are currently using IFS Cloud 25R1 and are experiencing an issue with an outbound REST PATCH request.I am developing an integration that needs to send a simple PATCH request to a Salesforce endpoint. The PL/SQL block I am using is shown below.DECLARE   headers_       PLSQLAP_Document_API.Document;   url_params_    PLSQLAP_Document_API.Document;   message_id_    NUMBER; salesforce_id_ VARCHAR2(18) := '1111';    payload_       CLOB :=      TO_CLOB('{"ERP_Account_Status__c":"Approved"}');BEGIN   headers_ :=      PLSQLAP_Document_API.New_Document('HEADER_PARAMS');   PLSQLAP_Document_API.Add_Attribute(      headers_,      'Content-Type',      'application/json'   );   PLSQLAP_Document_API.Add_Attribute(      headers_,      'Accept',      'application/json'   );   PLSQLAP_Document_API.Add_Attribute(      headers_,      'X-HTTP-Method-Override',      'PATCH'   );   url_params_ :=      PLSQLAP_Document_API.New_Document('URL_PARAMS');   PLSQLAP_Document_API.Add_Attribute(      url_params_,  

We are currently working on the upgrade from IFS V8 to IFS Cloud 23R2. We have events actions for sending e-mail notification to users with an IFS URL.So, we were forced to update all this navigation URL to be in accordance with Cloud version. Example of an URL added in an event action : https://uat1.ifs.asf.pri/main/ifsapplications/web/page/ChangeRequest/Form;$filter=RequestNo eq $REQUEST_NO$This kind of URL is working smoothly but only for the related environment. The issue we are facing is that as we are on a test environnement and not on the PROD environment, the beginning of the URL is working today but it will not work tomorrow in the PROD environment as it will not be the same. Consequently, to avoid modifications on all events actions containing an URL, we would like if it possible to use a dynamic URL that will change depending on a variable which will be, in our case, the system URL value entered in the system parameters.  Thanks for your help
