Company Templates

Hi ddecker,

I believe you can do this using the APP 8  “Export Company Template to File Assistant” wizard. It will let you export required Company templates as .ins files and you can import those files in APP 10 “Import Company Template to File Assistant” wizard. I just verified this in using our internal APP8 & APP10 TEST environments. You can do the same on your TEST instances and check whether everything works as you expected before trying on PROD environment. 

Hope this helps.

I tried that and got the following error…

Hi ddecker,

Did you got this error while Importing or exporting? Can you provide little bit details what have you done to get this error?

I exported from IFS 8 then opened the Import Assistant in IFS 10, selected all of the files exported from IFS 8, I left the suffix field blank, then clicked OK.  The result was the previous error….

Hello, @ddecker 

Have you managed to resolve this issue? I have the same issue currently, and I’m not sure on how to sort it. 

Please can you let me know :) Would appreciate it

Hi @ddecker  , @MishaelAkleker 

Enterp_Comp_Connect_V190_API.crlf_  no longer exists from Apps9 onwards.

We don’t support the scenario of importing templates from different versions because there could be many new fields/features that could have been added between the versions. We believe that is the reason that they have implemented the validation against the component versions. You could see similar comments (“No Data Found”) for other components and LUs as well. The reason for this is again the difference between the component version that has been imported from the template and the version that is installed in the database.  

The recommendation would be to not import the template from the older version to the new version. You can instead create a new template from the version 10 itself from the Create Company Template Assistant using an existing template or a company and then modify it as they want. This could be then used while creating new companies.
