Database read only usage

Hello,Our company switched from using IFS V9 to V10. The V9 version is still open and accessible. When we want to use the database as read only, IFS gives the error I added. Is it not possible to use IFS with a read only database?"Failed executing statement (ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1ORA-16000: database or pluggable database open for read-only accessORA-06512: at "VERIDATA.LOG_ERRORS_PROC", line 17ORA-06512: at line 2ORA-16000: database or pluggable database open for read-only accessORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_MONITOR", line 69ORA-06512: at "IFSAPP.LOGIN_SYS", line 127ORA-06512: at "IFSAPP.LOGIN_SYS", line 84ORA-06512: at line 1)ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1ORA-16000: database or pluggable database open for read-only accessORA-06512: at "VERIDATA.LOG_ERRORS_PROC", line 17ORA-06512: at line 2ORA-16000: database or pluggable database open for read-only accessORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_MONITOR", line 69ORA-06512: at "IFSAPP.LOGIN_SYS", line 127ORA-065

Impact of Correcting Time on IFSCloud Database Server While Environment is Running

We have discovered that our IFSCloud database server is currently running 1 hour behind the local time, resulting in a 1-hour time difference between the server and the local time.I would like to know if adjusting the server time while the environment is up and running could cause any issues. Has anyone encountered this situation before? If so, what precautions should we take when correcting the server time to avoid any potential impact on the system or database performance?Any insights or best practices would be greatly appreciated!

backup after upgrading to version

Jak zachowa się system, jeśli po aktualizacji do wersji 24R1 zrobimy kopię zapasową z dnia, w którym mieliśmy wersję 23R2. Czy wersja 23R2 zostanie przywrócona?

IFS Report Studio upgrades

Hi,I’m seeking some guidance on Report Studio. This looks like a good tool for working with report layouts within IFS Cloud. I have picked up that there might be some limitations when working with custom fields and possibly with printing of these .rep reports. Can anyone share their experience on these limitations?Also, I checked the 24R2 and 25R1 Roadmap and do not see Report Studio mentioned.  Should we expect updates to the Report Studio functionality in upcoming Releases and/or Service Updates?Thanks

In 24.1 DISTINCT no longer working in column definition of datasources

Hello all,We recently upgraded from 22.2.14 to 24.1.2.Our lobby datasources no longer work with a ‘DISTINCT’ in the column definition. They worked fine in 22R2. I tried adding a DISTINCT to a simple standard IFS datasource and it also did not work. All of the Queries seem to work fine in SQLDevelopper.Is DISTINCT no longer supported in datasource column definitions, or does it have to be implemented in a certain way? If so, what is the good implimentation method?Error message: Could not preview element. Make sure datasource is configured correctly and view is existing.Sample attached, but it could be any datasource.

Quick Reports RMB Export to Excel in IFS10 UPD22

We updated our IFS PROD environment to IFS v10, UPD 22 (from UPD 12). A user this morning reported that in Quick Reports - once you've queried/populated a report, and if you RMB on the lines and choose "Export to Excel", that option does not work. All it does is bring up the query window again.  After a report populates (any report), and I RMB on the line items and choose "Export to Excel", it just brings up the query window again. The user reported that this functionality was working prior to the update to UPD22. We are aware of the SQL limitation mentioned in the IFS Community Forum, and checked the Query. For the report we checked (and all other reports) it does start with SELECT. We've found that you can successfully use the RMB > Export to Excel from the Quick Reports top folder (before viewing the report in IFS), but that it will not work from within the report - if you view the report in IFS first, then RMB on the line items > Export to Excel. It will just reopen the query

UPD Update changing Textbox Size

We recently update a SND and PPR (both non production) instances of IFS Apps 10 UPD 13 to 22. In both instances our textboxes on the Materials Tab of Prepare Work Order have altered and we have found no way to shrink them back to normal height for textboxes. Has anyone had this sort of issue or have a way to deal with it?Production (UPD 13): SND/PPR (UPD 22):

Where can I find the overview of the changes that are included in a delivery?

Hello IFS,What is the process when a delivery/SU/RU is received from IFS and it contains changes to e.g. a DB field where the existing DB field is removed and replaced by a NEW DB field with a DIFFERENT name?This is causing major headaches to try to backtrack as the old field might have been used in existing events, BPA (workflows), print-out reports, 3rd party work flows and Power Bi reports that will start to fail when the OLD DB field is no longer availabe.How are other customers handling this?Is there a change log available from IFS’s side with these details?Br Hans

Upgrade IFS from earlier version to IFS cloud || Reduce Time for Technical Upgrade

Dear IFS Experts, We are currently upgrading two IFS customers: one from IFS 9 to IFS Cloud and the other from IFS 10 to IFS Cloud. Both customers are already hosted in the IFS Managed Cloud, and they will continue to be hosted there after upgrading to IFS Cloud. This means we cannot upgrade directly on the IFS use place production environment in the Managed Cloud. Instead, we have to use an interim database outside of the Managed Cloud to run the upgrade scripts. This approach requires us to: Export (Data Pump) the current database (based on IFS 9 or IFS 10). Upload the dump file to Azure Storage. Download the dump file from Azure Storage to the interim environment to prepare for the upgrade. Import the dump file to the interim database. Perform the upgrade. Complete all validations. Create an Oracle PDB Archive file as per the IFS Managed Cloud procedure. Upload the PDB Archive file to Azure Storage. Download the PDB Archive file from Azure Storage to the IFS live production environm

Change of Host IP Address

Due to internal network restructuring, the Windows host of our on-premise IFS Apps 10 is going to be having a change of IP address.With the obvious DNS updates catered for already, will changing the IP address of the host affect the running of any of our IFS software? Is there a known recommended safe documented way to do this ensuring that the IFS software doesn’t break?Thanks - Jon
