Credit Card Exp Year Error 24R2

When editing a Customer Credit Card expiry year field in 24R2, the following error occurs:  IFS Web Version: 24.2.5.20250402090305.0Date: 2025-05-07T12:55:23.326ZCCustomerCrecar/CustomerCrecarPage (server error)Malformed Request.Error details: [{"code":"TYPES_NOT_COMPATIBLE","message":"The types 'Edm.String' and 'Edm.Int16' are not compatible."}]Request Id: 2da75f5a-8c93-44d5-a342-7a43156d7ca7Url: https://domain.com/main/ifsapplications/projection/v1/CCustomerCrecarHandling.svc/Reference_CCreditExpYearsLov?$filter=ExpYear%20eq%202033&$skip=0&$top=2 This did not happen in previous versions. I tested it in two of our environments, one with the most recent update and one with 23R1. The one with 23R1 has no issue. I’d imagine this error occurs because the ExpYear field changes from “int character” in 23R1 to just “int” in 24R2. Has anyone else encountered this issue and is there a workaround?

Share pool issue after installation/Config

Hi! We have experienced problems with the Share pool getting full. The common dominatiore seems to be that this has happened short time after installation. (3 times). This results in tens of thousans of queries stakking up in share pool memory until full ending up with users cant log on.The two last time we experienced this was in the middle of the night with very limited users (if any) in the system. We are wondering if the installation it self or the configuration of screens after installation could cause this issue. We applied IFS Cloud 23R1SU9 this weeked, but experioence the same with SU 6.IFS Web Version: 23.1.9.20240103170013.0Date: 2024-02-19T06:03:52.994Z---------------------------------------------------------------------------<none>/<none> (server error)Database error occurred.

Release Update 24R2- code upliftment issue

Hello,As we began applying the Release Update 24R2, we noticed that a new component, WRKTSK, has been introduced as part of this release. Several APIs (entities, utilities, and enumerations) have been moved from the existing WO component to WRKTSK.We have customized approximately 30 APIs from this list, and now we need to uplift these APIs from WO to WRKTSK. Could you please advise on the best approach to carry out this task?While using the Impact Analyzer tool, we noticed that the results don't provide sufficient comparison details (screenshot attached for reference).Additionally, we are unable to find a way to download all the core files of 24R2 to analyze how the WRKTSK files have impacted our customizations.Has anybody experienced similiar issues? Any help would be greatly appriciated.

LTU Permission sets and Service Updates

We have purchased some LTU licenses and I have uploaded these permission sets into our IFS Cloud environment.  Can anyone tell me if I need to get an updated version of these LTU permission sets for Service Updates?  I am aware I need to ask for updated permission set for Release Updates, but unsure if I need to do the same for Service Updates.  If it is dependent on if the Service Update affects that particular area the LTU covers, is there an easy way to check to identify this?

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

Delivery Creation Failed - 24R2 Release Update

Hello All, We are currently in the process of upgrading from 23.1.11 to 24.2.0 through the Release Update Studio. We successfully uplifted the customizations, and the creation of the topic environment and the sanity build were both successful. However, the delivery creation failed due to errors in the standard objects.We have checked the log file and could see that there are numerous errors related to deploying standard core views/packages, even though the customizations have not impacted this area. We tried to deploy one of the errored standard API from Developer Studio by connecting to DEL env, and it got successfully deployed to database without any error (refer screenshot).Interestingly, the creation of TOPIC environments from the Release Update Studio was successful, and the sanity build performed just before the failed delivery creation also succeeded. Therefore, the delivery creation should have been successful, as it theoretically uses the same code from the repository.We are a
