Upgrades & Updates

Hello,We are trying to upgrade our in house install of v10 to a later version of IFS Cloud which we will also host in house.  We do have a current process that works, however it takes 30+ hours to run.  It currently upgrades 10 to 23r2s4.  Then it cycles through 2 versions of 24 and 3 versions of 25.  It seems that we should be able to skip from 10 to the latest version of cloud that we plan on implementing to shorten the lifecycle.  However, there were some steps provided to us per our customization by IFS for the leap to 23r2s4 and there are some other steps for the initial 24 version related mostly to queueing.  I’m trying to figure out how to include those while going more directly to a later version.  Any help or advice would be appreciated.  Thanks so much.Julie

When we went from IFS 9 to IFS 10, we were required to install a deprecated java print agent in order to use the socket spooler to send .zpl labels to our Zebra printers.  We’re getting ready to upgrade to the latest version of IFS Cloud.What is the solution for .zpl label printing in IFS Cloud?

Hi,In 25R2 , customers who use delivery continuity need to empty all cdbs and move code to relevant ddl/dml files to support online delivery.For customers who upgrade to 25R2 and dont use delivery continuity for now , can still do the same as above targeting future use of the feature and continue with offline installation? As per documentation this is possible as i understood?Best Regards,Wasana

Hello our wonderful IFS Community :)We’re running IFS Cloud 24R1, applying SU20 to a pilot instance for evaluation (going from SU9). We’ve encountered an issue when receiving goods off of a Shop Order, complaining that an Expiration Date is mandatory. I’ve limited things down to something that appears correct in the SU9 version of the API INVENTORY_PART_IN_STOCK_API and a variable check_mandatory_expire_date_ that is referenced in the Check_Insert__ / Check_Common__ procedures.Here’s a sample of the check_mandatory_expire_date_ being set (as opposed to the DEFAULT value for the parameter taking place. Anyone encounter an issue like this when going to SU20? Error message:ORA-20124: Error.NULLVALUE: Field [EXPIRATION_DATE] is mandatory for Inventory Part In Stock and requires a value.INVENTORY_PART_IN_STOCK_API package body snippet:-- Bug SCZ-27258, Start   check_mandatory_expire_date_   BOOLEAN := TRUE;   -- Bug SCZ-2

Currently, we create Customer Orders with lines that detail all of the Services quoted and sold to a Customer. We use Lobby elements to look at the Customer Order Lines based on Wanted Delivery Dates so that when actual date approaches the lines wanted delivery date, we generate a New Requests from a Customer Order. This brings over our Connected Customer and Order No.  and when we get complete the service and approve the Invoice Preview from the request it will add an additional line to the Customer Order it was made from. Our Sales Coordinators now have a Service Sales line that cannot be adjusted from their end, so if pricing is wrong, it has to be done from revoking the Invoice Preview and re approving it through our Service Team. If the pricing is accurate, they take an already existing line from the Customer Order for that specific service and mark it free of charge, then invoice the Customer Order Line for the Service.What I believe would be much more efficient for our

   Hi everyone,We are currently uplifting from IFSAPP 9 to IFS Cloud and I’m converting our Execute Online Custom Event Actions into Workflows.In IFSAPP 9 we had the following Custom Event condition:IF       (       (country_of_origin_ IS NOT NULL)         AND         ( (NVL('&OLD:COUNTRY_OF_ORIGIN','xyzXYZ') <> NVL('&NEW:COUNTRY_OF_ORIGIN','xyzXYZ')) OR           (NVL('&OLD:PRIMARY_VENDOR','xyzXYZ') <> NVL('&NEW:PRIMARY_VENDOR','xyzXYZ')) )         ) THEN I’d like to understand how to model this logic correctly in an IFS Cloud Workflow.Specifically:

Hello, has anyone installed 25R2 SU1 yet? We have leftover Custom Field Views after the update, because views like the RECEIPT_INFO_ALT were removed, but the RECEIPT_INFO_ALT_CFV is still there.Would you consider this a bug or is there a way, besides dropping the view, to get rid of the invalid views with IFS onboard functions? Best RegardsChristian

I am trying to use the IFS Report Migration Tool to convert an rdl layout to an rep layout. I get an error that states a file is missing and to please add the .XSD file to the same directory. The XSD file is in the same directory and I still get this error. I have tried both individual file conversion and the folder conversion.The file names are exactly how they were exported:SomeReport.rdlSomeReportRep.XSDIs there an additional naming convention that needs to be applied to the XSD file?

Just putting some feelers out there to try and understand the current picture from other users. We are trying to upgrade our Build Place to 25R2 (25.2.2) from 25R1 (25.1.2) however have hit a number of snags. Firstly, we were unable to take 25.2.1 due to a notice in the Lifecycle Experience portal that there were issues with certain modules in the solutionset that would cause a failure during installation. We decided to wait until 25.2.2 for this to be resolved.Upon release of 25.2.2 in the past week, we attempted to get the delivery into our Release Studio. Per step 3 of release studio (applying to baseline repo), the build failed. Upon raising a support case for this, it appears there is an issue with certain solutionsets of which we have to now wait until 25.2.3 until it’s resolved.Wondering if anyone else is having a similar experience? Without getting too subjective, we have not had a great experience with getting builds out of the Release St

HiWe are upgrading to Cloud and are in the process of converting Custom Menus to Commands. We are having a problem with custom commands that call ExecuteQuickReport where one of the parameters is a reference field. In IFS app10 when we call a quick report in a custom menu we can map Project_id to CF$_project_id, even if cf$_project_id is a reference field. In Cloud this still works but opens the quick report with the objkey instead.Is there a way around this behavior, how do people handle this when upgradginBest Regards

I'd like to know how to resolve this.・I haven't performed any customizations.・Which log file should I check?・When I check the screen, the Delivery Package status says N/A.
