Upgrades & Updates

When can we expect to see the functionality changes in Cloud21R1?

As part of the upgrade from IFS 10 to IFS Cloud 25R2, we have to manually add hundreds of custom fields to various pages and list views manually. For each Logical Unit, open the Page designer for the Page and click + add the field, change the label, go up again , click + and repeat. Then for that LU, repeat the same process for the List page. We understand this is a one time (painful) process. At a minimum, IFS should provide a way to add all the custom fields in one go to a specific context on a given Page or List.Ideally, we should be able to select the required attributes from the Custom Attributes page, enter the context name and they should be added to that context in one go. Then we can use Page Designer to edit as needed. Is there a better way to do this than the one by one approach?  

There used to be an option called Deferred Enable when making custom commands to trigger workflows for several selected rows at the same time. It looks as it has been removed in 25R2SU8 (old picture 25R2SU2) (New picture 25R2SU8)is there a way to get the same functionality in 25R2SU8?? 

Are there any plans to support IFS Cloud on newer Ubuntu versions?  We’re currently running 24r2.14 on 22.04.5 and are planning to go to 26r2 early next year. is 26r2 planned to be supported on on Ubuntu 22.04.5? Our Linux/Unix security folks are asking if we can move to a newer version of Ubuntu?Canonical appears to be supporting 22.04 until at least 2027 unless extended support is purchased. Would appreciate any comments.

in earlier versions of IFS cloud, when printing a report; for instance Customer Ledger Open Items. The data was stored in cust_open_item_rep, which could be accessed via Quick Report and hence be exported to excel.These views are empty when printing reports in 25R2, are the information stored elsewhere now? 

We are about to begin our implementation journey to IFS Cloud. Does anyone know where I can find IFS’ detailed documentation methodology (phases, detailed definitions...)?

Hi, I’m coming to you because I would like to upgrade an unfinished release update branch 25R2SU2 to 26R1SU2. A delivery 25R2SU2 was created and applicated on a use place environment.The master branch is actually on 25R1SU8 and I don’t want to modify it.On build studio I ran an impact analysis and now I would like to request the release update, but this command/button isn’t visible on my portal.Is this because my release update environment hasn't been finalized, a permissions issue, or some other reason ? Do you think I should delete my unfinished branch release update and begin a new with 26R1 ?I follow this documentation https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/ale/020_lifecycle/080_release_update_studio/020_request_release_update/010_create_sales_quotation/ but I’m actually limit.If you have a solution, I'll take it!

In times when I worked for IFS myself (now I am with a customer) there used to be a Master Data spreadsheet that helped as a template to start digging into what master data have to be looked at in each functional area and also to assign responsibilities in the organisation. Is there still something out there?

Hi Team, I have isntalled the IFS cloud 26R1 but after logingn screen is coiming as blank/empty . Any one faced this issue before? RegardsSuraj

MASTER ARTICLE What is The Update Release Schedule and Release Details? | IFS Community in this article the schedule was updated only upto 2025.  Can you please provide me the schedule for further updates ?

Hi IFS team,We support a client currently running IFS Cloud 24R2. Per the Support Policy (Continuous Support Model), 24R2 will lose Current Release status once 26R2 goes GA, since only the latest Release plus the three previous ones are supported at any time. This would end Service Updates and support for 24R2.Could you confirm:1. The planned/confirmed GA date for IFS Cloud 26R22. The exact date 24R2 will exit Current Release status and stop receiving Service Updates3. Whether a formal retirement notice for 24R2 has already been posted on Community (per the 12-month advance notice commitment in the Support Policy)This will help us plan our client's upgrade timeline. Thanks in advance.

Hi all,We're planning an IFS Cloud upgrade from 24R2.2 to 26R1, skipping 25R1 and 25R2 as intermediate go-lives.Could someone confirm:1. Can the technical Release Update in Release Update Studio/Build Place be executed directly from 24R2.2 to 26R1 in one operation, or does it need to run sequentially through 25R1 and 25R2 first?2. If sequential, does each intermediate release update need to be fully completed (and environment stable) before starting the next, or can they be chained back-to-back without a separate go-live at each stage?3. Beyond the individual release notes, are there known issues specific to multi-release jumps we should plan for — e.g., EBR/database compliance prep, IFS Connect configuration resets, or custom lobby/report regressions?Any guidance from partners or customers who've done a similar multi-release upgrade would be very helpful.Thanks!

As the IFS system administrator, I am reaching out to seek clarification regarding the possibility and requirements for upgrading our Oracle Database from version 19.26.0.0 to 19.27.0.0 or 19.29

I’m currently testing the 25R2 SU 4 update, and I need to raise a serious concern from a user perspective.One of the changes introduced — the new color scheme for conditional formatting in tables — is extremely problematic, especially in dark mode. The colors are now so similar that they’re practically indistinguishable. This completely defeats the purpose of conditional formatting, which is supposed to help users quickly identify important information at a glance.Frankly, this change feels like it wasn’t properly tested in real-world scenarios. If it had been tested in dark mode even once, this issue would have been immediately obvious. For users who rely on dark mode daily, this isn’t just an inconvenience — it actively disrupts workflows and increases the risk of missing critical data.

HiCurrently, we are running IFS Applications 10 UPD24 with Oracle Database 19.8. We are also using Crystal Reports, Touch Apps services, and several additional utilities. Our current operating system is Windows Server 2016.We are planning to upgrade the server operating system to Windows Server 2022. Could you kindly confirm whether Windows Server 2022 is fully supported for IFS Applications 10 UPD24, including Crystal Reports, Touch Apps services, related utilities, and Oracle Database 19.8?

Currently, when designing reports in Report Studio, we require a font that supports multiple languages, including Thai, Vietnamese, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese. In previous environments, Arial Unicode MS has been the preferred font because it provides broad multilingual character support.However, in IFS Cloud 25.1.3, Arial Unicode MS is not available in Report Studio, even after the font has been installed on the Report Server.which font or approach is recommended to configure a single font that supports all required languages, similar to Arial Unicode MS, without upgrading to IFS Cloud 25.2. Alternatively, is it possible to achieve the same result by using the Font Mapping configuration in IFS?

Hi all,Upgrading a remote deployment from 24R1 to 25R2 SU7 (25.2.7), Oracle 19c, standard IFS-CLOUD-MANUFACTURING solution set, no customizations.dbinstaller runs through the full cycle (kill/prepare/apply/import/cutover/cleanup) and reports success, but PROJECTION_CONFIG_ENTITY_API package body is left invalid:Line 292: PLS-00323: subprogram or cursor 'VALIDATE_ENTITY_LUS_INSTALLED' is declared in a package specification and must be defined in the package bodyLine 312: PLS-00323: subprogram or cursor 'VALIDATE_PROJ_CONFIG_ENTITIES_' is declared in a package specification and must be defined in the package bodySpec is VALID, so it looks like the shipped body just doesn't implement these two functions.

Hello,I write to advise that since the company I work for has upgraded to 25R1 SU9 - our users who are serving in a managerial role, where they need to authorize time of personnel who report to them - find themselves unable to authorize employee time entries via the Quick Time Authorization screen.I have established that the likely reason for this is that our permission sets that previously had full rights to projection: QuickTImeAuthorizationHandlingnow have only partial / custom access level.My intention is to go through our internal processes to obtain authorization manually regrant the new, but not yet projection action grants.For our management to be able to make an informed decision regarding what projection action grants and entity action grants should sensibly be granted - it would be helpful to understand exactly what each projection action for QuickTimeAuthorizationHandling actually does.Action names obviously need to be a sensible length, however sometimes a short name - eve

Can someone point me in the direction of finding the 26R1 Product Catalog please?

HiI’m interested to have an understanding of the everyday life after the move to Cloud version and how you keep up with the IFS releases and upgrades.Many customers seems to go the “update once a year” route to get to the latest release. Much depends of course of the scope you are using the platform for and how are the borders of each customer’s ICT systems set and integrated with each other.Our IFS scope is pretty basic, mostly finance/ERP with purchasing and project related activities and HR master system, adn we have just moved from Apps9 to 10.I’m interested of you who have already moved from different Apps-versions to Cloud or even you who have moved directly from other system to IFS Cloud, and your views about the adaptation to the new everyday life.What has changed in areas of the amount of IFS/partner support needed, the amount of your own work needed to keep up with the releases and even the spend changes for doing all of this.I’m having doubts we can keep it running efficient

Hello,Our customer has a modification to Identify Serials with Serial Scan, but the scan performance is limited due to the single processing of each scanned barcode.In 26R1 there is a new functionality to improve the performance by deferring serial validation until the entire list is saved.The customer is eager to see the performance with the new functionality and if the new functionality is working with the already implemented modification (or at least with slight changes, without having to redesign the whole modification).As it seems to be impossible to test this process on a reference environment as we are not able to connect scanners, we are searching for other options.So what came in our mind is to start the Release Update Studio and process until we can create at least a topic environment to then be able to test the functionality's performance and how it interacts with the existing modification.But if the performance is not that better as customer expects it to be, or if the inte
