Hi,In the page designer, in dont find how to set default value for a custom fields mandatory. its a field with enumeration. thank you KR

   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: How can I compare OLD vs NEW values (e.g., COUNTRY_OF_ORIGIN, PRIMARY_VENDOR)? Is there an equivalent to Oracle’s NVL() function in workflow expressions? What is the recommended approach for handling field change detection in workflows?

Hello, we are trying to find if you can roll an environment back from 25R2 to 25R1 or any other major release in the use place if you wanted to go back? We are unable to find this information docs.ifs.com or knowledge base. And it is possible, can anyone please share steps or document on how to request that.

Hi Team,I’m looking for a complete example of a DDLSOURCE file, as the link in the IFS documentation appears to be broken (404 error):docs.ifs.com/techdocs/25r2/060_development/027_base_server_dev/225_reduced_downtime_delivery/020_code_changes/007_concepts/090_source_code_file/ddlsource_files.mdDuring the 25R2 upgrade, the documentation states that all code from the .cre file should be added to the .ddlsource file. However, when I attempt to deploy, I’m encountering the following error: Thank you, Best Reagrds,Bhanuka

What are the challenges in 25R1?

Hi, In our project we have standard entities with customization. For exemple for this entity file : SupplierInfo-cust.entity"entityname SupplierInfo;component ENTERP;layer Cust;attributes {public CSupplierSync ENUMERATION(FndBoolean) A-IUL;}"cdb file associated for 23r2 is : DECLAREtable_name_ VARCHAR2(30) := 'SUPPLIER_INFO_TAB';columns_ Database_SYS.ColumnTabType;BEGINDatabase_SYS.Reset_Column_Table(columns_);Database_SYS.Set_Table_Column(columns_, 'C_SUPPLIER_SYNC', 'VARCHAR2(20)', 'Y');Database_SYS.Create_Or_Replace_Table(table_name_, columns_, '&IFSAPP_DATA', NULL, TRUE);END; We tried to modify this cdb file, but every Order Environment in 25r2 release upgrade process failed… How do we manage with this cdb file for the 25r2 upgrade ?We read the documentation and Ifs community and each "order env" failed ....We tried with ddlsource file , cdb file, using specific EBR "# function".… without success. Thanks a lot for helping us ! Vincent

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

Hi All,To develop Java transformers executable on IFS Applications 10, does IFS Developer Studio 18 already include everything that is needed, or are additional integrations required? If so, what is missing and where can it be obtained?

Hiwhen IFS release a service update, sometimes face some issues which have later been identified as a bug.Does IFS release a known bug list for each of the releases?thanksGary 

Would you kindly recommend the effect analysis, compatibility, and support issues for the Windows update from 2016 to 2025?Product Version: UPD27

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 Studio or Build Place, especially around

Hello,Does IFS make available a table of IFS Cloud releases organised by month - ideally with a hyperlink to the release notes for said service update.It could look something like this:Release Month 25R2 25R1 24R2 24R1 23R2 23R1 December 2025 SU? SU? SU? SU? SU? SU? January 2026 SU? SU? SU? SU? SU? SU? February 2026 SU? SU? SU? SU? SU? SU?  When there is General Available of a new release (e.g. 26R1) - a new column would be added for said release. Presumably for the first month the logical link would say GA. If a release is End of Life (EOL) then an EOL link to the End of Life announcement could be provided.The reason I ask about this is that:-I personally find it difficult to establish what service updates came out in a given month. Knowing this may be helpful for companies considering whether they A - Upgrade to a later service update for the release they are currently on B - Update to the equivalent service for a more recent relea

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

A Customer is migrating from APPS8 to IFS Cloud. Before migration process, we have some shop order in Apps8 in state “Parked”. All operations aren’t in state “Parked”, depending on what was already done. Could anyone explain the behavior of Shop Order in State Parked.

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. 

Hi All,I tried to request a release update from 25R1 to 25R2, but it failed.Has anyone encountered the same issue?Best regards,Feng  

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

There is no corresponding Assistant page available in Page Designer, so I am not sure how to control this element.Could any expert please guide me on how to achieve this?Problem description:In the Lead screen, under the Involved Parties tab → Contacts, when users click the “+” Add Contact button, the new toggle button appears. I need to hide or remove this toggle button from the page.Please refer to the attached screenshots for reference. looking for solution or any workaround method for the same.  

When ordering a topic environment as part of the Release Update process for 25R2, it appears that it does not produce a log upon failing the build process.All I see under Environment Logs are the entries produced by ordering the Baseline Environment (including error logs).Is this a bug or is this by design (as in, newly implemented)? I recall still being able to inspect the logs of failed Topic Environments, the most recent instance being our uplift from 24R2 to 25R1.Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

Hi everyoneWe are upgrading Cloud from release 24R2 to 25R1. This is the first time we are upgrading to a new release with Modifications. We did 24R1 to24R2 with no mods previously.We have completed the first stage of the release process and run the Impact Analysis through the build place. We have  used the ‘Download Report’ option to get the various files generated as part of this process- excel, pdf, JSON and Source files.Should we now be using the update Analyzer tool to review the files generated from the Impact Analysis before we move on to the ‘Request the Release Update’ stage? The Tech docs are not clear on this: https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/ale/020_lifecycle/080_release_update_studio/020_request_release_update/010_create_sales_quotation/If we should use Update Analyzer then where do we get the base / target / modification  files it needs?These are the files generated produced in the JSON folder from the Impact Analysis but no sign of a modifications folder: Thanks in advanceC

HiI cannot access the details of the problems with backslash in 25R1 SU6. Can you please give me the details of all the problems known in 25R1 SU6 as we are considering upgrading to it soon ?Thanks and Regards,Anne-Sophie

Hello, We have updated from IFS 24.R1 to 25.R1 and as many times before we face multiple changes in API’s and Views. Im just interested if there is any recommendation how to work with this? If this still is the recommended way and we still want to improve our processes, I dont really now how we should keep being evergreen. Standard lobbys are of course good but never satisfies my colleagues. For example we have created a lobby based on view purchase_receipt_stat_uiv. And if we look at removed fields from this view there is a lot. Some of them are used in our lobbys that now of course stopped to work and there are pretty much job to recreate it and find usable values from other views. Regards,Johan Magnusson Removed fields in mentioned viewv1 ACTIVITY_SEQ ADDITIONAL_COST_AMOUNT ADDR_NO BUY_QTY_DUE BUY_UNIT_MEAS BUY_UNIT_PRICE BUYER_NAME CONTRACT CONV_FACTOR COUNTRY_CODE CURRENCY_CODE DEMAND_CODE DEMAND_CODE_DB DESCRIPTION DISCOUNT DOCK_REGISTER_NO FBUY_UNIT_PRICE FINAL

I know this sounds crazy, but we have reached out to our last 3 IFS sales people and none of them are responding and we want to buy more licenses!   and we can’t reach anyone in North America sales!    Does anyone know how to get in touch with IFS North America sales anymore?    We are in the Northeast and since Rick Bucchino left to work more on the product side, we can not get anyone in Sales to answer the phone to allow us to buy more licenses.   Any help (email/phone) would be appreciated!    Chuck Hamilton (Fresenius Medical Care - NxStage Medical Inc)

Hi everyone,I’m working on uplifting apps9 to IFS cloud 25R1 and I’m trying to determine whether there is any official or community-created mapping that links IFS standard BizAPIs to IFS Cloud REST APIs (Projections)So far, I have found a consolidated mapping document which gives information on uplift of few Bizapi's from following link:https://support.ifs.com/csm?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0043022I am hoping if someone can help in : 1. A mapping sheet they created during a Cloud migration,2. An internal or partner reference that lists BizAPI → Projection equivalents,3. Guidance on how others have approached this mapping efficiently,Or confirmation that no such document exists and it must be done case-by-case.Thanks in advance!
