 When upgrading from IEE client to IFS Aurena, there is a need to give users access to Projections.Is there a way to “translate” Permission to database objects, Activities, Services or System Privileges to the corresponding Projections automatically?It will be a huge, time-consuming job to build up new Permission set with Projections manually.

I cannot find an updated documentation for routing rules using SOAP-IFS. anyone has any link ?

Hi,We are currently on APPS9 UPD 11 and some parts of the business are using the Integration with P6. I want to understand if there are any changes in the tool after our current version?

I recall when moving to IFS Apps v9, we were sold on the fact that future version upgrades would be much easier! We moved from IFSv7.5 to IFSv9 in early 2018. Although it went without a hitch, it was no small project from an IT or Business point of view. We now see that IFsv9 is nearing the end of its standard 5 year support phase, moving into extended support in Mar 2020 (We were obviously a bit late to the v9 party!). Is there anyone out there who have upgraded from v9 to v10. Was this a straight forward upgrade? Did you stay with your original Oracle version? What was the impact on users? Vague request for information I know, so happy to receive vague discussion/answers. FYI: We are a manufacturing business, multiple sites worldwide, around 400 users, Hosted on-prem, Oracle 12c. Cheers Mike

Hi everyone, We are running on IFS 10,5 and we are planning an upgrade before year-end.  How can upgrade 10.5 to 10.8 ? Where can i download manual step by step setup?  and upgrade setup files? Thanks

Hello Guys,    please let me know that difference among version of IFS 7.5 vs 8 vs 9 vs 10.

Hi all,I am currently in the process of updating from Apps 9 Update 10 to Update 16 and noticed that my server startup/shutdown scripts aren’t working as expected.It seems the cause is due to the E:\IFS\IFSExt\<INSTANCE>\mw_home\as directory being replaced by the mws directory.In the hopes that this was a simple location switch I changed the startup/shutdown scripts to reflect this change in directory. echo Starting Middleware servers...cd /d %DRIVE%:\IFS\IFSExt\%SID%\instance\%SID%\bin%JAVA_HOME%/bin/java -cp %DRIVE%:\IFS\IFSExt\%SID%/mw_home/as/wlserver/server/lib/weblogic.jar weblogic.WLST %DRIVE%:\IFS\IFSExt\%SID%/instance/%SID%/bin/mws-startServer.py startall %PWD%to echo Starting Middleware servers...cd /d %DRIVE%:\IFS\IFSExt\%SID%\instance\%SID%\bin%JAVA_HOME%/bin/java -cp %DRIVE%:\IFS\IFSExt\%SID%/mw_home/mws/wlserver/server/lib/weblogic.jar weblogic.WLST %DRIVE%:\IFS\IFSExt\%SID%/instance/%SID%/bin/mws-startServer.py startall %PWD%cd /d %DRIVE%:%LOGFOLDER%ping -n 5 127.0

Hi there, Found out that UPD 8 of IFS Applications 10 was to be released at 30 April. Were do I find content/release notes for that release? I am in particular interested in the development of new interface IFS Aurena, and changes around Project Management, HR and CRM. Best regards, Filip

Are there any users/customers who has recently upgraded to PSO 6 update 5 from PSO 6.1?Basically who has upgraded from the Silverlight version and started using the HTML version (on Chrome and other browsers).If someone can share their experience, lessons learnt/ challenges faced, it would be great for us to travel that path and get rid of some of the obstacles someone else has already faced.

I am doing an upgrade of custom events and fields in Applications 10. I have two instances of Apps 10: In one instance I am adding all the custom events and custom fields to configuration packages. I am then importing those package in another instance of Apps10. The custom events in the packages already exist in the Apps10 instance I am importing them to. However when I import them it tells me that the custom event already exists (which is true) and in the case of the custom fields it does not overwrite the the existing field, it creates a new one with “_2” appended to the name.When I was creating the packages there wasn’t a setting to allow me to overwrite the object I am exporting if it already exists in the IFS instance that I import it to. Likewise when i imported the package I was not given the option to overwrite the object if it already exists. Is this the way Configuration Packages  work? It isn’t possible for me to delete all the objects in the db before the import.

Hi,Do you know, if it is possible to migrate predefined HU IDs to products in stock? This is for the situation where we would like to start actual labelling of stock before IFS10 database is  available for HU ID creation?

I was used to be able to find the ‘Whats new in IFS apps Update x’ in OpenIFS. Since this platform has been taken offline, I haven’t been able to find the latest updates. Where can I find those now? I’m particularly looking for UDP8.

Do you know if IFS 9x will work with 12.1.0.2 container db?

Is there a way of setting your own default homepage on Aurena?

Has anyone heavily customised IFS apps 9 to suit their business? we are looking to upgrade from Apps 9 to Apps 10 in the next year and am wondering if we will lose any functionality from our customisations. Has anyone had any major problems moving from apps 9 to 10? Am considering a customisation freeze  to make sure the process has as less need for regression testing. Perhaps am being over cautious? we have a number of improvement requests to streamline IFS for the business and don’t want to stifle potential time/effort saving initiatives.   Thanks   

we plan to upgrade from IFS application v9.5 to IFS v2020, is it possible? or need from v9 to v10 then v2020? is there any detail steps?

Hi, I just create a test DB from PROD and install new IFS application run on TEST db but can not see,use custom Items. How can I do this.

Hello, We upgrade from V9 to V10. Is there a document listing the technical changes between V9 and V10 ?

We are running Apps 9 and have a number of improvements requested by the business, most simple things like referenced fields and events but am aware with the need to move to Apps10 that these little tweaks may not work as expected in the latest version. How do you guys manage your improvements? - Is it a free-for-all or do you follow a process?

Hello, is there anywhere specific to provide general improvement suggestion feedback about IFS? I’m talking about things that aren’t bugs per se and don’t really count as support cases but rather suggestions that could make IFS better - a suggestion box.
