Upgrades & Updates

We have errors in 25R1.3 that has been solved in 25R1.4Is this service update available for customer ?

Hi @All,I´ve one question, we just installed Update 27 in APPS 10 and got now a strange error message, when we tried to change a weight (WEIGHT_NET in PART_CATALOG) for a part that is in use.The message tells us, that it is not possible to change a weight after there is a invoiced Shipment/customer order for that part.Is this a bug or a “new” function in IFS which cames with the update (we updated from 13 to 27)?Does anyone have experience with that issue?Thanks for any feedback.BRAndre

Can someone confirm what tables are not copied from Prod to UAT/CFG during a database clone? We are on 23R2 upgrading to 24R2 and I noticed that the database clones? I created a support ticket to learn this but they said I should post it in community instead. Thanks!

 …  where the numbers comes from, what are counted?  

For planners and buyer/procurement teams. The inventory part availbitly planning overview, shows the status “Arrived” for materials that have been returned to the supplier.I think it should have a Status “RETWORK” like in Transcation History In this example, parts have been returned to the supplier using the following process steps. Generated a Return, by entering a “Qty to inspect” in the Receipt IFS opens the orginal Purchase Order Register Inspection Results Print a Return Note.Transaction History show the items as, RETWORKHowever for planners and buyer/procurement teams it is not clear that the parts have been returned to the supplier, even if they then check Purchase Order Lines History, is has status arrived which can then cause warehouse teams to look for the materials.  I think that this will help many IFS users worldwide.

Hi!Where can I find the PPT with Release Notes or “Whats New in IFS Apps 10 Update XX”? I’m looking for PPT för update 22, 23, 24, 25 and 26. 

Hi,Does anyone have any information on how Oracle EBR is used in 25R2? I can see in the documentation there is a readiness tool to change the database objects to become editionable but I’m looking for information on whether anyone has run this or what issues they have faced? https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/25r2/060_development/027_base_server_dev/225_reduced_downtime_delivery/020_code_changes/010_ebr_changes/We’re interested in looking into no downtime releases for remote deployments so if anyone is able to assist it would be much appreciated.Kind regards,Adam

In Customer Order Lines, we would like to use the “Create Task” function to do some extra monitoring of an order line.  We can create the task, but are running into problems if the person assigned to the task is out of the office and someone else is covering for them.  We are getting error messages “Only Assignee can reassign the task”, “Only Assignee can complete the task”, and “Only Assignee can edit the task”.  How might we allow another to take over the task and work on it?We are using Aurena Apps10

I tried submitting a case with IFS on this but was advised to try here first. Please advise if anyone is able to help with what we are experiencing below. We are hosting ourselves on-prem and recently upgraded from IFS 9 to 24R1. TL;DRThe <server> cluster is in HA mode but it is not using the typical robust cluster state database software that we would expect in a production ready environment (using Etcd). In addition to that, each node refers to itself for the Kubernetes API instead of a load balanced IP address in the event a node goes down. This is symptomatic of a non-production/non-enterprise setup. Microk8s is best suited for small, single node implementations and/or local development. It does have addon features to provide HA and other production style features, however, those features are not very robust. This is how IFS chose to package their product, and they don’t appear to offer any other on-prem options. So, we appear to be stuck with it as is. As a reference for the

Hi Team, we are going to upgrade IFS 9 to IFS cloud . it should be via IFS 10 & then IFS cloud . Anyone have done the same & could you Please share the steps for same with script. RegardsSuraj

Hi,We are working on upgrading our IFS 10 UPD 22 version to IFS Cloud 25 R1.Upgrade. This will be On-Prem to On-Prem UpgradeWe would like to know whether the database upgrade can be performed in a customer-hosted (On-Prem) interim environment rather than doing it in an environment hosted by IFS. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could provide some insight into this matter.

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

Hello everyone,In IFS Cloud, I would like the rows in tables or lists to appear in a zebra pattern — meaning alternating white and light gray backgrounds for better readability.How can I achieve this? Are there any examples or best practices available for implementing such a style?This feature is very important for the development work I’m doing.Thank you in advance for your help!

Is it possible to upgrade to IFS Cloud 25R2 directly from IFS Applications 9?  

Hello all; In one of my recent upgrade projects involving an 8TB Oracle database, I observed that the import operation is taking approximately 62 hours to complete. Within this, importing INDEXES alone consumes around 21 hours, and importing CONSTRAINTS takes about 24 hours. I am looking for best practices, tips, or any suggestions to help reduce the overall import time, especially for these long-running segments. If anyone has experience with speeding up large database imports or optimizing the import of indexes and constraints, your insights will be highly appreciated. Currently, the import is a major bottleneck in the upgrade timeline, and any guidance on parallelism settings, pre/post-import tuning, or other techniques would be very helpful. Thank you in advance!Note:Here I've used PARALLEL=30 as well [ 32 CPU Database server ] INDEXES  CONSTRAINTS   BR!/Dilshan

 Hi All,A Customer has set up user  log in using SSO (Azure AD) for IFS Cloud access, but the current setup requires repeated manual login clicks.Is there a way to disable repeated prompts? Thank you! 

Hi,We are in the middle of upgrading to 25R1 SU3 from 24R2. In all installations to test-environments so far we have experiecced a bug, the login fails a day after the installation has been done. Before that it is possible to login. Anyone else who experienced this issue?We have case CS0437713The RnD team has identified this as a defect within the IFS Cloud Application, and they are currently working on a solution, and solution is planned for the following versions.IFS Planned Version: 25.1.6 - 25R1 SU6, 25.2.0 - 25R2 GAUntil a permanent solution is provided, the current viable workaround is to restart the ifsapp-iam pod. The RnD team is also working on an alternative workaround in parallell, as the existing one is not sustainable.Kindly Marie

Based on our findings, there are typically several methods available to update permission sets following an update delivery. However, given the substantial volume involved—802 Security Objects associated with 379 Functional Roles—we believe that providing a set of scripts for the bulk update of permission sets is the most efficient and practical approach.That said, we would appreciate clarification on the following points: What are the limitations of the scripts? How does each prompt behave differently during execution? What are the recommended approaches for the team to test the scripts in a suitable environment ahead of deployment? .Best Regards,Dilka

Hello,  Is there any way to add more information to the my work calendar view for MWO users? It is very limited, our users prefer this view, however it displays very limited information. 

Subject: CVE-2021-44228 Still Present in IFS Remote Cloud 24R2 FilesHello,We are currently deploying IFS Remote Cloud 24R2, and we have identified that some files available on lifecycle.ifs.com still contain the Log4j vulnerability CVE-2021-44228.Since Oracle is distributed by IFS as an OEM, we do not have direct access to Oracle's patching services, which limits our ability to apply standard Oracle CPU patches.We would appreciate your guidance on the following points:What remediation options are available for environments where direct Oracle patching is not possible? Is it safe to manually remove the vulnerable components, such as JndiLookup.class, from the affected .jar files? Has anyone else encountered this issue during deployment of 24R2, and how was it resolved? Are there updated packages or scripts available from IFS to mitigate this vulnerability?We are particularly interested in best practices for removing or neutralizing the vulnerable files without impacting system stability

Hi Experts,Is there a way to export multiple ACPs together? We are looking to export ACPs from one environment and import them into another, and would like to know the best and fastest way to handle this in IFS Cloud 25R1.Your advice on the recommended method would be much appreciated. ​@Jaya Janardhanan Best Regards, 

Hi, Is there anyone has experience with customers’ LTU licenses for IFS Cloud? Based on IFS standard documentation, to enable user consume LTU license, only by connecting the users to LTU permission sets. But when customer purchase LTU license on IFS cloud, there is no LTU permission set available to chose from. Where could customer / partner get the LTU license for IFS cloud? and how to enable it when available? Thanks, Sutoto
