Upgrades & Updates

Hi All, Anyone with experience in upgrading from IFS Apps 10 Aurena Permission sets to IFS Cloud permission sets? Is it a full rework or can it be upgraded? I know if it is IFS EE to IFS Cloud then it is a complete redo, but guessing we can salvage a lot from Aurena permission sets to Cloud permission sets. Regards, Malik

Hello, My topic stands in the context of a migration project from APPS7.5 to IFS Cloud 23r2. It seems that module "Support Center" that was part of the APPS7.5 solution no longer exists in IFS Cloud. What the replacement module in IFS Cloud ?Do the core upgrade scripts handle this module (at first from 7.5 to APPS10, at second from APPS10 to IFS Cloud) ? Thanks in advance for any answers. Best Regards. Hervé

I’d like to get an official statement from IFS when the Query Flags and Default Values functionalities for Quick Reports become available in IFS Cloud. Since these functionalities are part of the official Technical Documentation for Cloud – saying they are currently unavailable – I suppose that sooner or later they will be (re)implemented in Cloud as well. Quick Reports - Technical Documentation for IFS Cloud - We have a bunch of Quick Reports in Apps 10 with query flags and default values included, and the usage of these functions (specially the multi-selection and LoV options) save a lot of working time for our users every day, so we’d like to use these in Cloud too as soon as possible.

Hey all, An employee would like to search for the phone number of a customer in Account Contacts to find him/her faster, however, currently there is no formatting standard employed for phone numbers. By this, I mean that a phone number can look like any of the following examples: +46 123 4567 012-345 67 012-34567 0 1234567 etc… This means that if I wanna find all instances of this phone number, I would only get the phone numbers that are uninterrupted (which might not even exist). Before this employee was able to search for any phone number using the following sql search: replace(replace(replace(replace(replace(PHONE,'(0)',''),' ',''),')',''),'(',''),'-','') like '%760400560' or replace(replace(replace(replace(replace(MOBILE,'(0)',''),' ',''),')',''),'(',''),'-','') like '%760400560' The issue currently is that the Advanced search in IFS Cloud does not recognize “replace”: CrmCustomerContact/CustomerContactOverviewPage (server error)Malformed Request.Error details: [{"code":"EXPRESSION

Dear All, We are currently working on an IFS upgrade project to transition one of our IFS customers from IFS 9 UPD 14 to IFS Cloud. We have completed our first upgrade iteration and have upgraded the customer to IFS Cloud 23 R1. The customer belongs to the telecom sector, and work orders from IFS applications are the main area they are utilizing. During this initial iteration, it took 78 hours and 20 minutes to execute the main upgrade script. Out of this total time, 72 hours and 52 minutes were spent on post-installation data file deployment. Within this time frame, the work order module related files took up 69 minutes and 37 minutes. Below are the files that took the most time: POST_Wo_UpgradeToTaskFramework.sql: 16 hours and 48 minutes POST_WO_UpdateHistAllocations.sql: 2 hours and 48 minutes POST_Wo_UpdateJtTaskPlanning.sql: 46 hours and 26 minutes POST_WO_CreateAssignForDefTask.sql: 1 hour and 50 minutes POST_Wo_UpgradeTransactionsToTaskFramework.sql: 27 minutes POST_Wo_UpgradeOt

You can’t pass string values through quotation marks to 'select’ queries in custom fields that you are going to use in reports. When you pass string values through quotation marks, it generates an ‘Error ORA-00936’ Oracle error. To avoid this, you have to pass string values using APIs.
