Hello IFS,

What is the process when a delivery/SU/RU is received from IFS and it contains changes to e.g. a DB field where the existing DB field is removed and replaced by a NEW DB field with a DIFFERENT name?

This is causing major headaches to try to backtrack as the old field might have been used in existing events, BPA (workflows), print-out reports, 3rd party work flows and Power Bi reports that will start to fail when the OLD DB field is no longer availabe.

How are other customers handling this?

Is there a change log available from IFS’s side with these details?

@IWAHANS what you want could be possible by cloning the customer-baseline repo.

 

 

I’m using a free git client called GIT Extensions to have a visual representation of the changes in between different versions.

Just go to Start → Clone Repo → paste the URL of the Customer Baseline Repo copied from the BuilPlace.

You would need to just see the latest RU that’s been deployed to the BuildPlace or the one are interested in. You’ll see all the code changes from the previous release. Of course, there will be lots of changes in between different RUs, so I assume reviewing everything would be quite a big effort. Fixing things that appear during testing will require for sure less time 😁.

 


Had to make an IFS SNOW case to finally find the overview over the Clone content.

Please see below KB article KB0049202.

One of the changes from prior Cloning process is that Events are no longer part of the Clone and that caused major issues for us in the 24R1 SU05 RU process.
