Install IFS Report Designer at customer

This page should be located elsewhere...

Java runtime is a prerequisite for IFS Report Designer. Java runtime version 6 or later is recommended for installing. The IFS Report Designer is installed locally from the IFS Report Designer installation file SetupIFSReportDesigner80.exe.

There is only one, backward compatible, tool. When new functionality is added to the tool, the tool should automatically update itself. If there is any trouble, just do a fresh install of the tool and the new functionality is there.

If you are a customer reading this, you need to get in contact with IFS in order to get IFS Report Designer setup. The typical scenario is that this is done in combination with training on the tool.

To setup/install the IFS Report Designer tool on a customer machine perform the following tasks:

Before arriving at the customer

  1. Locate the F1 Tool Disk where the IFS Report Designer is located.
    The F1 Tool Disk is distributed to file servers located in IFS offices through out the world. The tools are made available on the DFS on \\Corpnet\Files\F1tools\

At the customer

Install Java runtime version 6 or later and run SetupIFSReportDesigner.exe. The default destination folder is C:\Program Files\IFS.
