Module 1 — Basic Data Promotion

Synchronize your IFS environments.
In 3 clicks. Nothing missed. No risk.

Compare your IFS configuration tables across environments, visualize every difference, automatically resolve dependencies, and promote with full confidence — with a complete audit trail of every operation.

The problem

Promoting IFS configuration manually is inherently risky

Your consultants spend hours identifying which tables have changed, in what order to promote them, and which dependencies to account for. One mistake, one oversight — and you have a production bug on Friday evening. 

The IFS Data Migration Tool covers this need, but it is complex, expensive, and requires rare technical profiles. You deserve better. 

Without ERP Control — what your teams go through
Manually identifying modified tables in each environment
Resolving table dependencies by hand — with the risk of oversight
No traceability: impossible to know who promoted what, and when
PROD promotions not locked — governance relies on human discipline
What the module does

6 features for risk-free promotions

Each feature has been designed to eliminate a source of error or wasted time in your IFS promotions.

Functional tree of IFS tables

Browse the IFS table tree organized by business area — Finance, Supply Chain, CRM, Project Management. Find the tables to promote in seconds. 

Line-by-line delta comparison

See exactly what differs between your source (CFG) and your target (UAT/PROD) before promoting anything. No surprises at execution time. 

Automatic dependency resolution

ERP Control automatically detects and resolves dependencies between tables. The execution order is calculated for you — no more foreign key errors in PROD. 

POST / PATCH / DELETE orchestration

The platform automatically determines whether each row should be created, updated, or deleted in the target environment — based on its actual state in IFS via the ODATA API. 

Partial or bulk promotion

Select exactly which rows to promote — just one, a subset, or the entire table. Partial promotion is just as secure as bulk promotion. 

Full history by session UUID

Every promotion is tracked: user, table, affected rows, line-by-line result (success/failure), timestamp. Identified by a unique session UUID — immutable and auditable. 

In practice

A promotion in 3 steps

What your consultant used to do in 2 hours now takes less than a minute.

1

Select environments

Choose your source environment (e.g. CFG) and your target environment (e.g. UAT). ERP Control connects via the ODATA API and automatically analyzes both instances. 

2

Visualize the delta and select

The interface displays line by line what differs between the two environments. Select the rows to promote — one or more tables, specific rows, or all of them. 

3

Launch — ERP Control does the rest

The platform resolves dependencies, orchestrates API calls in the correct order, and tracks every operation. Results visible in real time, line by line. 

Business benefits

What it concretely changes for your IFS projects

Your IFS consultants save 40h per month
This time is reinvested in higher-value activities — functional analysis, process optimization.
Zero PROD incidents caused by a forgotten dependency
Automatic dependency resolution eliminates the main cause of errors during manual promotions.
Full auditability for your CIOs and auditors
Every promotion is tracked with a session UUID. Find out in 30 seconds who did what, when, and with what result.
Accelerated IFS project cycles
Every UAT or go-live iteration is 3 to 5 times faster. Your IFS go-lives meet their deadlines.
"What we used to do manually in two hours — with the constant risk of forgetting a parent table — now takes three clicks. And everything is tracked for the audit."

Questions about this module

Everything you need to know about configuration promotion in ERP Control.

ERP Control connects to all your IFS environments via the standard ODATA API — CFG, TRN, UAT, PROD. No ERP modification is required. The connection is configured once in the environment registry.

No — this is a deliberate design choice. PROD is locked by a technical lock tied to the Governance & Approval module. Any promotion to PROD requires explicit validation from a designated approver. This is not organizational — it is technical.

Each row is processed independently and the result (success or failure with a precise error message) is displayed in real time. Failed rows are clearly identified in the session history. You can retry only the failed rows without re-promoting what already succeeded.

ERP Control supports all tables exposed via the IFS ODATA API. The functional tree is configured for standard configuration tables (Finance, Supply Chain, CRM, Project Management, etc.). Additional tables can be added via tree configuration.

The Promotion module is up and running in 2 to 3 days: platform installation, ODATA connection setup to your IFS environments, functional tree configuration, and validation of a first test promotion. The 2-week POC allows validation on your real data.
