IFS Wire weekly digest: week of 2 November 2026

The IFS week in short: a UK public-sector Copperleaf award, a named Saudi implementation partner, two practical 26R2 notes, and a busy jobs board. Every item links to its source. This digest skips stories already covered in this week's daily posts (Cadillac F1, Copperleaf Next availability, Apps 10 extended support dates, and the imported event-action conditions Q&A).

RELEASE: Windows Server 2025 for on-prem Management Server in 26R2 On the IFS Community, an IFS employee (SamiL) told a customer building new on-premises infrastructure that Windows Server 2025 support for the IFS Cloud Management Server was released in 26R2 Early Access and is included in the release notes, though it had not yet appeared in the Supported Platforms documentation. The reply says customers using 26R2, due in November, should be fine on Windows Server 2025.

COMMUNITY Q&A: multi-record workflow commands from 26R2 dsj originally asked how to run a workflow command against several selected rows on a list page; earlier replies suggested a custom flag workaround. dsj later updated the thread: executing a workflow for a multiple-record selection is possible since 26R2, pointing to IFS Cloud Workflow Examples technical documentation.
