  1. Please confirm whether the options of “All historical WOs”, “All historical WTs” and “All historical Work Task Steps” are available in Equipment Object Navigator in IFS Cloud releases? 
  2. If it is not available in the current releases, please confirm whether it will be included in upcoming releases.
  3. What is the IFS recommendation or workaround to cater following requirement? I strongly believe this must have been raised by several others customers already

Note:
It is crucial to cater for an easy and user-friendly way be able to demonstrate the planned, ongoing, and historical maintenance activities. During Audits with the different authorities the offshore and onshore operations are stressed and tested to the limits when it comes to prove their control of the maintenance planning and execution, and specially for the safety and barrier related equipment. 

From Equipment Object Navigator, there are tabs available to see “All Active Work Orders”, “All Active Work Tasks”, and “All Active Work Task Steps”. It is not possible to see same for historical, which makes it very cumbersome for the end user to demonstrate the maintenance status, and especially during audits with external authorities.

Hi @niwa ,

Equipment object navigator shows the historical maintenance for a particular object through the counts cards( Historical Work orders, Historical Work tasks and Historical Work Task Steps ) in summary tab, Work tasks tab and Work task steps tab.

However All historical work information is not added as a design decision considering the substantial performance impact it would have in the Equipment object navigator. When it comes to a large equipment object structure with lots of equipment and levels, historical work information will keep accumulating and from top of the structure the number of historical work orders/tasks/task steps would keep on growing as maintenance is carried out for the lower level objects. This will have a substantial performance drawback for large object structures where it’ll make it difficult to load the information and drill down the object structure in the Equipment object navigator in a performant manner. 

Considering this RnD only considered to show historical work information for a particular object.

Regards,
Asitha
