Field Service Management (FSM) & Planning and Scheduling Optimization (PSO)

Is it possible to show/hide fields (setControlVisibility) or set some fields as required/not required (setControlRequired) on the FSM Smart Client Screen using Client Script? I want to set some fields as not required based on the task_type on the TASK screen, so that I do not get the validation error when saving. If task_type = A set user_def1 as required else if task_type = B set user_def1 as not required

Hello In FSM 5.7 mobile, when attaching photos, you can only take the photo and save within FSM but not to your camera roll. This is an issue as there have been many instances of the file getting corrupted and unable to retrieve it since it only exists in the attachment database. Is there a way to allow the app to save these photos to the camera roll as well? I know users can upload there own photos but you have to navigate through android root menus and that is not user friendly

As communicated by Apple, the Apple Volume Purchase Program (VPP) will cease to exist and it is replaced by Apple Business Manager (ABM).As a result of the above, customers using mobile applications from IFS distributed previously through VPP need to change their distribution method to use an ABM account instead for receiving IFS apps All customers who have VPP accounts should be aware of that they need to move to ABM. Apple changed the links to redirect them to the new program, and new links are required to get to the VPP program: https://vpp.itunes.apple.com/ . Once there, customers are reminded to update to Apple Business Manager. Once they have enrolled in ABM, they create a Location for each VPP account and invite the VPP Purchaser. All apps should continue to operate without issue The IFS/Partner App Manager needs to make sure to add the Organization ID to Pricing and Availability when sending the new app version to the customer . (customers can only have the Organization ID if t

Impact on IFS Customers Apple have enforced a policy that all applications must be built using the iOS 13 SDK (Xcode11) by the 30th June 2020. From this date, new submissions of new or existing apps that are not built on this version will not be accepted into the store. FSM 5.7 Update 10 and FSM 6 Update 5 both comply with this requirement. Previous versions of FSM do not comply with this requirement. Another part of our application is affected by these changes from Apple. Our photo redlining/editing tool is no longer supported and has been removed from FSM 5.7 Update 10 and FSM 6 Update 5. It is our intention to reintroduce this capability by embedding a different 3rd party controller in a future update of FSM 6 once an appropriate tool is selected. Why does this matter? If you have modified the FSM mobile application on iOS and have not had your app accepted by this date, any new submissions of that app will be refused. This change does not affect existing apps that are already submi
