Dispatch Console Dataset Limitations

When using the 23R2 Dispatch Console for manual resource assignment for a customer who does not use PSO and has 4000 resources, is it advisable to use multiple datasets? What advantage would the use of multiple datasets bring without PSO? Is there is a concern that so many resources under one dataset would cause performance issues in the Dispatch Console even without using PSO? Couldn’t filters on Resource Group and Region sufficiently limit the number or resources hitting the Dispatch Console even with all 4000 resources in one dataset?

Date Format in data import export

We are upgrading from FSM 5.5 to 6U27 so a big jump. We have noticed the date format required for import export is in the form below in 6U27 with the T character.In FSM 5.5, import export uses standard SQL date/time format.I can work around this using the below when preparing data however is there any option to use standard date time formats in the Import Export tool? The database holds the data without the ‘T’ so strange that the import export tool uses it. select product_id, CONVERT(VARCHAR(50), user_def_dttm1, 127) from product

Stop task dispatch to a working shift on future dates to an engineer having non-working current shift, without impacting next day commit

Hi IFSPlease find a scenario.Current Day/Day 0 = Engineer is non-working.Next Day/Day 1 = Engineer having working shiftTask allocated to Day 1. Customers are raising concerns that the field engineers are getting disturbed on non-working day. So what are the options to stop task auto dispatch from Day 0 to Day 1? Once the task get dispatched, it should be immediately get attended and sometimes the engineer will miss to check this task, leading to SLA breach and high penalties.Note:Next day commit is enabled and it is needed as well. Because if Day 0 and Day 1 are working for the engineer then next day commit should work. Thanks,Jagath

Appointment Booking Unavailable due to Plan Decrease

We are having some troubles understanding some of the differences in the ABE and DSE and how it’s effecting our appointment booking. We typically request appointment’s via the ABE and then accept one of the offers and send it to the DSE. We are constantly finding that a lot of our appointment offers are being returned with available = false and that the reason code = 470. Digging through a ton of these appointments requests we have been trying to use the explainability service to better understand the WHY it was unavailable for any particular resource. We have been finding that for a good amount of our appointment requests they are showing as unavailable simply because of a plan value decrease. What we are looking to understand is what would cause an activity with a base value greater than 100 being added to the schedule that would cause the plan value to decrease? The required skills, amount of the time available in the shift, the max travel all point to the resource being capable and

Using the explainability service with old plans

We are doing some research into some of our markets and want to see why the ABE told us certain appointment slots that we asked for we unavailable. To my understanding, if i go and use the explainability service right now for an activity that was scheduled 2 or 3 days ago, it’ll validate who it would schedule to right now and why, vs what the plan looked like at the time of booking. Can we use the explainability service somehow with old plans (the plan used when creating the appointment request maybe) to see why it might have chosen who it dad back then? Can we use an API to create requests for the explainability service?

Is it possible to fix the resources via filter?

Hello, our customer wants to use the filter options in PSO and see for example only the resources for a certain city. But if he wants to fix an activity to a resource, than all resources appear, not only those for the specified city in the filter. e.g.: Even if I use a filter and I see on the gantt only the resources from a certain city, in ,,Fix to resource”, the dispatcher can choose from all resources from the country. Is there a way to be able to fix to resource according to the filter used? Thank you very much,Iulia

FSM 6 - Web Client - Search area displaying buttons

Hi, We have some users looking to migrate from Smart Client to Web Client. One piece of feedback we have had is that on some screens the ‘New’ button isn’t present on the search area. Meaning they have to go into a record to get the option to create a new record. The above screen shot is from the baseline version of the Purchase Order screen. The New button is present when the screen appears. But when we use a screen we have configured previously the New button isn't there.Is there a simple control for this in the UI Designer, or is that controlled by a Script?Any help is greatly appreciated.RegardsAdy

Breaks Appearing in PSO Workbench for User Without Assigned Breaks

However, in the cloud end, no breaks have been assigned to this user in terms of resource availability, nor have any task templates been designated.How are these breaks being generated for this user, and what steps can be taken to remove them?

How to identify whether the Task/activity is auto dispatched by PSO

HiIs there any provision or UI field in PSO to identify if the task/activity is dispatched automatically by PSO or manually dispatched by any user in PSO?The same details can be seen in FSM, differentiating a manual or auto dispatch from PSO rather than simply showing IFS_PSO as created by?This will help in identifying the issues related to dispatch at later point of time.

Creating New Escalation as Standalone Entity from Mobile!

Hi Experts,I want to create Escalation from IFS FSM mobile app directly without creating it from debrief workflow (i.e. not from request, task). So is there any way I can do that currently whenever trying to do that it is asking for a workflow to be entitled (debrief, quote). So far, I’ve created an Escalation screen but there is no way of creating Escalation from there.

PSO status turning to - - 1

Hi 😊,kindly request your assistance with an intermittent issue currently experienced in the customer's environment.Customer environment: IFS CLOUD 23.2.2This ID: 7623 which is in accepted status in PSO is related to WT 5682 which is in released status.The customer address line was empty and therefore, added an address line.When the addressline is added This ID: 7623 in PSO which is in accepted status has turned to - -1 (which should be with (WO No - Task No - 1)To fix this, attempt to add a resource line deleting the previous line and it is not allowed.Attempt to cancel the accepted assignment and it is not allowed since it is transferred to mobile.We would conclude that attempting the address line modification during the 'Allocated' state or before allocation could prevent this issue from occurring.But there is another example when the PSO is turning to allocated state:Here, ID No: 14194 Task No: 8781 in PSO is in allocated state and allocations are not available in scheduling infor

Activities and Resources Not Appearing in PSO WB

Hello Experts,I've created a new scheduling dataset, but I'm facing an issue where resources are not being displayed in PSO WB. However, the resource is available, and shifts are also defined in audit files. Even when I send a work task with location and resource demand lines, the activities are not displayed in PSO WB, although they can be seen in audits. Could there be something missing in the configuration or setup that's causing this discrepancy? Your insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
