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

Hello, We have upgraded from 6u13 to 6u24 and our Tech portal is no longer able to print service reports. We have a button that run the following language:var task_id = getControlValue('task','task_id');alert(task_id);if (isNullOrEmptyString(task_id)) {    return false;}var reportParams = 'task_id=' + task_id;printReport('FSE_SERVICE_REPORT_INT', reportParams, PDF); This code has functioned for the last 12+ months under 6u13 but now in 6u24 it no longer functions. We are receiving the following error.Out report is formatted  

I am new to using XML in FSM. Is there a resource that I can turn to that shows the capabilities of XML in FSM?ie. Basic, intermediate, and advanced XML examples in FSM?Another question: How can you have a data constraint with multiple items? In SQL we would use: “where question_id in (100,200,300)”

Hi experts,Is it possible to add a button to a header section of a screen (for web client) ?something like the ones highlighted in yellow, to be added to the arrow pointed section ?  

Hi Experts,I have a requirement of triggering an integration upon clicking a hyperlink. The only way I could think of going about this is by attaching a client script to a text field and setting the lookup navigation of that field such that it shows a hyperlink.For example: and the client script is attached as following,the above setup yields in a hyperlink, but clicking on this doesn’t trigger the client scriptI tried various configurations for the lookup navigation, and my observation was that whenever the Trigger is set as hyperlink, client scripts don’t get triggered.The only way I could get the client script to trigger was with the following setup, but the flipside is, this doesn’t yield a hypelink anymore, So this is where I  am at. Any ideas on how to get the desired requirement working? is it possible at all?P.S I saw a similar question raised here which is still unanswered

Hi Community,Would anyone know if there is a way to change the “customer Owned” status?  It should not be, it should be a stock item.  I returned a panel to stock and apparently got click happy and made a huge mess.  I cannot issue the part now to a task because it is “Customer Owned”I need to change that status so I can issue it and fix the transaction. Any contribution would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Mesh Screenshot of the issue   

Hi All, I have a customer where 1 user is able to connect an Export license and the other is not. The license remains in status ‘Unconnected’ for the other user; When that user asks help from the other user they are immediatley able to get the connected export license in status ‘Approved’. i have been looking into the cause of the issue bu having trouble to identify the issue. All Permission sets seem to be ok. What else could cause this behaviour? Best RegardsRoel

PSO will broadcast the allocation details of all the visits of the split activity but, FSM will only capture the allocation details of one visit (the visit it captures is random - it may be the 1st, 2nd or 3rd visit) and display it in the task screen. But, only the last visit details are sent back to FSM & this is a incorrect representation for the Schedule. For Example:  PSO Task is split into 3 days, Day1, Day2 & Day3, but the visit returned is for the Day3, the Scheduling for material planning will be done incorrectly considering the Day3. Whereas the Day1 is suppose to be considered for the Scheeduling.

In FSM6 Update 25, a new enhancement has been added to reduce the messages being extracted between FSM Server and Mobile.  What is the logic that determines “If an update message from FSM Server is not relevant to any of the fields used in FSM Mobile designs?”The name of the new app param indicates that the logic may only be checking if a field exists on a screen in the mobile client.  What about other field changes that are not on a screen but are used in logic to determine behavior?  For example, a client script could select user_def25 from the mobile database, but if that field is not on a screen, an update on the server will not be sent down to mobile.

Is there a way to see allocated to(resource/resource description) here in the tasks? Its strange that it does not show the resource in the task 

Can the gantt charts be exported to excel or pdf by some way? Like WO planning gantt/resource shift gantt--if there are many resources/tasks, it becomes difficult to just refer gantt to get a holistic idea as it needs scrolling, so can it be exported?

Hi, Can you offer any suggestion on why we occasionally see a travel duration of 2777777:46:40 (300+ years)?In most circumstances we see a max travel duration of 24 hrs. On occasion we have activities with coordinates of 0,0, this is a separate issue that we have identified.      Any suggestions of what to look at or how to troubleshoot would be much appreciated. Thank you

Good afternoon, Is there a way to install the FSM Smart Client integrated install as a silent install with command line switches to define the Product type and the product name like below. We are trying to automate the installation of the client for users after an upcoming upgrade and want to be able to have users select dev, qas, sbx or prd environments in the dropdown. We have figured out the placement of the file for the metrixendpoints.xml file after the install, but want to push the client install to 50+ users and don’t want to have to touch and interact with every install on every client. Anybody else run into this? Thanks in advance.

I am seeking to receive an array from our customer’s system and convert it into a single string that we can add as a note.They are sending the below in the body of their message: "request": {"site_id": "0085","template_id": "1533","cross_reference_id": "RTS-326","po": "RTS-326","priority": "","part_id": ["00DN001","00L8367","01L1646","011545A","01L1647"],"long_description": "Testing scanner order"}When reviewing the transaction logs, I can see that all 5 parts were interpreted in the system but only the first part_id, 00DN001, populates in the notes.<request>  <site_id>0085</site_id>  <template_id>1533</template_id>  <cross_reference_id>RTS-326</cross_reference_id>  <po>RTS-326</po>  <priority>  </priority>  <part_id>00DN001</part_id>  <part_id>00L8367</part_id>  <part_id>01L1646</part_id>  <part_id>011545A</part_id>  <part_id>01L1647</part_id>  <long_descrip

Dear Community,I have added some sample Resource data manually under “Planning” workspace, and also created an activity / resource data using through REST API ( http://…./../IFSSchedulingRESTfulGateway/api/v1/scheduling/data?dataType=SCHEDULE&datasetId=Default&includeInput=true&includeOutput=true ) added under scheduling workspace,  I see the DSE has been picked up the resources from Scheduling workspace and scheduled the activities rather from Planning workspace.  Also I am able to create same resource ( with same resource ID ) in scheduling workspace as already added  in the Planning workspace.  Is this normal behaviour that we can add duplicate resource data in Scheduling and planning workspaces ??  Can anyone please clarify on this ?
