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

A User accidently cancelled a Work Order generated from the PM Action Maintenance Plan. This work order should not have been cancelled and the Maintenance is required to be completed / recorded. How can I cancel the cancellation? It will not let me regenerate a WO for the Cancelled Line and I do not want to Generate Next Years Line to record it.Thanks,

hi,I was wondering if it was possible that when a Work Order is generated from a PM Action that a Planned Purchase Requisition can also be created. We have a large volume of PM Actions that require a set list of Parts each time they are completed that currently the Users are manually creating each time and I hoped that we could have them defined in the PM Action and auto created when the event is generated. Thanks in Advance.

From Customer:   At least once a day we have a session ID that is blocking other sessions to run and slows down the system performance in Production.  Currently our DBA team is monitoring for blocking sessions longer than 45 minutes.  These seem to be sessions that go to sleep.  We need an understanding what is running in the FSM software with the user of metrix running this SQL:   When the blocking occurs it does affect all users.  Our short term approach is to delete the locked session.'<'?query -- (@task_step_id decimal(6,0),@task_id decimal(7,0),@step_id decimal(4,0),@sequence decimal(3,0),@step_name nvarchar(28),@completed nvarchar(1),@step_type nvarchar(7),@required nvarchar(1),@completed_as_of datetime,@completed_by nvarchar(10),@mobile nvarchar(1),@user_def1 nvarchar(7),@user_def4 nvarchar(1),@user_def11 nvarchar(6),@user_def12 nvarchar(6),@created_by nvarchar(10),@created_dttm datetime,@task_unit_id decimal(5,0),@signature_required nvarchar(1))DELETE FROM task_steps WHERE t

Hi I am trying to connect FSM to PSO . The documentation says that////////////// The Scheduling Gateway (WCF) and Scheduling Web Interface are now deprecated andwill be removed in a future release. As such, we recommend that new integrations aredeveloped using the Scheduling Restful Gateway (SRG) and that existing integrationsare also migrated to use the SRG.///////////how do you connect fsm to PSO using Restful Gateway?Thank you,Charalampos

Hi,Can we define a single Client script for both Smart Client & Web Client ? 

According to another post here, when it comes to auto generating a rota, PSO will use the last shift template currently used against the resource to extend out the shifts.This has no problem working in most environments, but in 1 client’s environment, auto generating a rota provides a return of mixed shift templatesFor example: Generated a rota with a resource having a shift called Wed-Sat: 8-6. This was the shift they were given for a month periodthen went to create an auto generate rota for the following month. PSO gave the resource 2 separate shift templates for that month period.This resource had no ROTA hours prior to this so the shifts we initially made were the first shifts they've ever received. We believe the issue is ROTA related as if we take export the modeling data and import it into a new dataset within the same environment, the issue does not return. If we export the rota and modeling date, import that into a new dataset - the issue remains.Can’t find anything in the XML
