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

I have a customer who is getting the below message and their non prod environment is unusable.

Hi All, Is it possible to customize a report in a more beautiful “manner”, different then the Ad Hoc Reports or the standard UI that is used OOTB? Could this be done in a simple way ? Or potentially requires a project with .NET Framework and in this case is it possible to upload it to the FSM? Best Regards,Frederico Mendes

Can we have a sample format for REST API and ODATA, how to use them in FSM6 update 4?

Hello, I have asked this question before but I would like to get final confirmation that IFS Cloud does not currently support the ability to schedule workflows to get run. Workflows can only be run via an event action or projection action. Is this correct? Everything else is a work around that IFS Cloud is not intended to do.  Thanks,Bryan

Hi,I have to get the access token from External system to FSM.I have tried in two ways but it didn’t worked as expected. can someone guide me on thisFirst Way:Step 1:Message Routing Rule: with handler OAuth2ExtractHandler and connector: JsonOutboundConnector with following detailsMessage Routing RuleStep 2:Xml Maps I temporarily use Request table as Primary Tablewithout mappingsXML MapStep 3:While testing, I got below error. Same i tried with Post man and got access token. but in FSM its not working and not returning any access token instead it throws error “Bad Request”

We have recently upgraded to FSM 6UPD9 to make use of the ODATA REST APIs in order to integrate our external applications with FSM. Very often we are getting a request channel timeout while using the ODATA REST API’s. Once this starts every call fails. Message:Error occurred while getting EDM model from app server.System.TimeoutException: The request channel timed out while waiting for a reply after 00:00:59.9970047. Increase the timeout value passed to the call to Request or increase the SendTimeout value on the Binding. The time allotted to this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout. The ODATA rest API's makes a call to the FSM server "<perform_get_updated_odata_edm>" to get the data model. It basically asks for the database table structure of ~1200 tables in FSM, which looks to be a very time-consuming operation. We have observed that the ODATA API attempts to ref

I have this problem with implementing a business case. The case I have is as follows. In task_steps I have filled in a quantity (lets call it x) in user_def_num1 for step_id =66 This task_steps record with a quantity needs to be processed by the business rules and add a non_part_usage record.  My business rule needs to output the quantity if it is higher then 25 and then create the non_part_usage record with a quantity of x - 25.  I am trying to do this with an XML business rule, but I am aware that I need to use some expression. I only do not know how to do that. This is my code which needs to insert the record. As you can see I fetch the quantity with an xpath_node from an hierarchy_select result called ‘result01’. Without the expression stuff it gives me the quantity, but I need to subtract 25 from this value. <update_non_part_usage> <non_part_usage> <request_id>@re

Noticed that the mm_message_out table which contains mobile messages doesn't seem to get cleaned up. What process does the actual cleanup of the mm_message_out table?

Hi Team, I am getting the error as “Http failure response for api/fsm/insertUpdate: 0 Unknown Error” while using client script for web instance. I am using updateRow function in my client script. Even though the data is updated as expected but the error keeps coming on screen.

Can anyone please guide me what is the use of MPM in FSM and how it works in our application? one normal sample will be very helpful.

We have the below XML being triggered from a business rule, after commit insert or update on the TASK table.  This XML creates a new address (using a custom view) and updates the address_id of the task.  We sometimes see that,  if there are 2 TASK’s created almost at the same time (with just 1 second delay or less than 1 second delay)  then both the task’s  are updated with the same address id.    The below expression that is updating the address_id returns the same address_id in  both cases.  <address_id xpath_node="//update_address_result[@result_name='update_tmfb_address']/address/address_id" />   However we see in the database that 2 new address_id are created but the both the task’s are updated with only 1 of them.    So basically when we have 2 similar tasks created at the same time then this business rule executes 2 times and the expression “//update_address_result[@result_name='update_tmfb_address']/addres

in one of our NON-PROD environments (luckily :-)), we encounter issue when updating a TASK record, always get below error the first time the record is updated.  The second time the same record is updated, it doesn’t get this exception error. We noticed it from mobile side.  The first update is not transferred to mobile.  After the 2nd update, then the modification is visible in mobile. Server log of fist update will show this exception.  The server log 2nd update doesn’t contain this exception.Message: The following error was encounter when attempting to export a task record with the key task_id=[task_id].Exception:System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.   at Metrix.BusinessServer.BusinessPolicies.BusObjectPolicy.AddExportColumnData(MetrixDataRow rowIn, BusObject tableMetadataIn, XmlDocument& outboundMessageInOut, XmlElement& primaryNodeIn

After a fresh FSM Installation or upgrade, mobile is not syncing, remains "Syncing" for ever.

Hi Experts, There is a requirement to get the current web client URL to perform LaunchBrowser operation in client script.Var link = “Current URL’?task.task_id=” +taskID; var taskID = getControlValue('task','task_id');if(taskID!='' && taskID!=null){ var link="Current URL?task.task_id="+taskID; launchBrowser(link);}else{ alert(getMessage('Error in Opening Tab','Information'));}Is there a way to achieve this using existing client script functions? Thanks,Hasara
