I’m not sure it is. If we use Book Appointment, the tasks come over fine. But if we manually schedule in FSM (assigned a planned start date and owner) then the task does not appear in PSO IF the planned start date is +30 days into the future, despite both methods of scheduling creating the same Primary Time Commitment. I have attempted toggling on DoNotSchedule in each instance with no effect. What is the length of the scheduling window (dynamic window + appointment window) ? have you checked the PSO audits to see if the activity is being transferred from FSM->PSO?
Interestingly, if i then make changes in PSO to fix the date and resource, PSO sends an Unallocation event to FSM: Is the activity also unallocated in PSO? If it is fixed to a date and date and resource this should be impossible.
Hi Andy,I assume this is an FSM-PSO integration? The first question I need to ask is - is the activity you are trying to view visible in PSO at all ? Check the Activities screen in the scheduling workspace and and the exceptions, perhaps it is unplanned or there is a data error preventing it from being scheduled?I notice on the the activities view above you aren’t including ‘do not schedule’ activities - perhaps the status has been set to DoNotSchedule?Regards,Tom
Hi, yes - the Ignore status in FSM maps to DoNoSchedule in PSO.Kind Regards,Tom
Hi, yes you can do this as you have highlighted above. Can I just confirm the behaviour you want is to transfer tasks to PSO in a status of DoNotSchedule? Presumably you want to do this and then manually plan the activities in PSO ?
Hi Lorenzo, there isn’t a list of errors output to the event logs but it looks like the services are not able to retrieve the information they need from the database. Is this an environment hosted by IFS, if so I would raise a ticket with the cloud team.
Hi Markus,Person Calendar Exceptions in FSM should transfer to PSO as a private activity thus blocking out that period of time for the resource in PSO. It may be possible to build an integration from Outlook to FSM so that the person calendar exceptions are created automatically but I’m afraid I can’t help advise on that point.Thanks,Tom
1) Start by navigating to Application Base Setup->Enterprise->Person->Person and search for the Person record. Then click on address and add a new address:Enter the address details manually, the open map button only seems to open google maps, it can’t be used to select a location from the map as the address:2) Cloud only supports geocoding of location address so we need to create the map position via Application Base Setup->Map Services->Basic Data->Map Positions manually using the following syntax:ADDRESS_ID=youraddressid^PERSON_ID=yourperson^Make sure that LU name is PersonInfoAddress3) Navigate to Service->Scheduling->Basic Data->Scheduling Basic Data->Scheduling Resources and edit your scheduling resource to add the address start and end:When you save make sure you don’t get a popup saying there is no map position connected. Hope that helps,Tom
Hi Bjorn,You may already know this but datetime isn’t a valid datatype in PSO for Addtional_Attribute:If you believe FSM should convert fields holding a timetime value to a string please raise this as a support case with IFS.Kind Regards,Tom
Hi,Have you looked to see if this is possible by using the FSM appointment booking API or even bypassing FSM and using the Appointment endpoint of the PSO RESTful gateway?Regards,Tom
Hi,Can you clarify the problem a bit please? Are you saying that when you click on the resource’s row in the gantt there is no pop up displayed like the one below from where you can reach the resource details (circled):Thanks,Tom
Hi Jithesh,I’m not aware of anything out of the box. PSO is stateless so is only aware of the data it is being fed from the sending system (FSM in this case). If you aren’t sending those tasks to PSO it won’t know about them. Are the schedule board tasks fixed to a date and time? If so then why not send them to PSO so they are included in the schedule?Thanks,Tom
@Sajith Anushan I have configured the Object Group and it is working fine for the Planning section but under Scheduling section, I can still see Resource data/ Activity data for other object groups. Is it expected behaviour? Then how to restrict data under Scheduling tab? Is there any option apart from using filters? Hi Shamika,Check which groups your workbench user belongs to, perhaps they are in the groups associated with that data. Also, if data (resource or activity) doesn’t belong to an object group it will be visible to all.Regards,Tom
Hi Kamel,I’ve just tested on the latest release - 6.10.0.10 and it worked for me. Make sure you are checking the latest time stamped update on the history (I updated the duration from 35 to 47 minutes):The time stamp is when the system was updated with the changeRegards,Tom
Hi Kamel,Which system is sending the data to PSO ?It looks to me like the SLA for a BREAK class of activity is being included with the SLA for the actual job (activity of class CALL).Perhaps there has been a misconfiguration in the external application providing the input to PSO ?Thanks,Tom
Hi Durga,Can you check the process type on the load file being sent to PSO please, this is on the Input_Reference entity in the load file.Also - check the values of the parameters: perhaps these are set to too short a value, these should only be applied to static or reactive datasets though as far as I’m aware (which is why I’m interested in the process type).Thanks,Tom
Hi,You use the FSM status id (these are mapped to a PSO status in the TASK_STATUS code table).Thanks,Tom
Hi Andy,If I understand correctly, you are asking how to set the status an activity is updated to when an appointment request is made from FSM (but before an offer has been accepted) ?If so then the FSM scheduling app param APPT_TASK_STATUS_VALUE is used to define this status.Hope that helps,Tom
Hi Jose,There is a rule commit override for areas with lack of coverage.If you use this commit rule you can increase the number of activities sent to the mobile and the time horizon if a location is known to have poor mobile coverage (such as an underground location).Hope that helps,Tom
@tomgreenwood Are you looking in UPD18? I too cannot see it in UPD18 but miraculously re-appear in UPD19. I think it is UPD18, I can’t log in at the moment to check
Hi Minindu, In Global Codes, there is a table named OBJECT_GROUP. You need to first create the Group IDs there. This will be transferred to PSO System data through initialization. Then you can connect the object group id in Task screen (under Scheduling tab). Then this will transfer to PSO real time. Regards, Sajith Hi @Sajith Anushan , I can’t see a field for an object group on the scheduling tab of the task screen, can you point to where it is please?Thanks,Tom
Hi Darrell, in all honesty I do not. It is looking increasingly like the cause of this error as you say so I will dig out the details of the customisation.
Hi Daniel,I think the changes you are proposing look sensible and should help to clear out the unwanted sessions. I’m guessing you might have already made this change as the post is 3 months old, if so - how did you get on ?How many workbench users do you have on the system and how many QMS services ? There shouldn’t be more than approximately 25 users per QMS, if there are then additional QMS services will be needed.Finally, it looks like you are on an old version as you are using the silverlight version of the workbench so I recommend upgrading to the latest release of PSO 6 update 9.Kind Regards,Tom
Hi Simen,There are many factors to consider with performance so it’s not an easy question to answer without knowing all of the background information, for instancehow long is the scheduling window? are you appointment booking which version of PSO are using etc.To start with I would check out the ‘Data Sizing’ section in the Architecture and Sizing Guide (latest version attached). You can see from that the sizing you have indicated should be schedulable within a single dataset, however depending on the data complexity you may need to make some changes to get the best performance from the system. I would also ensure you are on the latest release of PSO (update 9) as there are some performance enhancements for the workbench in that release.If you are unsure please reach out to IFS for help from a consultant.Kind RegardsTomp.s. the rota issue potentially sounds like a bug, it is designed so that multiple users can work on the same rota at the same time (although this isn’t recommended for
Hi @tomgreenwood When we restrict the number of slots to be returned - in Schedule App params (APPT_BOOKING_MAX_OFFERS) and in PSO (the number of slots in appointment templates) - are we restricting both slots that returned with availability true or false, or just the number of slots with availability equal to true? Thank you for your help, Joana Machado The restriction is for all slots whether there is availability or not.
