Service (Touch Apps, MWO, MRO)

Hi Team,Is there a way we can Force Initialize the mWO app from back office (i.e., Cloud application)? Similar to how we had in FSM using the mobile dashboard.In Cloud, we see the option ‘Test Initialization’ in Mobile App User Details screen. But I assume it does only for one user and not for multiple users. Please let me know. Kind RegardsPriyanka Cecilia

Hi,We have a Crystal Reports quick report that we would like to email to several users on a daily basis.I know this is possible with SQL Statement Quick Reports, but is it possible with Crystal Report ones?Our IFS version is Apps 10 UPD 17. Any help would be appreciated.

We are unable to use IFS Notify Me 9 and Incident Reporter 9 on newer Samsung (Android) devices since the last google play system update on the 1st April 23.We offer up our own touch apps server, so existing users are unaffected but any new ones are not able to use the mobile apps.Does anyone know what happened here? Is there play to backdate the support for these apps?I read the master article, and it seems that there can be some lag in updates but I dont want to lose the functionality altogether.

Hello,In the Cloud application, when we look at the screen ‘Survey Answers’, the entity ‘SurveyAnswersEntity’ is not visible when we search in the Entity screen.Rather, another entity ‘SurveyAnswer’ is visible and the ‘Answer’ attribute has a field length of 4000 characters.But when we view the entity ‘JtTaskSurveyAnswers’ which is sent to mobile, the ‘Answer’ attribute has a field length of only 2000 characters for an Open-ended question.Is there a way we could increase the field length of the ‘Answer’ attribute for an Open-ended question to 4000 characters in mobile? Please let me know. Kind RegardsPriyanka Cecilia

Community,It is a dilemma for us for those objects that are returned from customer for repair. current our process isuse RMA to return the product from customer. the object ownership is set to Company Owned after RMA is completed. Working on a work order to have the product repaired (replace components) and received into stock.  Repaired object(product) is showing company owned and in inventory position.now the comes the problem, how to set the object location to customer location without doing a customer order? I believe we are not doing the right way from the very beginning. when customer return for service, it should not go with RMA? if a service request is created against a customer order line, does a work order will trigger purchase order to bring the object to our company with ownership Customer Owned?Would like to hear from you to rectify our process. Thank you.

Currently (23r1) we only allow a single quote to be attached to any Request.I am encountering scenarios where we would want multiple quotes per request.  Is there any plan to add this flexibility?Scenario:There’s an initial fault, for which a quote is issued (and accepted) so work can begin.  While performing that work, further damage is discovered to another part of the assembly, and the desire is to create a second scope with its own quote for that additional work.  Work should be able to continue on the original scope, which was already approved, whether or not the customer accepts the second scope quote. 

Hello Team,We have the below requirement in mobile:If the technician has any Assignment in their work list with the next status as ‘Pause’ while the technician has started their Break from the ‘Show Breaks’ screen, we would like to automatically change the Assignment status to ‘Pause’.

HiHow can I apply calendar in dispatch screen? I setup a calendar that has 12 hrs per working day from 6 am to 6 pm, so if task duration is 15 hrs, I expect it to go over 2 days but when I drag & drop the task against the resource in dispatch console, it shows only 1 day (considering 24 hrs of work). The resource is tied with that calendar.

We currently have approximately 90 different workflow configurations intended to drive different eforms being presented to technicians based on specific criteria.  All of these workfows are “Work Task” configuration type.  This is currently working as intended.  However, we have come up with certain scenarios that require some items be mandatory that cannot be properly made mandatory utilizing current system capabilities.We are therefore looking to experiment with the Workflow Type of “Configured Work Task”.  But I seem to be having an issue getting these to trigger inside of mWO.  I have mirrored one of the workflows that we currently have as far as the filters and sites are concerned, then disabled any of our workflows that may overwrite this one.But for some reason, the system would rather choose no workfow config at all rather than choose my Configured one.  Is there something I am missing somewhere?  I cannot seem to find any real documentation on how to properly utilize this feat

Currently we use Maint Orgs to limit what objects a user can see in MWO.  This works for most of our employees, however, we have a few who can see more than they should.  How do we rectify this situation?

The majority of our in field staff we use the iOS IFS CRM Application when visiting customer site. It was noticed that the app has been unavailable and upon internal investigation, it appears that there is an issue relating to the IFS Cloud Downlink URL within the IFS Cloud Uplink Service Configuration. We have documented some screen shots of the error we are receiving when trying to start the up link service and what we believe is the issue. My question here is that are you aware of IFS decommissioning any services or do you know anyone that could confirm if there were any plans to decommission. We didn't receive any notification so am a little confused as to why it's suddenly gone.We are in App 7.5

Hi,Could someone tell me, if there is currently available an environment for mobile work orders bug verification and reporting? Previously it was 10rndmobtstlkp.ifsworld.com - seems like it’s down - after entering TAS I get an error opening logon page (lkpgse1603…….) Customer has reported a problem during opening service report after finishing work in mWO (APP10). It happens for 3 users till now, but I was also able to recreate it on my iPad using customer PROD environment, After finishing your work there is a question to open service report. For my first work everything seemed to be OK. But during second and next works, even if I click Cancel system doesn’t allow to get further or close the dialogue.  The only way is to close the application (by killing it) and reopen again. The finish or back or X buttons are inactive,On already finished work orders there is no problem with viewing service report. But now, even I click Cancel, the mWO application is stuck. After second time kill, the

One of our Customer’s said they want to Cancel/Close a Customer Order which was created through a Work Order - SM Connection Check box ‘Ticked’ in the Header Level. The Order don’t have any lines at the moment.When they try to Cancel the Header, the system presents some dialog boxes (see below example Screenshots. When trying to Close, it appears to work, but nothing happens - Last Screenshot). they tends to believe that it is possible to Cancel/Close the Order despite the SM Connection (subjected to those conditions mentioned in the dialog boxes of course). Is Cancelling a Customer Order with SM Connection at all possible? If yes, under what conditions?

In our setup, we have 12 difference Sites (split per country) currently if I transfer to mobile and check “Pool Work Order” it goes out to all our engineers globally. And I don’t want someone in Americas to fly to Europe to do a service where we have an engineer within 1 hour drive.Is there a way we can split this up, so it only goes out to the engineers connected to XX site? And not out to all of them? Thank you,Michael
