Good Afternoon - Can anyone advise how Fields can be enlarged within the Mobile Work Order App - I would like to increase the size of the Performed Action Text Box - Many thanks

We have managed to get Absence Requests to appear on the Aurena Notify Me app from Apps10 Upd 12. We can approve OK but if we try to reject, it asks for a rejection reason. It offers a search field but we cannot click in it or type in it.I believe that the list of rejection reasons have not been synchronised with the device.Does anyone know how to make this happen?ThanksPaul

In IFS 9 service we are currently using the RMB to Hold a transaction for a manager to approve if we feel they need to approve if it should truly not be charged to the customer or if it was approved the correct account. Once the manager approves it was correct, they move it to To Not Invoiceable and close the work orderIn IFS 10 there does not seem to a be a hold transaction in the invoicing processThis also means in migration everything that we did have held moved to invoiceable. We do not hold all things for managers, but just some. What are some suggestions for what to do instead now?

I have created a Check in To Document Management report rule in IFS that stores a copy of a customer invoice pdf file to the logical unit CustomerOrderInvHead.This feature successfully attaches the customer invoice pdf in our DEV10 UPD10 environment which is using a repository type Database, the attached file can be opened and viewed.After implementing this feature in our PROD10 UPD10 environment which is using a Shared repository type the report rule feature does attach the customer invoice pdf file but users are unable to view or open it. The pdf file is also not being added to the shared repository. The error message they receive is “Failed to read the file from the file system repository \\example\path_name_here\invoice.pdf (the system cannot find the file specified)”

Hi Everyone. We have a customer in India who would like to use our Primavera integration with Apps10.They are asking if they can have a quick call and see how our existing customer using the same integration to Primavera uses it.Just checking if anyone out there know of an existing customer that we can use as a reference and that we can ask for a customer call. Thank you and best regards.

HiI have a query around Condition based PM’s in Apps 8. We have a number of PM’s set up for run time hours on engines, with an interval of 250 hours connected to a test point with an accumulative parameter. This is working fine and producing work orders every 250 hours, however, what we would like to occur is a work order to be generated with a planned value of +250 from the last recorded reading, for example if the last recorded reading was 12513 the next work order planned value would be 12763. Whereas at the moment it creates a work order +250 from the planned value of the previous work order.Is this possible to achieve in Apps 8? Below is the condition set up we have:

 Hi Community,we are having issue, where a mWO app user cannot see the service contract in mWo when he selected the Customer. we can't think of why..The mobile user is active, connected to proper site, has user per site .... not sure what else?we currently use MWO APPS 10, UPD9Please advise and your contribution will be helpful. Thanks

Hello All,A customer in IFS Cloud 21R2 has an object connection transformation that connects the media and documents from equipment objects to the work task level as below: They have setup this correctly as when they create a work order and add an object, if we go to the task, we can see the images and documents of the object in Aurena. This means the object connection transformation works fine.However in the mobile, in My Work they do not see these attachments. This should be because in the mobile application we are dealing with JtExecutionInstance not JtTask.I understand that this was a limitation in Apps 10. Is it still the same for IFS Cloud? Are there any workarounds for this?Should we create object connection transformation for JtExecutionInstance as well?Thanks and Best Regards,Ibrahim​​​​​​​

Hello,  Trust we are doing fine.  For our system incident management we are using Case Management Module.

Hi, One of our customer has recently reported serious problems with mWO synchronisationBelow is a log from one user In details you can see:Initialize data failed: Error when distributing INIT transaction: (ORA-00001: unique constraint (IFSAPP.MOBILE_OUT_MESSAGE_DATA_UIX) violatedORA-06512: at "IFSAPP.MOBILE_TRANSACTION_PUBLISH_SYS", line 2557ORA-06512: at "IFSAPP.MOBILE_TRANSACTION_PUBLISH_SYS", line 656) Same errors have been reported previously - in log we can see the number of occurence in different days  From users point of view - they get an error on mobile device and just can’t work   After 29.01.2022 seems like backup or restart solved the error but probably only temporarily. What can cause such error? How to diagnose it? Maybe something in configuration is wrong or needs some adjustements? It happens for many users including IFSAPP, not only one user, so it seems like a global problem. Best regards,Hubert

Hi Team,I would like to know is it possible to control the access to the custom field in the MWO through user roles and rights.Business Requirement: As we are using the MWO to handle all different type maintenance work & services, some custom fields are not necessarry to be visible for all the mobile application users using MWOIFS Version : APP10

We have an issue with MWO Maintenance 10: Error Message:Sorry, but we’re having trouble with signing you in.AADSTS50011: The reply URL specified in the request does not match the reply URLs configured for the application:  ‘20b9c03e-28c2-429e-9f5a-fea6d1b27c6c’. If I download the Account Manager 10 and try creating account:enter the System ID and then the TAS URL then click Done the Microsoft login page appears where we enter the email and password then Verify identity with a text message number which is then entered, finally click Verify, it is at this point with either the MWO Maintenance 10 or Account Manager 10 that the same error message appears, shown above appears. 

Is there a good way to hide mandatory field Category from ‘Copy Customer’ function? We only use category ‘Customer’, so if I can default this value in ‘Copy Existing Customer’ function to avoid any error, that can also work.I tried to explore and revoke from permission set using ‘Database Objects’ and ‘Presentation objects by Components’ , no luckwe are using iFS10(IEE only)-UPD9.thanks

Hi all.I’m in a situation that there is a failed transaction that has been deleted and the user can do nothing with the work task assignment that remains in work started.The mobile user already initialized the app but the work task does not appear anymore and no one can change the assignment status even in IEE or in Aurena. How may I resolve this situation? Trying to change the status in IEE or Aurena with the same user got the message: “not allowed to change status when the work Assignment is downloaded to a mobile device” Apps 10 UPD8Mobile is mWorkOrder 4.8Tks for attention.  

I have only selected the resource group as a requirement for a work task. However, I cannot see the unassigned task in the My Work screen. As soon as I assign the task to myself, I also see it under my assignments. The ifsapp can also see the unassigned work. Does anyone know what permission or setting my user is missing? (Apps10)

@kathlk wrote in post on mWO initializtionWhen working with mWO in combination with IFS10 it seems that every time I disconnect and connect to the mWO application an initialization is started. It takes roughly 20 minutes. Bizar high number of minutes of course. I hope that scheduling will help.Kathlk wrote:'Concurrent initialization could also affect the server performance because of server start processing data in parallel. Also this could effect on Touch App Server as well. Scheduled Activation is recommended when customer need to roll out new devices. This will reduce the impact on concurrent initializations activities. With scheduled activation, customer can pre initialize new devices in advance which can be scheduled as batches in the back office. So when a new user activate his device, he download pre initialized data from the server.'Just wondering, where is this described how to schedule activation as batches? In other words: which steps should one take to  schedule lets say 10

All,we are planning on deploying the CRM Companion App for our users but the fact that Deletes are allowed in all entities on this app is a bit concerning. What is the best way to deploy this app with View only instead of updates and deletes?TIA, JP

Documentation says that Standard Task Materials can be Inventory or Purchase Parts. However, when trying to raise new Request with Purchase Part the service raises the error : The part no CM-P-01 is not an inventory partThe mentioned part is setup as Purchase Part only and connected to Standard Task, which is associated to the Service. Do we think this could be bug or could there be anything missing in the setup? Setup
