Hi All,

 

I am having issues with starting a work task on the MWO application.

 

IFS system:

 

I’ve used the microsoft store and downloaded both IFS MWO Service and IFS MWO Maintenance. I was able to login with both systems and both systems synchronized. And I managed to assign a Work Task to mobile and download it. I was also able to ‘accept’ the task.

 

But when I try to click ‘Start Work’ I get an error:

Initially with MWO Service I got a different error

 

​@Alexander Heinze , if you would have any insights to this issue, that would be fantastic!

 

Best Regards

Roel Timmermans

Hi, 

It seems this is a mismatching between request management and WO management. Your assignment is related to WO-WT. But, the error message is about Request Task. Which type Workflow Configuration you are using?

Dear ​@kasunhp 

Yes, i also think it has to do with some kind of misalignment with regards to Work tasks / Request Tasks.

 

I am using the classic Service/Maintenance functionality (no Request Management). The implementation is focused solely on internal maintenance - no external customers.

 

Best Regards

​@Timmermans Roel 

Can you see a field “Configuration Applied” in you task details in MWO? If so can you show a screenshot of the header of that workflow configuration?

HI ​@kasunhp 

 

So when I use IFS MWO Service - I am unable to access the Task details in MWO. When I click the task itself I get the SLA Error.

 

When I click on ‘Travel’, or ‘Start Work’  I get another error

 

 

Switching to IFS MWO Maintenance does allow me to go into the Work Task Details:

But I don’t see ‘Configuration Applied’ anywhere…. :-(

 

Clicking ‘Start Work in IFS MWO Maintenance gives the error:

 

Best Regards
