We are currently working on upgrading from IFS Applications 10 UPD 22 to IFS Cloud 25R2 (EAM Solution Set).
We have noticed that the Dispatch Control functionality is not available in our solution.
Previously, we purchased Maintenance Planning Board as the recommended solution for planning and scheduling in IFS Applications 10. However, we later learned that the product was being deprecated, received limited enhancements, and ultimately did not meet our operational requirements.
Now we understand that Resource Monitoring Gantt has also been deprecated in IFS Cloud 25R2 and does not appear to have a direct replacement.
Could you please advise on the following:
What is the recommended alternative for organizations using the EAM Solution Set that do not have access to Dispatch Control / Dispatch Console?
Are there any plans to make equivalent functionality available within the standard EAM Solution Set?
If Dispatch Console is the strategic replacement, what licensing or product components are required to enable it?
We would appreciate your guidance, as resource planning and scheduling are key operational requirements for our maintenance teams, and the deprecation of both Maintenance Planning Board and Resource Monitoring Gantt leaves a significant functional gap.
