    Inventory Quantity functionality2
    Topic posted March 19, 2019 by Maria MarinouGreen Ribbon: 100+ Points, tagged Inventory / Parts 
    Title:
    Inventory Quantity functionality
    Summary:
    when install message scenario is triggered twice for the same activity and same inventory item , quantity is being added
    Content:

    Hello OFSC experts, 

    I am facing an issue with field "quantity" . Any advice is welcome.

    For example: 

    1)Available items for a specific non-serialized inventory are 5. 

    2) Technician inserts 2. 

    3) Install message scenario is triggered with quantity 2

    4)At the same activity and same inventory, Technician installs another 1.

    5)Install message scenario is triggered with quantity 3 instead of 1.

    Actually, when install message scenario is triggered twice for the same activity and same inventory item , quantity is being added ( 2+1)

    Can you provide any solution for quantity value in order to work independently ?

    Regards, 
    Maria Marinou

    Monitoring Tool Compatible with OFSC
    Summary:
    How can we integrate Monitoring Tool which are Compatible with OFSC
    Content:

    Hi OFSC Guru's

        Can any of the Guru's of OFSC tell, if there is any compatible tool's available to monitor OFSC like number activities for the complete day ( with the status transition) through which we can build customized reports, for better understanding. We need for Routing, how many routing plans have been run throughout the day in the form of % . WorkOrder per regions, As per i know we do not get the access to the OFSC DB so we can query the DB and get the results. If we can monitor the network, if OFSC is running slow. 

    Please provide some solution regarding this, as we need to monitor many of the fields.

     

    Thank you

    We would like to be able to see the records on a screen (inventories on mobility) with a condition applied: Only view the ones with a certain flag checked. We cant seem to find this from the documentation and we are wondering that this might not be supported. Would there be a way to implement this?

    Use the exchange message notification3
    Topic posted January 18, 2019 by Vi GioutBronze Medal: 1,250+ Points, tagged API / Integration, Configuration, Inventory / Parts 
    Title:
    Use the exchange message notification
    Summary:
    Add custom fields to the two inventory blocks
    Content:

    We would like to use the exchange functionality between inventories. The case would be for a technician to replace a mulfunctioned client inventory item with one of his own inventory pool. 
    Since we are integrating with Oracle Supply Chain Management, we would like to raise notifications to inform the Oracle Integration Cloud Service of the transaction. 

    Can we add custom fields to the two inventory blocks. How do I refer to them respectively? The documentation only mentions about id and serial number and we havent managed to make it work with anything else, even with vanilla properties such as inventory type

    OOTB features, limitations and Customization Options for Field Service
    Summary:
    What are the customization options available for Field Service
    Content:

    I am trying to evaluate Oracle field service cloud for the out of the box functionalities, its limitations and customization options. So far i know following:

    Features:

    • Activity Setup & Management
    • Inventory & Resource setup
    • Forecasting
    • Routing rules
    • Mobile application
    • Notifications ability

    Customizations :

    No real customization option available other than plugin which is just like calling outbound webservice.

    Limitations:

    • Limited to 04 entities only.
    • Cannot define custom entity
    • Cannot mention which services items technician is going to deploy on the customer site (e.g. Activity to Service Items relation: 1:M)
    • Cannot write script behind custom buttons

    Dear experts, please can you extend the list and also make corrections of mine? thanks

    Return to Inventory screen from Plugin4
    Topic posted December 7, 2018 by Richard LairdBronze Medal: 1,250+ Points, tagged Configuration, Inventory / Parts, Mobility / Mobile Apps 
    Title:
    Return to Inventory screen from Plugin
    Content:

    Hi,

    We've written a plugin within our Inventory screens which we're using to search for stock, using the barcode scanner. Using the OOTB tool wasn't suitable as we need to provide additional validation on what's being scanned.

    I'm looking to see how we can take the properties we've obtained from our search and Return from the plugin into the Inventory Details screen, using the ID's we've found when searching. Is this possible? The documentation suggests it's not which is disappointing. 

    I found this thread, but not able to see how this can be done using the 'invid'; would it also change the backScreen parameter? If this could be done, could it also be used to return to 'add_to_deinstalled' screens should an item not be found?

    Product documentation

    Thanks

    Mobile Form OR Plugin to Pull Inventory4
    Topic posted November 30, 2018 by AdamSilver Medal: 2,000+ Points, tagged Configuration, Inventory / Parts, Mobility / Mobile Apps, Resource Management 
    Title:
    Mobile Form OR Plugin to Pull Inventory
    Summary:
    We need to pull inventory from the activity in mobility application
    Content:

    In one of our requirements, we need to push all the inventory items to the mobility application so that when field technician logs in with his tablet he can see all the inventory which was part of the activity and also he can add multiple inventory items by himself. We are not sure if we can achieve this by using mobile forms or we need to build a plugin for this. For better understanding, Here are the exact requirements:

    • Supervisor will create an Activity (say A1)
    • Supervisor will ad inventory items (item1, item2, item3) required to perform this activity
    • Supervisor will assign a technician(T1) and Truck(TR1) to the activity. He can assign multiple Ts and TRs. 
    • Activity will be scheduled and dispatched.
    • Technician(T1) will login into the application and open the Activity(A1)
    • T1 will perform A1 and once A1 is finished he will open A1 in the tablet and there will be a screen(S1) that will show all the inventory items along with their prices. Sort of invoice.
    • S1 will also display technicians and Trucks that were used.
    • T1 may add additional inventory items that were not part of the A1 that T1 used for the completion of A1 but they were not part of the A1.

    At this point, we are not sure if we can use mobile forms to achieve above or we need to build a plugin for this? Please let me know if I missed something to clear the requirement so that i will add more info.

    Thanks
