    Title:
    Copy Image with Geolocation to new activity
    Summary:
    Technicians create service requests for Contruction/Maintenance. Required picture of site with geolocations for maint activity.
    Content:

    Hello,

    We are requiring our technicians to take a picture of a site (with geolocation) when suspending a job for service requested from construction or maintenance departments.  Our middleware will create a new activity when the service request is triggered, but we cannot identify how to load the image geolocation into the new activity as xcoord/ycoord.  We are pulling the location of the activity when a technician is starting and completing, but sometimes a service request is created for a down pole at the intersection or down the street. We want the image geolocation to be applied to the activity created due to a service request.

     

    Thanks, Austin T Keller

    move orders so that they are not considered by routingAnswered1100%

    Title:
    move orders so that they are not considered by routing
    Summary:
    It will be possible to move orders to a type of resource that routing does not consider.
    Content:

    Our client handles suspended orders that can go several days without attending.

    We need to be able to separate these orders from their original buckets and pass them to another one called "suspended" or something similar without routing taking these orders into account.

    They are currently handled in a bucket but, routing when considered, it obviously routes them again.

    The client needs to be able to locate in some type of resource the orders that are suspended and that are not routed by the system. They will manually locate them in the corresponding technician.

    This is possible ?? Is there any alternative?

    Thank you.

    Map Display - Inconsistent Satellite View

    Map Display - Inconsistent Satellite View
    Content:

    Hi All,

    About to raise a SR related to inconsistant maps display in the Core App. Some users cannot toggle between the standard Google maps view and the satellite view - same browser, same version of windows etc. If the user then tries on a different PC it works fine.

    I'm trying to find a potential common link between those who are affected and those who are not.

    Is anyone else having similar issues that may help me to isolate the cause?

    Thanks

    Filtering Activities on the Map ViewAnswered3
    Topic posted June 3, 2019 by Chris PhillipsSilver Medal: 2,000+ Points, tagged Configuration, Mapping 
    Title:
    Filtering Activities on the Map View
    Content:

    Does anybody know if there is a way of filtering activities in the map view when looking at activities assigned to a bucket or another resource. As per the screenshot below, I can currently see all activities on the route which are outstanding in OFSC. A lot of these activities are for different buckets and require different skillsets for the resource that i have selected.

    If its not possible to filter these activities, i feel it makes the map view much less useful and efficient to use. 

    Ideally our users will be able to filter on these activities and based on the filtering criteria, the map view will show jobs which are eligible to be reassigned to the resource selected.

    OFSC Open Source Developments - Data Loader100%

    Title:
    OFSC Open Source Developments - Data Loader
    Content:

    Hello OFSC community. A few have asked me about using the data migration and management tool I built for OFSC. Apologies if I didn't respond, I have just been very busy. I'd like to open source the project, that way we have the best chance of keeping up with the rapid pace of development, and it starts to build a free and healthy open source culture in the community.

    I have some other projects I'd like to open source, including a collaboration event triggering system for the new 19B patch, which I'm very excited about.

    I'm keen to learn if there are others in the community who invest any of their time in an open source group. It would also be good to connect with users, both those who have some spare time to help test, document, and who would like a voice in driving an open source roadmap supplementing OFSC's fantastic capabilities.

    I put a lot of thought into making the data loader as dynamic as possible, which means that it has features like synchronisation with the metadata API, so the moment you add a new field in OFSC, it is available in the tool. I'm working on tools to batch load testing/dummy data for easy routing trials!

    I have a couple of points to iron out on deployment and security with the help of the OFSC team, so if anyone would like to get early access then please get in touch.

    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

    Tech Location
    Summary:
    Without Smart location
    Content:

    Hi Guys,

    I have a question regarding tech location. We haven't procured Smart Location and we want to see the tech's location in only one case that is "when the tech starts an activity". It happens most of the times like they start an activity before reaching to the customer site.

     

     Bes regards

    Geo Location for Bucket resource type5
    Topic posted January 29, 2019 by Madhumitha ThinakaranBlue Ribbon: 750+ Points, tagged Configuration, Mapping, Mobility / Mobile Apps, Resource Management, Routing / Optimization 
    Title:
    Geo Location for Bucket resource type
    Content:

    Hi Gurus,

    Can anyone give a solution for the below scenario.

    Hierachy of the project is like

    Manager

       -> Supervisor

             ->List of technicians

    The Requirement is supervisor will travel in the field to look into technicians work. And also route the activity which the manager assigns to him.

    But while creating a resource type only the bucket has feature to route the activity. So to track the geo location of a supervisor I have to create a field resource later what provision I given in user type routing cannot be done.

    Thanks,

    Madhu

    Title:
    Location visibility
    Content:

    Hi Gurus,

    Kindly let me know how to acheive this scenario.

    CEO of the company should be able to see the technician's location where they work as well as the manager where he is working. Now we are able to see the Technician location!

    I have given Supervisor priveledges to the manager, where the manager can see only his allocated bucket. But his location cannot be seen by CEO.

    How do we make Manager's current  location visible to the CEO.

    Thanks,

    Madhu
