New Features and Enhancements

Now, you can add additional forms to the Work Order like checklist, inspection entry or review forms depending on the Work Order status.

For example, when working on a Work Order if the form is not available to capture the required data, you can modify the Work Order and add the relevant forms.

After you Submit/Accept the form, you can now capture the form details in PDF format and attach it to the Work Order for future reference. Such forms are added to the Attachments tab from where you can either download or review them any time.

Now, you need not manually enter the search criteria each time to filter the records. Once you define the search criteria, you can Save it as a favorite and search records quickly. For example, if you work for multiple Work Centers, you can define search criteria for each Work Center and save it as favorite to filter your jobs specific to that Plant/Location.

You can now evaluate the condition of the equipment/asset using measuring point production resource tools (PRTs) associated with an Operation. The measuring points are fetched to the mobile application only if the Work Order Operation is created using task list. While confirming an Operation, you must post the measuring document with readings for these measuring points.

For example, when doing maintenance for a freezing equipment, you need to capture the readings from components/instruments like regulator (measuring point). You can collect all such data and post them to measurement documents when confirming an Operation to ensure the problem is resolved.

Now, you can choose to login to the application as a Supervisor or Technician.

Based on the role assigned to you, only the Work Orders and Operations that you (technician) are responsible for are shown on the dashboard. If you are a supervisor, you can track the status of Work Orders and Notifications using the analytics dashboard.

As a supervisor, you can now assign Work Orders and Work Order Operations to technicians based on their availability and Work Center from the back office using the Schedule Work Orders module.

Configure validations to hide irrelevant fields based on the value selected in the Source field. For example, you can hide Functional Location for Notifications of Type M1. This feature is applicable for static, standard and extension fields configured using RACE.

App is now integrated with latest LatLonGO SDK to provide increased stability and performance. Also, improved visibility of GIS locations where maintenance activity is required. GIS Map is loaded based on the zone configured for the user in ECC custom table.

For example, if the user is assigned to work in the Northern zone of the facility, the GIS map shows only the equipments or work locations for that zone.

Libraries for UI5 application are upgraded to version 1.71.

Application is now compatible with latest versions of Android X and 10.

App is now compatible with Xcode 11.3 libraries.

Application is now compatible with SMP SDK SP16 library.

Scan icon is revamped across the application.

App does not prompt you for Security Password when you login using SAML authentication and create or modify records.

For example, if you want to create a Work Order for an Equipment and you remember the equipment name partially, you can do the wildcard search in Equipment dropdown field that is configured as Search Text Field (STF) in RACE.

Bug fixes and improvements are applied thereby increasing stability and performance across the application to get things done faster.

You can now create a Work Order with multiple forms like checklist, inspection entry forms based on the Order Type, Priority and Planning Plant combination specified.

App is now integrated with latest LatLonGO SDK to provide increased stability and performance. Also, improved visibility of GIS locations where maintenance activity is required.

GIS Map is loaded based on the zone configured for the user in ECC custom table. For example, if the user is assigned to work in the Northern zone of the facility, the GIS map shows only the equipments or work locations for that zone.

You can now create an emergency Work Order from the GIS Map by tapping on the equipment (Object).

Bug fixes and improvements are applied thereby increasing stability and performance across the application to get things done faster.

Now, you can configure drop-down fields as Search Text Fields which allow you to use Wildcard feature to filter field values. This a RACE configurable feature.

Following changes are implemented for data synchronization when you use the app in Online and Offline modes:

• Now, subsequent refresh takes much less time with updated/created records.
• Sync is initiated when RACE filters or User Preferences are updated.
• Manual/Auto refresh initiates Delta Sync.
• After initial sync is successful, if you lose connectivity, you can do offline transactions and refresh delta quickly when you connect to the network.
• You can view updated records immediately after creating/updating the new/existing records.

You can now set customized filters to sync/view only the data that you want based on your roles and authorizations. This can be configured using RACE.

You can now assign multiple technical objects such as Equipment, Functional Location or Notification to a single Work Order. For example, if maintenance is to be performed on similar equipment, functional location instead of creating multiple Work Orders, you can create a single WO and assign multiple Notifications to it using the Object tab.

The Code Group drop-down values now appear based on object such as Equipment or Functional Location linked to the Catalog profile. This is a RACE configurable feature.

For example, if the Notification Object Profile parameter is enabled in RACE, the code group values are displayed based on Equipment and Functional Location.

• Reset your username/password.
