Status Planned for future release
Workspace IBM MAS - Spatial
Created by Guest
Created on Jul 16, 2013

Allow asset to be precedent for spatial position on work order/ service request

Business case requires that Work orders have asset assigned - and that spatial position of the asset should determine the position of the work order point feature. Functioned as desired in version 7.1.1.6
7.5 functionality places precedence on the service address value, creating the work order point on the address position rather than the asset.

    This is a critical issue for us.When viewing the work order on the map, the map should zoom to the asset rather than the address. We require our crews to attach work orders to an asset if at all possible. The address associated with the work order is used only as input for driving directions. Often the asset can be several hundred feet away from the nearest address assigned to the work order. Our users have to hunt on the map for the asset or open the map directly from the asset map dialog which is awkward and not as functional as the Map tab.
    Preferably it would be best to have this as a configurable setting where you could specify the search order preference.

    This is how it worked for us in 7.1 before our recent upgrade to 7.5. I would have thought it would be relatively easy to change it back or make it an option. Why was it changed in 7.5?
