Add SKDPROJECT.SITEID and display on Graphical Work Week, Graphical Scheduling, Graphical Assignment and Graphical Resource View list to allow filtering by site to narrow down the appropriate records in SKDPROJECT for use.

For generation utilities scheduling, assignment, etc. is usually done by site. Currently there is no way to separate out Schedules, Work Lists or Resource Lists other than including a Site identifier as part of the SKDPROJECT.NAME and/or the SKDPROJECT.DESCRIPTION which is totally different than most filtering in Maximo.

Our generation sites have ~6 Draft or Active GS schedules, 4-30 GWW work lists, etc. each at any given time and sorting through all of them within an app is tedious particularly if a SKDPROJECT.NAME did not capture the site acronym correctly.

Adding the siteid field should not impact the use of these apps at org level but would provide the ability to capture meta data on to group the schedule, work list or resource list records within a Graphical app.

    Hi Wesley, thanks for that comment. I will follow up with our developers about possibilities on that once Scheduler was always thinking at the Org level data, but as you mention and describe scoping it to Site will improve performance. Thanks for the detail.

    Our Graphical Work Week takes about 3 minutes to load a work list, and we think the reason is because the stieid is not included along with historyflag and the dates. We can include this in our work query, but it is applied in subclasues in the where clause that do not help to narrow the records before the database joins the workorder table back onto itself to find the work orders and tasks on those work orders. Having a siteid on a work list and applying that higher in the where clause would reduce the query run time to 300ms. We would very much like this improvement.
