  1. Customers want to be able to add production reporting and operational equipment time reporting to my crew sheet in Crew Time Reporting application.

    Production Reporting in IFS Cloud is done in Schedule of Work Production by WBS where the reporting on these activities is done in Work Recording screens in Cloud.

    Equipment should be tied to a Crew member and production hours should be reported by equipment to be add as a billable line item to the IFS Project.

  2. When data is loaded for a user step, sometimes the user may have to search for data in LOV with large volumes. Eg adding a spare part to a work order.

    Adding such a LOV to a user step may take time to load as the flow wouldn't move to the next step without completing that step. In order to improve the user experience, it is better to have the following;

    1. Load batch-wise
      The user step will get populated once the first 100 records are fetched, and the list has the option to load all or the next 100...

    2. Load…

  3. Currently it is required that the "Allowed File Ending" values are hardcoded when uploading documents to the File Gallery. This rigid setup limits adaptability and increases maintenance efforts, especially when file requirements change frequently.

    Proposed solution is to integrate the capability to accept variable values for specifying allowed file extensions in the File Gallery. This dynamic approach will enable administrators or developers to modify accepted file extensions on-the-fly without the need to alter the flow itself, enhancing flexibility and reducing the need for frequent flow modifications.

  4. The ability to show more than 100 rows per page in a datagrid for a Web NG Client is typically controlled by the settings and configuration of the datagrid component.

    It was available in the old web client but is not present in the NG web client.

  5. Currently in the flow any file (image/ documents) need to be downloaded in to the device before we can view them. Flow does enable displaying images in the user step, but they need to be be deployed into ftp or other hosting location.

    We commonly gets asked from the customers for the possibility of preview/view this documents within the app without needing to downloading to the device.

    Downloading the files to devices will cause files been left in download folders reducing the disc space as well as making too many copies of the sensitive information.

    Some customers has gone to…

  6. When multiple parties are involved in Flow Development (eg Novacura/Partners/Customer) it is essential to control access to different workflows. One of the ways to achieve this is to allow access control to the folders created on the root (and not allowing any workflows/menus to be created without a folder)

  7. The current Now() function in Flow retrieves the time based on the device's local time. This can lead to inconsistencies for users or workflows operating across different time zones. To improve this, there's a need for advanced time manipulation functions and settings.

    Proposed solution is to introduce new functions like Now().utc, allowing users to retrieve time based on specific time zones like UTC. Additionally, integrating a timezone setting for each user in Studio, similar to the existing Language and Locale settings, can ensure consistency and accuracy in workflows, catering to diverse customer needs. This enhancement will grant users greater flexibility…

  8. A lot of times i want to copy + past multiple steps from an existing flow. This is currently only possible for one element OR in Edit mode. If someone else has a non committed working version we cannot even set it to edit mode to copy/paste parts of the flow.

    Same goes for machine/script steps which are larger. Since you are not allowed to scroll you cannot copy the content without setting the flow to edit mode.

    Would be nice to give the possibility to select like in edit mode for both these cases so we can copy whatever…

  9. The Flow app's iOS version currently offers inconsistent barcode scanning performance, especially when barcodes have certain backgrounds. Users experience significant delays and challenges in positioning the device correctly for a successful scan. This poses a problem for customers with large asset tracking needs who prefer to use Apple devices. To address this, integrating a dedicated scanner library for the iOS version will enhance performance, ensuring that it matches or exceeds the capabilities of the Android client.

  10. The existing NFC scanning functionality in the Flow app is limited in terms of advanced capabilities. Users are looking for a more intricate and enhanced scanning solution, paired with a user-friendly and visually appealing admin user interface.

    Proposed solution is an enhanced NFC Scanning where we implement more advanced NFC scanning capabilities. This may include better error handling, faster recognition, and support for a wider range of NFC tags. Allow users to scan multiple NFC tags consecutively without needing to return to the starting interface after each scan. This will significantly improve efficiency for tasks requiring bulk scanning. The admin…

  11. The idea is to allow form creation with built in logic, similar to a the tool used when building a form in SurveyMonkey. You could have Interaction Items for multiple choice, true/false, 1-10 scales, short answer, etc. This would allow customers to build surveys, or in the case of Flow academy design the certification exam. An example of the backend logic would be if you had a question "Did you the instructor covered the material in a clear and concise manner?", and the respondent said "No", then a short answer box would appear next asking them to explain what could…

  12. In the current NG webclient, the GRID columns with "FIT" size mode aren't dynamically adjusting to window resizing. When viewed on full screen, all columns are visible. However, when the window size is reduced, certain columns disappear, forcing users to scroll horizontally.

    Proposed solution is to enable truly responsive design for GRID columns, especially those with the "FIT" size mode. When a user adjusts the window size, columns should auto-adjust their width proportionally, eliminating the need for horizontal scrolling. This ensures a seamless user experience across various window sizes.

  17. In the current implementation, the data grid search functionality searches through all columns, including those that aren't displayed in the data grid or are not set up under "Edit columns."

    Proposed solution is to introduce a customizable search functionality in data grids where users can selectively choose which columns to include in the search. This can be achieved by adding a checkbox option under "Edit columns" labeled as "Searchable". By default, all columns can have the "Searchable" checkbox marked to ensure compatibility with the existing behavior. Users can then choose to deselect certain columns if they don't want them to…

  18. Users have experienced issues with the Offline Menu feature. Even after downloading offline data in the morning, if a user tries to refresh the offline menu for their offline inbox while not connected to the internet, an error occurs. The error message suggests that the internet connection is offline, which is perplexing given the data has already been loaded onto the device.

    Proposed solution is for the Offline Menu and its related features (like the offline inbox) should be fully accessible and operational without an internet connection once the data has been loaded. This means that even if a user…

  19. In the current system, when there's an error in a flow fragment version, navigating to the issue via the Problems window takes the user directly to the fragment version causing the error. While this might seem like a logical approach, it can be counterintuitive in scenarios where multiple versions of flows and fragments are being worked upon concurrently. Users might end up editing older versions of fragments unintentionally.

    Use Case Scenario:
    Consider two flows, A and B, where B is a fragment invoked by A. Both have versions Av1 and Bv1 as the latest. Now, if a new version of…
