View Related Assets and Create a Work Order

Related assets can be viewed from a selection. Additionally, a work order can be created for the selected related assets.

PREREQUISITES:

  • The mobile apps use feature services to traverse the relationship between parent and child assets; therefore, the feature service needs to include the relationships to return related assets in a search.
  • For related assets to be viewable in the mobile apps, all features and tables participating in the relationship must be included in the web map used by the mobile app. If a relationship is attributed, the intermediate table must also be included in the web map.
  • The feature service must be added as a Service Resource in Designer. See Add or Edit GIS Service Resources in the Designer for 15.7 Guide for more information.
  • The GIS Service Layers must be configured to use the feature service rather than the SOE service. For each asset, the Service Resource must be selected for the Service, and the related asset must be selected for the Layer. See Configure Service Layers in the Designer for 15.7 Guide for more information.
  1. From the map, make sure the desired layer is set as selectable.
  2. Tap the selection icon, then tap and drag to make a selection on the map.
  3. Tap the blue box to view the selected assets.

  1. From the Selected Assets page, tap View Related Assets to see a list of related assets associated to the asset.

The Related Assets page shows the possible asset types that can be related to the one selected on the map.

  1. From the Related Assets page, tap a related asset type to see the list of related assets attached to the asset.

If the page is blank, that means there are no assets of this type related to the one selected on the map.

  1. Tap Add Asset to add the related asset to your current selection. You can add multiple related assets to the selection.

  1. Tap Remove Asset to remove a related asset from the current selection.

  1. Navigate back to the map. With the assets still selected, tap the plus icon.
  2. Tap Work Order from the Select work activity panel.

  1. Select the Asset Group, Asset Type, and Template for the work order(s). You can choose to create one work order with all the assets or one work order for each asset.

NOTE: Whether you create one work order for all assets or one work order for each asset, the feature is attached. However, if you create one work order for each asset, you will have individual work orders for each selected feature and each related object.

  1. Tap Create.

  1. The feature asset(s) and the related asset(s) show under Assets.

  1. Tap to open the Assets panel.

The new work order icon is now visible on the map.
