View Scheduled Plan
Explanation
This activity is used to view the scheduled plan for a Work Task. Once the Work Task Activities which are
transferred to automatic scheduling are scheduled, an Allocation Plan is returned to IFS Cloud. It is possible to
assign the Work Task Activity to the suggested resource. Note: If scheduling is done using the Schedule
Dispatch Service (DSP), the allocated Work Task Activities will be assigned (or unassigned) automatically, based on
the rules defined for the dispatch service. Work Tasks that are committed (assigned) by the DSP will be returned in
status Assigned and a Work Assignment will be created for the suggested resource.
The scheduled plan will include the following data as received from the Scheduling Engine:
- The Activity Identification from Scheduling.
- The identification of the Dataset and the Dataset Description.
- Plan ID describing which broadcast updated the record last.
- The date for when the scheduled plan was sent from scheduling.
- The suggested start and end dates for the work task activities (referred to as activity in the automatic
scheduling workbench).
- Whether the Work Task Activity is fixed to the given start date and time.
- The Duration (in hours) of the Work Task Activity.
- The identity of the resource who is to execute the work, if this resource is set as a fixed resource for the
work task resource demand. When a Work Task Activity is transferred with a Work Assignment already created, this
resource is transferred as committed to the Scheduling Engine.
- The identity of the resource who is suggested to be allocated to the Work Task.
- The status of the scheduled Work Task Activity.
- The Scheduling Base Value.
- The Primary Scheduling SLA Type that is assigned to the Work Task.
- The earliest time and/or the latest time the work task can be scheduled to start in order to meet the
requirements of the Primary Scheduling SLA Type.
- The Secondary Scheduling SLA Type that is assigned to the Work Task.
- The earliest time and/or the latest time the work task can be scheduled to start in order to meet the
requirements of the Secondary Scheduling SLA Type.
- If an allocation record in a broadcast fails, the Output Status on the related scheduled
work task record will be set to Failed and the reason for the failure will be displayed in the Error
Text field.
Prerequisites
To perform this activity, the work task must have been scheduled in the Scheduling Engine and an allocation plan
must have been returned for it. If the work task could not be scheduled, an allocation will not be returned and the
scheduling status will be set to Unallocated.
The Output Status and Error Text will only be set if the Scheduling Configuration Parameter Enable
Broadcast Error Handling is set to Yes.
System Effects
As a result of this activity, it is possible to review the scheduled activities from IFS Cloud.
