Self-Managed Work Order Creation with CSV Import

Field workers can now independently manage the creation of Ad Hoc work orders on the mobile app by loading records via CSV files to generate Work Features. There are two ways to generate work features:

  • using IDs of asset data

  • using coordinates.

The CSV file format includes fields such as ID, Latitude, Longitude, and Symbol. Additionally, field workers can select from a list of Ad Hoc Work Types to categorize and define their imports, with user-friendly asset category mapping for efficient management.

Configuration Instructions:

As mentioned, there are two methods of generating work features via CSV file. The configuration instructions for both scenarios (using IDs or using coordinates) are detailed in the following sub sections.

Generate Work Features using IDs

Todo

  • specify IDs of asset data

  • lat/long columns must be blank

  • Only valid for work order types that are “create by id”

  • symbol string is optional (symbol strings are configured in back end work management map service via ArcGIS Pro i.e. the APRX file)

 

Generate Work Features using Coordinates

To configure this tool, you need to set up the Spatial Reference ID, commonly known as the "well-known ID (WKID)" designation.

Todo:

  • ID column must be blank

  • Only valid for work order types that are “create by lat/long”

  • specifying the spatial reference of the coordinates is optional. If not specified 4326 (WGS84) is used by default.

This integer SRID is used in the Mobile XML configuration file and should be entered in the <SelfManagedWorkLatLongSpatialReferenceId> XML element, which is a child of the <WorkManagementToolSettings> element. The most commonly used IDs are 4326 (WGS84) and 3857 (Web Mercator). If the XML element is not set up or no value is entered, the system defaults to using 4326.

Steps for Configuration:

  1. Open your Mobile XML configuration file.

  2. Locate the <WorkManagementToolSettings> element.

  3. Within this element, add or update the <SelfManagedWorkLatLongSpatialReferenceId> element.

  4. Enter the appropriate WKID value. For instance, use 4326 for WGS84 or 3857 for Web Mercator.

  5. Save the configuration file.

Sample XML Configuration:

<WorkManagementToolSettings> ... <SelfManagedWorkLatLongSpatialReferenceId>4326</SelfManagedWorkLatLongSpatialReferenceId> ... </WorkManagementToolSettings>

By following these steps and configuring the XML file as shown, field workers will be able to utilize the CSV import feature effectively, ensuring that work orders are created with the correct spatial reference system.
