Table 1. Enhancements and New Features

The following enhancements and new features have been added.

DescriptionTracking ID
You can now define and associate secondary actions with primary actions. Secondary actions are created to prescribe the corrective actions to mitigate an undesirable condition that is found while performing primary maintenance, monitoring, or data collection.F54326
To improve the performance while approving asset strategies, you can now hide the Cancel operation. To facilitate this enhancement, the Suppress Cancel Operation check box has been added to the ASM Preferences workspace. US420974
The ability to implement actions at the System Strategy level has been added.US419950
System Strategies have been redesigned to improve usability and performance.
  • US419866
  • US419846
  • US419845
  • US419509
  • US419489
To enhance usability, the count of controlled strategies for each template now appears in the Templates section of the Asset Strategy Management page. To facilitate this enhancement, a column, CONTROLLED STRATEGIES has been added to the Templates section.US418893
The following enhancements have been done to the Controlled Strategies section:
  • The performance when activating Controlled Strategies with master template has been improved.
  • The performance of adding new Controlled strategies for a template have been improved. The maximum number of controlled strategies is 5000.
US417114
The maximum number of allowed Asset Strategies in a System Strategy has been set to 500.US395198
To enhance usability when linking a health indicator to an action, the Link To Existing Health Indicator window now displays only the Health Indicator records that are related to the asset associated with the strategy.US388694
The performance of the ASM Overview page when loading the counts on the tabs with large number of records has been improved.US379746
Table 2. Resolved Issues

The following issues, which existed in one or more previous versions, have been resolved.

DescriptionTracking ID
Previously, after deleting multiple actions, there was a performance issue while activating an ASM template. This issue has been resolved.DE141603
Previously, if an asset strategy template controlled the strategies associated with a system strategy, when you accessed the Risk Analysis workspace for the system strategy, the number of actions that appeared was incorrect. This issue has been resolved.DE140703
Previously, when you imported assets from the EAM system, the EAM Plan or EAM Plan Details records with Action IDs were not linked to the respective action in Asset Strategy Management. This issue has been resolved.DE138169
Previously, in the Action datasheet, if you selected a value in a drop-down list box, the selected value was retained even if you closed the datasheet without saving the changes. This issue has been resolved. Now, the value is retained only if you save the datasheet.DE137831
Previously, when you imported data for an analysis using the Asset Strategy Management (ASM) data loader, the risk values of the associated Asset Criticality Analysis were not populated in the associated Failure Risk records. This issue has been resolved.DE135554
Previously, when you ran an ASO simulation for an asset, the Mitigated Risk Rank for the asset was calculated incorrectly. This issue has been resolved.DE133350
Previously, in the Recommendation pane, the target completion date did not appear in the format based on your culture settings. This issue has been resolved.DE132189
Previously, when you selected a Site, assets specific to the site did not appear. This issue has been resolved. Now, in this scenario, only the assets specific to the site appear.DE129677
Previously, if an asset strategy template controlled strategies associated with multiple sites, you could approve the template even if you did not have privileges to access all the sites. This issue has been resolved. Now, you can approve the template only if you have privileges to access all the associated sites.DE126385
Previously, in the Asset Strategy Approval report, the interval units were not displayed in the language based on your culture settings. This issue has been resolved. Now, the interval units are displayed in the language based on your culture settings.DE105467
Previously, while creating General Recommendations, the Recommendation IDs were not generated in correct sequence. This issue has been resolved.DE96536
Table 3. Obsolete Features

The following features are no longer available.

DescriptionTracking ID
To improve performance, the Risks and Actions tabs have been removed from the Asset Strategy Management Overview page.US429571
To improve user experience, Unit Strategies no longer appear in the System Strategies section of the ASM Overview page.
Note: The existing Unit Strategies are retained in the APM database, however, you can no longer create Unit Strategies. To make the existing Unit Strategies available in the System Strategies section of the ASM Overview page, modify the query that is used by the System Strategies section.
US389366
The deprecated fields, Asset Name and Asset Type, have been removed from the Controlled Strategies workspace in the ASM templates. Now, Record ID of the Asset is displayed instead of Asset Name and Asset family is displayed instead of Asset Type.US360076
