Table 24. Resolved Issues

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

DescriptionTracking ID

Previously, when you selected the Open in New Tab button () in a graph widget, the graph opened in the same tab as the dashboard. You could not access the dashboard at the same time. This issue has been resolved. Now, the graph opens in a new view-only tab, based on the selected dashboard filter parameters.

US497986
Previously, when a dashboard used a filter query that contained an asset hierarchy (:ah) filter parameter, and you accessed it using a URL that specified the key of the asset (for example, #dashboard/64252603546?asset=345728389), the dashboard did not display the specified asset unless the parameter ID was entityKey or enty_key. This issue has been resolved. Now, the dashboard displays the specified asset regardless of the parameter ID used in the filter query.US489039
Previously, when the date filter parameter was set, both the date and the default time (00:00:00) were displayed in the dashboard heading. This issue has been resolved. Now, when the date option is selected, only the date is displayed. US483541
Previously, if you accessed a dashboard using a URL that specified filter parameter values, for example, #dashboard/64252603546?asset=345728389&days=90, the specified values may have been overridden by the global asset context or your stored user preferences. If you then attempted to change the values in the Enter Parameter Values window, the parameters values were reverted to the values specified in the URL. These issues have been resolved.

Now, if you access the dashboard using a URL that specifies filter parameter values, these values take precedence over any stored preferences, default parameter values, and the global asset context. You can then change the filter parameter values in the Enter Parameter Values window and select Done to update the data displayed in the dashboard.

Note: The filter parameters are also applied when you use a URL that specifies parameter values to access a graph, for example #graph-preview/64252603546?asset=345728389&days=90, a query, for example #qdetail/64252603546?asset=345728389&days=90), or, when you open a graph or query in a new tab from the dashboard widget.
US433974
Previously, when you configured a Graph widget on a dashboard to use a multi-value filter parameter, and then opened the graph in a new tab, an error occurred. The selected parameter values were not applied to the graph. This issue has been resolved.DE158984

This topic provides a list of product changes released for this module on this date.

Table 32. Enhancements and New FeaturesThe following enhancements and new features have been added.
DescriptionTracking ID
The following enhancements have been added to capture the asset health information in the Inspection Management module:
  • Health Evaluation option has been added to the Event Configuration section of the Inspection Admin Preferences page. If you select this option when creating the main event, you can create Inspection Health Evaluation records and link them to the asset.
  • Enable Asset Mapping option has been added to the Template Name window of the Checklist Configuration page. If you select this option, the Asset Mapping section appears in the Create Inspection window.
  • When you create a new inspection event, you can now see a new section Asset Mapping added to the Create Inspection window. You can now select the sub-assets and map them to the corresponding checklist categories. The Inspection Health Evaluations generated for these checklist categories are then linked to their corresponding asset.
    Note: The Asset Mapping section appears only when you select to create an inspection checklist template from the Inspection Event list, and that template has the Enabled Asset Mapping option selected.
  • To facilitate selection of asset health, new icons have been added to the Inspection Data page. Icons are also available for each category header in a checklist inspection.
  • The Inspection Field Data Collection feature has been modified to support the ability to capture health evaluation information when performing mobile checklist inspections.
  • When collecting inspection data for an event record that has Inspection Health Evaluation data, an icon indicating the health of the overall asset is available on the header of the mobile inspection. This icon shows the worst-case indicator level of the health assessments against the checklist findings. A card is available on each checklist category for defining the health assessment value and comments.
F61227
To enhance the usability, Inspection ID has been added to the following reports:
  • Public\Meridium\Modules\Inspection\Reports\Checklist Inspection Report
  • Public\Meridium\Modules\Inspection\Reports\Blank Checklist Inspection Report
If the report is for a Checklist Inspection Template record, the Inspection ID also contains the name of the template associated with the event.
US491005
The following enhancements have been added to European Inspection Management:
  • New fields are added in the Inspection Task Family, to calculate the grace period. The new fields are included in European Inspection Task Datasheet.
  • You can now define Grace Period. This grace period helps in determining whether an inspection task is overdue or not.
  • Inspection Documentation Completion Date is now populated based on adding the Next Date, Inspection Documentation Window, and Grace period (defined by you).
US488180
The following enhancements have been added to Work Packs:
  • You can now link multiple Inspection tasks to Work Packs.
  • Search for Inspection Tasks can now be performed through a configurable query. You can add search criteria while searching for Inspection Tasks.

    The query is located at: Public\Meridium\Modules\Inspection\Work Pack Queries\Available Tasks for Work Pack

  • Work Pack Linked Inspection Tasks is now a configurable query.

    The query is located at: Public\Meridium\Modules\Inspection\Work Pack Queries\All Tasks in a Work Pack

  • Work Pack Linked Inspections is now a configurable query.

    The query is located at: Public\Meridium\Modules\Inspection\Work Pack Queries\All Inspections in a Work Pack

  • You can relocate the existing Inspection Tasks between the Sub Work Packs.
  • US483140
  • US483137
  • US483125
To enhance the usability of viewing images created using the mobile Field Data Collection feature, or created manually as reference documents, the following enhancements have been made:
  • An image gallery button has been added for the inspection and any related record of the inspection that supports reference documents (i.e., General Findings or sub-inspections). The image gallery displays reference documents containing images that are either directly stored in the GE Digital APM or as external network paths such as UNC or URL paths.
  • All images created or linked to a related record of an inspection, are now also linked to the root inspection event record. This allows you to view all the images across the inspection in one location. This is also true for images synced from the Inspection Field Data Collection feature.
    Note: When you manually unlink a reference document containing an image from a related record, the link between the reference document and the root inspection event will remain. You can unlink the reference document from the inspection event record as well.
  • For images against either General Findings or Checklist Findings, the image gallery dialog now displays the description of the Reference Document and the Finding Summary value from the finding record.
  • For Checklist Inspections, a similar functionality has been added for each checklist category and an image button has been added with each category header. All images collected against finding items within that category are displayed in the image gallery.
    Note: The height of individual Checklist Finding rows has been increased for more visibility of the summary text.
US481174
You can now generate and download multiple Inspection Reports at a time. To facilitate this enhancement:
  • A new option, Download Report () is added in the Inspection Management Overview page.
  • A new option, View log is added in the Inspection Management Overview page to view the status of the Download Report job.
    Note: If you have a pop-up blocker enabled in your browser, you need to disable it to download the report.
