Smart Search field - clear or update contents when Advanced Search is used
If the end user performs a Smart Search and selects a building then goes to Advanced Search and performs a different search the Smart Search shows the original search and is not updated with the Advanced Search parameters. This is extremely confusing to the end user especially if they do a building name search in the Smart Search and then go to Advanced Search and do a different building search.
Response from ARCHIBUS Development team:
Development has determined that this behavior is unfortunately a consequence of the product's design. “Smart Search” and “Advanced Search” are two separate functions and they…3 votes -
Smart Search floor list - add scroll bar
V25.2 SmartSearch floor list does not have a scroll bar. It is not obvious to the end user how to find the building and floor they want if they have access to a large number of buildings that meet the search criteria (for example room category). You can hover at the bottom of the list and SOMETIMES this will scroll (not always) but it is not intuitive.

Consistent Email Notification Management
There is a need to review all the various emails that are sent in the Building Operations Module and ensure that they can be managed consistently from one place. Currently some email notifications are hard coded (e.g. Preventative Maintenance SLA Emails, when a WR is forwarded to a workteam/supervisor, etc.), some are managed only from the message table and some are added by the user under "Manage Service Desk Steps".

REVIT and work planed based assets
Upon 2D publishing in REVIT, some assets are not correctly published or better said are not correctly included in the JSON files and from there are not « clickable » ( = selectable) in the SVG drawings, e.g. in the Web Central consoles that use 2D SVG/HTML viewing.
This seems to happen for assets (e.g. equipment) that belong to « work plane based » families, such as solar panels placed on a slanted roof and defined as such in the properties/constraints.
This kind of family needs to be compatible too in order to be used for modern buildings.

Warning when scheduling PM tasks for procedures without steps
When you define a preventive maintenance (PM) procedure, you can add one or more step(s). This is not mandatory but a step will match a work request (WR) when PM work orders (WO) are generated. This means that if you generate PM WO for a procedure without at least one step, no WO will be generated at all!
This should ideally be improved and a sort of check be implemented. For example upon scheduling the PM tasks by warning the user that it is no use scheduling a PM procedure that has no steps.

Auto-minimize of the navigation bar
Some of the users only have a homepage to access ARCHIBUS and thus have no real processes in the navigation (other than home/search/favorites) and no real need for a space-consuming navigation bar on the left side of the screen.
It should therefore be possible to open the Web Central with the navigator bar minimized by default ? Ideally this could be set a application parameter.

Improve the coherence between missed work in PM Planner and overdue work in Maintenance Console
The PM Planner tracks missed work based on the PM schedules, even when WO/WR are generated:
Missed (Work Order Not Generated) -- woid IS NULL and datelatest < today
Missed (Work Order Not Completed) -- woid IS NOT NULL and datecompleted IS NULL and date_latest < todayWhereas the Maintenance Console tracks overdue (and escalated) work based on the escalation date of the WR (wr.dateescalationcompletion).
This means that we have two different views of the work, i.e. one in the PM Planner where the job is overdue and too late and one in the…

Enhanced flexibility for displaying/hiding action buttons in the Maintenance (Building Operations) Console.
It should possible to « manage » the buttons individually. For instance some roles could see and update all requests, just the way supervisors can do, but cannot complete requests. Or it should be possible to allow some specific roles to be supervisor but not use the « complete » button.
In previous versions, this could be done using classic buttons in AXVW files that could be enabled or hidden using security groups or roles.
But in the maintenance console, this seems to be done on a global way, merely depending on few parameters (essentially the craftsperson's attributes, e.g. "is…

Space Console VPA based on Organization
The current Space Console views are limited to using VPA by Location and not by Organization. We have to create custom views to apply access restriction by Business Unit/Division/Department to provide almost all of the Space Management functionalities.
Please enable VPA by Organization for all Space Console views so we can use OOTB views.

Hoteling Module - Workstations should not be defined as "Rooms"
Requires an alternative way to define open office space with workstations that are now used for Hoteling. The current method of polylining the workstations as ROOMS feels like a workaround solution. The end-result comes with flaws:
1) we end up subdividing the floor plan into numerous "rooms" that are in fact workstations. The polylining exercise is super tedious because we need to ensure that they all add to the accurate total floor area as well. Worse when these workstations are set up in irregular shape (honeycomb, circular etc..) Very difficult to represent them in space.
2) we have to create…14 votes -
Pass Custom Sort to Exports from Maintenance Console
Regardless of the sort applied, the maintenance console always pushes out/exports data and displays it sorted descending by WR_ID even if a custom sort has been applied (say Location ascending). Clients want the export to come out as they see it within the application. We are asking to make sure any custom filters and sort column selections that have been applied are passed into the Exported file as well.

Request a Project via the workplace
The workplace has gotten a lot of good attention. Sometimes clients are asking for methods to request a project request over the workplace.
This can be done via the method of the service request where a type of service request is a project. It may not necessarily fill out all the details of a project but this allows people to request for:
-office reconfigurations (construction projects)
-Condition assessments requests
-Hazardous Assessment requests

Too many CANCEL buttons
On the screen where users can see their workplace bookings or their meeting room reservations there are 3 cancel buttons: to cancel an individual booking, to cancel the whole series, and on the top right corner of the screen there is another cancel button to leave the screen. Better rename the latter button to "Home" for example.

Mobile Framework: allow logout when SSO has been enabled
Within Mobile, when SSO has been enabled to ensure the security requirements of an organization are met, it means that there is no Signout Button/capability for mobile users. This means that we can not be cost effective in sharing mobile devices (and software licenses) because there is no Signout button or Automatic Timeout button that releases the users session login
The work effort to work around not having a Signout Button, is to
a) uninstall/reinstall the app every time a device needs to be shared, OR
b) clear data/clear cache.This is time costly and counter productive to trying to…

Link On Demand (Corrective Work) to start Project Management

"Add One" button to book workplaces for a group of employees
Our users have the requirement to easily book workplaces for a group of employees, because a primary goal to go to the office is that you want to connect with other employees. A simple solution would be to put an "Add One" button onto the confirmation screen ("Workplace is successfully booked!") which returns back to the floor plan using the previous search, with updated search results (one seat is now taken). Then they could book the next space for another employee or visitor.

Validations for Craftsperson Dates, Times and Hours Worked
Recommended validations for Craftsperson Dates, Times, and Hours Worked
· Date Started and Date Finished may not be earlier than the Work Request date created (or the date when scheduled)?
· The actual hours cannot be higher than the difference between the actual Time Started and Time Finished. 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM is 1 hour, but you can save 2 Actual hours as an example.
· Cannot add time for a craftsperson if he/she recorded time in the same period on another work request.
· Recommend performing these validations on save (Both WebCentral and Mobile).The benefit of this…

Retain a view as you switch between views so you do not have to reload a previous view.
Let's say during your internet browsing window, you are in the Space console, where you have already opened up a floor plan, and certain highlights and mid way modifying some data when you realize you need to switch to another view. It would be great if the framework doesn't lose that view when switching so if you can go to another area, say the define locations, then switch back to the say the first view without having to reapply all the setting options.
