Mobile field service

Is there anyone using the mobile field service module (Laptop version)???
Does it work ?
If so, what kind of communication do you use ? (gsm-data / gprs / ??)
There is no sign of a single customer that uses it !!???!!

Hi,
i've seen several reactions: at the end it depends if the FSE were using another application previously or not and what was the level of that application.
Usually MFS provides all that is needed for a FSE to look at. Of course that i've seen cases where the pocket pc version was chosen instead of the laptop simply because the FSE didn't want to carry a laptop and it looks quite fancy to use a PDA!
Personally, i think that it depends on the business and on the customer needs in terms of functionality and the amount of engineers that you will deploy to (costs).

  • Error when installing Oracle Lite for Mobile Field Service Laptop

    Hi,
    I am facing a strange problem when installing Mobile Field Service Laptop agent "Oracle Lite" on my laptop.
    When I run the setup, it asks me username and password, after entering the information, when I proceed, I see setup window which displays below messages
    "Authenticating with server... "
    Please wait. This may take several minutes ...
    Then it hangs for several minutes, approx 5 to 10 mins, and then gives message
    "Could not connect to server: HTTP/1.0 502 Bad Gateway"
    I am not able to proceed with setup.
    But none of my other colleagues are facing this issue, even though the network, proxy settings and java version are same.
    Any idea about this error?

  • Is anyone successfully using Mobile Field service - laptop version  in 12.2.X ?

    We need this type of functionality but we  are on 12.0.6.  We are considering upgrading but we were going to upgrade later this year.  However, we need this type of functionality as soon as possible.  Is anyone using Mobile  Field Service in 12.2.X with laptops?

    Hardik,
    I am using an O2 XDA II with Pocket PC 4.2. I am using IAS 9.0.4.0.0.
    I have defined a service in my midtier which outputs XML with a signature box:
    <SimpleFormItem name="p_signature" type="signature"> etc
    My PDA displays the signature box correctly in the web browser.
    When I sign the box and press Submit the following data items are returned to the midtier:
    Query String: "sigSubmit=mySubmit&sig_width=200&sig_height=100&sig=&personName=tim"
    Notice that the sig data is null.
    I know that my IAS version is a little low, but, the problem appears to be that the plug-in in the browser is not returning any sig data.
    Do I have an old version of the plug-in?
    Have you used this plug-in?
    Has it worked for you?
    Do you know where I can get a newer version of this plug-in as it must work with Oracle Apps?
    Regards,
    Tim.

  • Mobile Field Service Laptop - Modify local client pages

    Has anyone successfully modified the pages on the local client for Mobile Field Service / Laptop. We are wanting to hide some functions from the field service rep (I.e. Create SR) and change some default values in drop down lists.
    We can make the changes to the .jsp pretty easily, but are unable to "push" the changes to the client.
    Anyone with ideas / experience?

  • Personalizing/customizing Mobile Field Service in R12

    Hello,
    We are trying to add some fields and also restrict choices in some dropdown lists in MFS.  Right now I am clueless on how to proceed as this is my first time working with MFS.  I have seen the personalization using Mobile Field Service Developer responsibility, but it is not like regular OAF personalization where I could add a field if it is available in the underlying VO.  Has anybody done any personalizations in MFS?  Some examples would really help, even if they may not be related.
    TIA

    and what is the version Olite version i need to download from OTN(http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/database-lite/downloads/10glinuxsoft-093760.html)

    Hi;
    From pdf which you have been shared:
    You must install and configure Oracle10g Lite Release 2 (10.2.0.1) followed by additional patch sets mentioned below before implementing Oracle Mobile Application Foundation. Oracle10g Lite is not included in the R12 Oracle Applications Rapid Install,
    so you must install Oracle10g Lite before proceeding to the Oracle Mobile Application Foundation implementation steps.
    It seems yes you must install. By the way Before start process I suggest first review below notes, coz that pdf seems old.

  • Integration of Oracle field service with GPS

    Hi,
    Is Oracle field service 11.5.9 integrated with GPS (Global Positioning System)?
    If 'No' any work around?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Field Service Dispatch Center has Map feature using which a Dispatcher can get a GIS map display of the assigned work, along with the Plan Board and Gantt chart views.
    Mobile Field Service Wireless for PDAs has the ability to get driving directions (with a map display) between the assigned tasks. Further, a Field Service Technician can receive directions between any two addresses.
