Nice set of functionality. Very useful for our (maintenance) purposes. Off course it triggers some questions 🙂
Is there also any analytical capability available for analyzing the content of the forms that are filled in by the users?
Is this part of the Asset Manager setup or is is possible to use it separate? For instance, is ECC, BRF+, BTP and an own Fiori application (for workorder management) also possible?
Could you provide the prerequisites that are required for using this?
Form Runner provides you the capability to track the Forms filled by users. For advanced analytics, the solution has interfaces to expose Forms data that can be plugged into reporting solutions for analysis.
Yes, one part of the solution is online capability, can be driven by ECC or S/4HANA, BRF+ and BTP applications. In order to support offline capability (a typical end-end use case), SAP Asset Manager comes into picture.
Pre-requisite as mentioned in the document are 3 main building blocks. SAP EAM(S/4 HANA or ECC), BTP with backing services and SAP Asset Manager.
How do you link a meas. point to a Dynamic Forms question and how get a meas. document created after inspection result recording in a form?
Do you link a Dynamic Forms question to a specific meas. point of an equipment or to a classif. characteristic of meas. point? The latter would allow to have one form for same kind of equipments/meas. points. Otherwise, you have to create a form for each single equipment.
We pre-map the relevant Form fields with measurement point in S4. Measurement documents are created by post processing the Form using SAP Cloud Integration.
Form fields are mapped to the characteristic and measurement position, so optimises Form usage.
Could you share any insights on how to get started with the Dynamic Forms? I expect some installation is required, how do we enable the dynamic forms functionality on BTP and some installation and configuration of the BRF+ rules is required.
Is this like a preconfigured form available when we install asset manager or do we need to have some additional license or scope item for this to be activated?
The solution has multiple components. On BTP as well as extension to SAP Asset Manager. For details on how to get the solution, please reach out to ramneek.sharma@sap.com
Since this is a custom built solution, it requires deploying the components on the target landscape to get started. Yes, you are right, requires installation, config of BRF+ etc. For details on how to get access to the solution please reach out to ramneek.sharma@sap.com
Appreciate your feedback and great to hear that this is an area of focus for your organisation.
The solution can be made available on BTP. Feel free to reach out to us(ramneek.sharma@sap.com, mohammed.saifulla.shafiulla@sap.com) and we can discuss the possibilities.
