UX improvements | Collapse/expand all company-related notes in the attachment configuration Two buttons added to /PACG/ECM_CUST_ATTA - Inbound/Outbound Attachment Configuration - it is now possible to collapse and expand the entire company configuration tree with a single click. Display all customizing entries in the Customer deactivation configuration It is now possible to display all the existing configuration entries maintained with transaction /PACG/ECM_CDC - Customer's deactivation configuration as ALV Learn more: /PACG/ECM_CDC - Customer's deactivation configuration, button 'Display customizing' FSM menu reorganization Transactions in FSM Cloud Connector folders Administration, Reporting and Send were grouped into meaningful categories, based on their functionality and usage. The new sub-folders can be seen in the tree of the application help page: Application Help. |
Activities | Group Checkout The issues with the group checkout functionality were solved. This solution was also delivered as an SAP note for previous FSM Cloud Connector versions, learn more: https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#/notes/3333690. |

Equipment/Functional location | Measuring points & readings Technicians can use the FSM mobile application to display measuring points and measurement documents originating from SAP ECC/S4, associated with an equipment, as well as record new readings. The readings are communicated to SAP ECC/S4 and stored as measurement documents. Learn more: Measuring points and measurements readings |
FSM Connector (general) | Deletion report for table /PACG/ECM_ALTEW The table /PACG/ECM_ALTEW, together with /PACG/ECM_ALTEWC (CATS receivers), /PACG/ECM_ALTEWS (splits) and /PACG/ECM_ALTEWU (udfs), is used for ‘parking’ time records, as well as to store any inbound time effort (in case they get updated in FSM and the corresponding SAP documents should be adjusted). These tables can rapidly grow and a new deletion report helps users get rid of the unneeded entries. Learn more: /PACG/ECM_DEL_ALTEW - Delete table /PACG/ECM_ALTEW Navigate to sending transactions from the related customizing transactions The button 'Send to FSM', added to several customizing transactions, navigates to the corresponding sending transactions. This helps reduce the effort related to jumping between FSM Cloud Connector folders and transactions. Learn more: Send | Explanation of sending transactions Connector’s number ranges A new view was added to the FSM Cockpit - it shows a list of Connector-related number ranges and their current status System copy guide A new transaction serving as a checklist of steps which must be performed on an SAP system after system copy. Learn more: /PACG/ECM_SYSTEM_CPY - Steps to perform after system copy Send Deletion Requests transaction The validation of entered cloud message type was added to /PACG/ECM_SEND_DELRQ - Send Deletion Request to the Cloud in order to avoid errors. Ping Message Broker The Ping Message Broker tool returns additional information about Message Broker status. Learn more: /PACG/ECM_PING_MB - Ping Message Broker Transporter exception A new tool was added to the Message Broker toolset - it returns information about the latest transporter’s exception Learn more: /PACG/ECM_TR_EXC - Get last transporter exception |
Performance | Events generation - /PACG/ECM_CL_S_EVENT_MDOC While processing /PACG/ECM_CL_S_EVENT_ACTIVITY, raising of /PACG/ECM_CL_S_EVENT_MDOC event got replaced by a direct call of the material document selection class. This reduces the number of unnecessary idoc generation attempts for objects which were already sent. Events generation - /PACG/ECM_CL_S_EVENT_ITEM While saving service order, additional checks of validity were introduced before event /PACG/ECM_CL_S_EVENT_ITEM getting raised for items added to the components table. This reduces the number of unnecessary idoc generation attempts for objects which are not FSM-relevant. Locking of /PACG/ECM_AHASH table Locking and unlocking of /PACG/ECM_AHASH table got changed in order to improve performance in systems with multiple application servers A faster version of FSM Cockpit A new method of collecting data was introduced, significantly speeding up the process of reading IDocs in the FSM Cockpit. The new Cockpit can be accessed using transaction /PACG/ECM_COCKPIT2 - FSM Connector Cockpit (new). Learn more: /PACG/ECM_COCKPIT2 - FSM Connector Cockpit (new) Optimization of attachment sending to FSM Before this change, in order to send an attachment to FSM, it was necessary to send the entire object to which it was added. Now FSM Cloud Connector is capable of sending selected attachments omitting their parent objects. Change background task processing of /PACG/ECM_S_INPUT A new configuration option allows processing of incoming messages in the foreground instead of background. This can improve performance in the systems where background processing is heavily loaded. Additionally, an RFC Connection other than ‘None’ can be selected for inbound idoc processing.

The same event is raised at save of an order, causing the first one to be redundant. With the new release, the related configuration entry will not be added by setup report anymore. |
Personal reservations | Custom address for Personal Reservation Custom address added to personal reservation in FSM is now stored using SAP Business Address services (table ADRC) and added to the person reservation entry in table /PACG/ECM_PRESPR. |
SAP S4/HANA Maintenance Service Order | Attachments' integration As with the CS service orders, it is possible to copy attachments from a the related activity or PM order to the parent MSO, if such the functionality gets is enabled in the dedicated configuration. Learn more: MSO Attachments |

Service Order | Order update from FSM Added handling for unsupported time unit in UPDATE_OPERATION method Service calls configuration redesign
Suppress sending activities with service order FSM activities are no longer sent to FSM unconditionally together with the service orders (of course activities are still sent to FSM on creation or change) however related sending program kept (new checkbox was added) the option of sending them on request. |
Transactions | List of new transactions:
|
Users/Employees | ‘Soft deleted’ flag added to users' maintenance New column/flag was added to Connector’s Users Maintenance - soft deletion of users is now reflected by a corresponding checkbox in the mentioned transactions. New report ‘/PACG/ECM_FSMUSR_CHK’ This is a new report which checks only validity of FSM users in the SAP system ( check validity of SAP users and/or employees which are used with FSM Employee IDocs PA0024 skills are no longer included in employee Idoc |
