Hi Mike, Thanks for the feedback on Workforce; your request to map the fields from a popup for an asset layer to the fields in an assignment is something we've heard before.  I'll make sure your information is added to the issue in our repo. Your solution is essentially how to solve this today through the app.  I agree that, with anything done manually there's a greater chance for mistakes vs the information being populated automatically.  This is something we're looking at supporting, but I don't have a time frame or release for it at this time. If I configure the popup to show nothing in the title and I click on the asset the popup shows the address at the top but it does not pass that address into the Location box. However, if I click on a second asset (as if I was creating multiple assignments), it does not show the popup but it passes the address into the Location box. In this case, I'm getting the address but I can't even see the asset id to copy into the ID or Description box. This sounds like a bug that I'll work in trying to reproduce. Feel free to contact us either through Geonet or the Feedback alias within the app. thanks, Craig ... View more

Anthony, Thanks for the additional information, I've made sure to add this to our issue on the backlog. Once we have the initial framework in place to allow Work Order ID and/or Location be passed from Workforce to Collector/Survey123; we'll look at including the ability for other fields; such as the GlobalID field.

Hello Ingrid, We are working on a release of Workforce that will provide the ability to pass information to Survey123 (and Collector). This update is scheduled for mid-late August September. Craig ... View more

Hello Kristina, We have a tentative ETA for this ability which is later this year. However, as I mentioned in my reply to Michael, we'd still only permit 1 worker to be associated with a work assignment. Craig ... View more

Hi Glen, I tried to reproduce this but wasn't able to; are you referring to the Filter text box at the top of the Assignment List?  Or the Search command on the Map? thanks, ... View more

Anthony, We'll be providing the ability to only specify those two fields to pass information from Workforce to Survey123/Collector.  Those are the fields most requested by users.  That doesn't mean we won't consider expanding the list in future releases to allow other fields. If you have use cases / examples where passing the other field information would be useful, please let us know. Craig ... View more

Glen, Ross, This is actually an issue with Workforce; we'll be updating our whitelist for Explorer in the next release of Workforce; late July / early August. Craig ... View more

Hi Colin, Yes, we're working on this now for a late July / early August release. We'll provide the ability to pass the Work Order ID and/or Location text to Survey123 and Collector (when Collector is updated to support it) Craig ... View more

Michael, Thanks for the additional information; this helps, I've added it to our issue. I think the workflow would be satisfied by what we're discussing for a future release; however, we'd still only permit 1 worker to be associated with a work assignment.  Are the workers performing the same type of work?  Are they performing related, but dependent work (i.e., Worker A must complete their work prior to Worker B)?

Hi Phillip, We're currently working on this and are targeting late July / Early August for the release. Craig ... View more

Hi Michael, Thanks for you question on Workforce. You're correct, the typical use case for Workforce involves sending an assignment to a particular worker.  Workforce does not currently support associating assignments with more than 1 worker, but it is something that is in our Backlog, I've added your request to the issue. There are some ways to approach this in Workforce today for certain use cases; they may apply to yours, are you able to go into any more detail on your use case? thanks, Craig ... View more

Hi Charlotte, Yes, you could use Geoforms to populate the assignments in a Workforce Project.  Since the assignments are stored in a feature service, they can be edited and added to from any application that can edit a feature service. If you are going to use Geoforms to populate/add assignments to the feature service, there's a few things to be aware of: - The Workforce Web application ensures that assignments are created with the correct information; i.e. a shape and assignment type and that the other values for an assignment are also correct.  By doing this through Geoforms, you would be taking responsibility for this; take a look at this doc topic for more information: Workforce schema—Workforce for ArcGIS | ArcGIS  - Duplicates and QA of assignments - make sure you have a handle on duplicates that may get created and the QA of assignments; e.g. you may have multiple users reporting the same issue and each of them would create an assignment; which would lead to duplicates.

Glen, I sent an email to you on this.  Can you also get a Support incident created so that they can dig into the issue to try and determine the cause? Can can continue to track the issue here or we can cover it through email. thanks, ... View more

Hi Kevin I assume by your questions that the above needs to be enabled in order to configure the dispatch and mobile workers maps via workforce project? No, it isn't necessary - it looks like something else is going on. Let's take this offline so we can dig into it further; can you DM your email?  April, if you'd also like to investigate this further, please DM me your email. ... View more

Kevin, April, Can you answer a few questions so I can make sure we have the right repro case to look at this issue? Can you confirm if your organization settings have "Allow access to the organization through HTTPS only." enabled? Are you using the http or https protocol when opening Workforce? thanks,  ...
