Product Updates

​Hello from the Maintain team!We’ve been focusing heavily on the future of scheduling. We’re happy to release significant changes to this feature as well as updates to the workspaces functionality and a standard slew of bug fixes.Scheduling upgradesWe’re introducing several new upgrades to our scheduling component, and laying the foundation for upgrades to come!You can now create operations. These operations are tied to Maintain and are used for ‘noting down’ new operations that are required. Once you have finalized your changes, you can export these and add them to your source system (e.g., SAP). You can adjust the granularity to see your schedule in a day, week, month, or year view - making it easier to view longer-lasting plans. You can drag and drop operations to reorder them to make the most sense to your plan. Drag and drop bars are now more user friendly and easier to do. The trade matrix will now use the number of workers as a baseline instead of the number of work hours each day. This will be the foundation for the teams concept coming up the next half year. We’ve given the page a new design refresh to make the experience cleaner and easier to use. Finally, we have added a selection of filters for you to use specific to the scheduling page. For example, filtering by the type of operation phase (Pre, Post or Exec).Workspace upgradesWe’ve given the stamp tool a redesign. We also have added a base set of P&ID symbols that you can use as stamps. You can upload images to CDF and use as stamps. If a document physically covers another document on the page, you can now move it between layers. You can now swap between pages of a PDF.Integrity and Major Risks DashboardWe have made multiple changes to improve the performance of the IMR-dashboard.Other updatesWe have improved the filtering options selection to be more performant and included the number of options this filter has.Bug fixesFixed issue with rendering suggestions. Comments tool in workspaces now works again. Fixed issue where the material status did not show on work orders. This release also contains bug fixes to improve performance and user experience.Behind the scenesWe’re looking forward to booking meetings with super users from our customers to start validating our roadmap plans for the upcoming months! Several users have raised some exciting ideas that we are developing a concept around. We hope that these will further increase the value of Maintain going forward. Head on over to the Maintain Group on Cognite Hub to learn more about specific features, what’s to come, and post a question if you have one!

We are excited to share what’s new in version 1.20 of Cognite Maintain!We have improved the workspace and added new features. Now, you can share a workspace with colleagues. When you have a list, you can load the documents related to the work orders in the list to the workspace. If a work order is unmapped, you can now map it to an asset in one of the documents in the workspace. You can collapse the list panel to the right to get more room to work with workspaces. We have added a shortcut to return to the select tool, press s, or the escape key. You can also delete stamps.When you move an operation on the scheduler page, the trade matrix (showing the number of workers and planned hours for each day for each trade) will be updated accordingly.We have also brought back the Help center.

The Product Release Spotlight Webinar recording for December can be found here.  ​Trusting the data in Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) is the core of managing, building, and using the Cognite product suite. Data engineers need sufficient insight into the staged data to take the next step on the ingestion journey and the new data profiling report on staged data in Cognite RAW caters for this. This CDF release also introduces the new Cognite Solutions Portal. The Cognite Solutions Portal collects applications, use cases, and other helpful links to solutions your organization has built on top of CDF. Users no longer have to keep track of many different URLs to access the information they need in their daily work.Read more on this and all the other improvements for the CDF December release below: Data profiling on staged dataTo get in-depth knowledge about the data quality, discover patterns, outliers, and see other statistics in the new standard profiling report available on the Profile tab in Cognite RAW. Report your findings to the data owners and use this as a trigger to discuss topics such as the best fit for the primary key column and contextualization and to provide the best support for the end-users of the data. Keep iterating on the data integrations to improve the data quality and prepare the data transformation into the CDF data model. Read more here. ​Get notified about interrupted data flow into CDFCatch any issues that interrupt the data flow into CDF by setting up email notifications on the Extraction pipeline page. You can define the time condition for triggering the email. Learn how to set it up in this article.  New tools for running SQL TransformationsNew Transformations CLIThe new Transformations CLI replaces the old Jetfire CLI offering a better developer experience. Now, you can easily declare and manage variables in the configuration file without any hard-code. You install the CLI using the Python pip package manager. Read more here. APIs and Python SDK for TransformationsThe Transformations APIs and Python SDK are promoted to Version 1. Using the APIs/SDK, data engineers can orchestrate transformations sequentially, making it more reliable and quick. Check out the  API docs and SDK docs for more information.  Access management for SQL TransformationsYou can now manage access to SQL Transformations using the new transformations:read and transformations:write capabilities in your CDF group. We still support transformation access using the transformationsor jetfire groups for existing users to ensure backward compatibility. However, we recommend that you switch to managing access to Transformations using the new capabilities. Introducing the Cognite Solutions PortalAs companies ramp up their digitalization and transformation efforts, the number of applications, dashboards, and use cases increases rapidly. As a result, end-users have to keep track of many different URLs to access the information they need. This is the problem Cognite Solutions Portal sets out to solve. It gathers all your CDF-enabled solutions in one place. Use the Cognite Solutions Portal to add applications, dashboards from analytics and visualization tools, and helpful links into shared spaces.  Explore data in 3DThe CDF Data explorer already helps solution builders and data scientists find, validate, and learn about the data in CDF. Get the full experience by navigating and searching for assets and viewing the details in 3D models on the new 3D tab in the CDF Data explorer.    ChartsCognite Charts runs on top of  CDF and is a powerful tool for engineers and domain experts to explore, trend, and analyze industrial data. For more information, visit the Charts [Early Adopter] Group. This release has the following improvements: Automatic data alignmentCharts now automatically handle data alignment in your calculations. Time series data often have different sampling frequencies and time stamps, and it can be hard to do even the simplest calculations (e.g. timeseries_1 + timeseries_2), especially if you’re not proficient in Python.  Calculation results will be inaccurate and untrustworthy without properly accounting for data alignment.    A new and improved no-code calculation builder experienceThe no-code calculation builder has been redesigned and rebuilt on a new, powerful library.   

The Site view has been enabled for specific customers. This feature allows users to see a group of assets in one view, supporting the task of for example, coordinating campaigns that span across many assets. In addition to clicking individual assets as before, the user can now also click a group of assets.The improvements and bug fixes below are also included:The loading time of superimposition suggestions have been improved Trades are now displayed in the resource optimization drop-down suggestions If a user has selected the Suggestions tab for work orders, we default change to the Work orders tab when switching between platforms

The new feature in this release is Workspaces. Workspaces allows you to create and view your markups on selected P&IDs. You can create a new workspace or modify an existing one.

A spinner is now displayed when waiting for data to load in predefined work order lists. We have also made adjustments to make Maintain work on Azure.

We are eager to show you the new functionality for archiving checklist templates! If you are granted extended rights and run InField from a desktop, you can use the menu option Archive templates on the Templates page to move templates into the new Archived templates section.  In this section, you'll see all archived templates sorted according to the area of expertise. Here, you can open, restore or delete a template, and view any reports based on checklists from the template. Note that if you delete the template, the checklists reports will no longer be available. Make sure to download the reports you want to keep.

You can now sign in to InField using single sign-on with Microsoft Azure To use this option, your organization needs to configure new InField projects using OpenID Connect and Azure AD, Microsoft's cloud-based identity and access management service.When you sign in to InField, you'll notice the new Login with Microsoft Azure option:Only select this option if your organization started using InField after this release and configured InField for this option. If you're already using InField, you sign in as you always have done using your company ID and credentials.

We are excited to share what’s new in version 1.16 of Cognite Maintain.The work order cards are now customizable! Select the metadata most important to you and pin these to the top of the work order card for a better overview.The navigation help now includes a guide on how to navigate by using keyboard shortcuts. The help modal has also been adjusted to fit smaller screens better.We have made it easier to change your list filters by enabling toggling of list filters in work order cards. Simply click the item you want to remove as a filter.When hovering over the asset tag, we now display the asset description for easy overview. Under suggestions, we have improved the algorithm for superimposition to provide you with more accurate suggestions.Give it a try and see what you think!

Hello! We are excited to release Cognite Maintain 1.15.We are enabling an isolated view of the 3D model. Now the user can choose which parts of the 3D model to see, instead of loading the entire model. A 3D navigation cube is now visible in the top right corner of the 3D view, making it even easier to navigate. Another improvement is that we added a 3D model color explanation to the legend, which explains what the grey, blue, yellow, and red colored assets mean. We have also changed the color on superimposed models, which are now purple, to make it more visible on the model.

We are happy to share release 1.14 with you.A big chunk of the work in this release is not visible features but background changes. We have been working towards a goal to remove a big and time-consuming request. Instead of one request, we get the parts of the data we need only when and where we need it to enhance the performance of the initial load.We have also fixed bugs and implemented several improvements:Using the Segmented Control component to switch between 3D/2D view Several typo fixes Black border on 3D view on big screens is now removed Toggling risks on/off on 3D view works againWe hope the improved loading time of the application is experienced as significant and that it will contribute to easier use of Cognite Maintain!

Today, we are happy to announce the release of the following improvements to Cognite Data Fusion (CDF). Manage RAW foreign table in the Postgres GatewayYou can now manage the RAW foreign table in the Postgres Gateway using APIs and don’t have to rely on external tools such as pgAdmin or psql CLI to create, list, update or delete the RAW foreign tables.Update labels on assetsTo make it easier to update labels on assets, we have added a set method in the updateAssets operation. The operation accepts a list of labels to set or replace for the resource.Update sequence configurationWith the availability of mutable sequences, you can now update an existing sequence configuration. In addition to adding, removing and updating columns in your sequence, you can also update or clear the assetId, externalId, metadata, and the dataSetId for a sequence. To update a sequence, you need sequencesAcl:WRITE capabilities.Group limitsTo support authentication for users who are members of a large number of Azure AD groups we have increased the default group limit token configuration to 1.000 for new CDF projects with AAD as the IdP from now on.Interactive engineering diagramsWe’re hard at work putting the final touches on our new user experience for working with interactive engineering diagrams. Stay tuned for the upcoming release. Cognite ChartsRelease HighlightsThe main new features in this Cognite Charts release are: Search for time series data by time series ID Highlights matches in search results Recently viewed tags and time series are displayed in the search panel Merge y-axes with the same units Show/hide min/max bands Show/hide gridlines Backend performance improvements Bug fixes & UI/UX improvements Search for time series data by time series IDWe have added a tab in the search panel to search for “Time series ID,” specifically. This tab should be used when you know the name of the time series you are searching for (e.g. VAL_21_PT_1019_04:Z.X.Value), while the “Tag number” tab should be used to search for the asset tag to which the time series of interest is related (e.g. 21PT1019). You will also notice that search results that match your query are now highlighted to make direct matches easy to seeSearch by Time series ID You’ll also see the tags (assets) and time series you have recently viewed (added and/or removed from your chart) in the search panel, if you have not begun to type a search query.Basic Statistics & Tag MetadataUsers can view additional basic statistics (mean, std. dev., etc.) for the a given time series for the time range they’re currently viewing in the chart by clicking on the corresponding information icon. By clicking on the “Metadata” tab in this panel on the right-hand side of the screen, can view the metadata information for that Basic statistics Metadata Merge y-axes with same unitsIt’s now possible to easily compare the values of two or more time series or calculations that have the same unit, without needing to manually match and align the axes individually. Simply click the y-axis button found just above your chart and select the “Merge units” toggle. In order for this feature to work, you must have already assigned the input and output units on the time series or calculation(s) of interest.Show/hide min/max bandsWhile looking at a wider range of time, Charts will show the aggregated values for a given time series. With the min/max bands, it’s possible to visually display the min and max range for a time series.Show/hide gridlinesGridlines can be a valuable way to visually identify time series values, but they could also get in the way and be confusing when you have a lot of time series data on your Chart. Use the show/hide gridlines toggle to decide for yourself whether or not you want them displayed on your chart.

We are happy to share release 1.13 with you all! A big chunk of the work in this release is not visible features, but background changes. We have been working towards a goal to remove a big and time consuming request. Instead of one request, we are getting the parts of the data we need, only when and where we need it in order to enhance the performance of the initial load.We have also fixed bugs and implemented several improvements:Using the Segmented Control component to switch between 3D/2D view Several typo fixes Black border on 3D view on big screens is now removed Toggling risks on/off on 3D view works againWe hope the improved loading time of the application is experienced as significant, and that it will contribute to easier use of  Cognite Maintain! Any feedback or comments are as always most welcome! Just send them to me at mari.sofie.korslund@cognite.com :) 

It’s time for a new release of Cognite Maintain!Based on the feedback from several of you we have improved the visualization of work orders and other events in 3D. These are now visualized in a honeycomb structure, which will expand as you create scopes. We hope this improvement will significantly ease the visualization in 3D. Give it a try and let us know what you think!We have also improved the performance by reducing the amount of api calls. As always, please give your feedback here or send it to me directly at mari.sofie.korslund@cognite.com  

We’re excited to release version 1.11 of Cognite Maintain!We have enabled a help center in the application to provide you with useful tips on how to use the application.To access the help center, click ? in the right top corner of the application. A side panel will open containing useful links to the documentation, as well as walkthrough cards that cover central features of Cognite Maintain. Currently, there are two guides on how to create and optimize a Scope. Guides for Schedule and Report will be added in the near future.The 3D viewer now uses Reveal version 1.5, which enhances the 3D model performance. We have added tips on how to navigate in the 3D viewer, and how to slice the 3D model using the new slicer in the toolbox in the bottom left corner of the 3D view.To increase the speed of Cognite Maintain, substantial work has been done to enhance the performance. We have developed enrichment services to consolidate the api calls to prevent hitting the api call limit on browsers.We have also improved the filter functionality. The string search handles multiple values and makes it easier to create a scope based on multiple IDs. These are separated by line change.As always we welcome all feedback and ideas for improvement!Reach out in the forum or to me directly at mari.sofie.korslund@cognite.com  Sincerely, Mari SofieProduct Manager

Click on the grey cog in the bottom right corner (Configuration) and update the workday hours and capacity for the different trades all at once              P&ID improvements P&ID added as new setting for suggestions: we can now offer suggestions based on P&IDs relevant to the chosen scope Ability to download P&IDs both with and without work orders and risks highlighted on them  

Welcome to the Cognite Maintain product updates! Cognite Maintain lets you construct, optimize, and analyze maintenance plans flexibly, intuitively, and automatically. It contextualizes open work orders, ongoing barrier risks, HSE risks, discipline availability, and more to visualize the data needed to optimize the maintenance schedule. It breaks the silos between planning teams by providing visibility into other scopes and invites intra-team collaboration. Cognite Maintain detects opportunities and clashes, exports all your pre-processed documentation for the execution phase, and lets you save time during the process. 

We are very proud to present this major release of InField that offers you the option to add measurement readings to checklists based on templates. To include measurement readings in a checklist, you must first allow for this in the checklist template. You'll notice a new checkbox in the Create new template window.As you fill in the template items, you get the option to add fields for measurement readings. These fields are Name (required), Unit (required), and Min. and Max. values (optional). For checklists based on this template, the measurement reading fields are available on each checklist item. You can add and edit integers and decimal numbers, and if min/max values were added in the template, any deviations are marked with a red line.The PDF report you can create from either the checklist or the template also shows the measurement readings in a separate section.And there's more! Find operation IDs (if you're using SAP) or activity IDs (if you're using WorkMate) with the new filter field you'll see on the Checklist page when a work order has operations/activities attached. Note that on a mobile device, you'll find this menu option under the More options (...) icon. Vi har store nyheter i denne versjonen av InField! Nå kan du legge til måleravlesinger i sjekklister som er basert på maler. Først må feltene som skal brukes til måleravlesningen legges til i malen. Dette gjør du ved å merke avkrysningsfeltet Inkluder måleravlesninger i malen som du finner i vinduet Opprett ny mal.Når du deretter oppretter oppgaver i malen, kan du legge til felt for måleravlesninger. Disse feltene er Navn (påkrevd), Enhet (påkrevd) og Min. og Maks. verdi (valgfritt).For sjekklister som er basert på slik maler, er feltene for måleravlesning tilgjengelig for hver oppgave i sjekklisten. Du kan legge til og redigere heltall og desimaler, og avvik fra min. og maks.verdier vises med en rød strek.PDF-rapporten du kan opprette fra sjekklister og maler viser måleravlesningene i en egen seksjon.Filtrer på aktvititeter I denne versjonen kan du også enkelt finne frem til en aktivitet på en arbeidsordre med et nytt filtreringsfelt. Feltet vises på Sjekkliste-siden når en sjekkliste inneholder aktiviteter for arbeidsorder. På mobile enheter finner du dette menyvalget under ikonet Flere valg (...).#

You'll find some adjustments to the user experience in this minor release of InField. Storing of archived checklists is now better adjusted to shift work and are only kept for 4 weeks (previously 12 weeks). This is to give a clearer view of the checklists you are currently working with.You'll also notice that the Trend card on the Overview page no longer displays the time series value when several time series is connected to a tagDenne versjonen av InField innholder to mindre endringer av brukeropplevelsen. Arkiverte sjekklister er nå bedre tilpasset skift-arbeid, og lagres nå i 4 uker (tidligere 12 uker). Slik blir det enklere å se sjekklistene som er aktuelle for det skiftet du jobber i.I tillegg vil du ikke lenger se tidsserie-verdien på Trend-kortet på Oversikt-siden når flere tidsserier er koblet til en tagg.

This version of InField lets you create templates without intervals with a new check box in the Create new template window. You'll notice that the field for interval selection is hidden when you add items to the template. Checklists based on this template consist of the template name and the current date. These checklists are unique to the user, so to share with co-workers, you must click Share checklist, which you find under the More options (...) icon. Be aware that you cannot change this check box once the template is created. Nå kan du opprette maler uten intervall med det nye avkrysningsfeltet i Opprett ny mal. Du vil se at feltet for å velge intervall skjules når du legger til oppgaver i malen. Sjekkklister som er basert på denne malen består av mal-navnet og dagens dato. Disse sjekklistene er unike per bruker, så for å dele listene med kollegaer, bruk Del sjekkliste, som du finner under Flere valg (...). Merk at du kan ikke endre denne avkrysningen når malen er opprettet.  

Easily add or remove multiple areas of expertise when creating or editing a template for routine round checklists. All you need to do in the Create new template window is to click several areas in the list to add and click cross to remove:We've also refurbished the Overview page, making it clearer and better utilized. You'll notice that the Notification card is now on this page. Nå kan du legge til eller fjerne flere fagområder når du oppretter eller endrer sjekkliste-maler for rutinerunder. Merk flere fagområder i listen i Opprett ny mal for å legge til og klikk kryss for å fjerne:Oversikt-siden er også forbedret, slik at du lett kan se alle kortene som vises her. Merk at Notifikasjoner nå er inkludert i denne oversikten.

InField is looking good! The layout on the checkboxes used across the application is now aligned with the Cognite product suite. This release also includes backend improvements and preparations for new functionalities soon to be made available to the users-InField sitt brukergrensesnitt er forbedret og sjekkboksene er nå identiske med resten av Cognite sine produkter. I denne versjonen har vi også gjort noen kode-forbedringer og forberedt ny funksjonalitet som snart er klar for brukerne! 

You'll experience a variety of smaller improvements made across several areas in this version of InField. The performance on the Overview page is faster, you'll get more accurate results when you search for tags and a better preview of images uploaded to tags. We've also fixed a bug that occurred if you searched multiple times for a specific time series on the Trend page.Det er flere mindre forbedringer på tvers av InField i denne versjonen. Det er raskere ytelse på Oversikt-siden, mer nøyaktige resultat fra søk etter tagger og bedre forhåndsvisningen av bilder på tagger. Vi har også rettet en feil som oppsto hvis du søkte flere ganger etter en spesifikk tidsserie på Trender.

Select different states for elements in a checklist based on a template. The available states depend on the setup of the template. Here you see the full range.To include these states when you create a template, use the new option Checklist states in the Create new template window. Select the states you want to use, but note that To do and OK are required. When you have created a template, you can click Template settings on top of the page to re-visit this window and make further changes.If a checklist is already created from the template, no template updates are displayed in the checklist. These will only be visible in the checklist created in the first calendar week following the template update.The checklist states are also reflected if you create a PDF report. The Complete column shows an overall status, and each weekday is marked with one of the state icons.We've also made some minor improvements. Click a tag in a checklist, and the Tag page opens, then go back, and InField will navigate back to your starting point and highlight the tag you clicked. You'll also see that re-ordering long lists on templates now scroll flawlessly. This was an issue for some users running Infield on Windows OS.  Nå kan du velge blant ulike statuser for oppgaver i sjekklister som er basert på en mal. Hvilke statuser som vises, avhenger av oppsettet til malen. Her ser du alle.For å inkludere ulike statuser når du oppretter en mal, bruker du det nye valget Status - sjekklister i vinduet Opprett ny mal. Velg de statusene du vil bruke, men merk at Skal utføres og OK må brukes. Når du har opprettet en mal, kan du klikke Innstillinger for mal, som du finner øverst på siden, for å åpne dette vinduet på nytt og gjøre flere endringer.Hvis en sjekkliste allerede er opprettet fra denne malen, vises ikke oppdateringer av malen i denne sjekklisten. De vises i sjekklisten som opprettes i første kalender-uke etter oppdatering av malen.De ulike statusene vises også når du åpner en PDF-rapport fra en sjekkliste. Kolonnen Utført viser en sammenlagt status og hver ukedag viser de ulike status-ikonene.Denne versjonen av InField innholder også noen mindre forbedringer. Klikk på en tagg i en sjekkliste og gå deretter tilbake. InField navigerer til utgangspunktet og fremhver taggen du klikket på. Vi har også fikset en feil med sortering av lange lister i maler som oppsto for noen av brukerne som kjører InField på Windows OS. 

If your area of expertise is Metering, you'll now find this as a separate option in the Profile list with areas of expertise. The templates are sorted according to the roles selected in this list to give you easy access to the relevant tasks.We've also fixed some minor bugs on highlighted assets and navigation in 3D models, and a bug on the template sorting when a template was deleted. Hvis ditt kompetanseområde er Måletekniker, finner du nå dette som et egen valg i rolle-listen under Profil. Maler sorteres etter rollen som er valgt i denne listen, slik at du lett kan se relevante oppgaver.I denne versjonen av InField har vi også rettet noen mindre feil ved merking av utstyr og navigering i 3D-modellen og ved sortering av maler når en mal ble slettet.
