Oracle Field Service
Using Core Application
Nearby activities search
You cannot search for segmentable activities or their segments using the Nearby Activities option.
Activity history
You can retrieve history from both, a non-scheduled segmentable activity and a segment of a scheduled segmentable
activity. The history for a non-scheduled activity contains records for the activity itself. The history for a segment
contains records for the current segment and for the entire activity. Some actions relate both, the segmentable activity
and one of its segments. In this case, the history contains two records, the one for the entire activity marked with
(segmentable activity) in the Action column.
Processing of segmentable activities by Daily Extract
Daily Extract stores segmentable activities and their segments together with activities of other types and extracts
them into the Activity Fields file. You can identify segmentable activities by their type—'multiday_activity' for the entire
activity and 'multiday_activity_segment' for individual segments. If a segmentable activity is still in progress, each daily
extraction contains the completed segments of the activity in the current day routes. As soon as the entire activity is
completed, the extracted file contains the data of both, the individual segments and the entire segmentable activity.
Add a Segmentable Activity
You can segment a complex task to create a segmentable activity in a pool of a bucket or a route. You can also mark the
activity as Scheduled activity or Non-scheduled activity after creating.
