Roadway history

Roadway history records show how changes in the structure of a roadway affect the associated work orders, service requests, and inspections.

For example, adding length to a roadway will require adjustments in the measurements of a work order that is located beyond the added length. Infor Public Sector keeps one roadway history record of the original location of the work order, then adds another roadway history record showing the work order's new location. The first roadway history is expired.

You can view roadway history records on the Roadway History tab of the Work Order InfoViewer. If the location of a Roadway tool operation falls within the range covered by a work order, you will see two roadway history records, one for the portion of the work order before the location of the tool operation and one for the portion after.

For example, suppose a work order covers the range from 12 miles to 16 miles from the start of a roadway. Using the Add Roadway Length tool, you add 1.5 miles starting 13 miles from the start of the roadway. This will create two roadway history records for the work order: one extending from 12 to 13 miles from the start of the roadway and the other extending from 14.5 to 17.5 miles from the start of the roadway. The records are grouped by operation on the Roadway History tab.

The work order costs are divided proportionally between the roadway history records, as indicated in the Distributed costs in % column. In this example, the first roadway history record receives 25% of the work order costs, because it represents 25% of the original work order. The second roadway history record receives the remaining 75% of the costs. The costs for a particular tool operation will always add up to 100%.

Each grouping represents the current cost distribution of the work order after a tool operation, so you might see the same record in multiple groupings.
