Deployment
Deploy Rounds for the First Time
Before you begin
The following table outlines the steps that you must complete to deploy and configure this module for the first time. These instructions assume that you have completed the steps for deploying the basic system architecture.
These tasks may be completed by multiple people in your organization. We recommend, however, that the tasks be completed in the order in which they are listed.
Procedure
| Step | Task | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Review the Rounds data model to determine which relationship definitions you will need to modify to include your custom asset families. Modify any relationship definitions as needed. For example, if you have created a new asset family, create a relationship definition as follows:
| This step is required only if you have asset data in families outside of the baseline Equipment and Functional Location families. |
| 2 |
Assign Security Users to the following Rounds Security Groups and Roles:
| This step is required. Note: The MAPM Security Group that has been provided with GE Digital APM v3.6 is also available. The user privileges are the same for the MAPM Security User and the MI Operator Rounds Security User. However, we recommend that you use the MI Operator Rounds User Security Group instead of the MAPM Security Group. |
| 3 | Manage Measurement Location Template mappings. | This step is required only if you added fields to the Measurement Location Template family via Configuration Manager. |
| 4 | Install the GE Digital APM application on the mobile device that you plan to use for data collection. | This step is required only if you will use a mobile device for data collection. |
| 5 | Set the local time zone on the mobile device that you will use for data collection, typically the user time zone. | This step is required only if you will use a mobile device for data collection. |
| 6 | This step is required. The scheduled compliance task should be configured to start as soon as the Rounds module is deployed and set to run continuously as long as Rounds in use. | |
| 7 | As needed, modify your server timeout settings. | This step is only required if you want to process large amounts of data in a single transaction (for example, if you collect a large number of readings for a Route or several Routes and then attempt to upload all of those readings simultaneously). If you need to modify server timeout settings, follow the instructions in KBA 6278. |
| 8 | Configure automatic synchronization of Measurement Location and Measurement Location Template Records with Allowable Values. | This step is optional. |
| 9 | Grant permissions to the Everyone group to view records that belong to the Site Reference family. | This step is required. |
Upgrade or Update Rounds to V4.3.0.6.0
Before you begin
The following tables outline the steps that you must complete to upgrade this module to V4.3.0.6.0. These instructions assume that you have completed the steps for upgrading the basic GE Digital APM system architecture.
These tasks may be completed by multiple people in your organization. We recommend, however, that the tasks be completed in the order in which they are listed.
Procedure
Manage the Measurement Location Template Mappings
About this task
The Measurement Location Template family and the Measurement Location family are provided as part of the baseline Rounds data model. If you create a Measurement Location Template in the GE Digital APM application, you can then create a Measurement Location based on that template. If you do so, all values in Measurement Location Template fields that also exist on the Measurement Location will be mapped automatically to the new Measurement Location.
You might find that the Measurement Location Template and Measurement Location datasheets do not contain all the fields that you need. If so, you can add fields to the Measurement Location Template family so that the values from the new fields will be mapped to Measurement Locations based on that template. To do so, you will need to complete the following steps.
Procedure
- Create a new Measurement Location Template field.
- Add the new Measurement Location Template field to the Measurement Location Template datasheet.
- Create a new Measurement Location field. We recommend that the field caption of this field be the same as the field caption you defined for the Measurement Location Template field. This will ensure that the text in the field IDs that identify the fields are the same. If tthey are not the same, the values will not be mapped from the Measurement Location Template to the Measurement Location.
- Add the new Measurement Location field to the Measurement Location datasheet.
Upgrade Steps for Lubrication
If you have Lubricant, Lubrication Requirement, or Lubrication Requirement Template records in your database, complete these steps.
Procedure
Modify Checkpoints Linked to Multiple Assets
About this task
In GE Digital APM GE Digital APM, a Checkpoint can be linked to one asset. During upgrade from versions V3.x to GE Digital APM, the related asset entity key is added to a field on the Checkpoint family. Therefore, if you have Checkpoints that are linked to more than one asset, then you must remove the links to the additional assets prior to upgrading.
Procedure
Upgrade Records with Schedules Containing End Dates
About this task
When upgrading from any V3.x version to a V4.x version, follow these steps to ensure that schedules for the following record types are upgraded successfully:
- Checkpoint Task
- Measurement Location
- Lubrication Requirement
- Measurement Location Template
- Lubrication Requirement Template
These steps are required to ensure that any records containing schedules with end dates are upgraded successfully.
Procedure
- Review the affected record types to determine whether there are any schedules containing end dates. You can use the following queries to locate these records:
Record Type Query Checkpoint Templates (i.e., Measurement Template and Lubrication Requirement Template records) SELECT ENTY_KEY, ENTY_ID, MI_ML_TMPLT_SCHEDULE_C FROM MIV_MI_CP_TMPLT WHERE MI_ML_TMPLT_SCHEDULE_C LIKE '<?xml%' AND MI_ML_TMPLT_SCHEDULE_C NOT LIKE '%<EndDate xsi:nil="true" />%'Checkpoints (i.e., Measurement Location and Lubrication Requirement records) SELECT MI_MEAS_LOC_SCHEDULE_C FROM MIV_MI_CHECK_PT WHERE MI_MEAS_LOC_SCHEDULE_C LIKE '<?xml%' AND MI_MEAS_LOC_SCHEDULE_C NOT LIKE '%<EndDate xsi:nil="true" />%'Checkpoint Tasks SELECT ENTY_KEY, ENTY_ID, MI_TASK_SCHEDULE_C FROM MIV_MI_CP_TASK0 WHERE MI_TASK_SCHEDULE_C LIKE '<?xml%' AND MI_TASK_SCHEDULE_C NOT LIKE '%<EndDate xsi:nil="true" />%' - For each record with a schedule containing an end date:
- Note the record and the end date value.
- In the Schedule field, select the […] button to open the Schedule window.
- In the Range of recurrence section, select No end date, and then select OK.
- Proceed with the database upgrade as normal.
- Once the database upgrade is complete, in GE Digital APM, locate the records you noted in step 2.
- In each record, update the schedule to set the required end date.
Grant Data Permissions to the Everyone Group
Procedure
- Select the Site Reference family. The workspace for the Site Reference family appears, displaying a list of assigned Security Users and Groups for the family.
- Select
.The Assign Groups window appears.
- Select
.The Everyone group is granted permission to view records that belong to the Site Reference family.
Rounds Security Groups and Roles

The following table lists the default privileges that members of each group have to the Rounds entity and relationship families.
- Users who should be able to run Rounds queries to view the Rounds data after it has been uploaded from a tablet or a mobile device will need a combination of the privileges listed in the following table, depending on the families included in the queries they want to run.
-
To create work requests via Operator Rounds Recommendations, users must also have the appropriate privileges to create EAM notifications (e.g., be a member of the MI SAP Interface User Security Group).
- The privileges assigned to the members of the MAPM Security Group, which was provided in the baseline Rounds module in Meridium Enterprise APM V3.6.0, are also assigned to the members of the MI Operator Rounds Mobile User Security Group. We recommend that you use the MI Operator Rounds User Security Group instead of the MAPM Security Group.
