A Service view, is a technical view which provides the access to products managed by the service team, which can be an organization or a partner entity.
This feature is available for the following modules:
CONNECTED FIELD SERVICES
The initial configuration of your DPS already contains a Customer View you can use as a starting point.
For more details, you can refer to the Default Service View article.

The view is created, and now you can configure it.
Select the Service User Types that will access the view.
Add the pages that your service users (e.g. Technicians) will use during their activities.
You can copy them from the default service view and add new ones.
Configuring the Thing Definition Service View
Other than configuring the General Service Views, you have also to create the service view for your thing definitions.
We suggest you to define the common view structure in the top level thing definition, and into each specific thing definition just override the templates.
Enter the Interfaces / Views page.
Select the Thing Definition tab.
Select the top level thing definition (e.g. Base).
Click the Add View button.
Select the Service type.
The view is created, and now you can configure it.
Select the Service User Types that will access the view.
Add the tabs (sub-pages) that your service will use during their activities.
For instance: Overview, Events, Diagnostic, Configuration, Maintenance, Testing.
Overview
This is the main tab when entering the machine details page, it should provide a glance of all the main machine information including:
the machine identity information
the synthetic value or index of all the main aspect to take care (e.g. Connection, Presence of failures or anomalies, and any other relevant insight).
the presence of alerts and pending actions.
The Thing Details widget can be used to display the machine main information, such as:
Serial Number: the serial number uniquely identifying the machine, it can be helpful when dealing with the support and technicians.
Product Model: the name of the product model.
Connection Status: the current connection status (OFFLINE, ONLINE).
Operating Status: the current operating status (STANDBY, WORKING).
Any additional property that can halp the service user.
By placing the Value widget multiple times you can display the current value of the metrics that are more relevant to service users.
This widget is automatically highlighted according to metric thresholds, so that when the user enters the page, he can see immediately whether there is something to take care of.
In addition to be more effective, we suggest you also to include the list of active alerts and actions related to the machine.
Events
The tab providing access to all machine events (active and historical).
Within the Bar Chart, the Pareto Line can be visualized to determine which events (Failures and Anomalies) the machine spends most time on, and focus only on them.

The tab providing access to machine data through charts (Time Series Chart, Bar Chart) and tables (Multi Metric List) widgets.
For more details about the contents of this tab refer to the Remote Diagnostic article.

The tab where the user can:
access the maintenance registry and edit new maintenance activity notes
