Haul Infinity
Trucks - Models - Axle Weights
Total axle weights and payload are calculated when setting up trucks.
Truck - Limits - Export All
Ability to import/export all limits for a selected truck as a single file.
Production Scheduler
Improved Other Site Feed
Bringing in a feed from another site has been made easier and functionality expanded to import CSVs to allow users to combine feed for any source with their APS schedule. This could include combining an underground schedule of the mine with the open pit schedule in APS.
Updated process no longer requires the users to create extra stockpiles, as this is now taken care automatically.
Mining Fields setup between the other sites and main site no longer need to be the same, which will improve flexibility for the individual sites. If Fields share the same name they will be automatically mapped, otherwise the user can easily map the fields manually.
Maintenance Delays
Import capabilities expanded to support csv’s.
Agent Proximity - Minimum Quantity per Agent
Ability to set a minimum quantity per agent in schedule. This is designed to better mimic agents leaving work areas as they run out of ‘space’ to safely operate.
Can Skip Parcels in Sequence
New Gantt sequence option which allows agents to skip parcels in a blocks. This can be useful in cases when ore can only be used on dayshift or when stockpile space is very limited.
Percentage Based Max Agent Rate
Max Agent Rate for Sequence bars can now be adjusted by a percentage rather than just a rate.
Inherit Max Agent Rate
Ability to Inherit Max Agent Rate when agents are following another agent of the same activity.
Percentage Based JiT Dependencies
New input into Jit Dependencies allows for partial completion of successor prior to the completion of the predecessor. Potential use case could be to allow for partial drilling of a pattern immediately adjacent to a blast.
Single Period Shading
New shading functionality added to only shade the current period in the animation. Note this only applies to period shadings.
Animation Annotations
Annotations have been added to animations which can be simply drawing manually or added via scripts.
Improved Chrono Chart Functionality
Creating and Editing Chrono Charts has been improved with addition of a new right hand panel to provide bulk edit abilities when multiple edits have been selected.
Incremental search functionality has been added to Field and Series Type dropdowns.
Custom Report Builder
New report builder allows users to combine multiple different pieces of information into a single report. This report is automatically updated and can be exported directly to DOCX, PDF & PPT, ready for customers.
Configurable Report Elements:
Chrono Tables & Charts
Period Plots
Viewports
Gantt Reports
Gantt Charts
Spreadsheet Reports
Pivot Tables & Charts
Rapid Reserver
Spatial Conformetrics
Tactical Scheduler
Standardise Setup Steps
To better align with the other products, Settings and Configuration Options have been combined.
Data Fields
Data field setup has been combined into a single step with multiple field collections which aligns to APS.
Map Tables & Map Fields
Map Tables and Map Fields have been updated to improve usability and align with APS.
Parcel Subsets
To improve visibility of Parcel Subsets, the setup has been removed from the Reserves Tab to it’s own workflow step.
Record Subsets
To improve visibility of Record Subsets, the setup has been removed from the Reserves Tab to it’s own workflow step.
Other Sites
Allows users to bring in a feed source from another ATS schedule or from an underground feed source via a csv. Material from the second site will appear in the schedule as a stockpile.
Non-Spatial Guidance
Allows users to import data from another plan from use as guidance in the software. Imported data will not directly impact the schedule, but can be used in reporting to compared guidance data to planned data.
Destination Logic Code Filters
Added ability to create destination code filters directly in the UI without having them in extensions.
Improved Step Logic
Added ability to automatically create step logic when material flows through several stockpiles and processes before reaching its final destination. Rather than having to create individual steps to go between every stockpile, the user can now tick ‘Destination as Stock Point’ and ATS will create step logic to go from Source to stockpile and from stockpile to final destination.
Product Specification & Constraints Folders
Added ability to add folders to Product Specifications and Constraints.
Improved Chrono Chart Functionality
Creating and Editing Chrono Charts has been improved with addition of a new right hand panel to provide bulk edit abilities when multiple edits have been selected.
Incremental search functionality has been added to Field and Series Type dropdowns.
Blast Polygons in Period Plots
New ability to display Blast Construction lines in period plots.
Single Period Shading
New shading functionality added to only shade the current period in the animation. Note this only applies to period shadings.
