Systems and methods described herein may improve configuration file generation and management in an industrial automation system. Indeed, described herein is an integrated development environment (IDE) tool that may be integrated with a version control system (VCS) to improve change control issues that may otherwise arise when multiple IT devices have access to a same project and/or configuration file.

Version change systems and methods applied to industrial automation systems

Provided herein are techniques related to an industrial system that may have a plurality of industrial automation devices, a database that has a plurality of location datasets that correspond to the plurality of industrial automation devices, and a monitoring system that may communicate with the industrial automation devices via a network and the database. The monitoring system may send a first request to the industrial automation devices in the industrial system to identify an industrial automation device having an active maintenance status. The active maintenance status may be indicative of a maintenance request for the industrial automation device. The monitoring system may send a second request to the database for a location dataset associated with the industrial automation device, generate a visualization that includes the active maintenance status and the location dataset associated with the industrial automation device, and display the visualization via an electronic display.
