Thank you for your answers Prashant and Danielle. I've tried what you have both suggested. It still returns me the latest record thats committed to the database. Not the Transid from the workflow transactions that are at that time being created. I have moved my logic to an escalation that will query ...

Hi Prashant, When ordering the result set like this, I added "order by transdate desc" at the end of the where clause. Doing this is still giving me only the last workflow transactions that had been put in the database, it is not returning the transactions that are currently being created. Im assuming ...

RE: PM Work Type

Hi Ashok, I believe the PM application simply shares the same worktype domain you build from organizations -> work order options -> work types. That being said, in Condition monitoring, you can set up your monitoring point to create a work order from a PM rather than a job plan. If you were creating ...

Hi Venkatrao, Have you checked out the PO.POREVISIONNUM field? It seems like its doing exactly what your custom requirement is asking for. I dont think you need to create a script for this at all.

RE: Set PM Target and Finish Date

Hi Megha! The easiest way to do this is with an automation script. The start date is easy, because it can be driven off the Next Due Date on the PM. But the target finish date is driven from the duration on the job plan, and since every month is different there is no single job plan that can have ...

I may be missing a step, i did not see a change, but my problem may be that i did not create a $0 invoice. How do you create the $0 invoice? Do I add my 2 lines, the receipt 5000, return -10000, and set the unit cost to 0 for both lines? thanks Eric

HI Julio, Sorry I skipped right to what I had done to fix the invoice which was the revesral and didn't answer your question. The first time through, I created a new invoice, and I did go to the materials tab and saw my Receipt for 5000 and my return for -10000. After I selected these and set the status ...

I've been playing around in Invoices today and I see that I can use the action to Reverse Invoice. This will allow me to back out the bad invoice I created that invoiced the wrong lines. I was then able to create a new invoice and properly invoice the correct lines via the materials tab, and my work ...

Julio, Thank you, yes this seems to be what my issue is, only relying on the PO lines from my PO instead of selecting all of the lines from the materials tab.

Well there is a little more to it. The plan was to associate an inspection from to a job plan, and then have the work orders created from a PM. Then in EZmax while they are completing the work order, they would also fill out the inspection result. The issue was, in online, the button shows up for ...

Julio this is excellent information, its almost like you were sitting in the meetings deciding these things! This also is helping to explain why there is a missing relationship when you try to conduct an inspection. The INSPECTIONRESULTS table is looking for ASSET, but IBM named it ASSETS. Here is ...

RE: Automatic Script to Prevent Work Order Closure Without Labor Hours Recorded

I've typically seen the auto closure run off of an Escalation. The escalation query checks for complete greater than a specific number of days, but it can also check for the existence of a labor record. If I was going to do this in an automation script it would look something like this. ''' launchpoint ...
