Hi All,
Our Maximo version is:
We use Route (with route stops as "Entries In the Work Order's Multi Asset, Location and CI Table" and with inspection form setup) in a PM to do Inspections.
Everything works fine. However, after the PM generates the initial inspection work order, in the Work Order "Multiple Assets and Locations" section, the "Target Description" field value of each location will always get overridden by the "Inspection Form Name" ("RECFIREINSP" in below example).
We actually successfully customized to cross over the "Route Stop Description" value from the Route Stops to the PM generated work order's "Multiple Assets and Locations items Target Description" for users to differentiate some same location as different areas to do inspection. But with above inspection form name override, all our previous customization work now fails.
I tried to use automation script to check what the mbo currentvalue is and then tried to stop it being changed again. But it looks like this "Inspection Form Name" override happens later than my automation script launch point and will not be stopped.
My automation script has attribute launch point for MULTIASSETLOCCI.TARGETDESC as below:
Automation Script is as below:
The script will get launched every time I generate work order from the PM with the Route. And with Line #31 not being commented out I can see that initialValue and previousValue are both null, but currentValue is the correct value we want to cross over from "Route Stop Description" by our previously created cross over domain database configuration):
However, with Line #33 or #34, it will not stop the Inspection Form name to override the currentValue we want "Target Description" to finally hold.
I also tested with removing the associated Inspection Form from the "Route - Route Stops", and it proved that my above script actually worked.
After removing associated Inspection form from the Route Stops:
- if commenting out both script line #33 and #34, the work order result will show the values we want in Target Description:
- if commenting out only Line #34, the work order result will set Target Description as Null:
But if we give inspection form to the route stops, it looks like after my automation script launches, the "Inspection Form Name" value will still override to "Target Description" at some point which I don't know when and how to stop it.
Can anyone please help advise a solution to this?
Thanks very much!
