Reset the value of a field when another field is modified
Reset the value of a field when another field is modified

This entry is part of the Maximo Java Development series.
Today I want to share with you some Java sample code to reset the value of a field when another field is modified.
In the example below I have implemented a little piece of logic to reset the WORKORDER.SUPEVISOR field when the WORKORDER.OWNERGROUP is modified.
Here is the Java code.
package cust.psdi.app.workorder;import psdi.mbo.*;import psdi.util.*;import java.rmi.*;/** * Custom field class to reset the supervisor when the Owner Group is changed */public class FldWOOwnerGroup extends psdi.app.workorder.FldWOOwnerGroup{ public FldWOOwnerGroup(MboValue mbv) throws MXException { super(mbv); } public void action() throws MXException, RemoteException { if (!getMboValue().isNull() && !getMboValue().equals(getMboValue().getPreviousValue())) { getMboValue("SUPERVISOR").setValueNull(NOACCESSCHECK|NOVALIDATION_AND_NOACTION); } super.action(); }}Deploy the FldWOOwnerGroup.class file in your Maximo source tree and attach it on WORKORDER.OWNERGROUP field using the Database Configuration application.
