MIF Question

From: John Ballnik (2012-09-10 15:06)

Hi Gang,
I have a custom detail section of the PO object that acts very similar to POLINE.  This detail set (POCC) has a line number and the PO number.  There may be times where the data is sent over from the External system more than once and I want these details to just copy over the already existing records in Maximo.  Right now it's creating a new record.  So for instance
Currently in Maximo
Line 1 - Details 1
Line 2 - Details 2
The incoming record from the External system (Note that line 3 is the new record)
Line 1 - Details 1
Line 2 - Details 2
Line 3 - Details 3
Now this object POCC has the following records
Line 1 - Details 1
Line 1 - Details 1
Line 2 - Details 2
Line 2 - Details 2
Line 3 - Details 3
Does anyone know how to eliminate this from occurring and just insert the new record?
thanks,
John B

New in MAXIMO 7, the PO application, including POLINE, POCOST, etc, has a new field called "REVISIONNUM". By default, MAXIMO increments the REVISIONNUM by 1 and adds a new record in the database every time you send PO data into MAXIMO from an external system. We implemented our system around this new concept during our 6 to 7 upgrade.
If you want the new PO data to just update the existing PO record in MAXIMO instead of creating a new record, have you tried to set the revisionnum in your incoming data to what you have in MAXIMO? Or try add POID, POLINEID, etc. Basically you want to add some fields that can tell MAXIMO to update instead of insert. I have never tried it in 7, did something similar in 6. If that works, you would need to differentiate the case between a new PO (where you don't need to set revisionnum) and update to an existing PO (where you set the revisionnum). I typically add this kind of pre-processing logic in the UserExit class.

Hi June...thanks for the email.  Unfortunately, that feature is available in 7.5 and not in 7.1.1.6.  I'm thinking about creating a user exit class and removing the duplicate rows in there but was wondering if there was an easier way.  This is

Gang...it is an AddChange and is a custom table, it is not out of the box object.  Is there somewhere in Maximo where I can set the POCC.LINENUM field to be unique per PO?

Yea, that is what I am thinking too, when you created the table did you specify the column and check the enforce uniqueness?

Gang...a big thank you to Dinesh!  I got it working.
There is a field in DB Config called Alternate Index, you need to set that to the index of the columns.  Be sure NOT to enforce uniqueness or you will get a index error when you try to import.
Thanks,
John
