Maximo 7.5
I have created a cloned application of WO and added an extra field LR_RECTYPE to limit the records returned with the application (PSESCANS). I have set the default value of "PSE" withing application designer and that works fine except when I apply a job plan, then the task work orders do not have my default value. How can I set this value with an automation script for the task work orders?
Create an object level automation script for the onAdd event for WOACTIVITY that copies the value from the parent to the child.

Thanks Chris,
Can you please provide an example of what that syntax might look like?
As Chris said try this on WOACTIVITY
PARENTPROCESS – this relationship already exists and after a quick look it seems to return a 1:1 :-
In variable IN_LR_RECTYPE bound to PARENTPROCESS.LR_RECTYPE
Out variable OUT_LR_RECTYPE bound to LR_RECTYPE
Script
OUT_LR_RECTYPE = in_LR_RECTYPE

I don't have an example to have (I can send later) but you really want to navigate to the parent using the getOwner() method rather than using a relationship, the relationship requires that the parent has already been saved to the database whereas referencing to owner will retrieve the value from an unsaved parent.
You also want to consider what you expect yo happen should the RECTYPE be changed - do you allow this?
Chris.

Chris,
LR_RECTYPE does not change. It is a value that I use to filter records for the application. I would appreciate any examples you can provide. I am trying to get a handle on Automation Scripting and with each one I create I am becoming a bit more familiar with syntax and usage of the app.
Ian,
I tried the method you provided, but it is not setting the LR_RECTYPE value for task WO's.
I certainly appreciate your help.
Chris was right you need the header to be saved the syntax will be something like the following no time to test sorry
mbo.setValue(' LR_RECTYPE ',mbo.getOwner().getThisMboSet().getDouble('LR_RECTYPE'),11L)
give it a try

This example is from Bruno's blog here http://maximodev.blogspot.com/2013/05/link-parent-child-records-in-maximo.html
from psdi.mbo import MboConstants mbo.setValue('TB1ID', mbo.getOwner().getString("TB1ID"), MboConstants.NOACCESSCHECK))
You really want to add a check to ensure the record has a value first, something like
If (mbo.getOwner()):

Thank you both gentlemen.

Both return:

When using javascript , do i need to define any variables?
mbo.setValue(' LR_RECTYPE'),mbo.getOwner().getString('LR_RECTYPE'),11L)
there is a space in the one above -- removed :-

I am sorry guys but with the following:
from psdi.mbo import MboConstants
mbo.setValue('LR_RECTYPE'),mbo.getOwner().getString('LR_RECTYPE'),11L)
I get the same error. I have not defined any variables.
The
from psdi.mbo import MboConstants
is not required in the example below as I used 11L
I have tested the above with script language set as Jython with no errors when the script is saved
When are you getting the error ?

Why wouldn't you just add the value to the job plan and have it cross over to woactivity when the job plan is used. This way you'll be covered from WO created from wogen and work orders manually created from PM application. Set/fix the data at the source (JobPlans task) instead if midstream.

Sarah,
This was my initial approach, but I was not able to get the attribute LR_RECTYPE to cross over from the JPTASK to the work order when the job plan was applied.
If in doubt, count the parentheses...
mbo.setValue('LR_RECTYPE',mbo.getOwner().getString('LR_RECTYPE'),11L)

Chris,
I should have caught that...ughhh
The script compiled successfully. After creating a new work order and applying the job plan, the field is not being populated. I have the script set to fire on "Add"
select wonum,lr_rectype from maximo.workorder where siteid = 'PSE' and wonum in ('11583','11584')
WONUM LR_RECTYPE
11583 PSE
11584 NULL
OnAdd of WOACTIVITY or WORKORDER?

Chris,
WOACTIVITY
You're not in admin mode...? Try WORKORDER but if you do make sure you confirm it's a child before referencing the owner or you'll get a exception.

That did it Chris. Thank you so much. I am not sure what I would do without this forum and folks like you and Ian that do your very best to help when you can.
You may want to verify it works as desired when a WO is created via the wogen cron AND manually from the select action menu within PMs. Just to make sure all your bases are covered.
