Grid questions
12/02/08 at 09:15:44

I want to see the classic routing notes when I hit the routings button in IN-A. In the T6 program I just hit the notes button when I was on the sequence I wanted to see when the routing popped up. I was told by Lynn that I could add the notes to the routing grid so I could see them using the T7 IN-A program. Problem is I cant get them to work and can never figure out how to modify these grids. I have added column headers and field names using the SU-A program but non of it shows up in the lookup grid. I have search for clues on this forum, the wiki, and EVO help, but none of it helps or makes any sense to me. Is there some concise step by step information on how to do this somewhere. Wasted too much time trying to do a simple task. It shouldn't be this difficult.

Thanks,
Steve

Steve,

I can see your confusion - although I am hardly an old hand a manipulating the grids, I have successfully made changes/additions before. I experimented with adding a routing note on line 1 to an item and then tried to add it to the grid (both in the field data and sort keys). Other fields will add, but I couldn't get the note to show up either. I tried adding MTRO.INSTR to the links and notes field listing, but it didn't like that very much. I would have expected the first line to show up when I added MTRO.INSTR(1) - but it did not. So it is definitely not obvious as to how to make this work correctly.

Lynn_Pantic Administrator evolution (n) - gradual change to a different form Posts: 5663	Re: Grid questions Reply #3 - 12/02/08 at 16:57:06 For array elements (such as the Routing Notes) you have to manually type the array element number in square brackets after the field name thus forcing the field name to be (for example) MTRO.INSTR[1] for the first line and MTRO.INSTR[2] for the second line etc. I agree, not intuitive at all but that is how you need to do it.

It's wierd, but it doesn't seem to work.

SU-A - Open ROUTING - Grid name = Routing; File name = Routing; Form name = WBKLOOKUP
Links and Notes Fields: MTRO.CODE, MTRO.OPER and added MTRO.INSTR just in case.
Added a Column header of "Routing"; inserted the Field name of MTRO.INSTR[1]
Went into an item with a single line routing and added notes in lines 1 thru 5.
In IN-A, under the item hit the routings button and the new column doesn't even show up?! No column, ho header, nothing. Huh

I added the mtro.instr[1] & 2 myself and it is not coming out on the grid.. the good thing is I can do something about that... It will be in the next release.

Posts: 789 Gender:	Re: Grid questions Reply #8 - 12/03/08 at 13:23:07 Ok I fixed it, it was also a problem if you were printing grids too... technically the field MTRO.INSTR[#] does not exist in the data dictionary, so I had to strip off the [#] and look for MTRO.INSTR when doing a lookup to get the size and type out of the dictionary. It will be in the December update.
