Previously, the object connections in the document revision page showed both the object ID in the key field and the object description. Can both of these information be displayed here?

Hi @jami,

Good question, after introduction teh Object Sequence as the unique code for the equipment this is not shown anymore. It should be possible to retriev this via a custom field, but then that is only valid in case the connection is on Equipment (so it will not show any data in case the object connection is to another LU. Previously the primairy key was CONTRACT and MCH_CODE.

Maybe someone else is coming with a better idea, but so far I can see is that only the Sequence and the description are shown.

Further, creating an idea here at the community could solve your question. I think it is a valid question, so hopefully it can be managed in core! 

Good luck,

Robert

Hi Jami,

After selecting the Object LU field, when selecting the object key field you can see the details including the object description. After selecting the object key and saving, the object description field will automatically be filled. I think there is no issue that both of this information be displayed.

Hi @jami 

 

As @EqeRobertK mentions, the key values for EquipmentObject LU is changed to Object Sequence from old values, Contract and Object ID since 22R2. You should be able to get this from a custom field and you have to create a read only custom field in EquipmentObject to show both object ID and description. Then use the get method of that CF to the method column in object connections window. This is the method that will be used to fetch Object Description in document revision. Currently it is set to Get_Mch_Code which return object id. This should theoretically work.
