Hi!

We’re trying to set up an object connection transformation to inventory part to the Shop Order Multilevel Repair Structure page. 

Our best guess would be to set up

  • Document Object Connection on LU ShopOrdUtil, view AS_BUILT_CONFIG_HEAD_SO or AS_BUILT_CONFIGURATION_SO. 
  • Object Connection Transfer with InventoryPart as source and ShopOrdUtil as target.

It is possible to set up, but the page shows no attachments at all. In fact, there is no paperclip symbol at all and no attachment panes, other than for the shop order at the very top. The rest of the page is connected to a tree. 

We’re guessing there is some limitation that makes the object connection transformation impossible to use here, or does someone know of a workaround?

And, if you know it’s not possible, exactly why?

Hi ​@KennethP,

I tried to configure Object Connection Transformation between Shop Order Multilevel Repair Structure Page and Inventory Part, however, system falling in some errors while transferring the document from Inventory Part page to Multilevel Repair Page.

  1. Created new record in Object Connection screen for Entity (LU) AsBuiltConfiguration to enable paperclip option for level 1 onwards.
  1. Configured Object Connection Transformation where Target LU is AsBuiltConfiguration while Source LU is InventoryPart. This Transformation ideally transfer document from Inventory Part to Multilevel Repair Page, however falling in error.

 

Not sure if it is a bug or some additional configuration needs to be done.

Hi Abdul,

Thanks, we tried that alternative too with the same result. My guess is that we are dealing with a limitation here but it’s difficult to find ut exactly why. I think we’ll try our luck with IFS support on this one.
