Manually creating Assembly register

Updated over 5 months ago

Description

The following support note describes the steps to interface work order creation that would normally be created manually through the Assembly register.

Detail Steps

Using the Import Export function.

The WMS uses XML files to hold all the information required to create an Assembly.

Each XML file represents one Assembly with component lines.

The following support note describes how the XML files should be formed and how they are imported into the WMS.

1. Select File, Import, then browse for the folder and import the required Assembly file (An automated task can be setup to collect and import any files if required).

2. The progress bar on the import dialog will move from 0 to 100% and on import completion will show the number of successfully imported files.

To check the system details of import the Status Reporter (Audit Trail) should be used.

An Import XML file MUST CONTAIN all the required tags in order to be correctly understood and accepted by the WMS.

An example workorder is shown below and attached.

Workflow Options

  • NOTES

    This feature is intended primarily for developers using the Datapel API and requires access to the Database and Indexes. It is therefore recommended to discuss your requirements with a Datapel Consultant prior to using this feature.

  • AUTOMATION

    This import task can be processed without the API, however, requires the files to be uploaded to our Cloud server environment via SFTP or other means, currently the software does not allow manual upload via the user interface, this function is under review.

Workflow Restrictions

  • This procedure should only be followed by authorised system administrators or Datapel support technicians.

  • The Import Export feature is used to integrate the WMS with customised data capture systems. This is currently a DEVELOPER feature and not intended for general use.
