Thanks in advance for all those will help.

IE11 Compatibility with 9.3 SP7

Has anyone tried IE11 with 9.3 SP7?  Any field reports would be appreciated. 

Many websites are incompatibility with IE9 (my current browser), however IT (work) tells advises against advancing to IE11.  I imagine that latest version of Innovator is compatibile with IE11, however, I could not find anything that address my specific question.  Constructive advice / field reports are appreciated.  Thank you.

The "Name" field is required. You must provide a value for this field before saving.

Internet Explorer 10 : The browser has failed the minimum browser requirement check

Hi,

I have installed an Innovator 10 on a Windows Server 2008R2 and encounter major problems to get the Internet Explorer on my client computer to work. I get the following error message for Internet Explorer 10.0.9200.16844 on Windows 7:

The browser has failed the minimum browser requirement check. Please contact your system administrator to confirm your client against the platform requirements.

Locally on the server with IE 10.0.9200.16866 it works without any problems. I have made the same internet option settings on both machines. The Firefox works on both machines.

In the troubleshooting part of the IE settings document I could not find any hints to this error message. 

Any hints are appreciated.

Attaching Most Recent Version of a File

We currently have a method that attaches a copy of a file to an Item when a new instance is created.  The method is assigned to a server event in the Item's default workflow and locates the copy by using a hard-copied ID.  I am trying to create a method that functions similarly, but always copy the most recent version of a file instead of a static version.  I am working on a test item and test workflow and have encountered some issues with which I could use some help.

The code below is the same as the method that is currently in place.  However, I'm getting different results.  Here's the code in question:

Innovator inn = this.getInnovator();

/**** Find the Workflow Process Activity associated with this Activity ****/
Item myWorkFlowAct = inn.newItem("Workflow Process Activity","get");
myWorkFlowAct.setProperty("related_id", this.getID());
myWorkFlowAct.setAttribute("select", "source_id,source_type"); myWorkFlowAct = myWorkFlowAct.apply();

// test the result
if (myWorkFlowAct.isCollection())
   return inn.newError("myWorkFlowAct is not a single item.");
else if (myWorkFlowAct.isError())
   return inn.newError("myWorkFlowAct is an error.");

/**** Find the Workflow associated with this Workflow Process Activity ****/
Item myWorkFlow = inn.newItem("Workflow","get");
myWorkFlow.setProperty("related_id", myWorkFlowAct.getProperty("source_id"));
myWorkFlow.setAttribute("select","source_id,source_type");
myWorkFlow.apply();

The problem I'm having is that after calling "myWorkFlowAct = myWorkFlowAct.apply();", the related_id field is empty.  My testing shows that the field isn't empty before that method call, so I'm confused at to why it's empty after it.  This same code works just fine in the other method, which further adds to my confusion.

Can anyone shed some light on this issue? 


How best to initiate a method during a lifecycle transition for which an Aras method is already defined

Greetings!

I am trying to figure out how to define a Pre server method that will be initiated as any change ItemType (ECN, Simple ECO, Express ECO) is promoted to Released. The current lifecycle maps for each of these ItemTypes already has "PE_ChangeItemTransition" method defined for this state transition, and there does not seem to be a way to extend this list beyond one method. The method I am writing will export the given change to ERP. If successful, I would want the state transition to complete, whereas if the export to ERP fails for some reason, I would want the state transition to fail.

The issue I have is not being able to extend the list of methods executed as the change is being promoted to Released. If this list can be extended, I also would like to specify the order by which the methods at that state transition are executed.

I would think this feature of multiple methods being executed at any state transition for any ItemType would be applicable for any number of reasons, and hence, should be considered as a global Aras feature.

Export / Import Entire Project Template Items in Aras Innovator 9.3

Hello,

I want to Export and Import the Project Templates. Currently I am using the ARAS Innovator version 9.3.

I have downloaded & imported the ProjectTemplateMgmtTools.zip. After importing this tool, I could see the "Export Project Template" and "Import Project Template" under the Actions menu.

Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.

I tried Export Project Template. It has exported successfully and produced one .xml file.

Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.

Then I tried import Project Template, I was getting the error message "The Method "Import Project Template" Failed".

Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.

As this ProjectTemplateMgmtTools.zip tool is for the version 8.2, 9.0 & 9.1, it is not working for the version 9.3 I guess.

Is there any new tool present to export & import the Project Template for 9.3 version of ARAS? Please help me anyone..

 Thanks in Advance

Method call from query string of notifications

Hi,

I'm sending mails using inbuilt notifications on workflow activities.

I need to include the workflow history report in the mail content.

I could fetch the history report by giving an explicit call to the method - workflow history report (or a similar custom method which will return the HTML report content in a string format), but not getting how I can give a method call from within the query string of notification.

Is it really possible to do it this way?

Thanks in advance.

Get items order by a date property

Hi,

I am using following query to get items, it gets all the items if I don't use 'order by'.

BLOCKED SCRIPT

var Items_ = inn.newItem("Formulas","get");
     Items_.setAttribute("where","[Formulas].state = 'Approved' order by [Formulas].approved_date desc ");
     var results = Items.apply();

This is not getting the items. How to use order by in the above query?

Thank you.

How to localize the Workflow History Report?

Hi,

I'm trying to do some development on Aras Innovator 10.0, and I got stuck on the Workflow History Report. I had installed the official Chinese language pack, but the Workflow History Report page is still in English. I want to translate this Report page, but I don't have any idea about how to do this. I have checked the Workflow Process History item under Administration/Reports and the Workflow History Report method, but I can only translate the page title up to now. 

Does any one has some idea about how to translate this page?

Thanks,

Will Wang


My method for auto part naming makes ECO Express not to work?

I have created a simple method (see below) that generates a part name based on selected values.
This works great when creating and updating a preliminary part as it runs on both "onBeforeAdd" and "OnBeforeUpdate".

However, the problem is that since it runs on OnBeforeUpdate, the ECO Express doesn't work when the ECO-lifecycle is pushed from "Plan Review" to " In Work". (Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object )
Probably because of the mastodon method "PE_ChangeItemTransition".
Perhaps the part somehow is updated by that method, and my method kicks off because of this (?)
 
My method is intended/needed to run only when manually creating or modifying a preliminary part.

Any suggestions on how to solve this issue?
I find it strange if I need to fix this in the method "PE_ChangeItemTransition".

(C# Server side "onBeforeAdd" and "OnBeforeUpdate".)
_________________________________________________________________________________________


var Value1 = this.getProperty("classification");
  
// Check if Screw and add name from selected properties
if (Value1.Contains("Screws"))
{
  string mat = this.getProperty("kol_screw_mec_material");
  string surf = this.getProperty("kol_screw_surface_treatment");
  string thread = this.getProperty("kol_screw_thread_type");
  string length = this.getProperty("kol_screw_length");
  string type = this.getProperty("kol_screw_type");
  string concatVal = "Screw " + type + " " + thread + "x" + length + " " + mat + " " + surf;
  this.setProperty("name",concatVal);
}
  
return this;

neo to ARAS

hello Aras Team

few clarification...

1. Is ARAS (fully) open-source . I read few comments in internet and beyondplm sites, but still missing the clarity

2. Does ARAS supports OSLC or RESTApi? or How to integrate another CM to ARAS?

Variants Project

Hello,

I am new to Aras and wanted to dabble with a downloadable extension to the OOTB Aras software. I downloaded Variants.zip Build 4.1. However, I did not find instructions so I followed the Aras Variants Managements.v2.1.doc instructions. I managed to find the AML Studio and the Package Import Export Utility that are mentioned and these are fine.

My problem begins on page 3 of the document with the instructions "The contents of the file named "Variant-Tractor-DataSet.aml" and "Variant-Seat-DataSet.aml" can be loaded into your Aras Innovator instance using NASH.

My problem is that the files don't seem to be part of the Variant.zip download.

There is a blog post "How to download the projcets?" that asks the same question but I do not see a reply.

I'm assuming it is these files that put some of the sample data shown in the examples into the database... is this correct? Can anyone direct me further so that I can better follow the examples in the instruction document?

Thanks and apologies from a "newbie".

 

Get File Properties of ItemType

Hi there,

I am trying to get the names of file properties on a specific ItemType. The FileTestType1 has two properties (_attachement_1, attachement_2) with data_type = Item and data_source = File. I wrote this external C#-method:

List<String> results = new List<String>();

String itemType = "FileTestType1";

Item itm = inn.newItem("ItemType", "get");

itm.setProperty("name", itemType);

itm = itm.apply();

itm.fetchRelationships("Property");

Item relationships = itm.getRelationships("Property");

int count = relationships.getItemCount();

for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {

Item prop = relationships.getItemByIndex(i);

if (prop.getProperty("data_type") == "Item" && prop.getPropertyItem("data_source").getProperty("name") == "File"){

results.Add(prop.getProperty("name"));

}

}

Unfortunately the results-List stays empty. When I debug the thing it looks like the prop-Item is assigned the sourceItem instead of the RelationshipItem, so there are no data_type or data_source properties on it.

getRelatedItem won't do since the "Property" Relation of "ItemType" is a NoRelated, data_type and data_source hence stickng directly on the Relationship-ItemType.

What is the correct way to get to access the Property-Relationship-Items or is there another way to get to an ItemType's properties' metadata?

Best regards, Sebastian
