HierarchicalSerialEntry Action Parameters

Example

HierarchicalSerialEntry supports the following additional input arguments:

hierarchyRootId

The root record of the hierarchy. Specify the Item No. (AR:0) of the root item of the product hierarchy you want to display.

Alternatively you can specify a generic root record. For further details, see hierarchyRootUid.

hierarchyInfoAreaId

The info area of the hierarchy. Currently only AR is supported.

You must specify hierarchyInfoAreaId if you use hierarchyRootId.

hierarchyRootUid

You can specify the uid of the root of the hierarchy instead of hierarchyRootId plus hierarchInfoAreaId: Record or Linked.

Use hierarchyRootUid to implement one HierarchicalSerialEntry for multiple item structures e.g. in a process.

hierarchyNodeFilter

Allows you to filter the tree view. The filter must be defined for the same info area as determined by hierarchyInfoAreaId or hierarchyRootUid.

Example

Filtering the item tree and list for the above example using the Item Structure flag (AR:52). Precondition: The Item Structure flag is set for all AR records that are parent nodes and disabled for AR records representing actual items.

The tree displays only parent nodes, the list displays the actual items for the currently selected node.

hierarchyNodeSortFields

llows you to specify the sort order for the item master tree. By default, the items in the tree are sorted by serial number (AR-SerNo).

Specify one or more fields (<field name or number>) from AR. Separate multiple fields by comma. Prefix a field with "-" (or "+") to define descending/ascending sorting.

Default: ascending.

Example: hierarchyNodeSortFields = ItemName,-ItemNo

If a field specified here does not exist in the data model, an error message is written to the client log.

hierarchyRelationFilter

Allows you to filter the tree view by criteria defined on IS.

hierarchyIndex

You can define up to 10 different item structures via Z5 variables (CORE::INDIRECT-IS-LINK-TREE-0 to 9). Use the hierarchyIndex parameter to specify which item structure should be read and displayed. If more than one structure is found and hierarchyIndex is undefined, a message is displayed and the item structure with index 0 is used.
