Orders

Maintain settings about Orders in BlueWorx.

Field Settings

The following field settings are available. Note that some fields are only exposed on selection of related switches.

Field	Description/ Usage	Recommendation
Order Globals
Remove TECO Orders [Display ONLY]	Orders with SAP Status of TECO will not go to BlueWorx. Always ON, shown so that Administrators can see its influence but setting can not be changed
Remove CNF Orders	Orders with SAP status of CNF (confirmed) will not go to BlueWorx when set ON.
Remove BlueWorx Complete	Orders marked as Complete by a User in BlueWorx will not go to BlueWorx on next Sync when set ON.	ON
Enable Standard Text	When set on, all SAP Standard Text of Type CA10 will be made availalbe for use: Use in new Orders and added Operations to select the Text key (for use with Inspection determination) - where the long text will be populated on Sync with SAP; Directly in the Long Text for an Orders, Operations and Notifications (in various long text areas) - where the long text will be populated immediately (and can be adjusted prior to sync). Functionality added in SP13.	Switch on if you maintain SAP Long Texts in SAP
Order Years Back	Prior to SP11 when determining the Orders for the user as the basis for our search, we used a range from 2000-01-01 to 9999-12-31. This parameter has been created to limit this range to 'x' years back rather than 2000-01-01.	The parameter should be a number of years back that we should search for Order Start dates from (with a default value of 2).
Order Sync
Order User Assignment	In conjunction with a User assigned profiles this setting controls which Orders are transferred to BlueWorx when syncing with SAP. Options are: 0 - No Filter All WO for the Users Maintenance Plants will come to the device. Not recommended for production 1 - SAP Standard WO header person responsible for user (HR) 2 - SAP Standard WO Header Work Centre to HR assignment to user 3 - SAP Standard WO Operation Work Centre to HR assignment to user 4 - BlueWorx WO Header Work Centre assignment associated to the user in the BlueWorx application - see Maintain Users - Work Centres for details 5 - BlueWorx WO Operation Work Centre assignment associated to the user in the BlueWorx application - see Maintain Users - Work Centres for details 6 - BlueWorx Client specific code which must be written. 7 - SAP Personnel Assigned at Order Operation. Note that this works for User Assignment in the Operation Detail > Internal Tab > Person field and in the Operation Detail > Reqmnts Assignment Tab > Person field	IMPORTANT - In non Hana DB system, if you are using Options 1 or 7, involving Personnel Numbers, then we strongly recommend creating a new index on the SAP standard table AFVC against fields MANDT, PERNR. This will greatly assist in speeding up the Sync process for systems with a large number of Orders. It will also improve SAP standard reports using this criteria.
Take Confirmation History Offline	The confirmation history for Orders will be taken offline on Sync when set ON. Notes: This will download all Confirmation History and not just confirmation for the current use As per standard SAP this history will not include CATS entries not yet posted to Orders - as per standard SAP
Order Completion
Allow Incomplete Inspections	Controls whether Orders can be complete with incomplete mandatory Inspections: ON Users can Complete such Orders with a warning. OFF - Users can't complete such Orders	Strong recommendation to set OFF.
Allow Incomplete GEO Actions	Controls whether Orders can be complete with incomplete Map Actions Inspections: ON User can complete such Orders Off then can not complete such Orders
TECHO Order on Completion	Controls whether Technical Completion of the Order is set in SAP when the Order is set to a status configured as 'Complete': ON - TECHO Order on Complete OFF - Don't TECHO Order on Complete
Notification Complete on TECO	If set ON this will complete the Notification when the Order is set to TECHO.	IMPORTANT - Refer to the following for discussion on this function in older SAP releases: 11 - SAP Notes
Cross Application Timesheets (CATS)
Cross App Timesheet	Controls use of CATS or standard SAP Order Confirmations: ON then CATS entries will be created in SAP OFF then standard WO confirmations will be used Note: As an organization, you still have to use transaction CAT9 to post from the CATS entry to the PM order. If you are already using CATS then this process should already be in use.
Default Profile	Used in conjunction with setting above where CATS is activated. Sets the CATS profile used for all CATS entries.
Activity Type From Operation	When CATS is enabled you can choose whether the activity type is the planned activity type from the operation, or the activity type from the user's HR record.	ON is set existing implementations on upgrade to BlueWorx version 14.0.0.

Default Header WC from PID	Controls the default Work Centre for Orders created: ON - The Order Header Work Centre will be set to the Users PID value (where maintained) OFF - The Order Header Work centre will default from the header reference object (Equipment or FL where o Equipment) The SAP User PID values referenced are VAP (Work Centre) and WRK (Plant). Both must be maintained.
Default Operation WC from PID	As per explanation above, but for the Order Operation Work Centre. The SAP User PID values referenced are AGR and WRK (Plant). Both must be maintained.
Measurement Documents

Multiple creation using PRT	Controls whether multiple Measurement Documents for a PRT Measurement Point can be created for an Order Operation (where technically supported by SAP release and functionality activation). Set ON to allow.
