Thursday, June 24, 2010 New Standard Function Modules for PI Sheets / EWIs
VN:F [1.9.22_1171]
Rating: 4.8/5 (6 votes cast)

A new OSS note (1453716) is available which includes a lot of new standard function modules you can use in your implementation.

It contains some of the function modules I have used for my weighing demo scenario (check phase predecessor status and user qualification). In the last session I was also asked about the function module which allows the creation of a new XStep tree in an order (e.g. from within the PI Sheet to create some rework instructions). This is also the place where you can find it 🙂

New Function Modules

    Hi,
    it would be very interesting to see an example of the listed function CMX_TOOLS_FM_SET_INDEX_FOR_TAB. Because I have problems to use it, altough the OSS-note is implemented.
    Thanks a lot
    H.W.

    Hi,
    it would be very interesting to see practical examples of the listed functions – e.g.
    can you show an example of the CMX_TOOLS_FM_CREATE_XS_TREE function module?
    Thanks a lot
    Peter
