An OMI import job is defined by entering a new record on B.40.01:

For online jobs, you can use the Upload button to pick an import file from your local file systems. For batch jobs, you can use the Default Dir button to select the default directory on the server that is appropriate for your project and login discipline. Use of this button requires that your Smart Materials application administrator has set up the necessary directory parameters on the A.60.04 and/or on A.20.12/13 screens. If you click the Upload button, a file selection dialog opens. Selecting a file will send the file to the application server. Specify the destination path in the BOM_UPLOAD_DEST DBA setting with a trailing backslash. It gets a new unique filename there, which is displayed in the Import Path and Import File fields. If you start a batch job, this file is downloaded to the database server if you set the BOM_IMPORT_GET_FILE DBA setting to Y. The file is requested at the virtual path you specify in the BOM_UPLOAD_URL DBA setting (hostname/path without a trailing slash) and written to the path defined in the BOM_IMPORT_PATH DBA setting.

In the Runtime Options section, select the Next Issue Status check box to let the import procedure automatically determine the issue status of the imported positions. When the Next Issue Status check box is selected,

  • The issue status specified in the Issue Status field will be ignored,

  • The issue status specified in the uploaded file will be ignored,

  • BOM positions are created with the next highest issue status available for the node into which these positions are being imported.

The issue statuses having the usage defined as ‘Not Selectable and Exclude Best QTY’ on the B.10.08 Issue Status screen are not considered when determining the next highest issue status.

In the Runtime Options section, select the Lock BOM check box to automatically lock nodes, node values, positions, and position values during the BOM import.

Select the Check Consistency check box to execute the M_PCK_OMI_CUSTOM.CHECK_CONSISTENCY CIP. This CIP covers some additional checks on the import data which are not done from other OMI processing. For the details have a look into the above mentioned CIP. Please note that only advanced users should make use of this option. If you are not sure if you need these additional checks, run the import jobs without selecting this option.
