Re: Create ITEMBL records from one whse to another

Peter, 

Thank you for the kind words!   And I have gotten a great deal of help off this 
thread myself - it's a very good resource.  


You have excellent reasons - at FFT I also bypassed many of the off-line load 
processes due mostly to file lockouts and conflicts (as Pete O. just said, it 
doesn't need dedicated mode anymore, but it DOES require more lockouts than are 
actually needed for what you are doing).  I usually only used the offline load 
process for customer orders, product structures, and routings.  Those are too 
integrated to trust myself to remember everything I needed to test.

And the documentation is a definite reason - I'm assuming you are bound by the 
ever-delightful requirements of SARBOX? 


The only caveat I have for you is to make sure you get ALL those extra fields 
zeroed.  I've been burned on that a couple times when I miss one.

 Dale (Cork) Gindlesperger, CPIM

Dale:

By the way, I really admire certain people in this because of the 
professionalism and willingness to help the user community and you are one 
of them, I just have to say THANK YOU because of that (and before I 
forget)...

I am considering the offline process but is not in the top of my list 
because 2 main reasons:

a) I need a dedicated system. 
b) Documentation.  Our local requirements to document our data update 
processes are so tedious and draining that I try to keep processes as 
simple as I can so I can comply with the documentation and at the same 
time, keeping a simple process.

However, if there is no other way, yes: I have already considered offline 
as a potential solution.  I was looking for additional options that may 
take me there.

Thank you Dale!
