Re: Integrator question

   You can do this. First turn on "custom default" for the key/attribute.
   Then in the default buffer you will get a place to put your own logic.
   Also on the Action tab over the attribute turn on the "tool bar" button so
   you get a little button to generate a key manually (request one).

   Now in the default buffer user exit you can perform your logic to assign
   the key.

   An alternate thing to try is to create a logical attribute that would be
   the generated RMA# using a constant and then concatenated part of the
   complaint.  Then in the template to create RMA you could use "default from
   related" object and it would then populate based on fact you have
   relationship from complaint to the RMA database.

   Hope this makes sense. But your request is not uncommon (to be able to
   generate a variable key based on business rules)

     Subject: [MAPICS-L] Integrator question

     Hello All.

     Currently we are at R7.8 , with Enterprise Integrator.

     I been working on a little integrator project of building a QA database
     for our Quality department.

     I want to create a RMA number from the Customer Complaint number.

     Example the Customer Complaint is in the form of CCXXXX and we would
     like the

     RMA number to be in the form of RMAXXX. Where XXXX is the same value for
     the Customer Complaint and

     the RMA number. I can have the system generate the Customer Complaint
     number no problem.

     But I am a little struck on the getting the RMA to generate from the
     Customer Complaint number.

     Ideally we would like a little button by the RMA field that would
     generate the RMA number. Since not all

     Customer Complaints will have RMA number.

     Any suggestions?

     Thanks

     Weston Wheat.
