Ortems ​​​​​​​SolutionUpdate ​​​​​​​Business ​​​​​​​HowTo ​​​​​​​

Objective of this “Apply collaborative follow-up only when saving WIP” setting?

Traditionally, in Ortems, follow-up events were taken into account by saving WIP. That means the Planner user had to save WIP in order that the other users could see the impact of follow-up events in the plan after recalling WIP. This was a specific behavior for follow-up events. Other events as Fix Start Date of an operation for example did not need any save WIP: its impact was displayed in the plan after recall WIP for not Planner users (Collaborative users and Viewing users) or after applying collaborative events for Planner user.

By default the box is checked, meaning there is no modification for user installing a release supporting this feature.

Objective of the setting = being able to deactivate it to benefit of the same rule for all events: each one is processed by recalling WIP (any user), or by applying collaborative events (Planner user).

From which Release/Level of DELMIA Ortems is it available?

This setting is available since DELMIA Ortems version 8 release 8.2 Refresh 3 (Fix 1808).

How to obtain this behavior?

There is only one setting to modify. To switch it to the right value, just run the following update SQL command (using Vic IBU, tab “Update SQL” or using any other DB management tool):

update BUSINESS_CONFIG set PARAM_VALUE='0' where PARAM_ID='LEGACY_FOLLOWUP_EVENTS' ;

Launching Planning program after running this command, will show the box “Apply collaborative follow-up only when saving WIP” unchecked (in Options / Configuration > tab “Follow-up”):
