Hello.
We have been using the BPCS Cimpath system for quite some time now to
collect shop floor labor. When a user scans a shop order/operation, the
bar code reader has been very slow in processing the users request and move
on to the next question or prompt. We have heard that the previous IT
manager did something on the PC, maybe clear some data from a folder/file.
Would anyone have any idea on this?
Does this folder/file sound familiar? USR/TRANS/TDCTRANS????
The PC that is running CimPath is using Client Access for DOS.
The BPCS part of the equation will read from a member in the NIN file in
your BPCS file library.
What you need to do is establish the train of events that populates that
member.
A typical train of events is.
Scanner reads barcode and writes data to a PC file, this could be anything
from a txt or prn file to an SQL database file.
A process is triggered on your PC which reads this file and transfers it to
your AS/400, the data will be written to a workfile or maybe a DATAQ.
An As/400 process will be triggered which will validate the data, add
anything else that CIM needs and write the NIN member record.
From the sound of things there would seem to be a glitch with either step
one or two. Could be a full log or transaction file, or maybe a disk or
memory space problem.
