RE: Item Revision single transaction interface

Thanks for all the help. I will try to talk the users out of it. If that does 
not work I will propably go with a similar method to what Dale is doing for now.

Chris,

We've had to do what you are describing, and we wrote a nightly
synchronization program that runs every 3rd shift.  We have two sites, and
we have problems with users not changing all the relavent records.  We have
some required slightly different fields between sites, and we handle that
programmagically.  Am I happy we had to do that?  No.  Did I do it anyway?
Yes.  The Browser is a very efficient tool for this, and I think it's sad
that we have to write code to make sure people do their jobs correctly when
we give them a tool that powerful.  We actually had to write a green screen
program for our Purchasing department to allow fast cost changes (we recost
quarterly) rather than use the Browser.  I didn't like that either, but
sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

The situation is that the user wants any changes she makes to an item
revision record in one site to ripple across all sites for that item
revision record.

Does anyone know how to easily interface an add, change, or delete of a
single item revision record into EPDM? I am trying to create a real-time
interface so I don't think offline load will work.

Has anyone tried this?

Any assistance is appreciated.

Thanks
