RE: Editing info in IM when using EPDM

Bill,
We had a prior problem where the update to the Item Revision was occurring
correctly but the update to the Item master did not complete due to an
invalid value in the Item Master (I think it was our buyer field).  The
status report in browser showed that the update failed but because our Item
Master had bad data it would not allow the updates to go through regardless
of the changes made to Item Revision.  I ended up writing a synch program to
get things back in synch since ours was a wide spread issue.

If you have released your EPDM changes to PDM, I would walk a change through
and check the status report to be sure the change completed correctly.

Subject: Editing info in IM when using EPDM


Hello all,

Been lurking the list for awhile and learned a lot but actually have a
question to ask now.

All my experience has been with green screen MAPICS and no EPDM or Browser.
I am now at a company that uses EPDM and Browser and it's a bit confusing to
this old dog.

We have Standard costs that are showing up in the Item Master that we don't
want there. The costs we want are in Item Revision but all Browser drill
downs are getting info from Item Master.

If we try to edit them using IM it says "E AM-4966 Use EPDM functions to
perform maintenance" when we go to EPDM all that is available is offline
load features. In Browser it says this information is not maintainable.

Question is how do we maintain this information? Any ideas, suggestions,
and/or good jokes would be appreciated.
