Change 'Save As' to use part number sequence instead of adding Copy Of in the part number field?

With Aras V11, SP15: For the Part Item type, we have a pattern setup that we want all parts to follow this pattern: PRT-##### and we want it restricted to this length (9). This works.  However, w...

    Hi m2sawyer

    Use below steps to update part number. (Input is Sequence Name used to generate part part number. I used Simple ECO sequence number for reference. Update and verify)

    Step 1: Create new server method and copy below code

    Step 2: Open Part Item type and add this method under server events (Event : On After Copy)

    Step 3: Save and Unlock the Item type

    Innovator inn = this.getInnovator();
    Aras.Server.Security.Identity plmIdentity = Aras.Server.Security.Identity.GetByName("Aras PLM");
    bool PermissionWasSet = Aras.Server.Security.Permissions.GrantIdentity(plmIdentity);
    try
    {
    string sequence = "Simple ECO";  
    Item newPartItem = inn.newItem(this.getType(), "edit");
    newPartItem.setID(this.getID());
    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(sequence))
    {
    string newNumber = inn.getNextSequence(sequence);
    newPartItem.setProperty("item_number", newNumber);
    newPartItem = newPartItem.apply();
    }
    }
    finally
    {
    if (PermissionWasSet) Aras.Server.Security.Permissions.RevokeIdentity(plmIdentity);
    }
    return this;

     

    Thank You

Ok, I tried adding this method (cavi_part_SaveAs).  When I did a check syntax, it complained about "Missing ";" before statementon line  1" and on lines 2,3,6,7 and 11.

Is there a formatting issue or something I need to add first?  Note, I'm using Aras V11 SP15.

When I try to use the method as is I get the error:

-<SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
-<SOAP-ENV:Body>
-<SOAP-ENV:Fault>
 <faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Server</faultcode>
 <faultstring>The method type (JavaScript) specified for cavi_part_SaveAs is not currently supported.</faultstring>
-<detail>
 <af:legacy_detail>The method type (JavaScript) specified for cavi_part_SaveAs is not currently supported.</af:legacy_detail>
 </detail>
 </SOAP-ENV:Fault>
 </SOAP-ENV:Body>
 </SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
Thanks for the help.

    Method type should be C# method
