How do you import Excel BOM data into Aras Innovator open version?
Hello, I currently use the open, free version of Aras Innovator and am having difficulty figuring out how to store BOM data within the tool. I have seen from other posts that subscribers have access to a direct import functionality and also some kind of batch loader. For the latest free version of ARAS, what are the exact steps to import an excel file containing BOM data into Aras? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Item.apply overwriting action, has it always done this?
After upgrading from version 12 to 31, we started getting an error when saving a certain custom datastructure, developed for us by Minerva back in the day: Failed to execute 'serializeToString' on 'XMLSerializer': parameter 1 is not of type 'Node'. From what I can tell, this happens because Minerva's old code calls an action directly on the document.thisItem object var output = document.thisItem.apply("VE_GetCopyTreeGridHeader"); which "pollutes" document.thisItem with that action. When later hitting save, it calls this function instead of doing whatever it ordinarily would (probably a get action), resulting in the error. I observe that if I change the action to "get", it gets rid of the error message and saves any changes in the object itself, but not in a related items treegrid associated with it. If I change the Iaction to "update", it saves everything correctly the way it used to do in version 12. I see that the docs on item apply says that it overwrites the action, but if it always did that, how did this code ever work? (By the way, that .apply() overwrites the action is an error-prone side effect which I can't see any good reason for)Need help with AML query to connect two independent ItemTypes via referencing item
Hi community, I am working on an AML query but cannot find a proper solution. It contains a lot of custom ItemTypes, but technically the query would work similar like this: START--------> Part ---------------------> Part BOM --------------------------> Part <------------- MyCustomItemType (part_id) <-------- GOAL is to get properties of this referencing item We start from Part and go downwards to get the complete BOM. Easy. Now I have a second independent ItemType "MyCustomItemType" that also uses Part inside an item property. I want to include this custom ItemType to the query to fetch some additional data. In my case the end result shall combine BOM information with warehouse specific data. Problem: "MyCustomItemType" is not included in the "natural downward path" of Parts. And I want to avoid to include it at all costs. The data is federated and shall only be fetched on demand. So we have only a true reference from "MyCustomItemType" to Part, but no real reference form "Part" to "MyCustomItemType". Question: How can I get the data of MyCustomItemType when we start from the top part? Is this possible at all? Interesting detail: When we use a Query Definition these kind of "inverted" queries would be possible by "using referencing item". Is something similar possible with plain AML? Thanks for any hint!

What is the correct syntax of writing "where" statement in AML with C#
I need to write just write one line of AML wrapped in C# and store the ID of the item in a variable code: Innovator inn = this.getInnovator(); string amlString= @"<AML><Item type='Document' action='get' where='item_number='MADL002828'' select='Document.id'/></AML>"; Item results = inn.applyAML(amlString); return results; Everything works except for the "where" clause in it. Just can' figure out the what kind of quotation marks does this require. Thanks!How to find ECR, ECO, EDR associated with PR using API GET call?
Hi, I need the data for all the PRs and ECR, ECO, EDR etc associated with the PR. By associated I mean the ones that show in the "where used" section of PR and not the relationships. In other words, what is the "where used' equivalent in a GET call? I then need the properties of the Affected Items under each ECR, ECO, EDR. I can get the properties of the relationshipships. GET call in Postman: https://nmg.dev.aras-cloud.com/staging/server/odata/PR?$expand=NMG_PR_AffectedItem This only gets the Affected Items under PR, I can get other relationships and their properties but the issue is there isn't a relationship between PR and ECR under PR item type
Upload missing document relationship in Process Plan. "Add" statement doesn't work
I need to upload relationship between Operation Document and the Documents. As you can see from the picture below the hierarchy of Process Plan is: Process Plan--> Operation Number (which is `sort_order`, in this case it is 20)-->Document I have an excel sheet of the missing documents that need to show under an operation (20) The document relationship cannot by uploaded just to Operation because the operation 20 will exist under other Process Plans. However, under one process plan the operation number is unique, so in this case there will be only one operation with sort_order 20. The documents already exist, I just need them to be shown here. From the AML script I have the `get` command works. The code is below. <AML> <Item type="mpp_processPlan" action="get"> <item_number>080824-S10</item_number> <Relationships> <Item type="mpp_Operation" action="get"> <sort_order>20</sort_order> <Relationships> <Item type="mpp_operationDocument" action="get"> </Item> </Relationships> </Item> </Relationships> </Item> </AML> However, in the above script in the line `<Item type="mpp_operationDocument" action="get">` when `action = Update` it won't work. Basically the following doesn't work <AML> <Item type="mpp_processPlan" action="get"> <item_number>080824-S10</item_number> <Relationships> <Item type="mpp_Operation" action="get"> <sort_order>20</sort_order> <Relationships> <Item type="mpp_operationDocument" action="Update"> <item_number>MADL074161</item_number> </Item> </Relationships> </Item> </Relationships> </Item> </AML> Result of scriopt with all `action=get`
