Why do TOC Editor created menu items not show up in in the TOC after packaging and Import
Hello Community, I've just tried to Package a staging table environment that includes TOC Menu elements created in the TOC Editor. The Import did not result in the rendering of the added TOC Menu Items in the TOC Menu or TOC Editor. I would appreciate any help or in site I can get to learn what I have done wrong or left out. The process I went through is described below. Note: I did go through the Docs but the process to even add the [Presentation Configuration] is incorrect and does not tell what to check for in the export. So this conversation will help that. www.aras.com/.../Importing and Exporting.htm --- Process -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I created a Package for the configured Items, Forms, Relationships, etc. All of these Exported and Imported correctly. I added the TOC Category (CommandBarMenu) and Itemtype (CommandBarMenuButton) to the Package using the Package Button. Doing this added the following Package Groups to the package: Menu, Menu Button, Command Bar Section Next: 1) I navigated to one of the configured ItemType's, [Client Style] tab 2) Double clicked on on the [Presentation Configuration] in the Grid; "rh_Oracle_Mfg_Item_TOC_Configuration" 3) Clicked [Search Presentation Configurations] 4) Searched for the required [Presentation Configurations], 5) Selected all Required 6) added then to the Package via the right Click [Admin] menu. Doing this added the following Package Group to the package: Presentation Configuration 7) I did the Export and all packaged elements were represented in the manifest and import folders 8) I did the Import into the new staging DB instance. [View:/community/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/3/2024_2D00_1_2D00_30.12_2D00_57.log:320:240] 9) In the new Instance I a) Opened the TOC and nothing. I opened the TOC Editor and nothing b) I checked the SQL Server tables to see if all the elements, defined in the XML files, had been loaded. All Elements had been loaded into the tables: - PRESENTATIONCONFIGURATION - COMMANDBARMENU - COMMANDBARBUTTON - COMMANDBARMENUBUTTON c) I checked the Itemtypes to see if the [Presentation Configuration] were set on the [Client Style] TAB. And they were: d) Lastly, tried clearing the IIS cache and the Browser cache No Luck Thanks for the help and/or in site.
Preventing an AML package from loading with new build
Hi, I am using an automated process for loading new builds. I am attempting to disable a component via its package definition - my first thought was to disable the package in the imports.mf file. I commented out the package and the build was able to load successfully, but the component (and all of its associated itemtypes, TOC presence, etc) were still present. As far as I can tell, I need to do more than just comment out the packages in the imports.mf file... or do I?export for existing items
hello, i have been diving into packaging and exports lately but there is something i can't figure out. it might seem easy but it's not said clearly anywhere i looked. So, let say i customize an already existing item like Parts, i had actions, modify the forms and i want to export my work the next step i need to follow are: 1)since itemType Part is in package "com.aras.innovator.solution.PLM" i had to this package the actions, methods, forms and all items that i could have added to the part item types. 2)then using the aras export tool i can either export the whole package or only the things i just added to the package. please tell me if i'm right wrong or if i'm lacking some part. thanks, lucas
Creating export packages "PackageElement... Already exists"
I'm creating a demo environment and want to export the new Part definitions and Forms that I have created. When I try to add Part or Form to my new package, I get Unable to add item Form PackageElement (PackageElement) with Element Id '47573682FB7549F59ADECD4BFE04F1DE' already exists. Both part and form already exist in com.aras.innovator.solution.PLM, which I would have expected to use in the "Depends on" section. I can use this PLM package and remove all the other item types and then export, but it would be more convenient to just use my custom package. This seems to be possible as seen in the packages for the aras training here. This includes what I want and more: How do I achieve this? Follow-on question: is it possible to filter what is exported? For example to only export members a certain part classification? Thank you!
12sp05 packaging error on a simple item with ITPresentationConfiguration
Hi, I get a message I never saw while creating a package. I thougth it was due to a missing element but I reproduce it only by - 1 creating a simple object - add the TOC access (and permission/creation) - add it to a new package (1 form+ 1 item) - Then export it - and try to import it to a brand new db from the 12sp innovator backup db... I get that message : DELAYED RESOLUTION: applying AML <Item type='ItemType' id='D9D992E995EC41BB8B6B852510384D05' action='edit' doGetItem='0' version='0'><Relationships><Item type="ITPresentationConfiguration" id="9807CFE5BF3BD9466B77D6069BFA2DFF" action="add"><client>js</client><related_id keyed_name="tr_i001_project_TOC_Configuration" type="PresentationConfiguration">9807CFE5BF3BD94636326AA7318BB90D</related_id><sort_order>128</sort_order><source_id keyed_name="tr_i001_project" type="ItemType" name="tr_i001_project">D9D992E995EC41BB8B6B852510384D05</source_id></Item></Relationships></Item> In the exported package I have this lines I never saw before <Relationships> <Item type="ITPresentationConfiguration" id="7ACFCDADA1BD72956B77D6069BFA2DFF" action="add"> <client>js</client> <related_id keyed_name="tr_i001_projet_TOC_Configuration" type="PresentationConfiguration">7ACFCDADA1BD729536326AA7318BB90D</related_id> <sort_order>128</sort_order> <source_id keyed_name="tr_i001_project" type="ItemType" name="tr_i001_project">2E959A23C5D640B79FA45579D827BDEC</source_id> </Item> With 11spX I never get that issue. Thanks for your help, for the moment the support only tell me I might miss some element in the package... Since I reproduce the bug with only 1 items and the corresponding form I am a little bit confuse...
Export/Import custom created menu buttons
Hello, I'm trying to experiment a bit with the import/export tool of the Aras and I'm having a problem with custom menu items. As the custom menu buttons were created inside the Administration/Configuration/Client Presentation/Javascript - Global, they're located by default inside the com.aras.innovator.cui_default package. After I effectuate the export process for this, which executes without any warning/error message and after I'm doing the import to a different Aras Innovator, the main menu (w File, Edit, Views, etc.) is hidden and my custom buttons are not appearing inside the Javascript - Global. The import/export is working well for other items/methods. Can you suggest me a solution for this problem, please? Thank you! ChrisBackup only the newly added customization part
Hello, Is there any way to backup & restore only the customization part realized inside the Aras Innovator 11? I managed to realize a full database backup & restore on my Aras system, but this way all the test data, which were added during the customization process are backed up and moved to the new environment and I would like to avoid that. Thanks! Chris
