Work parameters are related to work orders, budgets, and project management features that must be set for the features of the application to work properly.

Work parameters are related to work orders, budgets, and project management features that must be set for the features of the application to work properly.

Set values for work parameters according to the following table.

Code Description Fixed
@WOPTDET Whether to export work order part with more details in outbound MaintenanceOrder BOD. If set to Y, the BOD will detail items allocated for a work order by store and if the parts are planned, reserved, or direct purchase. If set to N, the BOD will summarize the parts for the work order. No
7ISCDKEY Infor EAM Caller Login for Service Requests CD key. No
AUTODMEC This code determines whether the Remove Equipment hyperlink on the Equipment page of the Work Orders form breaks the association between the parent work order and a multiple equipment child work order or whether the system also deletes the multiple equipment child work order.

Valid values are Y or N. By default the parameter is set to Y, which means that the system deletes the related multiple equipment child records.

AUTOPMCL This code indicates whether to automatically close all released minor PMs at release of the major PMs (YES/NO). No
BOOKDATE Indicates whether to enforce date constraints when booking hours. If set to OFF, the system ignores the constraints. If set to ON, the system enforces the constraints.
Note: Setting this parameter OFF may result in inconsistencies within your booked hours data.

Setting BOOKDATE to OFF enables you to book labor hours for a date that is earlier than Date reported. By enabling you to book the hours without any date restrictions based on the Date reported field, you can leave the value for Date reported as is and still book hours for work that has already been completed.

No
BOOPLAN Booking hours. Valid values are ON and OFF. When booking hours, if the value is ON, the system gets the trade rate from the activity on which hours are booked. If the value is OFF, the system gets the rate from the employee table. Changing this value will not affect existing data. If you change this parameter and open work orders exist on which hours have already been booked, inconsistencies will arise. Close work orders before changing BOOPLAN. No
CALSTD Determines if calibration standards that have overdue PM work orders can be used to perform a calibration.

If CALSTD is set to YES, equipment with overdue PM work orders are available for selection as a calibration standard.

If CALSTD is set to NO, equipment with overdue PM work orders are not available for selection as a calibration standard.

No
CASCLOC Cascade equipment Location changes to PM equipment records. If set to YES cascade changes. If set to NO, do not cascade changes. No

PMNEST Indicates whether to enable the following PM nesting enhancements. Valid values are YES or NO.
  • If YES is selected:
    1. The system adjusts the due date forward for nested, more frequent work orders with a status of Awaiting release or Bypassed whenever a work order is Completed.
    2. The system adjusts the due date forward for more frequent PM work orders when attempting to release the work order if it is nested with a Completed less frequent work order.
  • If NO is selected:
    1. The system adjusts the due date forward for nested, more frequent work orders with a status of Bypassed whenever a work order is completed.
    2. The system changes the status of more frequent PM work orders to Released when attempting to release the work order and it is nested with a Completed less frequent work order.
No
PMCRPAST This code indicates whether the system can generate new fixed PM or duplicate PM work orders with a due date in the past. Valid values are YES and NO. The default setting is NO.

If the value is set to YES, the system creates the next PM work order with a due date that reflects the calculated work order due date and the PM frequency, even if the next due date is in the past. If the value is NO, the system always creates the PM work order with a future due date.
