Synchronizing features with equipment (ESRI)

Search for Infor EAM equipment records with no corresponding defined GIS features, view a list of discrepancies, and create corresponding features for the existing equipment records.

Note: ESRI’s ArcMap displays features as soon as the system creates them.

Open ArcMap to an existing map, and then click Infor EAM Synchronize Attributes.
Click the GIS tab.
Specify this information:

Layer

Select the layer for which to view equipment records without corresponding features.
Select the Consider only equipment with a GISOBJID check box to only compare equipment records that reference a GISOBJID number. The GISOBJID number is referenced on the Infor EAM equipment record in the GIS ID field.

Note: If you clear the Consider only equipment with a GISOBJID check box, equipment records that do not have a GIS ID but do reference a GIS Profile or GIS layer are compared.
Click View Discrepancies. Layer, Location X, and Location Y for each equipment record are automatically populated if available.

Note: Only equipment records for which you have query web service permissions are displayed. Contact your system administrator for more information.
Select the equipment records for which you want to create corresponding features.
All of the equipment records are automatically selected. Remove individual records from the list by clearing the check box.
Specify this information:

Layer

Select a layer for each equipment record for which you want to create corresponding features.

Location X

Location Y

Enter the X and Y coordinates for each equipment record for which you want to create corresponding features.
Note: Highlight the equipment record within the list, click Record, and then click the location on the map within ESRI’s ArcMap page on which to place the feature. The X and Y coordinates are determined and Location X and Location Y are automatically populated.
If the selected layer contains line or polygon features, click on the map more than once to include all necessary coordinates for the feature. The additional X and Y coordinates are saved.

If you enter Location X and Location Y with the Record button and then need to edit the fields with the Record button, you must first right-click on the equipment record, and then select Clear Map Coordinates.
Click Create Feature(s). Corresponding features within ESRI’s GIS are created for each selected equipment record and the newly created features are highlighted on the map. Result and Creation Date/Time are populated, and all equipment records are unselected for which corresponding features were created.

Note: If the system cannot create a corresponding feature for a selected equipment record, the reason is displayed in Result. The equipment record remains selected.
