General Data Transfer Issues

The Main Information Types in Infor M3 SWB

Infor M3 SWB creates reliable production plans and schedules by using three main types of information:

• Order data
• Resource and calendar data
• Parameters

Order Data

An interface program can be used to transfer order data into an existing database in Infor M3 SWB. You can replace all of the existing data or you can add to it incrementally and modify it when the transfer is complete. You can conduct local order generation in Infor M3 SWB defining item, routing and BOM data, but the use of Infor M3 SWB is more beneficial when integrated with an ERP system.

This order data is used by Infor M3 SWB:

• Order header. Order headers contain general planning and scheduling information on each manufacturing order.
• Routing and operation data. This contains necessary planning and scheduling information on each operation in the manufacturing order.
• Material link and BOM. This contains information on the way in which orders are connected to one another in the network and information on external supplies or produced items that are used by each individual order.
• End item order. End item orders are a special data category mostly used during local order generation to copy or change complete order networks. End item orders are also used in follow-up procedures.

Orders transferred into Infor M3 SWB can be classified into three different order categories: released, firm planned and planned. If necessary, order data can be supplemented by data from other data registers.

• Orders can contain supplemental information that can be used in a sort or a search procedure. This extra information is called a Peg ID (which references data categories) or a Peg ID Suffix (which references order lines).
• Gross requirements can include the requirements created by parent orders, together with independent requirements created by the inventory level. References between these orders can be defined on the operational level.
• A priority code can be transferred along with the manufacturing order. This priority originates from the register for customer orders or from an end item orders and is used for internal prioritization such as when conducting automatic order scheduling. For more information refer to Order and Network Priority.
• Item and stock information can be transferred to Infor M3 SWB and associated with manufacturing orders (MO).
• For both planned and firm planned orders operation data is normally extracted from the standard routing register.
• For released orders operation data is normally extracted from the manufacturing order register.

Resource and Calendar Data

Resource and calendar data is used by Infor M3 SWB to define a model of the production environment and to control finite capacity scheduling. The resource capacity model contains this data:

• Work center resources
• Work centers
• Shift model days
• Shift pattern lines
• Non-working days
• Transit time matrix
• Setup time matrix
• Capacity adjustments
• Local parallel operations

See the section Internal Capacity Data to read more about the capacity data in Infor M3 SWB.

Parameters

Data can be transferred through parameter files. Most of the time this information is defined locally. Different types of parameters control the:

• System setup
• Rules used in planning, such as internal order priority calculations and multiple resource scheduling.

The types of parameter files used depend on which interface technology is being implemented. Parameter files are described in more detail in the sections devoted to each of the interface technologies.

Controlling File Locations

Infor M3 SWB controls the physical location of files through the use of environment variables that can have an assigned value.

You can use the predefined variable names in the table below to assign physical locations to single or groups of files. The Startup Command File, M3 APP.BAT for Windows controls the set up together with the PMINIT__.DAT file.

The following example of the start up file USMVXAPP11.BAT is located in the System directory:

ECHO OFF

The available environment variables are as follows:

Name	Description
PINI	Assigned to the PMINIT__.DAT control file.
PMER	Assigned to the PMERRO__.SKM file containing the panel definition for error and warning message panels.
PMGE	Assigned to the PMGENE__.SKM file containing the panel definition for general panels.
PMIN	Assigned to the PMINIT__.SKM file containing the panel definition for the initial dialog box.
PMMODUL	An environment parameter, that tells Infor M3 SWB which module to execute immediately after Startup. For example, if this environment variable is defined, then the Main module is omitted and the environment module is started automatically. It can be used to execute a batch function directly by specifying SET PMMODUL=BATC in the startup CMD file.
PMSP	Assigned to all spool files generated by Infor M3 SWB.
VERS	Defines the initial version of the data that Infor M3 SWB is working on when starting. Can be defined if the version differs from version 01. If the given version does not exist, then version 01 is loaded.

To change the physical location of the spool files, change the Startup Command File as follows:

SET PMSP=D:\PMSPOOL   Set the path for Spool files

You can also define the location of individual data files for a specific version by appending the version number to the 4-character environment variable. If you want to assign a different physical location to data files in new version 22, for example, you must insert this line in the Startup Command File:

SET DATA22=D:\PMTEST\DATA   Set the path for version 22

You can assign specific paths to individual files. You must change the PMINIT__.DAT file (the file in which the variable DATA is the default name assigned to all data files) to accomplish this. If you assign the new variable name DATX to the order header file, for example, you will must add this line to the Startup Command File:

SET DATX=D:\DIRORDH   Set the path for order header file

The file name is:

PMnameVV.xxx

where:

• "PM"       Defined in header for PMINIT__.DAT file.

• "name"   Names defined in PMINIT__.DAT.

• "VV"        Schedule version number.

• "xxx"

  • DAT:data and control files.
  • SPL:  spool files.
  • SKM:  panel controls.
  • HLP:  Help files.

Defining Environment Variables

Environment variables are defined in the PMINIT__.DAT file.  The following is an extract of the PMINIT__.DAT file located in the US\Control directory.
