Move Number Inventory Instances#

VOSS Automate provides an feature that can be used to move number inventory instances to a selected hierarchy. It is particularly useful to bulk load number inventory instances that need to be moved.

The feature is available as a view: view/move_data_ini that can be added manually as a menu item on an administrator menu layout if needed.

Note

Access Profile permissions have already been added for all administrator levels to create, read and export a bulk load template of this view.

Move a Number on the View#

To use move a number on the view:

  1. Select the Internal Number.

  2. Select the Move To Hierarchy to move the number to.

  3. Click Save to carry out the move operation.

Bulk Load#

More typically, the view can be used in a bulk load sheet. After exporting the view as a bulk load sheet, the exported sheet header row will be similar to the following:

entity: view/move_data_ini;
hierarchy: sys;
parallel: False;
parallel_transaction_limit: ;
template: ;
meta_prefix: $;
evaluate_macros: False

Columns are then available for:

  • Comment: to comment an entry if needed

  • Hierarchy Node ($hierarchy): for the source hierarchy

  • Action ($action): value is always add

  • Internal Number ($internal_number): for the number to move

  • Move To Hierarchy (move_to_hn): for the target hierarchy

The following image shows an example bulk load sheet:
