Hi Chon,

thanks for your reply.

If I leave the assetnum field blank the import preview display an error because the assetnum is required.

Thanks

You have to leave the field blank or null.

Hi Chon, I have try to insert &AUTOKEY& in the assetnum of my flatfile but didn’t work.
The new created asset have the assetnum equal to &AUTOKEY&.
The autonumbering of asset is just enable in maximo but he didn’t work with MIF.

Any idea?
Thanks

for this change you can apply the configuration change without entering admin mode as it is non-structural

Check and see if that field is restricted, if not make it restricted.

Hi Chon,

I figured out the solution, I need to remove the tag from the XML, now my problem is: how to do this without a user exit class? I’m using IFACETABLE and I can’t exclude this field.

Thanks

Hi Chon,
I have tried this with contracts, but it didn’t work.
When I send a message I receive an error about the required field CONTRACTNUM can’t be null.
Do you have any idea?
Thanks in advance

Yes, if you enable the AutoKey, it will work with MIF.

Can this autokey works with MIF? For example, I have a list of Assets without ASSETNUM and I want them to be auto generated when inserting into MAXIMO DB using MIF. Can it work like this? I tried but it didn’t work that way.
