Naming Convention

Mandark
 
  • Hi pdms guru's

    How can we change the naming convention for the spco's when adding new components to specs...and also i need the same to be applied while creting through catview. Can some one guide me to do this...

    Mandark.
  • SPCO name can be anything you decide but it has to be unique in the spec. you do not need it in paragon, but the catref must be what u you have in the paragon. eg

    HEADING
    TYPE       NAME     PBOR1 SHOP STYP  CATREF DETAIL MATXT CMPREF BLTREF
    DEFAULTS
      -           -        -       FALS      FLAR
    PCOM   */PWD-BSTR:100 4.00 FALS  FLAR  /PWD-BSTRNN /PWD-BSTR-D /ASTM-A516-GR70 =0 /SBFAMAM.L7



    in the above example /PWD-BSTR:100 is the spco name.


    but if you are loading old spec you can not change the spco name. you can only change any of the column contents.
  • correction
    The SPCO NAME is    */PWD-BSTR:100 (where * = Specname, PWD-BSTR = Itemcode & 100 is an additional suffix)

    You may change spco name as you wish in Paragon but it should include the specname and remain unique.
  • From the main menu you can select: Settings-->Naming...
    And then: Define Naming Rules...
    There are some examples (i.e. !!CE.prmown.namn & '/' & !!CE.catref.namn & '-' & !!CE.matxt.namn & '_' & !index) that you can copy and modify to your needings...

    pitch, thanks for the correction */ skipped me. on modifying spco, I do not know of pdms 12.  but in 11.6 I tried it severally with no success through specon.
    can you shed light on how it can be done through paragon using 11.6 sp4.

    thanks

    Dificult to modify not Knowing PML
    How many examples have you given?
    What do they mean?
  • [QUOTE=pitch;58727]Simples, Go To the SPECO you wish to rename and give new name
    /oldname NAME /newname[/QUOTE

    pitch Thanks for sharing

    Pitch, probably this is not for beginners...
    But believe me I am not a PML expert!
    What I have posted is just one naming rule for SPCO elements.
    If your CE is a SPCO:
    !!CE.prmown.namn will give you the name without the leading / of the primary owner of the SPCO. I.e. the name of the spec ( A150 for example)
    & stands for 'concatenate'
    '/' will produce just the / symbol
    !!CE.catref.namn will give you the name of the catref without the leading / i.e. AAPA200NN
    !!CE.matxt.namn will give you the name of the matref without the leading / i.e. ABB
    Then you have an index. i.e. 001, 002, 003, 004 etc etc
    So at the end you get: /A150/AAPA200NN-ABB_001

    Hope this can help...
