Synchronizing equipment with features (ESRI)

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

To synchronize equipment records with features:

  1. Open ArcMap to an existing map, and then click .
  2. Specify this information:
    Layer
    Select the layer for which to view features without corresponding equipment records.
  3. Select the Consider only features selected on the map check box to only compare features that are selected on the map.
  4. Select the Consider only features with a GISOBJID check box to only compare features that reference a GISOBJID number.
    Note: Unselect Consider only equipment with a GISOBJID to compare features without a GISOBJID number, which enables you to create equipment records for existing features that were not previously integrated.
  5. Click View Discrepancies.
  6. Select the features for which you want to create corresponding equipment records.
    The system automatically selects all of the features. Remove individual features from the list by unselecting the line.
  7. Click Create Equipment. The system creates corresponding equipment records within Infor EAM.
    The system populates Result and Creation Date/Time and unselects all features for which corresponding equipment records were created.
    Note: If the system cannot create a corresponding equipment record for a selected feature, it displays the reason in Result. The feature remains selected.

    You must have insert privileges in Infor EAM to create an equipment record. Contact your system administrator for more information.

    The system assigns the feature’s existing GISOBJID number to the equipment record. If the feature does not have a GISOBJID number, the system automatically generates one.

    The system automatically populates the equipment record’s Layer, Location X, and Location Y.If the feature is not a point feature, the system automatically populates Location X and Location Y for its corresponding equipment record based on the center of the feature.
