    Hi Dale,
    The EPDM offline has a field to control when to Add, Delete or  Change
    records at the routing header level (RTGHDR) or at operation level
    (RTGOPR).   In the past I did something
    very similar to your requirement and it worked pretty good.
    As you know, the offline load process will do all the database
    validations, so my suggestion is to use this option.
    What is the problem with to offline load...?
    Note:    If you don't want to use EPDM offline, then it should be as
    simple as copying the RTGHDR, RTGPOPR (replace the facilities) and
    create
    the corresponding Item process (ITMPRC).

    [MAPICS-L] Question on EPDM off-line loads - deletes and adds
    Hi group,
    We have two assembly lines, and we run the same products on either line,
    using primary or alternate routings.  We don't want to maintain all the
    routing records twice, once for each line.  We have the facilities in
    synch
    (ie, 70401 and 70601, 70402 and 70602, etc), so all the supporting stuff
    is
    in place.  The production process is identical on either line, same
    number
    of work centers, same rates, etc.
    What I want to do is allow Engineering to maintain only one set of
    routings, the primary routings, and then every night, in batch mode,
    delete
    all the alternate routings and re-add them through off-line load
    processing
    (with only the facility number changed).  I would greatly prefer he use
    canned MAPICS code/processes rather than write his own, to assure that
    everything is in synch for MAPICS (EPDM can be pretty complex in some
    areas.)
    It seems simple, but my programmer has been struggling with this for
    some
    time.   According to him, the jobs terminate at various points for
    various
    reasons, never the same.  He is of the opinion that the EPDM off-line
    load
    programs are not adequate for this process, and wants to write his own
    process, but I am hesitant to allow that.  MAPICS' off-line load
    processing
    should be adequate.
    Has anyone else out there done something like this?  As in, using EPDM
    off-line load after the initial load of data?
