Creating a Job Order
The CREATE JOB ORDER window is launched when Create is clicked on the Job Orders page. The autogenerated ID value is incremented by 1 each time the window is launched.
To create the job order, accept the autogenerated job order ID, or enter your own, and then click OK to create the job order.
Mashups and Widgets
The PTC.Factory.Demo.CreateJobOrderMashup mashup defines the CREATE JOB ORDER window. This mashup uses the following widgets:
• A Label widget, which displays the name of the window.
• A TextBox widget, which allows entry of the job order ID. The value for this widget is autopopulated when the window is launched by the GenerateJobOrderID service.
• Button widgets for the OK and Cancel buttons. Clicking OK triggers the CreateJobOrders service.
Outputs
When the CreateJobOrders service completes, the UID of the newly created job order is passed to the mashup for the job order detail page.
Services
The mashup uses the following services from the PTC.Factory.Demo.JobOrderUtils Thing:
• CreateJobOrders—Creates a new job order with the provided ID.
• GenerateJobOrderID—Generates the ID value that is autopopulated in the CREATE JOB ORDER window. Iterates the generated ID by one, each time the CREATE JOB ORDER window is launched.
