AM51.1 - Item Update Adjust Interface Maint
**Form purpose
Use AM51.1 (Item Update Adjustment Interface Maint) to review and edit asset
item records imported into the Lawson Asset Item Interface file (AMASSETINV)
from a non-Lawson asset item file. Use this form to verify that your
information transferred to the Lawson environment correctly.
NOTE: This program is used to add items to existing assets and items, not to
interface new items.
**Prerequisites
The non-Lawson item file must be imported into AMASSETINV before you can
display the data and the assets for which you are adding items must also
exist.
**Process at a glance
1. Format the non-Lawson asset-item file you want to convert as a
comma-separated-value (CSV) file. The fields in each file must match exactly
the position, size, and type of the fields in AMASSETINV.
The file layouts for the Lawson interface files are available on the Web.
See your Lawson representative for more information.
2. Transfer the non-Lawson file to the target machine, using a transfer
utility program (such as the winptxfr or ftp command). When you transfer the
non-Lawson file, you may need to rename the file for use in the Lawson system.
For example, if you are transferring an asset file named Asset Item.csv from
your PC, you could use the following command:
winptxfr -u asset-item c:\\Data\\Asset Item.csv
where asset-item is the name you assign to the file in the Lawson
environment.
3. Load the transferred file into AMASSETINV, using an Import command. For
example, to load the asset-item file from the previous example, use this
command:
importdb productline AMASSETINV asset-item
where productline is the Lawson product line where your Asset Management
data is stored.
4. (This step) Display and edit the data in AMASSETINV, using Item Update
Adjust Interface Maint (AM51.1).
NOTE: You can also run Item Update Adjustment Interface Listing (AM251) to
list asset item records in the Asset Item interface file.
5. Run Item Update Adjustment Interface (AM551) to load the asset information
into the Asset Management application. Once asset item records are interfaced
successfully, they are deleted from the Lawson interface file and exist as
unreleased adjusted records in the Asset Management application.
**More help
Once you have interfaced asset data successfully, using AM551, the records are
deleted from AMASSETINV file and they exist in the Asset Management database
in an unreleased adjusted state. You can use Items (AM20.3 or AM21.3) to edit
and release the asset adjustments online, or Processing Release (AM170) to
release the asset adjustments in batch.
