Hi,

Actually, the AT_HIER_NUM can only have 10 Characters. We plan to use this attribute to store the Function-Number. This is build like: nn.nn.nn.nn (11 Characters).

- How can I expand the Attribute

or

- What can I do else to number all my Functions according to their BusinessProcess/Process/SubProcess? Sure, I can number all the precedessors. But in Reporting, I have allways to lookup 'til the BusinessProcess

Thanks

Hi Dominik,

Create a user defined text attribute, which will allow you to store more characters.

Hi Amol,

Good idea, but I don't really like UD-Attributes, because I can not define an API-Name. So I have to use in each Report an entry in the String-Table and manage changes by hand (yes, rarely - but I don't have to forget).

Or is there a solution to add an API-Name to any user defined Method-Changes (Symbol, Attribute, Modeltype, etc?)

Regards,

Dominik

Hi Dominik!

Then work with UD-Attributes I use GUID to get attribute type number instead of using number  directly. It helps me awoid errors with spontaneously changing attribute type numbers. To get number from GUID I use next code:

var oArisMetaModel = ArisData.ActiveFilter();     
var nNumb = oArisMetaModel.UserDefinedAttributeTypeNum(sGUID);

Hope, this helps.
