Description
Record Attribute Rule adds the history data saved for the currently selected source item to Rule History array points you create or select.
Notes
Add Record Attribute Rule to the end of any module where you use the Eliminate Sources Based on Rule function block to store information about the item that remains after that elimination.
Example
Eliminate Source by Rule is in a Resequence Block Module,
Place a Record Attribute Rule block between that block and the Resequence Range block at the end of that module.
Record Attribute Rule records only one item's history data to the specified points – the item at the range source head.
Where all item eliminations (by any and all methods) have been completed.
Insert another function block such as
Select Lowest Weight |
|
Select Source By Age |
before Record Attribute Rule to insure that the most appropriate item(s) are selected.
If you have criteria to determine which item should be selected in case of a tie, specify that criteria in an RSA function block inserted before the Select block.
Insert Record Attribute Rule.
Parameters
This function block has the following parameters:
Important: Select the same array points previously configured for the corresponding Eliminate Sources Based on Rule block you inserted earlier in this logic or output module.
Parameter |
Description |
|
Rule Type Array |
Text array point. Each element of the array contains one of the following rule types. |
|
|
G |
Grouping |
|
S |
Spacing |
|
B |
Blocking |
|
P |
Percentage |
Attribute Name Array |
Text array point. The names of the selected item's attributes are recorded to elements of this array. |
|
Attribute Value Array |
Text array point. The values of the selected item's respective attributes are recorded to elements of this array. |
|
|
(Grouping, Spacing and Blocking rules only) Integer (analog) array point. The actual number of items consecutively selected that have the same, or different, attribute name/value (depending on the grouping, spacing or blocking rule) is recorded to the respective element of this array. Note: Items selected using a percentage rule are also recorded, however this data is not currently used. |
|
(Grouping, Spacing and Blocking rules only) Integer (analog) array point. The actual number of matching items selected for the respective attribute name/value pair is recorded to the respective element of this array. |
||
Total Release Count |
(Percentage rules only) Integer (analog) point. Counter point stores and continues to increment the total number of items released. |
Eliminate Sources Based on Rule. |
|
Record selections and rule violations. |
