PostgreSQL Server Statistics

Reference Contents > Optional Special User Functions > PostgreSQL Server Statistics

For PostgreSQL users only. As an standard Custom Feature you can use this window to examine PostgreSQL Statistics. To add this to your User menu go to File — Preferences — User Settings, choose Custom Features, enter a Section title for the menu, or one that already exists, and add a Window Class of wOptPgServerStats. After saving the settings you will find it under the User menu on the main menu bar.

For a full explanation of what you are seeing Google “PostgreSQL Statistics” and you can navigate to the PostgreSQL Documentation. The column headings of the lists are the column names of the various postgres statistic views listed in the documentation.

Note that in PostgreSQL-speak _tup_ in a column name stands for tuple. A tuple can be thought of as a row of table data. Due to the MVCC system PostgreSQL uses there can be many versions of an actual row of data steming from multiple updates of the data.

Field	Description
Database	The current database and drivers. It also provides an estimate of disk usage.
Help	Web address for PostgreSQL Documentation. You can select and copy to your browser.

Button	Action
Refresh	Refresh to the latest.
pg_hba.conf	Opens the pg_hba.conf file to control server connections. Opens the PostgreSQL pg_hba.conf File Edit window.

The window has 6 tab panes.

Activity
Database
Tables
Indexes
Sequences
Locks

Activity

The pg_stat_activity view will have one row per server process, showing information related to the current activity of that process.

Field	Description
List	SELECT * FROM pg_stat_activity
Query text	The query text of the selected activity.

Database

The pg_stat_database view will contain one row for each database in the cluster, showing database-wide statistics. Uniquly with this list you can see the changes from one Refresh to another and the rate of change per minute, giving you a measure of server loading.

Field	Description
List	SELECT * FROM pg_stat_database WHERE datname=?1

Tables

This is a combined list of pg_stat_user_tables and pg_statio_user_tables. The pg_stat_user_tables view will contain one row for each table in the current database (including TOAST tables), showing statistics about accesses to that specific table. The pg_statio_user_tables view will contain one row for each table, showing statistics about I/O on that specific table.

Field	Description
List	SELECT * FROM pg_stat_user_tables and pg_statio_user_tables

Indexes

This is a combined list of pg_stat_user_indexes and pg_statio_user_indexes. The pg_stat_user_indexes view will contain one row for each index in the current database, showing statistics about accesses to that specific index. pg_statio_user_indexes covers I/O statistics and comprises just idx_blks_read and idx_blks_hit.

Field	Description
List	SELECT * FROM pg_stat_user_indexes and pg_statio_user_indexes

Sequences

The pg_statio_all_sequences view will contain one row for each sequence in the current database, showing statistics about I/O on that specific sequence. A sequence is a auto-incrementing counter object within PostgreSQL. They are used in Caliach Vision to generate Row Sequence Numbers.

Field	Description
List	SELECT * FROM pg_statio_sequences

Locks

The view pg_locks provides access to information about the locks held by active processes within the database server. Documentaion on this can be found by Googleing PostgreSQL pg_locks.

Brendan Proctor — Wed, 27 May 2020 16:35:06 +0000

Product Costing Calculator

Reference Contents > Optional Special User Functions > Product Costing Calculator

This window is an optional feature that can be used specialised product costing. You can add it as a function to the User main menu by adding the class wOptProductCostCalc into the Custom Feature settings. It provides a printed output only. No data is changed or stored by this feature.

It may be useful in making ad hoc costing calculations for assembles based on the last price paid for materials and components and the current part master cost. You can also add additional items, descriptively setup as Standard Sales Texts, such as shipping, packaging, customs, etc..

You can change the currency and tha sales unit of measure so that the costs are shown in the desired currency and units.

Field	Description
Part number	Parts Master. Part number unique identifier. {PTMFILE.PTMPTNO char 18 Idx}
Stock Unit of Measure	Parts Master. Standard stock unit of measure. {PTMFILE.PTMSTUM char 6}
Description	Parts Master. Part description. {PTMFILE.PTMDESC char 30}

Alternative sales UoM multiplier	Enter a multiplier for the alternative sales unit of measure.
Standard sales price for the alternative sales UoM	The standard sales price calculated for the alternative sales unit of measure and in the currency.
Control: Cost on last	Check this option for the values (Cost/Sales UoM) to be based on Last part cost rather than New cost. This switches the Cost/Sales UoM from New to Last cost.
Control: Blow through multi-level	Check this option to blow down to purchased materials multi-level. It therefore ignores all sub-assembly production costs (labour, overheads, etc.).
Control: Apply purchase part quantity costs	Check this option to apply quantity cost breaks when available, otherwise last cost. If there is no purchase part row for the Preferred Supplier of the part, the part current costs are used. If there are multiple purchase part rows the record with the best performance ratings will be used. If those are equal the lowest last cost will be used.
Control: For quantity	A quantity of production that will be factored into the quantity pricing calculation. This is only used if the Apply purchase part quantity cost option is checked.
List of components	List of components used in the assembly listed above.

Optional Special User Functions: Special User Feature – Firm Allocation Analysis

Brendan Proctor — Wed, 27 May 2020 15:35:06 +0000

Special User Feature – Firm Allocation Analysis

Reference Contents > Optional Special User Functions > Special User Feature – Firm Allocation Analysis

This special user feature is available in open source form in OpenVision.lbs.

This option window, wOptFirmAllocClean, is available to be used as a Custom Feature which will operate along with the use of the optStockFirmAlloc option for firm allocation of multi-location stock on receipt. The allocation option only operates at the time of inward stock movement. This window can be used to identify free stock that is unallocated because it existed when the demand was created and also allocated stock for which there is now no longer any demand. It operates interactively with the Stock Control window and from that (double-click on the Projected quantity) the Part Process Analysis List window. With those windows open, clicking on an analysis list line will refresh the other windows.

Having performed the analysis: Click on a list line to load and trigger the Parts ScratchPad. Double-click to open the Stock Control window. Right-click on results list to print. Quarantined locations are ignored.

Button	Action
Analyse Stock	Click to scan all multi-location parts for appropriate firm allocations.
Analyse WO	Click to analyse multi-location parts in a selected WO kit for appropriate firm allocations.
Analyse PO	Click to analyse multi-location parts in a selected PO’s outwork kit(s) for appropriate firm allocations.
List	List of parts with allocation issues that may need attention. Click on a list line to load and trigger the Parts ScratchPad. Double-click to open the Stock Control window.

The list shows an Action column. This is provided for sorting purposes and to group suggested activities.

Number	Action
1	Allocated locations exist for which there is currently no need for the allocation (typically an order has been cancelled) or an excess quantity has been allocated (typically because an order has had its quantity reduced).
2	A full allocation can be made from float stock.
3	A full allocation can be made from other locations.
4	A partial allocation can be made from float stock.
5	A partial allocation can be made from other locations.
6	There is nothing available to allocate or any available has been suggested for allocation elsewhere.

Typical Operational Procedure

An appropriate procedure would probably do something like the
following:

Raise work orders, print normal kit lists and then run this allocation analysis.
Firm allocate items identified both physically and by re-location in the Stock Control window (pre-kitting). This avoids the need for any “bulk” kitting operation for many work orders.
Receive in other items from POs and WOs, which will be automatically located (firm allocated) by the system, and kit physically in relevant work order boxes at the same time.
Run Work Orders Available-to-Kit Analysis regularly to see which work orders can now be kitted, and kit (in Work Order Kit and Item Issue or Return window) as appropriate. Nothing should need to be kitted from a non-document location (everything should have been firm allocated and pre-kitted).
Periodically run the Firm Allocation Analysis to identify items that can perhaps be shuffled about due to new priorities, or freed up.

Optional Special User Functions: Special User Feature – Stock Group Adjustment

Brendan Proctor — Wed, 27 May 2020 16:35:06 +0000

Special User Feature – Stock Group Adjustment

Reference Contents > Optional Special User Functions > Special User Feature – Stock Group Adjustment

This special user feature is available in open source form in OpenVision.lbs.

This Special User Feature consists of 1 schema/table class, 3 window classes and 2 report classes.

Schema/Table: DYNFILE hold group quantity and other data.
Window: wOptLengthMaint is provided for creation and maintenance of Stock Group records. It is this class that needs to be entered in the Settings as a Special Function.
Window: wOptLengthPrint is provided for report printing and is opened by the Print button on the maintenance window.
Window: wOptLengthAdjust
is provided for in-process group quantity adjustment and is normally automatically opened from within the $PostStockTransaction method of oCustom1.
Report: rOptLengthList
Report: rOptLengthStatus

NOTE: Although the classes are all available in open source form in OpenVision.lbs, any customisation of them will inevitably lead to them diverging from the standard supported classes.

CUSTOM CAPABILITY: For the window to semi-automatically maintain group quantities, the $StockTransaction and $PostStockTransaction methods in oCustom1 requires the addition of special code. The following example code is appropriate for $StockTransaction:

If not(pos(pMoveType,'ABCDEFGHIJN')&(int(1000*pQtyIntoPhysical)<>0))
 Quit method kTrue
End If
If isclear(pPtmRow.PTMSEQ)
 Quit method kTrue
End If
If not(mid(PTMPTNO,1,1)='$')&(mid(PTMPTNO,4,1)<>'0')
 ;This IF logic determines which parts Group Lengths apply to.
 Quit method kTrue
End If
Calculate lRow as row(pQtyIntoPhysical,pPtmRow,pSthRow)
Do pPostTransList.$add('DYNFILE',lRow)
Quit method kTrue

With the following example code appropriate for $PostStockTransaction which will open the window for each movement encountered during the stock transaction (note that it a dangerous practise to have user entry within a serializable transaction):

If pPostTransList.[pLineNo].Name='DYNFILE'
 Calculate lRow as pPostTransList.[pLineNo].DataRow
 Do $windows.wOptLengthAdjust.$openonce('',kWindowCenter,lRow.C1,lRow.C2,lRow.C3)     ;; #F set kFalse if errors
End If

The window cannot be closed until an Ok is operated. When the window opens and no Group Lengths file record is found for the part, an error message will be presented and the window will be closed.

Field	Description
Part Number	Part Group Quantities. Part Number – inner join to PTMPTNO. {DYNFILE.DYNPTNO char 18}
Part Description	Parts Master. Part description. {PTMFILE.PTMDESC char 30}
Reference	Part Group Quantities. User Reference. {DYNFILE.DYNUSER char 10}

Physical Stock (after transaction)	Parts Master. Inventory physical quantity. {PTMFILE.PTMPHYQ number 3dp}
Group Units of Measure	Part Group Quantities. Group Unit of Measure (UoM). {DYNFILE.DYNUNIT char 6}
Group Multiplier	Part Group Quantities. Group UoM Multiplier. {DYNFILE.DYNMULT number 4dp}
Group Units	Part Group Quantities. Group Unit of Measure (UoM). {DYNFILE.DYNUNIT char 6}
Current Quantity	The current group quantities.

Optional Special User Functions: Special User Feature – Stock Group Maintenance

Brendan Proctor — Wed, 27 May 2020 16:35:06 +0000

Special User Feature – Stock Group Maintenance

Reference Contents > Optional Special User Functions > Special User Feature – Stock Group Maintenance

This special user feature is available in open source form in OpenVision.lbs.

This Special User Feature consists of 1 file class, 3 window classes and 2 report classes.

File: DYNFILE hold group quantity and other data.
Window: wOptLengthMaint is provided for creation and maintenance of Stock Group records. It is this class that needs to be entered in the Settings as a Special Function.
Window: wOptLengthPrint is provided for report printing and is opened by the Print button on the maintenance window.
Window: wOptLengthAdjust
is provided for in-process group quantity adjustment and is normally automatically opened from within the $StockTransaction method of oCustom1.
Report: rOptLengthList
Report: rOptLengthStatus

NOTE: Although the classes are all available in open source form in OpenVision.lbs, any customisation of them will inevitably lead to them diverging from the standard supported classes.

The feature enables you to maintain a separate parallel table of Group Unit Quantities for certain parts. For example, a metals distributor may want to record the number of lengths of bar in addition to the total weight or length of material. Up to 12 quantities can be maintained.

CUSTOM CAPABILITY: For the feature to semi-automatically maintain group quantities, the $StockTransaction method in oCustom1 requires the addition of special code. With this, the Stock Group Adjustment window will open each time a part stock quantity changes. See the Stock Group Adjustment window for details.

The window works interactively with the Parts Scratchpad and the BoM Listing window. With the Find function you can also locate a record using Keyword Search.

Optional Special User Functions: Special Contact and Link Function

Brendan Proctor — Wed, 27 May 2020 16:35:05 +0000

Special Contact and Link Function

Reference Contents > Optional Special User Functions > Special Contact and Link Function

Using this window you can exploit the optAdcCusAutoNew and optAdcSupAutoNew options to copy contacts and their document links to existing Customers and Suppliers.

Drag and Drop a selection of Customers or Suppliers from the Scratchpads to effect the duplication.

System Option	Function
optAdcCusAutoNew	A comma-delimited list of Contact Id numbers (ADCID), each time a new customer is created, a duplicate of those contacts are created for the new customer’s default address including associated document links. Telecoms are copied from new customer/contact.
optAdcSupAutoNew	As above, for new suppliers.

Normally these options are used to automatically apply a standard contact with document links to newly created customers/suppliers. For example a generic “Accounts Department” for invoices.

However, were you decide to apply this to existing customers/suppliers, there is no facility as standard to do this and the purpose of this window is to provide for that. To use it you must first add it to your settings as a Custom Function so that it is available from the User main menu. Having set up the options, you can now open the window and use drag-and-drop from the customer or supplier ScratchPad.

WARNING: Try it on one Customer/Supplier first and check the results, both the addition of the contact and the document links. The process will not add a contact where a contact already exists with the same description. Nor will document links be created where a similar link already exists.
