MAM 7.6.1.2:

I have a custom WORKTYPE field in JOBPLAN. 

How can I automatically apply the JP work type when a user applies a JP to a WO?

You can create a custom attribute on job plan and then cross it over to WO. But you'll have to decide which one you want to win when you get into the PM scenario where you could have discrepancy between the PM and JOBPLAN. Most of the time when we've done something like this for customers, they wanted the PM to win so we had to ensure the job plan value wouldn't cross over in that scenario. This can be accomplished on the cross over domain by implementing a condition on the destination to see if it's a PM work order.

Subject: Custom WORKTYPE field in JP: Apply to WOs?

MAM 7.6.1.2:

I have a custom WORKTYPE field in JOBPLAN (since there isn't one in the table OOB). 

Reason:
I apply a pothole JP directly to WOs. That pothole JP always has the same work type: Corrective Maintenance. So it would make sense to put the work type in the JP. 

• I've noticed that PMs have a WORKYPE field, but that doesn't help me, because these WOs aren't created from PMs. They're created from SRs.

Question:
What would be the best way to automatically apply the JP work type.... when a user applies a JP to a WO?

Thanks.

This script seems to work:
(Attribute launch point on WORKORDER.JPNUM)

if mbo.isNull("WORKTYPE") and mbo.getString("JOBPLAN.CGWORKTYPE"):
    mbo.setValue("WORKTYPE", mbo.getString("JOBPLAN.CGWORKTYPE"))

"JOBPLAN." is an OOB relationship:
