JobOps Configurator – Instruction Text

After reading the help there is functionality that allows the addition of a [FEATURE.VALUE] function within the instruction text.  All works well except when using [FEATURE.VALUE] on a text field within the configurator.  If the value is a number field it works fine.  If the value is in a text field it returns a "0".

 

 

Instruction Text

Enter instruction text for the feature's option.  This will be the text copied to work ticket instead of the feature's instruction text if the option does not use the feature defaults.

Instruction text is meant for internal instructions and is copied to the work ticket's text on the step that the feature/option is created on or added to.  If the work ticket class assigned to the configuration does not allow instruction text (the work ticket class Extended Text parameter is set to No), the assigned text will not be available in the work ticket.  The maximum number of characters allowed is 255 (per feature or option code).

Instruction text can also contain insert codes, as listed below.  Insert codes must all be entered using capital letters.

[FEATURE.VALUE] or [FEATURE.OPTION] Copies the feature's selected option code to the work ticket's text.  Replace "FEATURE" with the feature's code.

[FEATURE.QTY] Copies the feature's captured numeric response to the work ticket's text.  Replace "FEATURE" with the feature's code.

[FEATURE.DESC] Copies the selected option code's description to the work ticket's text.  Replace "FEATURE" with the feature's code.

Instruction Text Example: The [DOOR.DESC] door has a [OPENING.DESC] and measures [WIDTH.QTY] X [HEIGHT.QTY].

Work Ticket Text Output: The PINE door has a RIGHT HAND OPENING and measures 34 X 65.

Re: JobOps Configurator – Instruction Text

Does anyone know why the text field return a "0" and not the correct value?
