TMA Link

Product Summary

The TMA Link creates a connection between Drawbase and the TMA series of applications, (SQL Server, SQLbase, and Oracle), allowing the user to input and query information from TMA while using Drawbase.
By using the TMA Link, you can easily relate TMA's database information to the Drawbase CAD graphics.

The TMA Link is available in both DPL (Drawbase Programming Language) and Visual Basic formats. 

Key Functions

TMA Security Check:
TMA Link will check to see if you have sufficient security rights to add Work Orders, Equipment, and Locations to TMA.


 

 


Run TMA:

Start TMA from within Drawbase.

Add/Update Equipment or Rooms:
Add object(s) and room(s) to TMA as equipment and location(s) by selecting individual objects in Drawbase or by selecting all objects from a specific form.

Add Work Order:
Add a Work Order in TMA by selecting an object or a room in Drawbase. This function also has the ability to optionally attach a Drawbase drawing as a location bitmap of the area relating to the Work Order.

Send a Work Order to a Queue for further review and approval.  Queued Work Orders can then be edited, deleted, or processed. 

 

 





Work Order numbers are taken directly from the next work order number in TMA.  Drop down lists are extracted from TMA for Work Order Type, Priority, and Reported By.

Search functions can be applied by using any form attribute to uniquely identify and locate a specific piece of equipment or room.
