Prioritizing Fixed Assets Management Scripts
Fixed Assets Management transactions and report generation processes are controlled by scheduled scripts and process records. The system uses a process management tool to control the scripts for a given process and to ensure the proper order of script execution. The tool uses a method where the scripts in a process are executed in a sequence. Other scripts, unrelated to a FAM process, may run in between the script sequence and interfere with the bundle's process execution. To ensure that FAM transaction processes are executed properly, you can set a higher priority level for FAM script deployments.
FAM scripts, by default, have a Standard Priority level.
Prerequisites
-
The Priority on the following script deployments must be set to High:
-
FAM Trigger Process SS (customdeploy_fam_triggerprocess_ss)
-
FAM Process Manager SS (customdeploy_fam_processmanager_ss)
-
-
The scheduled script that manages the process must be prioritized as well. For more information, see Background Processing of Fixed Assets.
The bundle update preference for most FAM scripts are set to Update Deployments. When the Fixed Assets Management SuiteApp is updated, the script priority that you set will be updated to the value in the source account. This issue is currently being addressed, and will be fixed in an upcoming release. Until the issue is resolved, you must prioritize the FAM scripts again after the SuiteApp is updated.
To set a priority for FAM scripts:
-
Go to Customization > Scripting > Script Deployment, and then click edit next to the record that you want to modify.
-
On the Script Deployment record, set the Priority field to High.
-
Click Save.
Repeat steps 1–3 for all scripts in the process that you want to prioritize. To view a list of scripts, go to Customization > Scripting > Scripts. Expand the filter on the Scripts page, and in the From Bundle list, select the ID of the latest FAM SuiteApp version.
