SubSchedules - External Events​

SubSchedules - Schedule Instance Property Update​

$PROPERTY:ADD,PropertyName,Value

  • For a Schedule Instance Property:

$PROPERTY:ADD,SI.PropertyName.Date.ScheduleName,Value

$PROPERTY:ADD,SI.PropertyName.[[$DATE]].PrimarySchedule_ContainerJob_ContainerJobInstanceProperty[SubScheduleName]_ContainerJob2_ContainerJob2Instance[SubSchedule2Name],Value

SubSchedules - Dropping Events into MSGIN​

  • SMA has many utilities that can update Properties via MSGIN passing Event parameters as Command Line arguments
  • Spaces in each parameter must be quoted or the program will be thrown off
  • Quotes are removed by the OS when passing parameters to the script
  • This can ruin quoted parameters when accounting for periods in Schedule Names
Examples:​

$PROPERTY:ADD,SI.PropertyName.[[$DATE]]."ScheduleName",Value

$PROPERTY:ADD,SI.File Path.[[$DATE]]."Test.Schedule 001",C:\Test\

  • If this Event is passed from the Command Line into a file to be processed by MSGIN, make sure that the quotes are not dropped
  • To do so, comment out the quotes:

$PROPERTY:ADD,SI.File Path.[[$DATE]].\"Test.Schedule 001\",C:\Test\

Unique Properties​

  • SSI - Pulls the Schedule Instance Property of the Master Schedule instead of a SubSchedule's Schedule Instance Property
  • SJI - Pulls the Job Instance Property of a Container Job controlling a SubSchedule Job
