AVEVA NET SPOOLER Breakdown Nodes

To view SPOOLER information in AVEVA NET, you need to add some extra Breakdown Node configurations to the AVEVA NET Portal. The example shown will extend the Default Asset Breakdown node, but the same principle can be used on any user-defined Breakdown Node’s.

If you have used the default AVEVA classifications as shown in Default System Classification of Items, you will have the Design items classified thus:

PIPE+Pipeline

…

ISOREG+WorkPack

SPLDRG+SpoolDrawing

SPOOL+Spool

FIELD+Weld

1. You will likely want to have a breakdown that will allow the user to expand the Workpack’s, to see what SpoolDrawing’s are associated with the Workpack. Then you will want to expand the SpoolDrawing’s to see the associated Pipeline’s, Spool’s and Weld’s, as shown here.

   +---Assets

   ¦   +---SpoolDrawings

   ¦   ¦   +---Pipelines

   ¦   ¦   +---Spools

   ¦   ¦   +---Welds

   ¦   ¦

   ¦   +---Workpacks

   ¦   +---SpoolDrawings

   ¦       +---Pipelines

   ¦       +---Spools

   ¦       +---Welds

2. To do this, you must have the role of Administrator within the AVEVA NET Portal. Then you will need to customize the Enterprise Explorer Web Part, details on how to do this can be found in the AVEVA NET Administration Guide. Under the Administrator functions, you will need to select the Configure Breakdown nodes...

3. Select the DefaultAssetBreakdown node which is the one that we are going to modify, and then in the section of the window Breakdown node expansion from instances add the following information

   For items of class Workpack use associations is a collection including.

   For items of class SpoolDrawing use associations is an assembly including and also is associated with.

Configure Breakdown Nodes

Save the node properties, and then save the settings. When the user goes back to the Portal the Asset breakdown node will expand as:
