This activity is used to verify or adjust object properties. Object properties are pre-defined settings that are imperative for the installation of IFS/Vehicle Information Management (IFS/VIM). It is recommended to examine property values after the installation is complete and change the values if necessary. Following is a list of all available properties in IFS/VIM.
Parameter | Description | Legal Values |
DEFAULT_OWNER | The default owner code to use,
|
All legal owners defined in IFS/Enterprise are valid. The default value is 000. |
UPD_VEH_COND_CODE | This controls the automatic update of the condition code of a vehicle, when a task is distributed on a serial. | TRUE (default value) FALSE |

ERROR_LOG_CLEANUP | The number of days before old items in the error log are to be removed. | Any positive number is valid. The default value is 5. |
MAINT_PLAN_HORIZON | The horizon (in years) to allow maintenance planning on a maintenance plan. This is used to validate intervals in the maintenance plan. | Any positive number is valid. The default value is 100. |

FUNC_LEVEL_INSTR_VEH | The number of levels to use in a function breakdown when an instruction is registered for a vehicle. | Any number between 0 and 3 is valid. The default value is 1. |
TASK_CALC_EVENTS | The number of events to create per maintenance code for a task calculation. | FIRST SEVERAL (default value) |
TASK_CALC_HORIZON | The horizon (in years) for the planned events from task calculation. This requires the value SEVERAL in the TASK_CALC_EVENTS parameter to have an effect. | Any positive number is valid. The default value is 5. |

OPER_LOG_SEV_EVENTS | Is it possible to perform an operational logging on an operational event more than once? | No Requirements (default value) Warning Not Allowed |
OPER_LOG_MAND_EVENTS | Is it possible to perform an operational logging without entering an operational event? | No Requirements (default value) Warning Mandatory |
DEFAULT_LOCATION | The default location code to use,
|
All legal location codes are valid. The default value is 000. |
FUNC_LEVEL_REPAIR | The required number of levels to use in a function breakdown when a fault repair (finish task) is reported. | Any number between 0 and 3 is valid. The default value is 1. |
FROM_TO_SERIAL_RANGE | The separator to use when assigning a serial number range (from - to) for a modification. | Any character is valid. Note: The character cannot be identical to the other property values for the SERIAL_RANGE separator. The default value is .. |
SEP_SERIAL_RANGE | The character to use when assigning more than one serial number range for a modification. | Any character is valid. Note: The character cannot be identical to the other property values for the SERIAL_RANGE separator. The default value is ; |
ALL_SERIAL_RANGE | The character to use when assigning all serials to a serial number range for a modification. | Any character is valid. Note: The character cannot be identical to the other property values for the SERIAL_RANGE separator. The default value is % |
PCM_DEFAULT_EMPLOYEE | The default employee for the work orders transferred from IFS/VIM. There is a special logic connected to the predefined values: "SYS" can be used directly without creating an employee. "*" (asterix) is replaced with the identity of the current user. | All legal employees (MSCOM) are valid. The default value is * |
VIM_COMPANY | The company used to find the currency of all the IFS/VIM costs. This is used to convert values if the work order currency is different, or when operating with several work order currencies. | Any positive number is valid. The default value is * |
LAST_DATE_LIMIT | The number of years (past) for which you are allowed to start operational loggings. | Any positive number is valid. The default value is 2. |
DEFAULT_HIST_LANG | The default language for storing part descriptions in VIM history records. | All legal language codes defined in IFS/Application Services. The default value is en. |
CONFIG_TEMPL_SETTING | The default value for configured in separate template when an entry is created in the serial structure template. | TRUE (default value) FALSE |
CREATE_WO_STRUCTURE | This determines if the option to create a work order structure when distributing tasks on a maintenance order should be selected automatically. | TRUE (default value) FALSE |
AUTO_FINISH_ORDER | Indicates whether the order should be finished when the last task is finished or canceled. | FALSE (default value) TRUE |
CHUNK_SIZE | The number of serials to be processed in one chunk when running the due calculation for the interval maintenance. | Any positive number is valid. The default value is 1000. |
CHUNKS_IN_PARALLEL | The number of chunks to be process in parallel when running the due calculation for interval maintenance. | Any positive number is valid. The default value is 1. |
