Archibus Extensions for BUILDER™ SMS
Map Archibus Sites to Organizational Units
In Archibus, a site can host multiple organizational units; for example, one site can hold business divisions such as Imagining and Printing, Customer Service, Human Resources, and so on. Furthermore, an organizational unit-- for example, Europe Operations--can span over multiple sites. The table Archibus Site Organizational Units (site_org
) associates Archibus sites and organizational units.
Use the Assets / Enterprise Assets / Extensions for BUILDER SMS / Map Sites to Organizational Units (ab-def-site-org-map.axvw
) task to associate sites and organizational units.
- If BUILDER™ SMS is your primary asset inventory, use this task to review which Archibus sites are assigned to a specific organizational unit.
- If you build your asset inventory in Archibus, use this task to assign Archibus sites to organizational units.
To map a site to an organizational unit:
-
Navigate to Assets / Enterprise Assets / Extensions for BUILDER SMS / Map Sites to Organizational Units (
ab-def-site-org-map.axvw
).Select the desired organizational unit from the list in the left panel.
Sites already mapped for that organizational unit appear below.
In the example below, the organizational unit is GOV-B. The mapped site is ALBANY-N.
-
Click Add New next.
The right pane displays fields for making the mapping. The entry under Organization Code corresponds to the organizational unit selected on the left.
-
Complete Site Code with a value from the validating Sites table.
-
Click Save at the upper right.
The new site code appears under Site Organizational Units Mapping on the left.
Note: For Sybase projects, if the pattern value in the field org.hierarchy_ids exceeds 126 characters, hierarchical trees for organizational units do not display all levels. For example, if values for Organization Code equal 36, organizational trees display only the first four levels of the hierarchy. This limitation affects these views: View and Edit Organizational Units and Map Sites to Organizational Units.
