490.1 | alternative to copying from Holland??? | SLUGER::DAVIDSON | Lenny Davidson N.E. South District MCS | Thu Feb 06 1997 16:18 | 15 |
| Well I believe the DataR product was the same one bragged about by
presenters of the "MCS on the Move" roadshow. I always try these beta
programs, and promote their useage, since many of the folks that create,
and update them work many hours for no monetary reward, but just to
help make things easier. However, I cannot feasilbly map a network
drive to \\utovanbrakel1\datarkit, and copy the files. I'm still
trying! I thought I would do a spool copy/batch job to VMS copy the one
install file to a local VMS node, but "network partner exited" is the
only response I've seen from HLFS00::DATAR:DATAR.ZIP. Doea anyone on
this side of the Atlantic have it available? If not I'll have to hang
out in the office for a couple hours to get the install files.
Not bitchin', just beggin'

490.2 | VMS pointer was wrong | IJSAPL::BRAKEL | For a FEW dollars more ... | Fri Feb 07 1997 06:31 | 18 |
| Sorry,
The VMS pointer to the file DATAR.ZIP was wrong in the document.
The correct one is: HLFS00::LAPTOP1:[DataR]
The IP address of the UTOVANBRAKEL1 is 16.197.240.2
Hope this works!

| DataR is a tool under development to be used in the WOW environment.
DataR is a FAST retrieval tools to on the following information:
* Parts
* Options
* SRS (Service Reference Sheets)
The Parts query can be done on Part number, Description or Vendor Part
number. The query will return the following information
- Stocking levels
- Vendor information
- Part pricing in local currency
- Equivalent parts
- Alternative parts
- Options in which the part occurs
The option query is done on the option description and will return the
following information.
- Option 2-5-2 and description
- Parts which occurs in this option, with stocking levels.
The SRS query must be done using keywords, This query will return a
list of SRS titels which forfill the query. You can either select more
keywords to detailise the query or just pick a SRS of the returned list.
Links between Parts, Options and SRS queries are provided. e,g, if
selected an option using the options query you can directly call the
related SRS.
The information will be held in a local (off-line) database on the
engineers Notebook. Updates will be done over the WOW infrastructure.
E.g. Stocking information will be updated daily.
The reason for keeping all the information in a local database is the
speed of retrieval at the customer site (you don't have to make a
connection to a server).
Currently available is the DataR client beta version with a database loaded
from the Dutch FLS logistic system. DataR will be field tested in
April, somewhere in Europe.
Countries considering to implement DataR are
UK
Holland
Germany
Belgium
Zwitserland
Sweden
Finland
France
Italy
Canada
Hong Kong
Japan
etc.

490.6 | I use it every day ! | HLFS00::EMPEL_W | Willem van Empel MCSD Gouda | Thu Mar 06 1997 01:15 | 11 |
| Just as a Field Engineer.
I am a DataR user, and I love it.
A customer tells me about his Prioris. It's a FR-880WW-AC.
Type it in DataR, and you get, Prioris HX590 32Mb 1 ch FW SCSI and
the partlisting.
Very handy with callscreening and on site.
Cheers,
Willem
