What Can I Do At The Database Level??

•
•
Triggers and Stored Procedures
Schedule SQL Server Agent Jobs
Use SQL Mail To Send Dynamic E-mails
Use CribMaster SQL Rul Files
Copyright 2007– WinWare, Inc.
Why Do We Need To Do This
Functionality?
• CribMaster Currently Does Not Store Data The
Way You Need to See It or Report On It.
• I Have Unique Processes and or Rules That
CribMaster Currently Does Not Allow Through
Normal Application Functionality.
• I Need To Update CribMaster Based on Data
From Another System.
Copyright 2007– WinWare, Inc.
Scheduling and Storing Data With SQL
Server Jobs
• Issue – CribMaster Only Stores Dead Stock, Over
Stocked and Crib Value Analyzer Reports Based on
AltVendor.Cost But My Site Uses the CribMaster
Average Price Calculation.
• Issue – CribMaster Rolls Up data For Analyzer
Reports Weekly and Monthly But I Need Monthly
Only Data Only For Some Reports.
• Resolution – Using SQL Server Scheduled Jobs Roll Up
Additional Data In The CribStatistics Table.
Copyright 2007– WinWare, Inc.
Example SQL Scripts
• CribStatistics Type 100 = Weekly and monthly value by price
roll-up
• CribStatistics Type 200 = Weekly and monthly Dead Stock by
price roll-up (180 days)
• CribStatistics Type 300 = Weekly and monthly Over Stock by
price roll-up (12 Months)
• CribStatistics Type 201 = Weekly and monthly Dead Stock by
price roll-up (90 days)
• CribStatistics Type 101 = Monthly only value by price roll-up
• CribStatistics Type 202= Monthly only Dead Stock by price
roll-up (180 days)
• CribStatistics Type 301 = Monthly only Over Stock by price
roll-up (12 Months)

Example SQL Scripts Continued,
INSERT INTO CribStatistics
(StatisticsType, Crib, BinCount, StatisticsDate, StatisticsValue)
SELECT 100, STATION.Crib, COUNT(*), GetDate() , SUM(STATION.Quantity
* INVENTRY.Price)
FROM
STATION INNER JOIN INVENTRY ON STATION.Item =
INVENTRY.ItemNumber
GROUP BY STATION.Crib
_____________________________________________________
INSERT INTO CribStatistics
(StatisticsType, Crib, BinCount, StatisticsDate, StatisticsValue,
UDFStatisticsMonthDate)
SELECT 101, STATION.Crib, COUNT(*), Null , SUM(STATION.Quantity *
INVENTRY.Price) , GetDate()
FROM
STATION INNER JOIN INVENTRY ON STATION.Item =
INVENTRY.ItemNumber
GROUP BY STATION.Crib

Preventing Updates In CribMaster Using
Triggers
• Issue – A Client wanted To prevent Users From
Updating A Closed PO at the PODetail Level.
I.E. Changing the Qty, Promised Or Required
Dates…
• Resolution – We Placed a Trigger On the
PODetail Table Preventing Updates To Detail
When a PO Is in Closed Status.
Copyright 2007– WinWare, Inc.
The Trigger and Results From CribMaster
CREATE TRIGGER TRG_PODETAIL_PREVENTUPDATE
ON PODETAIL
FOR UPDATE
AS
IF EXISTS (select 1
from inserted a
, PO b
where a.TYPE = 0
and a.PONUMBER = b.PONUMBER
and b.POSTATUSNO = 1
)
BEGIN
ROLLBACK
RAISERROR ('YOU CANNOT UPDATE A CLOSED PO',16,1)
END

Using A Trigger On One SQL Server
Database to Update Another SQL Server
Database??
• Issue – Work Orders Are Created In Another
Application That Uses A SQL Server Database
And I want To Issue To Those Work Orders
(User Defined Field) In CribMaster.
• Resolution – Create A Trigger On the Work
Order Table Of the Other Application To
Update The CribMaster User1 Table
Copyright 2007– WinWare, Inc.
An Example Of a Solution Using Oracle
• Issue - The CribMaster Calculated Order Point and Order Qty
Are Not suited To My Business
• Resolution – Create a Trigger That Updates the CribMaster
Over Ride Order Point and Over Ride Order Qty based on my
Calculations

I Needed A
Filler Here
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TRG_STATION_CALCORDERQTYMIN
BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE
ON STATION
REFERENCING NEW AS NEW OLD AS OLD
FOR EACH ROW
DECLARE
hold_UDFVENDING CRIB.UDFVENDING%TYPE;
BEGIN
-- See if non-vending crib. All cribs assumed non-vending unless
-- explicitly flagged as vending (CRIB.UDFVENDING='YES')
BEGIN
SELECT NVL(UPPER(UDFVENDING), 'NO')
INTO hold_UDFVENDING
FROM CRIB
WHERE CRIB = :NEW.CRIB;
EXCEPTION
WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
hold_UDFVENDING := 'NO';
END;
IF hold_UDFVENDING <> 'YES' THEN -- Fire for non-vending cribs only
IF NVL(:NEW.MONTHLYUSAGE, 0) >= 0 THEN
:NEW.OVERRIDEORDERPOINT := CEIL(NVL(:NEW.MONTHLYUSAGE, 0) * 1.5);
END IF;
IF NVL(:NEW.BINQUANTITY, 0) >= 0 THEN
:NEW.OVERRIDEORDERQUANTITY :=
NVL(:NEW.MONTHLYUSAGE, 0) * 3
- NVL(:NEW.BINQUANTITY, 0);
IF (:NEW.OVERRIDEORDERQUANTITY < 0) THEN
:NEW.OVERRIDEORDERQUANTITY := 0;
END IF;
END IF;
END IF;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
-- Consider logging the error and then re-raise
RAISE;
END;

What Else Can I Do At The Database
Level??
• Issue – I want To make Sure the Cost Field Is
Always Populated When I Create A New Item
• Resolution – Since CribMaster Has No Option
To Enforce This Go To The Database And Set
That Field To Not Allow Nulls
» Note: All Items With A Supplier Must Have A Cost Before
You Can Set the Field To No Nulls

Dynamically Sending E-mail Using SQL
Mail
• Issue – Client Wants To send an Email To Users
or Supervisors That have Over Due Gauges
Checked Out
• Resolution – Use A Scheduled Stored Procedure
Job With SQL Mail To Auto Generate and Email The Notification
Copyright 2007– WinWare, Inc.
Don’t I Need Exchange Server To Send
SQL Mail??
The Answer Is No…..You use a POP3 Account and SMTP E-Mail
For SQL Mail
Advantages to using POP3 and SMTP for SQL MAIL and SQL
Agent Mail
• SMTP allows SQL Mail and SQL Agent mail to work with most firewall rules
since SMTP protocols normally are not blocked.
• Using POP3 and SMTP for SQL Mail and SQL Agent mail also provides all
the same functionality of using Exchange.
• Therefore this means no SQL Server mail functionality will be lost using
POP3 and SMTP as a mail solution for SQL Server.

And The Results….
• This Stored Procedure Is Available Upon Request

What Is an SQL Rul File?
• Staring With CribMaster 7.0 And Newer
CribMaster Import Files Can Invoke SQL Scripts
(Note: This Functionality Requires A Registry Update For Security reasons)
Examples
• rulSql - will execute the specified SQL
immediately in the rul file header (any rul file)
rulSql Delete From User1
Copyright 2007– WinWare, Inc.
What Is an SQL Rul File, Con’t?
• rulSqlFile - will execute the specified SQL File
immediately in the rul file header (any rul file)
rulSqlFile .\SqlFileName.Sql
• rulSqlRules will execute the specified SQL
statement for each row of data - Only E type
ruls will execute
Copyright 2007– WinWare, Inc.
An Example Of When You Can Use The
RulSQLRules?
rulSqlRules
<<YourFileName.csv
>>PODetail
START
Auto,E Update PODetail set UDFSalesOrder=%s Where
OriginalSeqNo=%s,MyPONumber,CMSEQ
Auto,E Update PODetail set Cost=%s Where OriginalSeqNo=%s,
MyNewPrice,CMSEQ
Auto,E Update PODetail set PROMISEDDATE={d '%s'} Where
OriginalSeqNo=%s, MYEXPECTEDDATE,CMSEQ

What Is an SQL Rul File, Con’t?
A Couple Of New Features:
• rulSqlAtEnd - Delete From JUNK // SQL to Execute
After all data is loaded You can have multiple of
these- valid for any rul file
• rulSqlFileAtEnd - .\SqlFileName.Sql // SQL File to
Execute at the End - Only One File Allowed - The File
Name

Does WinWare Charge For These Stored
Procedures And Triggers
• If The Trigger Is Not Complex and Can be
Written By A Support Tech No Fee is Charged
• Stored Procedures Are Generally More
Complex And Might Invoke A Programming Fee
We Aren’t Always looking For The Almighty
Your Success is Also a Success For WinWare…
