ION Actions examples for Supply Chain

Required fields before approval

Mandate that specific PO line attributes are populated before submitting for approval

{
  "enabled": true,
  "title": "Purchase line items must have a need date",
  "target": "PURCHASEORDERLINE",
  "eventType": "UPDATE",
  "ruleType": "VALIDATION",
  "errorState": "ALLOW",
  "context": "{ purchaseOrderLine(id: $id) { id needDate } }",
  "code": "if context.get('changes', {}).get('purchaseOrderLines', {}).get('status', {}).get('new') == 'requested' and context.get('purchaseOrderLine', {}).get('needDate') is None: raise ValidationError()"
}

Mandate that specific PO header (custom) attributes are populated before submitting for approval

{
            "enabled": true,
            "title": "Purchase requires a justification before it can be ordered"
            "target": "PURCHASEORDERLINE",
            "eventType": "UPDATE",
            "errorState": "ALLOW",
            "context": "{ purchaseOrderLine(id: $id) { purchaseOrder {id attributes {key value}}  } }",
            "code": "if context.get('changes', {}).get('purchaseOrderLines', {}).get('status', {}).get('new') == 'requested' and any(attribute.get('key') == 'PO Justification' and not attribute.get('value') for attribute in context['purchaseOrderLine'].get('purchaseOrder', {}).get('attributes', [])): raise ValidationError()"      
 }

Purchase Approvals

We used to rely on ION Actions to enforce purchase order approval levels, but we now have a first class method to do so that is easily understandable and maintained. Check that out here.

Other Example Rules:

Receipt line items must have a location

{
  "create_rule": {
    "title": "Receipt line items must have a location",
    "ruleType": "VALIDATION",
    "eventType": "CREATE",
    "target": "RECEIPTITEM",
    "code": "if context.get('receiptItem', {}).get('partInventory', {}).get('locationId') is None: raise ValidationError()",
    "context": "{ receiptItem(id: $id) { id partInventory{locationId} } }",
    "enabled": true
    }
}
    

Required fields for part creation

{
    "create_rule": {
    "title": "Required fields for part creation",
    "ruleType": "VALIDATION",
    "eventType": "CREATE",
    "target": "PART",
    "code": "if (context.get('part', {}).get('partType') == 'PART') and any([not context.get('part', {}).get('revision') == '', not context.get('part', {}).get('description') == '', not context.get('part', {}).get('trackingType') == '', not context.get('part', {}).get('sourcingStrategy') == '', not context.get('part', {}).get('unitOfMeasure') == '']): raise ValidationError()",
    "context": "{ part(id: $id) { id revision revisionScheme description trackingType sourcingStrategy partType unitOfMeasure { id } attributes { key value } } }",
    "enabled": false
    }
}
