Read Reference Data via “Open File“ Directly

RE_READ_ON_OPEN

* from Allevo version 2.9

The constant RE_READ_ON_OPEN is queried when opening an existing planning file (Menu |Open file| in Allevo). It has the same options as constant READ_ON_OPEN (see detailed description there).

Example:

Assuming a MultiPage Master is stored in offline mode every month: at the beginning of the next month, the column definitions are then shifted one month ahead. After reading the reference data, those column definitions are updated on the side of SAP. The parameters in the Excel file are, however, not. As a result, a different period is displayed in the header section of the Allevo Master than was set for this column in SAP. The constant RE_READ_ON_OPEN ensures that the relevant parameters are automatically updated on the side of Excel if the offline file is reintegrated in SAP.

See also constant FOPEN_READSAT to re-read single satellites when opening an existing Allevo planning file.
