Working with RosettaNet PIPs

The PIPs tab shows the status of currently active and recently completed processes.

The processes in the list are ordered by start time with the oldest process first.

The Status column displays the process status. Possible values include Active (if currently active), or one of the completed states (Complete, Cancelled, or an error state)

  • Use the Status drop-down menu to filter the PIP entries displayed. By default, the filter is set to Any and all PIPs are displayed. If no entries match the filter, no PIP entries are displayed.
  • To cancel an active process, right-click an active PIP item and select Cancel from the drop-down menu.
  • To view process details, double-click the process item (or select Display from the right-click context menu). 

Filtering the PIP list

Use the Status drop-down menu to filter the PIP entries displayed. By default, the filter is set to Any and all PIP are displayed. If no entries match the filter, no PIP entries are displayed.

Working with RosettaNet Acknowledgments

The PIPs tab shows the status of currently active and recently completed processes.

  1. The processes in the list are ordered by start time with the oldest process first.
    The Status column displays the process status, which will be Active if currently active, or one of the completed states (Complete, Cancelled, or an error state).
  2. Use the Status drop down menu to filter the PIP entries displayed. By default, the filter is set to <Any> and all PIPs are displayed. If no entries match the filter, no PIP entries are displayed.
  3. If necessary, cancel an active process. Right click on an active PIP item and select Cancel from the drop-down menu.
  4. View process details. Double-click the process item or select Display from the right-click context menu. 

Filtering the RNIF acknowledgment list

Use the Status drop-down menu to filter the acknowledgment entries displayed. By default, the filter is set to <Any> and all acknowledgments are displayed. If no entries match the filter, no acknowledgment entries are displayed.

Archiving RNIF acknowledgments

You can manually archive acknowledgment files from the ACKs tab. The VersaLex application stores archived acknowledgment files asack.zip file in the RNIF\ack\archive directory.

  1. Hold down the Ctrl key and click the rows you wish to select. Alternatively, select a series of rows by holding down the Shift key and selecting the first and last row.  
  2. While still holding down the Ctrl or Shift key, right-click to display the menu.
  3. Release the Ctrl or Shift key and select Archive from the menu.
    Note: For the web UI, it is particularly important to release the Ctrl or Shift key prior to making the menu selection, as keeping it depressed could bring up another browser tab.

    The files are stored in compressed/zip format in the RNIF\ack\archive directory. Files included in the archive are removed from the RNIF\ack directory and the ACK are removed from the display.

    The VersaLex application also automatically archives ACKs after a specified number has been received. Set this value in the Archive Automatically After Maximum Receipts field on the Local Listener Advanced tab. See Specifying Local Listener advanced properties.
